General information on cooking

Risk of fire by overheated oil!

When you heat oil, do not leave it unattended.

Never try to extinguish the fire with water! When oil has caught fire, immediately cover the pot or pan with a lid. Switch off the hob if safe to do so and phone the fire service.

- Ensure handles of pans cannot accidentally be caught or knocked and do not get hot by adjacent heating zones. Avoid pans that are unstable and easily tipped. Pans that are too heavy to move easily when filled can also be a hazard. Only use flat bottomed pots or pans.

- Use pans which have sufficient capacity for the amount of food being cooked so they don't boil over and cause unnecessary cleaning.

Do not place lids on the burners. Always position pans centrally over the burners. When transferring pans from one burner to another always lift the pans do not slide them.

Cooking with gas

- The size of the pan and the size of the gas flame should match each other. Adjust the gas flames so that they do not go beyond the bottom of the pan always place

the pan onto the pan support in a central position.

How to use hobs

1 Normal burner 18-20 cm
2 Auxiliary burner 12-18 cm
3 Rapid burner 22-24 cm
4 Normal burner 18-20 cm is list of advised diameter of pots to be used on related burners.

The large flame symbol corresponds to the highest cooking power, the small flame symbol corresponds to the lowest cooking power. In the off position (top) the gas supply to the burner is turned off.

Ignite the gas burners

The burners are ignited with the hob control knobs.

1. Keep hob control knob pressed.
   » A spark ignites at the plate.

2. Turn anticlockwise to the large flame symbol.
   » The emanating gas is lit.

3. Adjust to the desired cooking power.

Switch off the gas burners

Turn burner control knob to off position (top).

Flame failure device (model dependant)

3D rendering of a circular mechanical component with a central flat plate and mounting base (no text or symbols visible)

In case of any flame failure for any reasons in the top burners, the flame failure device immediately cuts off the gas flow.

- Turn the knob clockwise direction by pressing and wait for its ignition.

- Keep the knob at pressed position for 3-5 seconds after you see the flame around the burner.

- Repeat the sequence of operations if the flame does not ignite. After you release the knob, if the ignition does not continue repeat the same process by keeping the knob pressed for 15 seconds.

Risk of deflagration incase of unburned gas!

Do not press the knob for longer than 15 seconds if there was no ignition.

Wait for one minute and then repeat the ignition process.

How to operate the oven

General information on baking, roasting and grilling

Risk of scalding by hot steam! Take care when opening the oven door as steam may escape.

Tips for baking

• Use non-stick coated appropriate metal plates or aluminum containers or heat-resistant silicone moulds.
  • Make best use of the space on the rack.
• It is recommended to place the baking mould in the middle of the rack.
• Select the correct shelf position before turning the oven or grill on - don't move oven shelves when hot.
• Keep the oven door closed.

Tips for roasting

• Seasoning with lemon juice and black pepper will improve the cooking performance when cooking a whole chicken, turkey or a large piece of meat.
• Meat with bones takes about 15 to 30 minutes longer before it is cooked than a roast of the same size without bones.
• You should calculate about 4 to 5 minutes cooking time per centimeter height of the meat.
• Let meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time. The juice is better distributed all over the roast and does not run out when the meat is cut.

Tips for grilling

Grilling is ideal for cooking meat, fish and poultry and will achieve a nice brown surface without it drying out too much. Flat pieces, meat skewers and sausages are particularly suited for grilling as are vegetables with a high water content such as tomatoes and onions.

• Distribute the pieces to be grilled on the wire shelf.
• If the grilling is on the wire shelf, locate a dripping pan under it in order to collect the fat.
• Add some water in the dripping pan for easy cleaning.
