If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check that the burner ring and its cap are correctly positioned. Extinguishing of burners Turn the knob clockwise to mark «

Do not put anything on the hob that is liable to melt. Always remove any spillage from the surface of the lid before opening, and the appliance should be allowed to cool before closing the lid. After using the cooker, the lid MUST NOT be closed until the hob and oven are completely cold.10 Selecting the Correct burner Above every knob there is a symbol for the corresponding burner. For good cooking results, always choose pans, which correctly fit to the diameter of the burner used (see figs). Choose thick, flat bottom pots. We recommend the flame is lowered as soon as the liquid starts boiling. For a correct ignition always keep the burner ring and the spark plugs clean. The following diameter pans can be used: Good use

Accessories delivered with the appliance The following accessories are supplied with your appliance:

• shelf for placing dishes on The dish should be put in the middle of the shelf to balance the weight.

• a roasting tray It is used to collect juice; when cooking in it, place it on the shelf 2 from low. If you do not use the roasting tray, remove it from the oven.

• a backing tray Aluminized steel In addition to the accessories supplied we recommend you only use heatproof dishes/pans (according to the manufacturer’s instructions). Storage compartment The storage compartment is located underneath the oven cavity. During cooking the storage compartment may become hot if the oven is in use for a long period of time. Flammable materials such as oven gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be stored in the drawer.

Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also become hot, therefore care should be taken when removing these items from the compartment whilst the oven is in use or still hot.11 Advice for use Oven cooking

• Turn off your oven 5 minutes before the foreseen cooking time you will save power, the accumulated heat will allow to end cooking;

• The thickness, the conductibility and the color of pot influences the culinary results;

• When cooking, certain dishes increase in volume, choose the pot so that above the raw mixture remain enough place;

• For preventing fat dripping when roasting use tall rim pans proportional to the piece to be roasted;

• Prick the skin of poultry and the sausage with a fork before cooking to avoid its blowing up;

• Between the dish and the oven grid could be put an aluminium foil but not covering all the grid;

• Use glass heat resisting pans for crispy and soufflés;

• Add some fat before finishing the cooking. Never line any part of the oven with aluminium foil. It would result in an accumulation of heat which might damage the cooking results and also damage the enamel. The cover has to be opened when using the oven. Influence of the pots on oven cooking results You have to know that:

• The aluminium, the terracotta pots diminish the browning bellow and maintains the humidity of the meals. We advice to use it for pastry, roast meat.

• The enameled cast iron, the tinned pots, the glass and the heat-proof porcelain, the pots with non-sticky interior and colored exterior, increase the browning bellow and dries the meals. We suggest to use them for pies and all other crispy cooking that has to be colored bellow and above. Cooking on the hob Choose always the right pot, proportional to the burner used. In case you use a large bottom pot, put it slight backwards on the plate, so that its bottom should not outrun the front of the enameled hob, thus avoiding flame exceeding and overheating of front panel. Before covering make sure the hob is cooled, otherwise the cover could be damaged.12 Maintenance and cleaning The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan. Before cleaning, ensure all control knobs are in the OFF position, and the appliance has cooled completely. Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the electricity supply.

Cleaning materials Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check that they are suitable and that the manufacturer recommends their use. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaner the oven and hobs. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided. External cleaning Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. In the case of stainless steel parts, you may use commercially available stainless steel cleaners with care. These also provide a protective film against finger marks. To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following:

• Household detergent and bleaches

• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non stick saucepans

• Bath/Sink stain removers Oven Cavity The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner. Hob After every use wipe with a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added, avoiding any leakage through the holes of the hob. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. To remove more stubborn stains, wet and leave to dissolve, do not scratch and avoid the use of abrasive or caustic products that could damage the enamel. Burners The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burners caps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well-moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove. After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.13 Removing the Oven Door

1. Open the door completely.

2. Turn the two locking levers (1) on the hinge
