During cooking, the door should be opened as little as possible to avoid heat loss, and excessive fuel consumption.

￿To ignite the oven gas burner:

1.Press the Gas Oven control knob, turn it to 240 and wait for the flame to come on. This may take 10-15 seconds. Do not release the knob until the burner ignites. It is possible to check the flame through the holes in the bottom of the oven.

2.Upon ignition, keep the knob pressed for about 5/10 seconds, then release it and turn it to the required setting.

￿Iseconds:f the oven burner does not light even after 15

Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed on the oven base.

Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
