| Using energy in a responsible way not only saves money but also helps the environment. So let’s save energy! And this is how you can do it:
---|---

• Use proper pans for cooking.
  A saucepan should never be smaller than a burner crown.
  Always remember to cover and pans.

• Ensure burners, the grate the hob are clean.
  Soils can prevent heat transfer – and repeatedly burnt-on spillages can often only be removed by products which cause damage to the environment.
  In particular, ensure that flame openings in the rings under caps, and openings of burner nozzles are clean.

• Do not uncover the pan too often (a watched pot never boils!).
  Do not open the oven door unnecessarily often.

• Only use the oven when cooking larger dishes.
  Meat of up to 1 kg can be prepared more economically in a pan on the cooker burner.

• Make use of residual heat from the oven.
  If the cooking time is greater than 40 minutes it is recommended to switch off the oven 10 minutes before the end time.

• Make sure the oven door is properly closed.
  Heat can leak through spillages on the door seals. Clean up any spillages immediately.

• Do not install the cooker in the direct vicinity of refrigerators/freezers.
  Otherwise energy consumption increases unnecessarily.

OPERATION

BEFORE FIRST USE

First start – preliminary cleaning
To remove residues of fat and oil accumulated during the manufacturing process and dust accumulated during storage and transport, the preliminary cleaning of the equipment should be carried out. This way our health is protected and tasty cakes and roasts are provided.
Caustic agents and abrasive powders should be avoided as they can damage the surface.

Preliminary heating

1. Remove packaging elements from the oven chamber.
2. Turn on ventilation in the room or open a window.
3. Start the oven at the temperature of 2500 C.
4. Heat the oven for around 30 minutes.

The smell that is emitted during the first heating of the oven is connected with vapouring of residues of fat and oil used to protect the oven for the time of storing.

Important!
To clean the oven, only use a cloth well rang out with warm water to which a little washing-up liquid has been added.

How to use surface burners

Choice of cookware

Mind that the diameter of a pan base is always larger than the burner flame crown, and that the pan itself is covered. The recommended pan diameter is around 2.5 to 3 times larger than the burner diameter, that is, for:

• an auxiliary burner – a pan with a diameter of 90 to 150 mm,
• a medium burner – a pan with a diameter of 160 to 220 mm,
• a large burner – a pan with a diameter of 200 to 240 mm, and the pan height should not be greater than its diameter.

Gas burner control knobs

Ignition without an ignitor

• light a match,
• press in the knob to the end and turn it left to the “large flame” position
• ignite gas with a match,
• set required flame size (e.g. “economical”  ),
• switch off the burner after finishing cooking, turning the knob right (to the off position ⦿).

Knob ignition

• press in the knob to the end and turn it left to the “large flame” position  ,
• hold until gas is lit,
• after the flame is lighted release the pressure on the knob and set a required flame size.

Caution!

Operation of the burner protection valve

Automatic system cuts off gas supply to a burner when the flame has disappeared.
This system protects the cooker against gas leakage when the flame on a burner goes out e.g. in case of spillage.
The user’s intervention is needed to re-ignite the burner.

Selection of the appropriate flame

A correctly adjusted burner has a light blue flame with a clearly visible internal cone. Selection of flame size depends on the position of the burner knob which has been set:

large flame

small flame (“economical flame”)

⦿burner switched off (gas supply is cut off)

Depending on requirements, flame size can be set in a continuous manner.

Caution!
Do not adjust the flame between the off position ⦿ and the large flame position

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

By ensuring proper cleaning and maintenance of your cooker you can have a significant influence on the continuing fault-free operation of your appliance.

Before you start cleaning, the cooker must be switched off and you should ensure that all knobs are set to the “⦿”/“0” position. Do not start cleaning until the cooker has completely cooled.

Burners, the burner hob grate, the cooker housing

• In the case of soiled burners and grate, these elements must be removed from the cooker and washed with warm water and washing – up products intended for fats and soils. Next, wipe them dry. After the grate has been removed, wash the burner hob carefully and wipe with a dry and soft cloth. In particular, ensure flame openings in rings under caps are clean, see the figure below. Do not use steel wire or drill holes.

Warning:
Burner elements must always be clean. Water particles may hamper gas flow and produce an incorrect burner flame.

Important:
The burner caps and leads must be repositioned correctly so that they sit squarely onto the hob as shown.

• Wash enamel elements of the cooker with light washing products. When cleaning do not use cleaning agents with a strong abbrasive effect, such as scouring powders containing an abrasive, abrasive compounds, abrasive stones, pumice stones, wire brushes and so on.
• Before you start using the cooker with stainless steel hob, its cooking zone first needs to be carefully washed. It is important to remove glue residues from the foils taken off trays during installation, as well as adhesive tape applied during packaging. The hob should be cleaned regularly after each use. Do not allow the hob to get heavily stained, particularly from burnton spillages from boiled over liquids. An agent like Stahl-Fix is recommended for the initial wash and, subsequently, for routine washes.

Oven

• The oven should be cleaned after every use. When cleaning the oven the lighting should be switched on to enable you to see the surfaces better.
• The oven chamber should only be washed with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid.
• After cleaning the oven chamber wipe it dry.
