General Oven Information

Before using your oven for the first time remove all packing and foreign materials from the oven(s).
Any material of this sort left inside may melt or burn when the appliance is used.

Error codes
This code appears in the event of the electronic control indicating a fault. When the error appears, the current function is blocked. If the type of error is related to a safety function, the oven becomes unusable and every time a start attempt is made, the same error appears (in which case call in the after-sales service), while if the error relates to a minor fault, after being restarted the oven can be used for the functions that do not involve the faulty part (e.g., a heating element).

Beeps
Confirms that the command has been received after a key has been pressed.
It also indicates that a time function has been completed (e.g. Timer or Timed Cooking). During the execution of a recipe, an acoustic signal warns the user that the oven is waiting for operation by the user (e.g., insert the dish or turn it over). Beeps also signal an oven fault.

Default Settings
The cooking modes automatically select a suitable temperature when the cooking mode is selected, these can be changed when a different one is needed.

F Failure Number Codes
These codes are displayed when the electronic control detects a problem in the oven or in the electronics.
The error code is recorded in the Error Log in the Setup menu. This error can be communicated to the service technician so he/she can understand the possible cause of the problem in advance.

Preheat
Whenever a cooking mode is set and the oven is heating, the preheating starts, during this period, the instantaneous temperature is displayed together with the thermometer icon. As soon as the 100% is reached, the control sounds an “end of preheat” tone and the current temperature value disappears.

Timer

WARNING
The timer on your oven does not turn the appliance on or off, its only purpose is to alert you through the buzzer. When you want to turn off the oven automatically, use the end-of-cooking or delayed cooking function.

NOTE: Pressing the OFF button does not reset or stop the timer.

  5. When the time expires, the display shows 00:00 and the buzzer will sound for one minute or until the button is pressed.

General Oven Tips

Preheating the Oven

  • Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.
  • Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
  • Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.
  • Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
  • During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is always displayed.
  • A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the “detected temperature” will turn off.

Operational Suggestions

  • Do not set pans on the open oven door.
  • Use the interior oven lights to view the food through the oven door window rather than opening the door frequently.

Operation with microwaves
The microwaves are transformed into heat inside foods. The microwave oven can be used by itself or in combination with other types of heating.
This section contains information about the dishware and instructions for setting the microwave oven.

WARNINGS FOR DISHWARE

Suitable dishware
You can use heat-resistant dishware made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or refractory plastics.
These materials are permeable to microwaves.
It is also possible to use normal plates. In this way, it won’t be necessary to transfer the food.
Dishware with gold or silver decorations can only be used if the manufacture guarantees that they can be used in microwave ovens.
Remember that, when using the oven in microwave mode, the dish must be placed on the rotating plate.
When using the oven in combination mode, it is preferable to place the dish to be cooked on the low, round grill, supported so that it is centred on the rotating plate.

Unsuitable dishware
Metal dishware cannot be used.
Metal is not permeable to microwaves.
Food in metal containers will remain cold.
Warning! Metal components, such as spoons in glasses, must stay at least 2 cm from the walls of the oven and the inside of the door.
In fact, sparks could seriously damage the inside of the glass door.
Warning! The flat grill must be removed when using the microwave and combined modes.
Use it only with traditional oven functions.

Testing dishware
Never turn on the microwave oven before you have put in the food.
The only exception allowed is testing dishware.
If you unsure if your dishware can be used in the microwave oven, we recommend performing the following test: place the empty pot in the appliance for ½ – 1 minute at the maximum power. Check the temperature.
The pat must be cold or slightly warm. If it is hot or there are sparks, the pot is not suitable.

Oven Condensation and Temperature

  • It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process.
    The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

  • Your new oven has an electronic temperature sensor that allows maintaining an accurate temperature.

High Altitude Baking

  • When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time will vary from the standard.

Getting Started

Instructions for initial switch-on
