In models with electronic programmer, before using the oven, check that the display is showing the

symbol.

In models with analogue clock and timer knob, locate on the symbol.

7.1 Precautions and General Advice

When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated to the maximum temperature (260°C for electric oven and 275° for gas oven) for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells. After an interruption in the electricity supply, the programmer display flashes at regular intervals,

showing . For setting instructions, see point "8. ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER”.

Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials compliant with directive 89/109/EEC of 21/12/88 and relevant national regulations.

WARNING: the gas oven's door must be open when lit. The oven is fitted with a safety system which cuts out burner ignition if the door is closed. If you mistakenly attempt to light the burner with the door closed, open the door and wait a few moments before trying again.

To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside the oven, open the door in two stages: hold it half-open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it completely. If you have to carry out any procedures on foods, leave the door open for as short a time as possible to prevent a drop in the oven temperature which will impair the cooking results.

7.2 Using the gas oven

7.2.1Lighting the burner by hand

Completely open the oven door and turn the thermostat knob anti- clockwise. Place a lit match close to the end of the flame pipe A in the centre of the bottom of the oven and press the thermostat knob. Once the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up and check that the burner has lit properly through the inspection hole B. The cooking temperature is set by turning the knob clockwise to the value required, between 50° and 275°C.

If the burner accidentally goes out, turn the knob to the off ()position and wait at least one minute before trying to relight it.
