IGNITION OF THE OVEN BURNER

The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature.

The gas delivery to the oven burner is controlled by a two way thermostatic tap (oven and broil burners) with flame-failure device.

To light the oven burner operate as follows:

1) Open the oven door to its full extent.

WARNING: Risk of explosion! The oven door must be open during this opera- tion.

2)Lightly press and turn the thermostat knob anti-clockwise (fig. 3.2) to max position

3)Press the knob right down to prime the electric ignition. Keep the knob pressed.

In case of power cut, press the knob and immediately approach a lighted match to the opening “A” (fig. 3.3).

Never continue this operation for more than 15 seconds. If the burner has still not ignited, wait for about 1 minute prior to repeating the ignition.

4)Wait about 10/15 seconds after the burner lighting before releasing the knob (time of priming of the valve).

5)Close the oven door slowly and adjust the burner according to the power required.

If the flame extinguishes for any reason, the safety valve will automatically shut off the

gas supply to the burner.
To re-light the burner, first turn the oven control knob to	position, wait for at least

1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.

Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

OVEN COOKING

Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.

For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired tempera- ture.

Check the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate the stored heat.
