2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
maximum flame setting -.
3. Adjust the intensity of the flame to the desired
level by turning the BURNER knob in an
anticlockwise direction. This may be the minimum
setting +, the maximum setting - or any position in
between the two.
If the appliance is fitted with
an electronic lighting device*
(see figure), press the ignition
button, marked with the

BURNER knob down and turn
it in an anticlockwise direction,
towards the maximum flame setting, until the burner

Practical advice on using the burners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed,
it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a
flat base are used. They should also be suited to the
size of the burner.
Start-up and use
Burner ø Cookware diameter (cm)
Fast (R) 24 - 26
Semi Fast (S) 16 - 20
Auxiliary (A) 10 - 14
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle
specifications”.
! On the models supplied with a reducer shelf,
remember that this should be used only for the
auxiliary burner when you use casserole dishes with a
diameter under 12 cm.
Using the oven
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a
slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film
from the sides of the appliance.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.
Lighting the oven
To light the oven burner, bring
a flame or gas lighter close to
opening F (see figure) and
press the OVEN control knob
while turning it in an
anticlockwise direction until it
reaches the MAX position.
If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting
device*, press the ignition button, marked with the
symbol
, then hold the OVEN control knob and turn
it in an anticlockwise direction, towards the MAX
position, until the burner is lit. If, after 15 seconds, the
burner is still not alight, release the knob, open the
oven door and wait for at least 1 minute before trying
to light it again. If there is no electricity the burner may
be lit using a flame or a lighter, as described above.
