Start-up and use

! 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.

Starting the oven

This knob is used not only to select the different oven modes, but also to

choose the right cooking temperature for various foods from among the

temperatures shown on the knob itself (the range is from 140°C to 240°C

inclusive). The electronic ignition device of the oven is built into the control

knob. To light the oven burner, press the OVEN knob in as far as possible and

turn it anti-clockwise, setting it to position

The oven is equipped with a safety device. After lighting the burner allow the

gas to circulate until the safety thermocouple is heated by keeping the OVEN

knob pressed in for about 6 seconds.

! The electronic ignition device of the oven burner must not be activated for

more than 15 seconds. If the burner fails to light after 15 seconds, stop pressing

the OVEN knob, open the oven door and wait for at least one minute before

you try to light the burner again.

The cooking temperature is selected by matching the desired temperature with

the reference mark on the control panel; the complete range of temperatures

is shown below:

The oven will automatically reach the temperature set, and the thermostat,

which is controlled by the knob, will keep the temperature constant.

Switching the oven on manually

In the event of a power failure, the oven burner can be lit manually:

1. Open the oven door.

The oven is equipped with a safety device. After lighting the burner allow the

gas to circulate until the safety thermocouple is heated by keeping the OVEN

knob pressed in for about 6 seconds.

3. Once the burner is lit, shut the oven door.

to the off position, open the oven door and wait for at least one minute before

trying to light the burner again.

The GRILL knob

Your oven is equipped with an electric grill. The extremely high and direct

temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats

and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also

highly recommended for dishes that require a high surface temperature:

beef steaks, veal, rib steak, fillets, hamburgers etc...

Some examples of how the grill may be used are included in the "Practical

Cooking Advice" section.

! When using the grill, the oven door must be kept shut.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven - this could result in

damage to the enamel coating.

! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models

are fitted with a cooling fan that blows air out between the control panel and

the oven door.

! Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the

oven has cooled down sufficiently.
