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.
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright

shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.

B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium

with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,

heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

Before using your oven

Switch the oven to "max" and leave it to run empty

for about 45 minutes to remove any unpleasant

smell.

During cooking, the door should be opened as little

as possible to avoid heat loss, and excessive fuel

consumption.

To ignite the oven gas burner:

1. Open the oven door.
2. Push the electric ignition button which is marked with

a little spark ( ).

3. At the same time press the oven control knob and

turn it anti-clockwise until the maximum temperature

("max") is reached.

4. Firmly press the oven control knob for approximately

5 seconds, until the safety valve automatically keeps

the oven burner lit.

5. Release the control knob and then gently close the

oven door. To adjust the temperature, turn the knob to

the required setting after a few minutes.

If the oven burner accidentally goes out, turn

the oven knob to "l" and wait at least 1 mi-

nute before trying to light the burner again.
