User´s Guide for Gas Oven Oven functions LOWER BURNER Heat only comes from the lower part. Ideal for roasts. This setting can be used with any cuts of meat, regardless of size.

LOWER BURNER WITH FAN

This distributes the heat coming from the lower burner. Suitable for roasts and baking. The fan spreads the heat evenly throughout the inside of the oven to reduce cooking time and tem- perature. DEFROSTING This function is suitable for slowly defrosting food. In particular those that are consumed without the need for heating, for example creams, pastries, cakes, pies etc. CAUTION: The oven door must be closed during any type of cooking operation. OVEN SWITCH-OFF GRILL Toasting and browning. This setting allows the surface to be browned without affecting the in- side of the food.

• Open the oven door fully.

• Press and turn the thermostat dial anti-clock- wise to maximum temperature. By holding the dial pressed, the micro switch located behind it will create a series of sparks in the spark plug that will cause the burner to light.

• Once the burner is lit, close the door very carefully.

• Hold the dial pressed for 10 seconds to allow the thermocouple located in the burner to heat up and automatically maintain the flame lit (observe in the slots at the bottom of the oven).

• If after approximately 10 seconds the burner does not light, stop and wait for at least one minute before trying to light it again (always keeping the door open).

• Once the burner is lit, turn the thermostat dial to the desired level.

• Insert the tray at a medium height for best results.

• When cooking is finished, turn off the burner by turning the thermostat dial clockwise to zero.

• If for any reason the flame goes out, do not try to re-light the burner for at least one min- ute. ElECTRIC GRIll USE Hold and turn the thermostat dial clockwise to the specified position (grill). It is advisable to heat the grill for at least 5 min- utes before introducing the food. Place the food to be grilled on the suitable oven grid or in a tray with low sides. The oven grid should be placed on the highest support (de- pending on the size of the food to be cooked) with the tray directly below it to collect dripping fat. Depending on the type of food (e.g. red meat, fish, white meat, etc.), the food will need to be turned it so that both sides are exposed to the infrared rays. Cooking with the grill should not exceed 30 minutes. CaUTIoN: The grill will not work when the gas oven function is selected.34 User´s Guide for Gas Oven SELECTING FUNCTIONS
