Description of the appliance

Overall view

Control panel

Start-up and use

! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may produce a slightly unpleasant odour caused by the burning away of protective substances used during the manufacturing process.

Starting the oven

1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the desired temperature with the THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table for cooking modes and the suggested cooking temperatures (see Cooking Modes).
3. When lit, the THERMOSTAT indicator light indicates that the oven is heating up to the temperature set.
4. You may do the following during cooking:
   – change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.
   – change the temperature by turning the

THERMOSTAT knob.

– stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the “O” position.
! Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to avoid damaging the enamel coating.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that blows out air between the control panel and the oven door.

! Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Oven light

It goes on when selecting with the SELECTOR knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected.

**How to use the timer***

1. To set the buzzer, turn the TIMER knob clockwise almost one complete revolution.
2. Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time: align the minutes shown on the TIMER knob with the indicator on the control panel.
3. The timer operates in minutes: when the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer will sound.

! The timer does not turn the oven on or off.

The electronic cooking programmer

This feature allows you to program the oven or the grill as follows:

• delayed cooking time for a specified period;
• immediate start for a specified period;
• timer.

Button Functions:

: Timer with hours and minutes;
: cooking time;
: end cooking time;
: Manual change;
 : set cooking time (to count down);
: set cooking time (to start from zero)

How to reset the digital clock.

After the appliance has been connected to the power supply, or after a power cut, the clock display will automatically reset to 0:00 and begin to blink.

• Press the and buttons consecutively and then reset the time (within 4 seconds) using the and buttons.
  The button advances the hours.
  The button decreases the hours.

The time can also be changed in the following two ways:

1. Repeat all of the steps above.
2. Press the button, and then use the and buttons to reset the time.

Manual operation of the oven

Once the time has been set, the programmer automatically switches to manual mode.

! Press the button to restore the manual mode after every “Automatic” cooking session.

Delayed cooking time for a specified period

The total cooking time as well as the time at which the cooking will finish must be set. If we assume that the time display reads 10:00:

1. Turn the oven control knob to the setting and temperature desired (example: static oven mode at 200°C).
2. Press the button and then set the cooking time (within four seconds) using the and buttons. Supposing the cooking time is set to 30 minutes, the display will read as follows:

Release the button, and within 4 seconds, the current time will reappear with the symbol along with the word “auto”

3. Press the button and then use the and buttons to set the time for when the cooking program should end. Let us imagine this time to be 1 :00 p.m.

4. After the button has been released , the current time will be displayed after approximately 4 seconds:

When “auto” is on, it indicates that the length of cooking time and the time it is due to finish have been programmed in automatic mode. At this point, the oven will turn on automatically at 12:30 and turn off after 30 minutes. When the oven is turned on, the symbol will be displayed for the entire cooking time. The cooking duration can be displayed at any time by pressing the button , and the time it is due to finish may be displayed by pressing the button . Once cooking is completed, the timer will ring; to turn it off, simply press any button except the and buttons.

Immediate start for a specified period

By programming just the duration (points 1 and 2 of the “Delayed cooking time for specified period” section), cooking will begin immediately.

To cancel a cooking schedule already programmed

Press the button, and use the button to set the time to:

then press the manual cooking mode button .

Timer Feature

The timer feature allows you to enter a specific amount of time and begins to count down. This feature does not turn the oven on or off; it merely sounds when the time has elapsed.
When the button ” has been pressed, the display will read as follows:

Then use the and buttons to set the desired time.
As soon as the button has been released, the timer will start to count down and the current time will be displayed.

After the time has expired, an audible signal will be emitted, which can be turned off by pressing any button (except the and buttons). At this point the symbol will also turn off.

Correction/Cancellation of data

• The data entered can be changed at any time by pressing the corresponding button and the l±l or El buttons.
• When the data for the cooking duration is cancelled, the data for the time cooking is due to end is also cancelled automatically, and vice versa.
• If the oven has already been programmed, it will not accept times for the end of cooking which are before the start of the programmed cooking process.

Cooking modes

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for

• GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level);
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly.

MUL Tl-COOKING mode

All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.

TOP OVEN mode

The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.

GRILL mode

The top heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc … Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

GRATIN mode

The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven . This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.
! In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTI-COOKING

• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

GRILL

• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack.
• We recommend that you set the maximum power level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on.

PIZZA

• For best results when cooking pizza, use the MULTI-COOKING mode.

• Use a light aluminum pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided.
  For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time).

• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.
