CORRECT USE OF THE TRIPLE RING AND DUAL BURNER
(figs.2.6a-2.6b)
Theflat-bottomedpansaretobeplaceddirectlyontothepan-support.
When using a WOKyou need to placethe supplied stand inthe burner to avoidany
faultyoperationofthetriple-ringanddualburner(figs.2.6a-2.6b).
WARNING: The wok stand MUST be correctly placed as indicated in figure 2.6b;
the bigger supporting areas “A” must be placed on the vertical prongs only (rear
and front).
When correctly positioned, it must sit flat and stable on the standard pan support
and must not rotate.
IMPORTANT:
Thespecialgrilleforwokpans(fig.2.6b)MUST BE PLACED ONLYoverthepan-rest
forthetripleringanddualburner.

During a semi-automatic or
automatic oven cooking program,
once completed the programming
procedure the oven lamp/s will be lit
until the end of the cooking program.
This means that, in case of delayed
cooking start, the oven lamp/s will
remain always lit.
In addition, if a fan assisted semi-
automatic or automatic oven cooking
program is set, further to the oven
lamp/s also the oven fan motor (the
motor inside the oven cavity) may be
operating (together with the cooling
fan motor) before the start of the
cooking program; this is possible if
the oven or cooktop has been used
previously and the range is still hot/
