Before cooking for the first time, carefully

wash the oven accessories.

The oven will work only if the time of the

day has been set.

Heating the empty oven

Before first use, the oven should be heated

without food. During this time, an unpleasant

odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

1. Switch the oven function control knob to

conventional cooking

2. Set the thermostat control knob to max-

imum

3. Open a window for ventilation

4. Allow the oven to run empty for approxi-

mately 45 minutes

This procedure should be repeated with the

full grill function

and fan cooking function

for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Once this operation is carried out, let the

oven cool down, then clean the oven

cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm

water to which a little mild washing-up

liquid has been added.

Heating the hotplate

When using the hob for the first time, it is im-

portant to note that the plate may smoke a

little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour

when used for the first time. This is quite nor-

mal and will disappear after a few minutes.

Helpful hints and tips

Using the gas hob

Start your cooking with a big flame by turning

the knob to the symbol

. Then adjust the

flame as necessary.

The outside of the flame is much hotter than

its inside (nucleus). Accordingly , the top of

the flame should lick the bottom of the pan.

Excessive flames mean a waste of gas.

In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do

not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames

lick the bottom and spread the heat all over

the surface.

No special pans are required for gas

burners. However, thin walled pans

transmit the heat to the food more quick-

ly than thick-walled ones.

Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the

pan's bottom, the food may only be partially

heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir

the food many times.

A thick pan bottom prevents partial over-

heating as it allows sufficient thermic com-

pensation.

Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow

pans are more suitable than narrow and

deep ones as they allow a faster heating.

Cooking is not quickened by placing narrow

pans on wide burners. The result is just a

waste of gas. For a proper usage, place small

pans on small burners and large pans on

large burners.

Remember to cover pans to reduce gas

consumption.

Using the hotplate

Saucepans suitable for use on solid hotplate

should have several characteristics:

• they should be heavy duty

• they should fit the heat area exactly, or be

slightly larger for efficient use, NEVER

smaller

• they should have a flat base to ensure

good contact with the plate

This is particularly important when using

pans for high temperature frying or pressure

cooking.

Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liq-

uids being split onto the plates.

Never leave the plates on without a pan on

them or with an empty pan on them.

For best results we advise you to initially

regulate the switch to rapid to accelerate

the heating of the plate and then turn the

switch to the position most suitable for

the food to be cooked.
