6. USING THE COOKING HOB

6.1 General warnings and advice

SMEG C6GMXA8 - General warnings and advice - 1

Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps.

6.2 Lighting the hob burners

All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are placed together on the front panel. The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic lighter. Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum flame symbol until the burner lights. If the burner does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to "0" and wait 60 seconds before trying again. After lighting, keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: in this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently.

Wait a few moments and repeat the operation keeping the knob pressed for longer.

SMEG C6GMXA8 - Lighting the hob burners - 1

SMEG C6GMXA8 - Lighting the hob burners - 2

If the burners should go out accidentally, a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60 seconds before trying to light the burner again.

6.3 Practical hints for using the hob burners

For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption: use pans with lids and of a suitable size for the burner, so that the flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph "6.4 Pan diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil over. If any liquid does boil over or spill, remove the excess from the hob.

To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddles must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms.

If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

ECO

The ECO symbol indicates which function gives the least energy consumption.

SMEG C6GMXA8 - ECO - 1

STATIC:

As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static or thermal radiation cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.

SMEG C6GMXA8 - STATIC: - 1

SMEG C6GMXA8 - STATIC: - 2

BOTTOM:

The heat coming just from the bottom allows to complete the cooking of foods that require a longer basic cooking time, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas. This symbol also includes the cleaning function, see "9.6 VAPOR CLEAN: assisted oven cleaning (on some models only)".

SMEG C6GMXA8 - BOTTOM: - 1

8.1 Cooking advice and instructions

8.1.1 General advice

  • We recommend preheating the oven before putting the food in. Place the food in the oven only once the cooking light is off.
  • For cooking on several levels, we recommend using a fan-assisted function to achieve uniform cooking at all heights.
  • In general, it is not possible to shorten the cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
  • While cooking desserts or vegetables, excessive condensation may form on the glass. In order to avoid this, open the door very carefully a couple of times while cooking.
  • For rapid preheating use a fan-assisted function, then select the required function.

8.1.2 Advice for cooking meat

  • Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
  • We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it. Alternatively, simply press on the roast with a spoon: if it is hard it is ready, if not, it needs another few minutes cooking.

8.1.3 Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits

  • Use dark metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.
  • The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
  • Check whether the dessert is cooked right through: at the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
  • If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10^ C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.

8.1.4 Advice for defrosting and proving

  • We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first runner of the oven.
  • The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.
  • Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping.
  • When defrosting meat, we recommend using a rack positioned on the second runner with the food on it and a tray positioned on the first runner. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
  • The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
  • For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the oven.

8.1.5 Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan-assisted grill

  • Using the Grill function 📄, meat can be grilled even when it is put into the oven cold; preheating is recommended if you wish to change the effect of the cooking.
  • With the Fan-assisted grill function 📋, however, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
