To ignite the oven burner:

WARNING: Risk of explosion! The oven door must be open during this operation.

”
.
3 – Press the knob right down to prime the electric ignition. Keep the knob pressed.
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.
In case of a power cut, press the knob and immediately bring a lighted match to the
opening ‘A’ of the oven floor (fig. 5.2).
4 – After lighting the burner, wait a few seconds before releasing the knob (until the safety
valve stays open).
5 – Gently close the oven door and set the oven control knob to the required temperature.
If the flame extinguishes for any reason, the safety valve will automatically shut off the gas
supply to the burner.
To re-light the burner, first turn the oven control knob to position ●, wait for at least 1 minute
and then repeat the lighting procedure.
For efficient oven preheating, we recommend that grill trays and racks are removed
from the oven and replaced after about 15 minutes.
Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
