For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven during operation as this could damage the enamel finishing. Place your cookware (dishes, aluminum foil, etc.) On the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.

Lights
By setting the knob to this position the lighting inside the oven is switched on, e.g. use when washing the oven chamber.

Pizza(Top heater on)
When the knob is turned to this position, the oven is heated using only the top heater.

Bake (Bottom and top heaters on)
Setting the knob to the position allows the oven to be heated conventionally.

Broil
This function allows a higher temperature at the top of the cooking area, which causes more intense browning of the dish and permits larger portions to be grilled.

Keep Warm (Bottom heater on)
When the knob is set to this position, the oven is heated using only the bottom heater. Use for, e.g. final baking from the bottom

HOW TO USE THE ROTISSERIE (only available on certain models)

1. Insert the groove “B” into bend “C”;
2. Turn the plastic handle “D” anti clock wise and slide the rack into the oven runners ensuring that the rod “E” slots into the hole “F”;
3. The rotisserie rack must always be fitted in the middle of the oven (third position from bottom);
   

**** Do not broil without using the broiling pan. Important: Use always suitable protective gloves when inserting/removing the broiling pan, shelves, pans or other cooking utensils from the oven.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE: To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that

• The enameled or stainless steel parts should be washed with lukewarm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them; Stainless steel could get stained. If these stains are difficult to remove, use special products available on the market. After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry.
• The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned immediately after use, when it is still warm, with hot water and soap; The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents (for example cleaning powders, etc) and abrasive sponges for dishes or acids (such as lime scale –remover, etc…) as these could damage the enamel. If the grease spots and dirt are particularly tough to remove, use a special product for oven cleaning, following the instructions provided on the packet.
• If you use your oven for an extended period of time, condensation may form, Dry it using a soft cloth.
• There is a rubber seal surrounding the oven opening which guarantees its perfect functioning, Check the condition of this seal on a regular basis. If necessary, clean it and avoid using abrasive products or objects to do so. Should it become damaged, please contacts you’re nearest After-sales Service Center. We recommend you avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.
• Never line the oven bottom with aluminum foil, as the consequent accumulation of heat could compromise the cooking and even damage the enamel.
• Do not store flammable material in the oven.

REMOVE THE OVEN DOOR

**** Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance, disconnect it from the power supply.

**** Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

For a more thorough clean, you can remove the oven door. Proceed as follows:

1. Open the door fully;

2. Lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two hinges;

3. Grip the door on the two external sides, shut it slowly but not Completely;

PRACTICAL COOKING ADVICE

**** Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.

Some features only exist for certain models

The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best possible way.
With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal experience.

Cooking on More Than One Rack
If you have to cook food using several racks, use either the “Conv Roast” mode, as these are the only modes that allow you to do so.
When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use the “Conv Roast” mode, which allows you to cook on 2 racks at the same time (the 2nd and 3rd from the bottom). Some examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table.

Using the “Broil”
This multi-function oven offers you 2 different grilling modes.
Use the “Broil” mode, placing the food under the center of the grill (situated on the 3rd or 2th rack form the bottom) because only the top heating element is turned on.
Use the bottom rack (1st from the bottom), placing the dripping pan provided to collect any sauce and /or grease and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom. When using this mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Therefore the best results when using the grill modes are obtained by placing the grid on the lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st oven rack from the bottom.

Baking Cakes
When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Make sure you wait until the oven has been preheated thoroughly. Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping.

Pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 50℉and reduce the cooking time.

Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 50℉.

Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.

Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.

The Pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper.

Cooking Pizza
For best results when cooking pizza, use the Bake or Conv Bake.

• Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes;
• Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the grid supplied with the oven. If the dripping pan is used, this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust;
• Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking;
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.
• When cooking pizza on two racks ,use the 2nd and 4th with a temperature of 450℉ and place the pizzas in the oven after having preheated it for at least 10 minutes .

Cooking Fish and Meat

When cooking white meat ,fowl and fish ,use temperature setting from 350℉to 400℉.
For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside ,it is a good idea to start with a high temperature setting (350℉to 400℉) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the center of the grid and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat.
Make sure that the grid is inserted so that it is in the center of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savory roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

**** Cooking times are approximate and may vary according to personal taste.
When cooking using the grill or fan assisted grill the dripping pan must always be placed on the 1st oven rack from the bottom.
