15 - Selecting the Oven Mode
EN
Lighting your gas oven
To turn on the gas oven, push in the thermostat knob to activate
the spark generator. Then, keeping the knob pushed in, turn
counter-clockwise for the Bake mode (past the 275°F or 295°F
position depending on the model) or clockwise for Broil Mode
and hold in for a few seconds. When starting the gas oven, the
ignitor continuing to fire for a few seconds after releasing the
knob is not an indication that the burner is not lit.
The ignitor will continue to spark until the flame heats up the
temperature sensor which will then allow continuous flow of
gas through the safety valve.
You can tell that the oven is lit by checking for flame visually:
• through the small holes situated in the base of the oven
(Bake Mode)
• on the broiler mounted on the ceiling of the oven cavity
(Broil Mode).
Bake Temperature Control
The temperature control knob serves to set the desired oven
temperature and is equipped with a safety valve. When the
oven is in operation the ON light is illuminated.
To turn on the bottom burner, push the temperature control
knob and turn it counterclockwise to the desired temperature.
The minimum position corresponds to an oven temperature of:
36" = 275°F (135°C)
The control knob has stop in the minimum position.
The maximum position corresponds to an oven temperature of
36" = 550°F (290°C)
and is obtained when the knob is turned fully counterclockwise.
WARNING
If, when turning the thermostat knob and it does not appear
to function properly, turn off the gas supply to the oven and
call the nearest service center.

Broil
To turn on the broiler, press and turn the knob clockwise to the
broil position.
WARNING
When using the broiler accessible parts may get hot, keep
children at a safe distance.
Convection Mode Benefits
The convection fan function turned on together with the strong
heat coming from the bottom burner makes it possible to cook
foods more evenly and delicately than with the bottom burner
alone.
Cooking is faster than in a traditional oven. The system is
suitable for cooking foods of different types (fish, meat etc) on
a number of levels.
Pre-heating is not necessary when using convection modes but
is still recommended for baking.
With this convection cooking method, you can operate the
oven in the normal way and follow the instructions in recipe
books.
The food to be cooked should preferably be placed on the
middle shelf of the oven.
WARNING
Prolonged use of gas appliances produces heat and humidity
in the kitchen. This may make additional ventilation such as
opening a window or more efficient ventilation necessary,
for example by boosting the level of mechanical ventilation
where present (suction hood).
