compliance with the norms. The air flow from the
adjoining room to the one to be ventilated may pass
freely through permanent apertures with a cross
section at least equal to that indicated above. These
apertures may also be obtained by increasing the gap
between the door and the floor. If an electric fan is
used for extracting the combustion products, the
ventilation aperture must be increased in relation to its
maximum performance. The electric fan should have a
sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly exchange of
air equal to 3 ÷ 5 times the volume of the kitchen.
Prolonged, intensive use of the appliance may require
extra ventilation, e.g. an open window or a more
efficient ventilation system by increasing the extraction
power of the electric fan if installed. Liquid petroleum
gas descends towards the floor as it is heavier than
air. Apertures in the outside walls in rooms containing
LPG cylinders should therefore be at floor level, in
order to allow any gas from leaks to be expelled. Do
not store LPG cylinders (even when empty) in
the standards in force, which must not exceed 2000
mm in length.
Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket
(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced. Upon
completion of installation, check the gas circuit, the
internal connections and the taps for leaks using a
soapy solution (never a flame).
Also check that the connecting pipe cannot come into
contact with moving parts which could damage or
crush it.
Make sure that the natural gas pipe is adequate for a
sufficient supply to the appliance when all the burners
are lit Important: A pressure regulator, in compliance
with the standards in force, must be inserted when
connecting to a liquid gas supply (in a cylinder).
GB
Adapting to different types of gas
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas from the
factory-set one (indicated on the rating plate at the top
of the hood or on the packaging), the burner nozzles
should be replaced as follows:
• Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their
seats.

Start-up and use
Using the burners:
Hob operation
To obtain maximum efficiency from the burners, it is
advisable to only use pans with a diameter suitable for
the burner being used, so that the flame does not
extend beyond the pan base (see following table).
When a liquid starts boiling, it is advisable to turn the
flame down just enough to keep the liquid simmering.
GB
The burners are fitted with automatic ignition and a
thermocouple safety device, which automatically cuts
off the gas from the burner in a few seconds if the
flame accidentally goes out during operation.
The burners differ in size and power. Choose the most
appropriate one for the diameter of the cookware
being used.

thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack. To
clean more thoroughly, you can remove the oven door:
Cleaning the appliance
• Open the door completely and lift the 2 levers “B”;
• Now, shutting the door slightly, you can lift it out by
pulling out the hooks “A” as shown in figure.
! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for
example, products in spray cans for cleaning
barbecues and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust
products, powder detergents or sponges with
abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface
beyond repair.
To reassemble the door:
• With the door in a vertical position, insert the two
hooks “A” into the slots;
• Ensure that seat “D” is hooked perfectly onto the
edge of the slot (move the oven door backwards
and forward slightly);
• Keep the oven door open fully, unhook the 2 levers
“B” downwards and then shut the door again.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned
frequently, keeping in mind that:
• The self-cleaning panels (if present) and the
enameled parts should be washed with warm water
- abrasive powders and corrosive substances
should be avoided;
• The inside of the oven should be cleaned
immediately after use with warm water and soap;
the soap should be rinsed away and the interior
dried thoroughly;
• Stainless steel can be stained if it remains in
contact with agressive detergents (containing
phosphorus) or water with a high lime content. We
recommend that you rinse these parts thoroughly
and dry them well after cleaning. It is also a good
idea to dry any water spills;
• Never line the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil
because the buildup of heat will not only impede
the cooking process, but could also damage the
enamel.
Changing the oven light bulb
• Cutoff the supply of power to the oven by turning off
the omni-polar switch connecting it to the mains, or
by removing the plug if it is accessible;
• Unscrew the glass cover attached to the lamp
holder;
• Unscrew the lamp and replace it with another high-
temperature lamp (300°C) with the following
characteristics:
- Voltage: 230/240 V
