INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE  
When a liquid starts boiling, it is advisable to turn the flame  
down just enough to keep the liquid simmering.  
HOB OPERATION  
The hob is fitted with a pan reducing support (fig.1), which  
should only be used on the auxiliary burner "A"  
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. Each burner can be regulated with the corresonding  
control knob "M" by using one of the following settings:

• If a burner flame accidentally goes out, the gas continues  
to exit for a few moments before the safety device  
activates. Turn the control knob to the off position and do  
not attempt ignition again for at least 1 minute, thereby  
letting the gas disperse, which could otherwise be a  
danger.

the oven by a fan. The oven heats up very quickly so the  
food to be cooked may be put into the oven as soon as it  
is switched on. Cooking is also possible simultaneously  
on two shelves.  
To ensure a long life cycle for the appliance, it is essential  
to carry out a thorough general clean frequently, taking into  
account that:  
• The “fast defrosting“ function  
uses no heating  
The appliance should be disconnected from the mains  
supply before starting cleaning operations.  
Avoid cleaning appliance parts when they are still warm.  
The enamelled, chromed or glass parts must be washed  
with warm water without using abrasive powders or  
corrosive substances which could ruin them.  
The inside of the oven should be cleaned every time it is  
used with hot water and detergent; rinse and dry  
thoroughly.  
The steel parts and especially the areas with the screen-  
printed symbols should not be cleaned with diluents or  
abrasive detergents. It is advisable to use only a a damp  
cloth with tepid water and washing up liquid. After cleaning,  
the surfaces should be rinsed thoroughly with water and

When the light goes out, the required temperature has been  
reached inside the oven.  
When the light alternately comes on and goes out, it means  
that the thermostat is working properly to maintain the oven  
temperature.  
Clean the end part of the automatic glow plug ignitors of  
the hob frequently.  
Minute minder "T"  
This is a buzzer timer situated on the control panel and is  
suitable for timing up to a max. of 60 minutes.

(exclusively for cooking appliances)  
Kitchen ventilation  
fig.4  
The air flow into the room where the appliance is installed  
must equal the quantity of air that is required for regular  
combustion of the gas and for ventilating the same room.  
Air must be taken in naturally through permanent apertures  
made in the outside walls of the room or through single or  
branching collective ventilation ducts in compliance with  
current standards and regulations.  
The air must be taken directly from the outside, from an  
area far from sources of pollution.  
The ventilation aperture must have the following  
characteristics (fig.7A):  
The following instructions are provided for qualified installers  
so that they may accomplish installation, adjustment and  
technical maintenance operations correctly and in  
compliance with current regulations and standards.  
Important: the appliance should be disconnected from  
the mains electricity supply before any adjustment,  
maintenance, etc. is carried out. Maximum caution should  
be used should it be necessary to keep the appliance  
connected to the electricity supply.  
total free cross section of passage of at least 6 cm² for  
every kW of rated heating capacity of the appliance, with  
a minimum of 100 cm² (the heating capacity is indicated  
on the rating plate);  
it must be made in such a way that the aperture, both on  
the inside and outside of the wall, cannot be obstructed;  
it must be protected, e.g. with grates, wire mesh, etc. in  
such a way that the above-mentioned free section is not  
reduced;  
The cookers have the following technical specifications:  
Category: II 2H3+ Class: 1 Type: Y  
The dimensions of the appliance are given in the figure on  
page 2.  
For trouble-free operation of appliances installed in housing  
units, the minimum distances shown in fig.4 should be  
observed. Adjacent surfaces and the wall at the rear should  
also be able to withstand an overheating temperature of 65  
°C.  
Prior to installing the cooker, 95 ÷ 155 mm high supporting  
feet (provided) should be fitted into the holes to be found in  
the bottom of the cooker (fig.5). These feet are screw-  
adjustable and whenever necessary should be used to make  
sure the cooker stands level.

Positioning  
This appliance may only be installed and operated in  
permanently ventilated rooms in compliance with current  
standards. The following requirements must be observed:  
The appliance must discharge combustion products into  
a special hood, which must be connected to a chimney,  
flue pipe or directly to the outside (fig.6).  
If it is impossible to fit a hood, the use of an electric fan is  
permitted, either installed on a window or on an external  
wall, which must be switched on at the same time as the  
appliance.  
The air inflow may also be obtained from an adjoining room,  
provided the latter is not a bedroom or a room where there  
is a risk of fire, such as warehouses, garages, fuel stores,  
etc. and is ventilated in compliance with the current  
standards and regulations.  
Air from the adjoining room to the one to be ventilated may  
be made to 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 (fig.7B).

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.  
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).  
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 basements or  
rooms below ground level; it is advisable to keep only the  
cylinder in use in the room at any one time and connected  
far from heat sources which could raise its temperature to  
above 50 °C.

Gas supply connection  
• Check that the appliance is set for the type of gas available  
and then connect it to the mains gas piping or the gas  
cylinder in compliance with current regulations and  
standards.  
Adaptation to a different type of gas  
If the appliance is to be converted for use with a type of  
gas other than that for which it was set in the factory  
(indicated on the label to be found on the hob), the burner  
nozzles should be replaced as follows:  
• This appliance is designed and set to work with the gas  
indicated on the label situated on the actual hob. If the  
gas supply is other than the type for which the appliance  
has been set, proceed with replacing the corresponding  
nozzles (provided), following instructions given in the  
paragraph “Adaptation to different types of gas”.  
• For trouble-free operation, suitable use of energy and  
longer life of the appliance, make sure that the supply  
pressure complies with the values indicated in the table 1  
"burners and nozzles specifications, otherwise install a  
special pressure regulator on the supply pipe in  
compliance with current standards and regulations.  
• Connect in such a way that the appliance is subjected to  
no strain whatsoever.  
• remove the grids and the burners.  
Unscrew the nozzles "A" (fig.9), using a 7 mm socket  
wrench and replace them, according to the table 1  
"burners and nozzles specifications", with ones suitable  
for the new type of gas.  
• On completing the operation, replace the old rating label  
with the one showing the new type of gas; the sticker is  
available from our Service Centres.  
• Re-assemble all the components.  
Either a rigid metal pipe with fittings in compliance with the  
standards in force must be used for connecting to the nipple  
union (threaded ½"G male fitting) situated at the rear of the  
appliance to the right (fig.8), or flexible steel pipe in  
compliance with 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).

Adjusting the low flame  
• Put the tap to the low flame position (the burner should  
be lit);  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION  
THE APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED  
• Remove the tap knob and turn the adjusting screw,  
situated to the side of the tap stem (fig.10) until you  
obtain a regular small flame, using a screwdriver  
(loosening the screw increases the height of the flame,  
tightening decreases it).  
The appliance is designed to work with alternating current  
at the supply voltage and frequency indicated on the rating  
plate (situated on the rear part of the appliance and on the  
last page of the instruction booklet). Make sure that the  
local supply voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated  
on the rating plate.  
N.B. : the adjusting screw must be fully screwed down  
for liquid gas.  
• Having obtained the low flame setting required and with  
the burner lit, abruptly change the position of the knob  
several times from minimum to maximum and vice ver-  
sa and check that the flame does not go out.  
• Refit the tap knobs  
Connecting the supply cable to the mains electricity  
supply  
For models supplied without a plug, fit a standard plug,  
suitable for the load indicated on the rating plate, onto the  
cable and connect it to a suitable socket.  
To connect directly to the mains supply, an omnipolar switch  
with a contact break of at least 3 mm suitable for the load  
and complying with current standards and regulations must  
be fitted between the appliance and the mains supply outlet.  
The yellow-green earth wire must not be interrupted by the  
switch.  
The supply cable must be in such a position that no part of  
it can reach a temperature of 50 °C above room temperature.  
All the appliances should be connected seperately.  
Do not use adapters or shunts as they could cause heating  
or burning.  
Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that:  
• the limiter valve and the domestic system can withstand  
the load from the appliance (see rating plate);  
• the supply system is efficiently earthed according to the  
standards and laws in force;  
fig.10  
• the socket or omnipolar switch are easily accessible when  
the appliance is installed.  
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ACCIDENT-PREVENTION  
REGULATIONS RELIEVES THE MANUFACTURER OFALL  
LIABILITY.  
Replacing the cable  
Use a rubber cable of the type H05VV-F with a suitable  
cross section of 3 x 1.5 mm².  
The yellow-green earth wire must be 2 ÷ 3 cm longer than  
the other wires.
