INSTALLATION  
Installation location  
In order for the gas unit to work properly it is essential that the air necessary for burning  
the gas flows into the area naturally.  
The installer must follow the safety norms for the country of installation.  
The flow of air into the area must come directly through openings made in the exterior  
walls.  
These openings must have a free passage section of at least 100 cm² (one or more  
openings can be made).  
Products of combustion must be exhausted through a hood connected to a fume flue  
or directly outside.  
In the event that it is not possible to install the hood, it is necessary to use an electric  
ventilation fan installed in the outside wall or window of the area so long as there is  
an opening for air to enter the area in conformity with current law.  
This electric ventilation fan must have a flow capacity sufficient to guarantee that  
3 to 5 times the volume of air in the room is exchanged every hour.  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION  
Attention: do not connect to the power supply before you have finished connecting  
the oven and cooktop.  
Make sure that installation and hook-up are performed by a qualified technician  
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and in compliance with local  
regulations. The installer is responsible for the correct electrical connection and for  
the observance of the safety rules.  
The oven must be connected to the electricity supply by means of an all-pole disconnect  
switch with minimum contact gap of 3 mm.  
The appliance must be earthed by law.  
Do not use multiple sockets or extensions.  
After the oven has been installed, the electrical components must be inaccessible.  
Make sure that the voltage stated on the appliance rating plate is the same as the  
voltage in your home. The rating plate is on the lower front edge of the oven (visible  
with the door open).  
If the power supply cable needs replacing, make sure that it is replaced with a cable  
similar to the one provided by the Manufacturer (H05 RR-F type) and that installation  
is performed by the Service Center or a qualified technician.

Adjusting the minimum  
The oven thermostat is equipped with a by-pass for the minimum.  
When the type of gas is changed, this adjustment must be adapted as follows:  
-if there is a glass front panel, it has to be removed by unscrewing the two  
fixing screws (fig. 4a).  
-if there is a metal front panel, the adjustment can be done through the  
opening, which is on the left side of the knobs (fig. 4b).  
Light the oven and let it burn at the maximum temperature for at least 30 minutes.  
Turn the thermostat knob to the minimum and adjust the by-pass to the minimum  
so that you achieve a reduced by stable flame. Perform this operation with the oven  
door closed. Use a flat-head screwdriver on the by-pass screw. It is sufficient  
to loosen the screw several turns to adjust the minimum when changing from liquid  
gas to natural gas.  
Important: once adjusted the burner, check that the minimum flame is maintained,  
testing it by repeatedly opening and closing the oven door. If the flame goes out,  
adapt the by-pass adjustment.  
Complete the operations (replacing the injector, adjusting the air and minimum),  
turn off the oven and apply the new data plate (which shows the type of gas being used)  
replacing the previous one and apply seals using sealing wax or similar.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN  
These instructions are only valid for the destination countries whose identification  
symbols are shown on the back cover of the appliance instruction booklet.  
To make the most of your new oven, read the users instructions carefully and keep  
them on hand for consulting in the future.  
Remove the cardboard protection and the protective plastic film.  
Remove the accessories from the oven and heat it at the maximum temperature setting  
for about 30 minutes to eliminate the bad smell of protective grease and insulating  
materials. Keep the window open during this operation.  
Make sure that the electrical wires of other electrical appliances near the cooktop or  
the oven do not come into contact with hot parts and do not become entrapped in  
the oven door.  
Your oven is equipped with a fan designed to cool internal parts of the cabinet and  
the oven components. The fan creates a gentle flow of air, which comes out the  
steam vent located below the control panel. The cooling system starts working  
immediately while it can stop immediately after the oven is switched off or from  
10 to 30 minutes later (depending on the oven temperatures). In the event of  
malfunction of the cooling fan, do not use the oven. Contact the after-sales Service.  
In case of interruption of the electricity supply, do not use the appliance;  
if it happens during the use of the appliance, switch off the appliance and do not use it.  
It is possible for the inside of the glass in the oven door to cloud up during cooking.  
Do not rest heavy weights on the door because these could damage the oven cavity  
and the hinges.  
Do not obstruct cooling openings or slots or the fume exhaust.  
If turning the oven burner knob becomes difficult, contact the After Sales Service  
for replacement.
