INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

HOB OPERATION

The burners differ in size and power. Choose the most appropriate one for the diameter of the cookware being used.

Each burner can be regulated with the corresonding control knob "M" by using one of the following settings:

Off

High flame

Low flame

The symbols near the knobs show the position of the

relative burner on the hob. The burners are fitted with automatic ignition and thermocouple safety device, which automatically cuts off the gas from the burner in a few seconds if the flame accidentally goes out during operation.

Ignite a burner

To ignite a burner, proceed as follows:

•turn the relative knob counter-clockwise until the pointer is on the high-flame symbol;

•press the knob down fully and activate the automatic gas ignition by pushing at the same time the button "P" (marked with the symbol );

•keep the knob pressed down for about 10 seconds with the flame lit to allow the safety thermocouple to be heated;

•release the knob, checking that the flame is stable. If it is not, repeat the operation.

For minimum power, turn the knob towards the low flame symbol. Intermediate positions are possible by putting the knob anywhere between the high and the low flame symbol. To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise to the off position "" .

Important:

•Do not activate the automatic ignition device for more than 15 consecutive seconds.

•Difficulty in ignition is sometimes due to air inside the gas duct.

•If a burner flame accidentally goes out, the gas continues to exit for a few moments before the safety device activates. Turn the control knob to the off position and do not attempt ignition again for at least 1 minute, thereby letting the gas disperse, which could otherwise be a danger.

•When the equipment is not in operation, check that the knobs are in the off position "" .

Using the burners

To obtain maximum efficiency from the burners, it is advisable to use only pans with a diameter that is suitable for the burner being used, so that the flame does not extend beyond the pan base (see following table).

Burner	Diameter of the pan in cm.
A Auxiliary	from 6 to 14
B Semi-rapid	from 15 to 20
C Rapid	from 24 to 30
D Triple ring

When a liquid starts boiling, it is advisable to turn the flame down just enough to keep the liquid simmering.

The hob is fitted with a pan reducing support "R" , which should only be used on the auxiliary burner "A"

ELECTRIC OVEN (mod. 9507 XE)

The maxi-oven gives four combinations of heating elements; so the most suitable type of cooking for each dish may therefore be chosen, with convincing results.

By turning the knob of the selector switch "H" marked

with the symbol , different cooking functions are obtained, as shown in the following table:

Symbol		Function	Power
			(240V)
0	0)	Off	-
	1)	Top + Bottom heating	2350 W
		elements
	2)	Bottom heating element	1300 W
	3)	Top heating element	1050 W
	4)	Grill heating element	2000 W

After having selected the heat source, put the thermostat

knob "N" (marked with the symbol ) to the temperature required.

•For normal cooking (roasts, biscuits, etc.) in conventional

mode use the function (hot above+below).

Only put the food to be cooked into the oven when it has reached the selected temperature and preferably use just one shelf for cooking.

•To provide heat only to the bottom or the top part of the

dishes, turn the selector to the position (hot below)

or (hot above);

•Grill operation: a high heat output is used for grilling, so that the surface of the food is immediately browned; this is particularly indicated for meats which should remain tender inside.

To grill, turn the selector knob "H" to the position (grill),

During grilling, do not set the thermostat knob to over 200 °C and keep the oven door closed.
