Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum positions, and never between the maximum and positions. When the range is not being used, set the gas knobs to their positions and also close the gas shut-off valve placed on the main gas supply line. • LIGHTING GAS BURNERS In order to light the burner, you must: 1 – Push and turn the knob in a counterclockwise direction up to the position (maximum rate), push in and hold the knob until the flame has been lit. The sparks produced by the internal igniter will light the designated burner. In the event that the local gas supply conditions make it difficult to light the burner in the HI position, try again with the knob in LO position. 2 – Adjust the gas valve to the desired position. To re-light the burner, return the knob to the position and repeat the operations for lighting. Caution! The range becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach. • CHOICE OF BURNER DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY BE USED ON THE TOP BURNERS BURNER MINIMUM MAXIMUM Auxiliary 4" 23/32 (12 cm) 5" 1/2 (14 cm) Semirapid 6" 19/64 (16 cm) 9" 7/16 (24 cm) Rapid 9" 7/16 (24 cm) 10" 15/64 (26 cm) Do not use pans with concave or convex bases 14 The symbols printed on the panel above the gas knobs indicate the correspondence between the knob and the burner. The most suitable burner is to be chosen according to the diameter and volume capacity of the container to be warmed. It is important that the diameter of the pots or pans suitably match the heating potential of the burners in order not to jeopardize the efficiency of the burners, bringing about a waste of gas fuel. A small diameter pot or pan placed on a large burner does not necessarily mean that boiling conditions are reached quicker. High – Altitude effects on burners: The surface burners used on this unit range from 3,200 BTU to 10,000 BTU on natural gas installation under 2,000 feet above sea level. Burner strength is de- rated by 4% per 1000 feet. HOW TO USE THE GAS OVEN • GENERAL FEATURES The gas oven is provided with two burners: Oven burner, mounted on the lower part of the oven: Broil burner, mounted on the upper part of the oven: • USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME It is advised to follow these instructions – Insert shelves and tray – Turn the oven on to the maximum temperature (position 550) to eliminate possible traces of grease from the oven burner. The same operation should be followed for the broiler burner(knob on position BROIL) – Switch off the electrical supply, let the oven cool down, then clean the interior of the oven with cloth soaked in water and detergent (neutral) then dry carefully. 15 OVEN BURNER It carries out normal “oven cooking”. The gas flow to the burner is regulated by a thermostat which allows to maintain the desired oven temperature. The control of the temperature is assured by a thermostatic probe positioned inside the oven. The probe must be always kept in its housing, in a clean condition, as an incorrect position or encrustment may cause an alteration in the control of the temperature. GAS OVEN SETTING Number printed on the knob Temperature in °F Corresponding temperature in °C 300 149 350 177 400 204 450 232 500 260 OVEN THERMOSTAT The numbers printed on the control panel indicate the increasing oven temperature value (°F). To regulate the temperature, set the chosen number onto the control knob indicator. The position BROIL serves only to turn on the broil burner. NOTE: When the range will not be used for long periods of time, set the gas knobs to their positions and also close the gas shut-off valve placed on the main gas supply line. VERY IMPORTANT: The oven/broil shall be used always with the door closed. 16 IGNITION OF THE OVEN BURNER The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature. The gas delivery to the oven burner is controlled by a two way thermostatic tap (oven and broil burners) with flame-failure device. To light the oven burner operate as follows: 1) Open the oven door to its full extent. WARNING: Risk of explosion! The oven door must be open during this operation. 2) Lightly press and turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise to max position or 550.F A 3) Press the knob inward and hold to activate the electronic ignition. Note that you will hear a “clicking” noise. Hold the knob pressed inward until the oven burner is lit. Once the oven burner is lit, release the knob. In case of power outage, you can manually light the burner by pressing the knob inward and immediately approach a lighted match to the opening “A” (see the diagram above). Never continue this operation for more than 15 seconds. If the burner has still not ignited, wait for about 1 minute prior to repeating the ignition. 4) When using the range for the first time or after long period of non-usage, keep pressing the knob inward for approximately 10 – 15 seconds after the burner has lit to ensure the gas valve has been accu...
