how to use a gas oven

When an unfamiliar piece of household appliances appears in your home, you:

either thoroughly study the instructions, and then act;
either turn on the "fifth sense", set up the "oracle" or use the "scientific poke method".

And, you must agree, the outcome of the situation according to scenario # 2 is obvious. They bring you equipment. Install. Customize. They are leaving. And you are left alone with her. This is where the fun begins.

Subsequent actions are comparable only to the dances of African shamans. During them, they also puff strangely, buzz, hum and twist. So, in order to save you and your nerves from unsuccessful acquaintance with such a type of technology as an oven, we ... We will reveal a terrible secret - the secret of turning it on.

The gas stove consists of two parts - a hob and an oven. She can be dependent and independent. The dependent stove has one control for the oven and hob, the independent one is separate.

Open the oven to turn it on. If necessary, turn on the lighting (there is a special button on the control). Find the hole (usually located above the door joint). Light a match and bring it to the fire.

Now press the appropriate button and wait. If everything is in order with the gas supply, there will be no problems with turning on the oven. In terms of switching on with an electric oven, it is easier, but a gas oven is not inferior, although you need to adapt.

Important:

Hostess memo. The control body of the gas stove is most often expressed by recessed handles (mechanical). Therefore, in order to turn on the stove (oven), you need to easily press the handle inward and turn it clockwise. And to turn it off - without pressing, turn against it.

And even the gas supply is under control

Modern gas units are good news. Of course, there are much fewer functions in them than in electrical ones, but the quality and reliability are at the highest level. Take, for example, the Slovenian Gorenje ovens.

Due to their quality and reasonable price, they have filled the whole of Europe long ago. A particularly large export of products is directed to Germany. And the Germans know a lot about quality.

So, modern models of gas ovens include useful modes, including "Gas supply control". You press and hold a special button for three seconds after the flame has formed, and only then release it. If you do not do this, the fire goes out.

About gas pressure

Are you planning a grandiose move to a new building? You can forget about the gas stove. Unfortunately, gas supply to modern residential high-rise buildings is not possible. But what can we say, even in old 5-9-storey buildings you often come across the fact that the gas simply “does not reach” the apartment because of the low pressure.

This is where the creativity of housewives comes in. Some kindle a fire with a broom branch, and some make a paper rope. If you are "lucky" to be faced with the problem of low gas pressure, first release it.

After that, roll the paper into a tube, moisten the end in your hand with water, and burn the other. Use this "miracle construction" to light the oven. Do this only as a last resort, if necessary. If there is none, call the gasman. There is no point in trying on a "headache" in the form of other people's responsibilities.

If there are no matches at hand

If you run out of matches, how to light a fire? Use a regular lighter. The principle is the same: release the gas, bring the lighter to the hole, open the fire and that's it. But don't forget that this method is dangerous.

After you light the oven, be sure to ventilate the area. "Activating" the hob with a lighter for smokers is also a matter of minutes. The main thing is to act carefully so as not to burn yourself.

Important:

Hostess memo. The above methods of "making fire" are life-threatening. You can use them, but we do not recommend doing this. It is better to buy a household lighter together with the stove, or not to be lazy and go for matches.
