Hints and Tips
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in
the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven
vents allow some of this steam to escape.
However, always stand back from the oven
when opening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool
surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a
trim, it will condense and produce water
droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe
away condensation and also soil age from
surfaces.
Cookware
Use any ovenproof cookware, which will
withstand temperatures of 250°C.
Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly on the oven base.
Oven Cooking
Turn off the oven 5 minutes before the
end of cooking time, and use residual
heat to complete the cooking.
The thickness, the material and the
colour of the pan will influence the
cooking results.
When cooking, certain dishes increase in
volume, ensure the pan is large enough.
To prevent fat dripping when roasting
use tall rim pans proportional to the item
being roasted.
Prick the skin of poultry and sausages
with a fork before cooking to avoid
spitting.
Use heatproof glass dishes for soufflés.
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness,
conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the
way they transmit heat to the food inside
them.
Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware
and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking
and base browning.
Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium,
aluminium with non-stick interior and
coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils
increase cooking and base browning.
Cooking / baking parameters
There are authoritative tables referring to the
cooking and baking conditions.
You can make same changes in it based on
your cooking and baking experience.
Remarks: The dripping pan can be
introduced on the first level in order to reach
more even browning.
The cooking / baking time can be different in
function of the quality, homogeneity,
quantity of the dishes. We propose to pay
attention at the firs cooking parameters,
check the cooking / baking quality and
correct the cooking / baking parameters in
order to reach the best results. Repeat the
cooking / baking of the same cakes in the
same conditions the results will be same

Cleaning and care
The oven should be kept clean at all
times. A build-up of fats or other
foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
Before cleaning, ensure all control
knobs are in the OFF position, and the
appliance has cooled completely.
Before any maintenance or cleaning
can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the cooker from the
electricity supply.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your
oven, check that they are suitable and that
the manufacturer recommends their use.
Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning the
oven and hobs. Harsh abrasives should also
be avoided.
External cleaning
We recommend for cleaning cleaners that
do not scratch the surface; after that rinse
and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid use of metall
objects (knife, edge), steel wool or nylon
pads, abrasive or caustic products, or
diluents.
Cleaners that contain bleach should
NOT be used as they may dull the
surface finishes. Do not use a steam
cleaner for cleaner the oven and hobs.
Harsh abrasives should also be
avoided
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven
door and door seal using a soft cloth well
wrung out in warm water to which a little
washing up liquid has been added.
In the case of stainless steel parts, you may
use commercially available stainless steel
cleaners with care. These also provide a
protective film against finger marks.
To prevent damaging or weakening
the door glass panels avoid the use of
the following:
Household detergent and bleaches
• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non
stick saucepans
• Chemical oven pads or aerosols
• Rust removers
• Bath/Sink stain removers
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned
whilst the oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked
in warm soapy water after each use. From
time to time it will be necessary to do a
more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary
oven cleaner.

perfect seal of every pipe fitting, using a
soapy solution, never a flame.
Ensure that the rubber hose is not in contact
with any part of the back of the cookers as
is in the figure and that the loop of the hose
when connected is not in contact with the
floor when the appliance is in position.

Conversion of gas
Your cooker is designed to work with natural
gas, and is convertible for use with propane
or butane.
The LPG conversion kit is available from
your Service Force Centre and must be
fitted by an authorised Service Engineer.
For changing the gas type it is necessary to:
replace the nozzles (hob, oven and grill);
adjust the minimum level (hob and
oven);
check the gas connection;
Stick the label corresponding to the
type of gas used.

Replace the nozzles of the hob burners
Before any modifications or adapt the
range to a kind of different gas, you must
DISCONNECT the cooker from the
electricity supply and ensure that all control
knobs are in the OFF position, and the
appliance has cooled completely.
Hob burners
Remove the pan supports;
Remove the caps and the burner
crowns;
Using a No 7 socket spanner unscrew
the nozzles and replace them with
those required for the type of gas in use
(see table no. 1).
Reassemble the parts following the same
procedure in reverse.
These burners do not need any primary air
regulation.
Adjustment of minimum level for the
hob burners
The burner is correctly adjusted when the
flame is stable silent and goes out without
any noise.
When changing the type of gas check that
the minimum level is correct. The air
admission is correct when the flame is about
4 mm in length.
The top burners do not need adjustment of
primary air.
Check that, turning the knob quickly from
the maximum position to the minimum one,
the flame does not go out.

procedure in reverse.
Check that, when turning the knob quickly
from the maximum position to the minimum
one, the flame does not go out.
Replace the nozzles of the oven burners
To replace the gas oven nozzle, follow this
procedure:
Check the table no.1 for diameter of
nozzle;
Remove the oven removable base
panel A;
Remove the screw B on the oven
burner;
Remove the oven burner by pushing it

Flame adjustment
Oven burner
The burner is correctly adjusted when the
flame is stable, silent and goes out without
any noise.
When the flames are too short, the
nozzle is whistling or the flames have the
tendency to detach from the burner, it
means that there is too much air in the
valve. If there is too much air there is a
risk that the flames will extinguish.
But, if the flames are too long, soft,
lighting, there is not enough air in the
valves. These flames discolour the
bottom of pans.
Loosen the fixing screw M.
Move the air adjuster A forward or
backward until achieving the right
mixture;
