manual abstract
This may be the minimum setting C, the maximum setting E or any position in between the two. If the appliance is fitted with an electronic lighting device* (see figure), press the BURNER knob and turn it in an anticlockwise direction, towards the minimum flame setting, until the burner is lit. The burner may be extinguished when the knob is released. If this occurs, repeat the operation, holding the knob down for a longer period of time. ! If the flame is accidentally extinguished, switch off the burner and wait for at least 1 minute before attempting to relight it. If the appliance is equipped with a flame failure safety device*, press and hold the BURNER knob for approximately 2-3 seconds to keep the flame alight and to activate the device. To switch the burner off, turn the knob until it reaches the stop position •. Practical advice on using the burners For the burners to work in the most efficient way possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed, it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a flat base are used. They should also be suited to the size of the burner: Burner 0 Cookware diameter (cm) Triple Crown (TC) 24 - 26 Semi Fast (S) 16 - 20 Auxiliary (A) 10 - 14 ! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away. ! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged. ! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film from the sides of the appliance. 1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob. 2. Select the recommended temperature for the cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob. A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant table (see Oven cooking advice tablé). During cooking it is always possible to: • Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob. • Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob. • Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the “0” position. ! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided. THERMOSTAT indicator light When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat. It switches off when the inside of the oven reaches the selected temperature. At this point the light illuminates and switches off alternately, indicating that the thermostat is working and is maintaining the temperature at a constant level. Oven light This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob to any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long as the oven is operating. By selecting -A- with the knob, the light is switched on without any of the heating elements being activated. * Only available in certain models. 20 H Hotpoint ARISTON Cooking modes 2 DOUBLE GRILL mode ! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 50oC and Max, except for • GRILL, DOUBLE GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level); • GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200OC). This provides a larger grill than the normal grill setting and has an innovative design that improves cooking efficiency by 50% and eliminates the cooler corner areas. Use this grilling mode to achieve a uniform browning on top of the food. GRATIN mode _ TRADITIONAL OVEN mode Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed in an uneven manner. BAKING mode The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously. PIZZA mode The circular heating elements and the elements at the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan is activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly from the element at the bottom. If you use more than one rack simultaneously, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process. b MULTI-COOKING mode All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular) switch on and the fan begins to operate. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time. □ GRILL mode The central part of the top heating element is switched on. The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food that requires a high surface temperature (veal and beef steaks, fillet steak and entrecote). This cooking mode uses...
