Cooktop burners INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE IMPORTANT Please make sure your cooker is unpacked completely before use. Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly placed and level. Take the accessory pack out of the oven. Check to be sure that no parts have come loose during shipping. INITIAL IGNITION Defuse any trapped air from the gas network, starting with each of the burners on the cooktop. Once this is done, the gas oven can then be ignited.
Cooktop burners INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE · Low setting: this is achieved by rotating the knob fully to the left or to the bottom (fig. 12). · Shutoff: bring the knob back to its vertical position by rotating it to the right. In case the burner flame is accidentally turned off, close the burner control knob and do not turn on the burner for at least one minute. Igniting cooktop burners without electricity If there is a power failure the cooktop burners can be lit with a match. 1.
Oven INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 2. STARTING WITH THE OVEN 2.1. Gas oven with electronic ignition The simmerstat C switches on the heating element on the vault of the oven (grill), the thermostat B switches on the gas burner. The simmerstat and the thermostat are both equipped with indicator lights. Oven ignition: Turn the oven thermostat (B) to the desired temperature.
Oven INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 2.3. Oven trays There are several different trays in your oven: 1) The large tray with an enameled coating and the pastry tray. Thes are intended exclusively for pastry-making or for ingredients to be grilled under the electric oven grill. The large size of thes trays means that it can be used as a cooking tray itself but is generally used for very large pieces of meat. You should not use it to cook poultry or small roasts.
The cooking principle INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 3. THE COOKING PRINCIPLE In the case of natural convection, the heat is generated from below the oven floor and then travels up along the walls of the oven and along the vault. This air flow creates a homogeneous atmosphere in which food is cooked and the temperature also stays very stable. This characteristic is unique and is only found in a "La Cornue" oven.
The cooking principle INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE Of course, it can also be used for making excellent pastries, pies, quiches and vegetable dishes: the choice of rack level and temperature required calls for just a little more thought. When roasting, whether lamb, turkey, pork or large fish, place the oven rack on the lowest level of the oven. Cooking often exceeds 40 minutes. In this case, preheat to 250 °C (480 °F), for 10 to 15 minutes.
Front panels UPKEEP Th 1 meringues, rock cakes, petits fours, meringue pies, braised meat, casseroles, braised beef stew Th 2 braised vegetables, sponge fingers, sponge cake, Savoie cake Th 3/4 caramel custard, pudding, macaroons, choux pastry, soufflés, large brioche, cakes, finger biscuits, white meat Th 5/6 large pieces of flaky pastry, tarts, flans, white meat roasts, croissants, fish, gratins Th 7/8 red meat roasts, very rare game Th 1 = 100 / 125 °C (210 / 260 °F) Th 2 = 125 / 150 °C (260 / 300
Finishes UPKEEP Bright coloured enamel fronts Because the enamel is vitrified, you can use a window-cleaning product on a paper towel. As fat may splash and splatter when an oven overheats, use an "Ajax Cream" type product and a sponge for cleaning. Enhanced results can be obtained by using window cleaning products. Stainless steel front panel For routine cleaning, use a special stainless steel cleaning product on a piece of paper towel.
Cooktop UPKEEP 3. THE COOKTOP As your cooker is made up of a number of different elements, we recommend applying a cleaning procedure adapted to each specific case. However, it should be noted that, once you have memorized a few "tips", the maintenance of "La Cornue" cooker is easier than any other, on condition that it is cleaned regularly.
Oven UPKEEP Depending on how often you use your stainless steel fittings, thorough cleaning may be necessary to restore them to their initial splendour. To do this, use scouring cream or special powder for stainless steel. After thoroughly removing any baked-on grease from the steel, rinse with clean water. 4. THE OVEN The "La Cornue" vaulted oven principle and the quality of convection obtained, considerably limit oven cleaning problems.
Upkeep UPKEEP Finally, we recommend making a list of all the cleaning products needed for your cooker, all of which are available at a shop near you: For my hob ...........................................................................................................................................................
