Practical advice on using the burners
For the burners to work in the most efficient way
possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed, it
is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a flat
base are used. They should also be suited to the size of
the burner.

diagrams contained in the "Burner and nozzle
specifications".
Using the oven
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty
oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature
for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well
ventilated before switching the oven off and opening
the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly
unpleasant odour caused by protective substances
used during the manufacturing process burning away.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven;
this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.
, then
Only use position 1 in the oven when cooking with the
rotisserie spit.
Lighting the oven
If, after 15 seconds, the burner is still not alight, release
the knob, open the oven door and wait for at least 1
minute before trying to light it again.
! The oven is fitted with a safety device and it is
therefore necessary to hold the OVEN control knob
down for approximately 6 seconds.
! If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the
burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting
to relight the oven.
Adjusting the temperature
To set the desired cooking temperature, turn the
OVEN control knob in an anticlockwise direction.
Temperatures are displayed on the control panel and
may vary between MIN (140°C) and MAX (250°C).
Once the set temperature has been reached, the oven
will keep it constant by using its thermostat.
