Having purchased a 1994 Kenwood music system from a Charity shop in 2013 (it was a high end product in its day), I found myself not quite knowing where to plug in what, and how to do this, that and the next thing. I needed a Manual, and after failure with another online 'Manual provider' I found Owner Manuals dot com. Well, I wasn't sure, but it was only $5, and if things didn't work out, I wouldn't have lost much...
But things DID work out. After paying my childrens inheritance money, $4.99, I was sent a Manual for my Kenwood System very quickly. Alas, it was in German, and being Scottish, I could not read it or get my system in order from it...a rapid email to them brought the English Manual in short order, and my retro-system was and IS up and running in it's regulation settings.
I am very grateful to http://www.owner-manuals.com for their quick service and for even having such an obsolete Manual in the first place! If you need a Manual for ANYTHING, try here first. I wouldn't be surprised if I bought a 1928 Marconi radio, and got the user Manual for THAT here too!
Top marks.

I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

Using the gas hob
Hob Control knobs (Fig. 1)
The knobs for using the gas hob are found on the control panel. The knobs are marked with the following symbols:
�
No gas supply Maximum gas supply Minimum gas supply Fig. 1
FO 2063
All models are equipped with a safety-valve. In case of extinction of the flame, this device will operate, stopping gas supply (ex.: overflowing, draughts).
Ignition of hob burners
To ignite a burner, before positioning the saucepan: - press the ignition switch marked by a small spark ( ), - push the corresponding knob in completely and turn in an anticlockwise direction to the maximum position; - keep the knob pushed for about 5 seconds: this will allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 2 - D) to be heated and the safety devise to be switched off, otherwise the gas supply would be interrupted - upon ignition regulate the flame as required. If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite, check that the baffle and its cap are correctly positioned. To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the knob in a clockwise direction to the position " � ". During cooking, when using fats or oils, take particular care as they can, when overheated, self-ignite.

Hints and tips
Pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cooking than a narrow one. Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook. Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow. Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottom and burn easily. It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes. In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on the bottom of the oven and consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray, making cleaning difficult. Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they are not heat-proof. You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption as in Fig. 3. It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point.
