Using the hob
Lighting the burners
For each BURNER knob there is a complete ring
showing the strength of the flame for the relevant
burner.
To light one of the burners on the hob:
1. Bring a flame or gas lighter close to the burner.
2. Press the BURNER knob and turn it in an
anticlockwise direction so that it is pointing to the
maximum flame setting
E
.
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
C
, the maximum setting
E
or any position in
between the two.
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.
To identify the type of burner, please refer to the
diagrams contained in the “Burner and nozzle
specifications”.
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.

For the minimum to maximum settings turn the knob
counter clockwise from “Off”.
To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise until it
stops (corresponding again with setting •).
!
The oven is fitted with a safety device and it is
therefore necessary to hold the OVEN control knob
down for approximately 6 seconds*.
!
If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off
the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before
attempting to relight the oven.
Lower compartment
There is a compartment
underneath the oven
that may be used to
store oven accessories
or deep dishes. To open
the door pull it
downwards (
see
figure).
!
The internal surfaces of the compartment (where
present) may become hot.
!
Do not place flammable materials in the lower oven
compartment.
