INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

WARNING

This unit can be installed and can work only in constantly ventilated rooms, according to the national rules in force.
For the gas cooker to work properly, it is necessary that sufficient air for gas combustion can flow naturally into the room. The airflow into the room must come directly through openings of external walls. These openings must have a free passage of at least 100cm² (one or more openings can be made).

Combustion Products Discharge

Gas cooking units must discharge combustion products through hoods directly connected to flues or outside. In case the hood can’t be installed, it is recommended to use an electric fan applied to the external wall or the window of the room, with the condition that openings to let air flow in the room are realized. This electric fan must be powerful enough to ensure in a kitchen an air replacement of 3 to 5 times its volume per hour.

INFORMATION: Upon completing the installation, check and make sure that all pipes and hoses are connected correctly. Always use soapy water to check the gas leaks. For safety reasons, we would advise you to inspect and change the rubber hose for the gas connection yearly.

REGULATING THE MINIMUM SETTING.

The following procedure is recommended:

• ignite the burner and leave it in operation at its rated flow rate for about 10 minutes;
• then turn the knob to the minimum setting;
• remove the knob, pulling it off the tap shaft;
• use a small screwdriver to regulate the minimum setting, turning clockwise to reduce the flame or anti-clockwise to increase it.

In normal taps, the regulating screw for adjusting the minimum setting is inside the rod. In taps with valves, the regulating screw is on the body of the tap itself. After any replacement or adjustments, reassemble all parts carefully to restore the original functions.

OVEN BURNERS

REGULATING THE MINIMUM SETTING (oven burner)

• ignite the burner and turn the knob to the maximum temperature;
• allow the oven to warm up for at least 10 minutes;
• remove the knob from the thermostat rod and use a small screwdriver to adjust the by-pass screw;
• turn clockwise to reduce the flame or anti-clockwise to increase. The flame must be short and stable, must withstand any draughts and closing of the oven door, and must not blowback.

CHILD SAFETY

• This appliance has been designed for use by adults. Take care, therefore that children do not attempt to play with it.
• The appliance will become hot during operation and can remain hot for a long time after being switched off.
• Supervise children and pay attention that they do not touch surfaces or remain in the vicinity of the appliance when in use or when not completely cooled.

USING COOKER FOR THE FIRST TIME

We recommend that before you cook in your new cooker you heat the oven to 180℃for 2hrs to run in your new oven. After the oven cools wipe it out with hot water and a mild detergent. We also recommend cleaning the racks and shelves before use. When using the cooker for the first time you may notice the following:

DURING USE

• Ensure good ventilation of the room, keep adequate natural ventilation, or install an extractor hood with a discharge tube.
•  In case of doubt ask the installer for advice.
• Supply the appliance with the type of gas stamped on the relevant label situated near the gas connection tube.
• Ensure that the oven grids are inserted correctly. (See instructions as below.)
• The appliance is heavy, move it carefully.
• To facilitate ignition, light the burners before placing pans on the grid. Check that the flame is regular.

USING THE GAS HOB BURNERS

INFORMATION: Make sure that burners are always in position and located correctly.

Control knobs on the gas burners

The knobs for the gas burners of the cooker are found on the control panel. The regulating knobs should be turned in an anti-clockwise direction until the small flame symbol, and vice versa for the larger flame symbol.

Ignition of the hob gas burners

To light up the burner, keep pushing the ignition button as indicated by the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the maximum, and hold it for 3 to 5 seconds.

• The ignition will spark and ignite the burner. At this position, the gas supply is at its maximum and the flame is also at its maximum.
• You can reduce the flame size by turning the knob in an anti-clockwise direction to achieve your requirements.
• Should the burner fail to light up, turn the knob to its original position and try again.
• Your burner flame should be blue.

Air adjustment of the burner body

The mixing ratio of LPG and air is important to provide complete combustion of gas and to obtain a blue flame.

USING THE GAS OVEN

• Manual ignition of the Oven burner
  Open the oven door, then push and turn the oven knob in an anti-clockwise direction to the maximum position, introduce a small flame or spark lighter to the small ignition hole located in the front of the oven burner cover on the bottom of your oven.
• Manual ignition of the Grill burner
  Open the oven door, then push and turn the oven knob in an anticlockwise direction to the maximum position and hold a flame near the gas grill burner holes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY

Do not slam the oven door when closing.

• Gently close the oven door, and then check if the burner is lighted by looking through the window at the ignition hole. If the flame has been extinguished, immediately re-light the oven.
• After a few minutes, check the temperature and adjust the oven control knob if necessary, to obtain the required level.

FAN OVEN

• cakes (soft and thick)
• large quantities of foods
• cooking various dishes simultaneously

Characteristics of fan cooking

• heat is provided from all directions
• cooking is possible on several shelves
• high moisture removal
• thawing is possible with or without heat emission.

USING THE OVEN LIGHT

• For gas ovens, the light is controlled by a push switch on the control panel.
• For an electric oven, this light continuously illuminates the oven when in use.
• The light switch is on the function selector.
• The light can be used while cooking or cleaning the oven.

TIPS FOR OVEN COOKING

For baking cakes

• Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes before use.
• Do not open the oven door when baking. The jet of cold air will block the raising block the rising process of some cakes, pastries, and soufflés.
• To check if your cake is baked, insert a toothpick into the mixture; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Wait until at least 3/4 of the cooking time has passed before doing this check.

As a general rule remember that

A dish that is well-cooked on the outside but not sufficiently cooked inside would have required a lower temperature and longer cooking time. On the contrary, a “dry” texture would have required a shorter time and higher cooking temperature.

cooking meat

• Meat to be cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kilogram to avoid becoming too dry. If you want to roast with a good color, use very little oil.
• If the piece of meat is lean, use oil or butter or a little of both.
• Butter or oil on the other hand unnecessary if the piece is a strip of fat. If the piece has a strip of fat on one side only, put it in the oven with this side upwards:
• When melting the fat will grease the lower side sufficiently.

For cooking fish

• Cook small fish from start to finish at a high temperature. Cook medium-sized
• fish initially at a high temperature and then gradually lower the temperature.
• Cook large fish at a moderate temperature from start to finish.

For Grilling

• The following types of meat are suitable for grilling. Mostly meat or offal cut in slices or pieces of various sizes, but not very thick, poultry cut in half and flattened, fish, some vegetables (e.g Courgettes, aubergines, tomatoes, etc.), skewers of meat or fish, and seafood.
