General Instructions

We thank you for choosing one of our products. For the best results with your oven, you should read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference. Before installing the oven, take note of the serial number so that you can give it to customer service staff if any repairs are required. Having removed the oven from its packaging, check that it has not been damaged during transportation. If you have doubts, do not use the oven and refer to a qualified technician for advice. Keep all of the packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails) out of the reach of children. When the oven is switched on for the first time, strong smelling smoke can develop, which is caused by the glue on the insulation panels surrounding the oven heating for the first time. This is absolutely normal and, if it occurs, you should wait for the smoke to dissipate before putting food in the oven. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility in cases where the instructions contained in this document are not observed.

NOTE: the oven functions, properties and accessories cited in this manual will vary, depending on the model you have purchased.

Safety Indications

Only use the oven for its intended purpose, that is only for the cooking of foods; any other use, for example as a heat source, is considered improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable usage.
The use of any electrical appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules:

• Do not pull on the power cable to disconnect the plug from the socket;
• Do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or feet;
• In general the use of adaptors, multiple sockets and extension cables is not recommended;
• In case of malfunction and/or poor operation, switch off the appliance and do not tamper with it.

Electrical Safety

ENSURE THAT AN ELECTRICIAN OR QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN MAKES THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. The power supply to which the oven is connected must conform with the laws in force in the country of installation. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by the failure to observe these instructions. The oven must be connected to an electrical supply with an earthed wall outlet or a disconnector with multiple poles, depending on the laws in force in the country of installation. The electrical supply should be protected with suitable fuses and the cables used must have a transverse section that can ensure correct sup-ply to the oven.

CONNECTION
The oven is supplied with a power cable that should only be connected to an electrical supply with 220-240 Vac power between the phases or between the phase and neutral. Before the oven is connected to the electrical supply, it is important to check:

• Power voltage indicated on the gauge;
• The setting of the disconnector.

The grounding wire connected to the oven’s earth terminal must be connected to the earth terminal of the power supply.

WARNING
Before connecting the oven to the power supply, ask a qualified electrician to check the continuity of the power supply’s earth terminal. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any accidents or other problems caused by failure to connect the oven to the earth terminal or by an earth connection that has defective continuity.

NOTE: as the oven could require maintenance work, it is advisable to keep another wall socket available so that the oven can be connected to this if it is removed from the space in which it is installed. The power cable must only be substituted by technical service staff or by technicians with equivalent qualifications.

A low light around the central main switch could be present when the oven is off. This is a normal behavior. I can be removed just turning the plug upside down or swapping the supply terminals.

Recommendations
After each use of the oven, a minimum of cleaning will help keep the oven perfectly clean.
Do not line the oven walls with aluminum foil or single-use protection available from stores. Aluminum foil or any other protection, in direct contact with the hot enamel, risks melting and deteriorating the enamel of the insides. In order to prevent excessive dirtying of your oven and the resulting strong Smokey smells, we recommend not using the oven at very high temperature. It is better to extend the cooking time and lower the temperature a little. In addition to the accessories supplied with the oven, we advise you only use dishes and baking molds resistant to very high temperatures.

Installation
The manufacturers have no obligation to carry this out. If the assistance of the manufacturer is required to rectify faults arising from incorrect installation, this assistance is not covered by the guarantee. The installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel must be followed. Incorrect installation may cause harm or injury to people, animals or belongings. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for such harm or injury.
The oven can be located high in a column or under a worktop. Before fixing, you must ensure good ventilation in the oven space to allow proper circulation of the fresh air required for cooling and protecting the internal parts. Make the openings specified on last page according to the type of fitting.

Cooking Modes

air at room temperature around the frozen food so that it defrosts in a few minutes without the protein content of the food being changed or altered.
| 180| 50 ÷ MAX| MULTI-LEVEL: We recommend you use this method for poultry, pastries, fish and vegetables. Heat penetrates into the food better and both the cooking and preheating times are reduced. You  can  cook different  foods at the same time with or without the same preparation in one or more po- sitions. This cooking method gives even heat distribution and the smells are not mixed.

Allow about ten minutes extra when cooking foods at the same time.

| 190| 50 ÷ MAX| COOK LIGHT: This function allows to cook in a healthier way, by re- ducing the amount of fat or oil required. The combination of heating ele- ments with a pulsating cycle of air ensures a perfect baking result.
| 210| 50 ÷ MAX| CONVENTION + FAN + STEAM: Selecting this function, the lower and  up- per heating elements work together with the fan for a uniform cooking on all levels. It is necessary to add 150 ml of water in the cavity and rotate the knob to this function. This cooking method enhances the tendemess and flavors of each dısh, especially roasting and red meat.
| 220| 50 ÷ MAX| CONVENTIONAL + STEAM: Both top and bottom heating elements will be switched on using the water inside the cavity to generate steam. It is necessary to add 150 ml of water in the cavity and rotate the knob to this homogeneous cooking performance.
| 230| 50 ÷ MAX| GRILL : use the grill with the door closed.
The top heating element is used alone and you can adjust the temperature. Five minutes preheating is required to get the elements red-hot. Success is guaranteed for grills, kebabs and gratin dishes. White meats should be put at a distance from the grill; the cooking time is longer, but the meat will be tastier. You can put red meats and fish fillets on the shelf with the drip tray underneath.
| 210| 50 ÷ MAX| BOTTOM HEATING + FAN + STEAM: The bottom heating element is used with the fan circulating the air inside the oven. For the steam generation,   it is necessary to add 150 ml of water in the cavity and rotate the knob to this function. The steam option together with the bottom heating and the fan, ensures a perfect leavening and cooking to bread.

General notes on cleaning

The lifecycle of the appliance can be extended through regular cleaning. Wait for the oven t cool before carrying out manual cleaning operations. Never use abrasive detergents, steel wool or sharp objects for cleaning, so as to not irreparably damage the enameled parts. Use only water, soap or bleach-based detergents (ammonia).

GLASS PARTS
It is advisable to clean the glass window with absorbent kitchen towel after every use of the oven. To remove more obstinate stains, you can use a detergent-soaked sponge, well wrung out, and then rinse with water.

OVEN WINDOW SEAL
If dirty, the seal can be cleaned with a slightly damp sponge.

ACCESSORIES
Clean accessories with a wet, soapy sponge before rinsing and drying them: avoid using abrasive detergents.

DRIP PAN
After using the grill, remove the pan from the oven. Pour the hot fat into a container and wash the pan in hot water, using a sponge and washing-up liquid.
If greasy residues remain, immerse the pan in water and detergent. Alternatively, you can wash the pan in the dishwasher or use a commercial oven detergent. Never put a dirty pan back into the oven.

Waste management and environmental protection

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU regarding electric and electronic appliances (WEEE). The WEEE contain both polluting substances
(that can have a negative effect on the environment) and base elements (that can be reused). It is important that the WEEE undergo specific treatments to correctly remove and dispose of the pollutants and recover all the materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that the WEEE do not become an environmental problem; it is essential to follow a few basic rules:

• The WEEE should not be treated as domestic waste;
• The WEEE should be taken to dedicated col-lection areas managed by the town council or a registered company.

In many countries, domestic collections may be available for large WEEEs. When you buy a new appliance, the old one can be returned to the vendor who must accept it free of charge as a one-off, as long as the appliance is of an equivalent type and has the same functions as the purchased appliance.

SAVING AND RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
Where possible, avoid pre-heating the oven and always try to fill it. Open the oven door as infrequently as possible, because heat from the cavity disperses every time it is opened. For a significant energy saving, switch off the oven between 5 and 10 minutes before the planned end of the cooking time, and use the residual heat that the oven continues to gen-erate. Keep the seals clean and in order, to avoid any heat dispersal outside of the cavity. If you have an electric contract with an hourly tariff, the “delayed cooking” programme makes energy saving more simple, moving the cooking process to start at the reduced tariff
time slot.

Troubleshooting

remove the condensation layer

Installation

If the furniture is equipped with a bottom at the back part, provide an opening for the power supply cable.

If the mounting of the plinth does not allow air circulation, to obtain the maximum performance of the oven it is necessary to create an opening of 500x10mm or the same surface in 5.000 mm2.
