VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations
concerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases.
Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window,
or more ecient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is tted.
CHOOSING SUITABLE SURROUNDINGS
The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural ow of air so that
the gas can burn (in compliance with applicable local regulations).
The ow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the outside walls
with a free area of at least 100 cm
2
(or refer to applicable local regulations).
The openings should be near the oor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for
combustion products and must be made so that they cannot be blocked from either the
inside or the outside.
When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent
room which is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bed room or a danger area (in
compliance with applicable local regulations).
In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air.
DISCHARGING PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION
Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products
of combustion of the gas appliance to be discharged (g. 1.4).
If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the
window; the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the
total volume of the kitchen (g. 1.5).
The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described
under the heading “Choosing suitable surroundings”.

repeat the operation.
Fig. 2.4
CHOICE OF THE BURNER
On the control panel, near every knob
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
The suitable burner must be chosen
according to the diameter and the capacity
used.
The burners and pans must be used in
accordance with the following instructions:
DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY
BE USED ON THE BURNERS
BURNERS MINIMUM MAXIMUM
Auxiliary 12 cm (*)
14 cm
Rapid 22 cm 26 cm
do not use pans with concave or
convex bases
(*) with grill for small cookware: minimum
diameter 6 cm (only for the models supplied
with grill for small pans)
It is important that the diameter of the pot
be suitable to the potentiality of the burner
so as not to compromise the high output
of the burners and therefore energy waste.
A small pot on a large burner does not give
you a boiling point in a shorter amount of
time since the capacity of heat absorption
of a liquid mass depends on the volume
and the surface of the pot.
CAUTION: Make sure the pans are central
to the burner for maximum stability and
greater eciency.
Make sure the pans are not in contact with
the control knobs, otherwise the ame
could overheat the knobs and permanently
damage them.
AUXILIARY GRATE FOR SMALL
PANS (Optional)
This grate is to be placed on top of the
(smaller) auxiliary burner when using small
diameter pans, in order to prevent them
from tipping over.

non-abrasive products.
• Dry preferably with a microbre or soft cloth.
If acid substances such as lemon juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc. are left on the
enamel for a long time they will etch it, making it opaque.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
3
Important: The manufacturer declines all liability for possible damage caused by
the use of unsuitable products to clean the appliance.
Attention! The appliance gets very hot, mainly around the cooking areas. It is very
important that children are not left alone in the kitchen when you are cooking.
Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus
make it unsafe.

STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS
Stainless steel parts must be rinsed with
water and dried with a soft and clean cloth.
For persistent dirt, use specic non-
abrasive products available commercially
or a little hot vinegar.
Note: Continuous use may cause a
change in the glaze around the burners,
corresponding to the areas exposed to
the heat.
PAINTED PARTS AND SILKSCREEN
PRINTED SURFACES
Clean using an appropriate product. Always
dry thoroughly.
IMPORTANT: these parts must be cleaned
very carefully to avoid scratching and
abrasion.
You are advised to use a soft cloth and
neutral soap.
CAUTION: Do not use abrasive
substances or non-neutral detergents
as these will irreparably damage the
surface.
GAS TAPS
• Do not let cleaning products come into
contact with the valves.
• Periodic lubrication of the gas taps
must be carried out by specialist
personnel only.
• In the event of operating faults in the
gas taps, call the Service Department.
CONTROL KNOB
The control knobs may be removed for
cleaning but care should be taken not to
damage the seal.
BURNERS AND PAN SUPPORTS
These parts must be cleaned using a
sponge and soapy water or other suitable
non-abrasive products. Dry with a soft
cloth.
Warning! Not dishwasher safe.
If left on the surface for a length of time,
acidic substances such as lemon juice,
tomato sauces and passata, vinegar and
other similar products will damage the
surface and dull its shine.
After cleaning, they must be repositioned
properly (g. 3.3).
It is very important to check that the burner
ame spreader and the cap have been
correctly positioned. Failure to do so can
cause serious problems.
In the models with safety device, check that
the probe “T” (gs. 3.1) next to each burner
is always clean to ensure correct operation
of the safety valves.
Check that the electrode “S” (
gs. 3.1
)
next
to each burner
is always clean to ensure
trouble-free sparking.
Both the probe and ignition plug must
be very carefully cleaned.
Note: To avoid damage to the electric
ignition do not use it when the burners
are not in place.
CORRECT REPLACEMENT OF THE
AUXILIARY AND RAPID BURNERS
It is very important to check that the burner
ame spreader “F” and the cap “C” have
been correctly positioned (see gs. 3.1 and
3.2) Failure to do so can cause serious
problems.
Note: Continuous use may cause a
change in the glaze around the burners
and grids, corresponding to the areas
exposed to the heat. This is a natural
phenomenon and does not prevent the
parts from working properly.
