3.3 Using the hob
All the appliance’s control and monitoring
devices are located together on the front
panel. The burner controlled by each knob
is shown next to the knob. The appliance is
equipped with an electronic ignition device.
Simply press the knob and turn it
counterclockwise to the maximum flame
symbol, until the burner ignites. If the burner
does not light in the first 15 seconds, turn the
knob to and wait 60 seconds before
trying again. After lighting, keep the knob
pressed in 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. Keep the knob pressed in
longer.
Correct positioning of the flame-
spreader crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure
that the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
positioned in their seats with their respective
burner caps. Make sure that the holes 1 in
the flame-spreader crowns are aligned with
the igniters 3 and thermocouples 2.
Practical tips for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise
gas consumption, use pans with lids and of
suitable size for the burner, so that the
flames do not reach up the sides of the pan.
Once the contents come to the boil, turn
down the flame far enough to ensure that
the liquid does not boil over.
In case of an accidental switching
off, a safety device will be tripped,
cutting off the gas supply, even if
the gas cock is open. Return the
knob to and wait at least 60
seconds before lighting it again.

Functions list
Ensure that the programmer clock
shows the cooking duration
symbol , otherwise it will not
be possible to turn on the oven.
Press the keys and at the
same time to reset the programmer
clock.
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 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.
Fan + lower element
The combination of the fan with just
the lower heating element allows
cooking to be completed more
rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for
finishing off the cooking of foods
which are already well-cooked on
the surface, but not inside, which
therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Fan assisted
The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures
consistent cooking even with
complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits
and cakes, even when
simultaneously cooked on several
levels. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 2nd and
4th runners).

Fan with round heating element
The combination of the fan and the
round heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the
oven) allows you to cook different
foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures
and same type of cooking. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and even
distribution of heat. It will be
possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours
mingling.
Eco
This function is particularly suitable
for cooking on a single shelf with
low energy consumption.
Ideal for cooking meat, fish and
vegetables. It is not recommended
for leavened foods.
To obtain maximum energy savings
and reduce cooking times, it is
recommended to place food in the
oven without preheating.
When using the ECO function,
avoid opening the door during
cooking.
Cooking (and preheating) times
are longer with the ECO function.
Vapour Clean
This function makes cleaning easier
using the steam produced by a little
quantity of water poured onto the
appropriate groove placed on the
bottom. (see chapter “Cleaning and
maintenance”)

3.7 Cooking advice
General advice
Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
For the same total weight, cooking time
will be greater for cooking a whole
piece than when it is cut into smaller
pieces.
Advice for cooking meat
Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it
needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill
Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
background
Use
24
When using the Fan with grill function,
we recommend that you preheat the
oven before grilling.
We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
With the Grill function, we recommend
that you turn the temperature knob to the
maximum value to optimise cooking.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.
The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
When cooking on multiple levels, food
should ideally be positioned on the
second and fourth shelves; increase
cooking time by a few minutes and only
used fan functions.
To 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.
The cooking time for meringues and
choux pastry will vary depending on the
size.
Advice for defrosting and proving
Place frozen foods without their
packaging in a lidless container on the
first shelf of the oven.
Avoid overlapping the food.
To defrost meat, use the rack placed on
the second level and a tray on the first
level. In this way, the liquid from the
defrosting food drains away from the
food.
Bread and fruit, if divided into pieces, will
take the same amount of time to defrost,
regardless of the total weight and
quantity.
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.
To save energy
Stop cooking a few minutes before the
time normally used. Cooking will
continue for the remaining minutes with
the heat which has accumulated inside
the oven.
Reduce any opening of the door to a
minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
Keep the inside of the appliance clean at
all times.
• (Where fitted) When it is not being used,
remove the pizza stone from the base of
the oven.

4 Cleaning and maintenance
4.1 Instructions
4.2 Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition,
they should be cleaned regularly after use.
Let them cool first.
Ordinary daily cleaning
Always use specific products only that do
not contain abrasives or chlorine-based
acids.
Pour the product onto a damp cloth and
wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry
with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Food stains or residues
Do not use steel sponges and sharp
scrapers, as they will damage the surfaces.
Use normal, non-abrasive products and a
wooden or plastic tool, if necessary. Rinse
thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a
microfibre cloth.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such
as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for
too long, they might damage the enamel
lining of the oven.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing
chlorine, ammonia or bleach on parts
made of steel or that have metallic
surface finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickel-
or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents (e.g. scouring powders, stain
removers and metallic sponges) on
glass parts.
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials
or sharp metal scrapers.
• Do not wash the removable
components such as the hob grids,
flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
in a dishwasher.
We recommend the use of
cleaning products distributed by
the manufacturer.
After cleaning, dry the appliance
thoroughly to prevent water or
detergent drips from interfering
with its operation or creating
unsightly marks.
background
Cleaning and maintenance
27
EN
4.3 Cleaning the hob
Knobs
The knobs should be cleaned with a soft
cloth dampened with warm water, then
dried carefully. They can be removed by
pulling them out of their housing.
Cooking hob grids
Remove the grids and clean them in
lukewarm water and non-abrasive
detergent. Make sure to remove any
encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and
return them to the hob.
Flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader
crowns and the burner caps can be
removed. Wash them in hot water and non-
abrasive detergent. Carefully remove any
encrustation, then wait until they are
perfectly dry. Refit the flame-spreader
crowns making sure that they are correctly
positioned in their housings with their
respective burner caps.
Igniters and thermocouples
For correct operation the igniters and
thermocouples must always be perfectly
clean. Check them frequently and clean
them with a damp cloth if necessary.
Remove any dry residues with a wooden
toothpick or a needle.
Do not use aggressive products
containing alcohol or products for
cleaning steel and glass when
cleaning the knobs, as these
products could cause permanent
damage.
The continuous contact between
the grids and the flame can cause
modifications to the enamel over
time in those parts exposed to
heat. This is a completely natural
phenomenon which has no effect
on the operation of this
component.
background

Vapour Clean
Preliminary operations
Before starting the Vapor Clean cycle:
• Completely remove all accessories from
inside the oven. The upper guard can be
left inside the oven.
• Pour approx. 40 cc of water onto the
bottom of the oven. Make sure it does
not overflow out of the cavity.
• Spray a water and washing up liquid
solution inside the oven using a spray
nozzle. Direct the spray against the side
walls, upwards, downwards and
towards the deflector.
• Close the door.
Vapor Clean is an assisted
cleaning procedure which
facilitates the removal of dirt.
Thanks to this process, it is possible
to clean the inside of the oven very
easily. The dirt residues are
softened by the heat and water
vapour for easier removal
afterwards.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Remove any food residues or large spills
from previous cooking operations from
the inside of the oven.
• Carry out assisted oven cleaning
operations only when the oven is cold.
We recommend spraying approx.
20 times at the most.
