It comes on when the automatic (pyrolytic) cleaning cycle is activated.

Advantages of induction cooking

The appliance is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone. Each generator located under the glass ceramic cooking surface creates an electromagnetic field which induces a thermal current in the base of the pan. This means the heat is no longer transmitted from the hob to the pan but created directly inside the pan by the inductive current.

• Energy saving thanks to the direct transmission of energy to the pan (suitable magnetisable cookware is required) compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the induction cooking zone to the base of the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking surface is only heated under the base of the pan; foods which overflow do not stick.

Power control

The hob is fitted with a power control module that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall set power level exceeds the maximum limit permitted, the electronic circuit board will automatically manage the power supplied by the hot plates. The module tries to maintain the maximum deliverable power levels. If the symbol appears it indicates that it is no longer possible to increase the power level for a specific cooking zone.

• Priority is given to the first zone that is set in chronological order.
• The power control module does not affect the total power consumption of the appliance.

Other parts

Shelves
The appliance features shelves to position trays and racks at different heights. The insertion heights are indicated from the bottom upwards (see General description).

Cooling fan
The fan cools the oven and comes into operation during cooking. The fan causes a steady outflow of air that exits from the rear of the appliance and which may continue for a brief period of time even after the appliance has been turned off.

Do not obstruct ventilation openings and heat dispersal slots.

Interior lighting

The appliance’s interior lighting comes on:

• When the door is opened.
• When any function is selected, apart from the function.

When the door is open, it is not possible to turn off the interior lighting.

Accessories

• Not all accessories are available on some models.
• The accessories intended to come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with the provisions of current legislation.
• Original supplied and optional accessories can be requested to Authorised Assistance Centres. Use only original accessories supplied by the manufacturer.

Deep tray

Useful for collecting fat from foods placed on the rack above and for cooking pies, pizzas, baked desserts, biscuits, etc.

Rack

Useful for supporting containers with food during cooking.

USE

Preliminary operations

See General safety instructions.

• Remove any protective film from the outside or inside of the appliance, including accessories.
•  Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate) from the accessories and shelves.
• Remove and wash all the appliance accessories (see chapter “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE”).

First heating

1. Set a cooking time of at least one hour (see paragraph “Using the oven”).
2. Heat the empty oven compartment at the maximum temperature to burn off any residues left by the manufacturing process.

When heating the appliance

• air the room;
• don’t stay.

Basic functions

First power connection

When connected to the power supply for the first time, or after power has been switched back on after a power failure, an automatic check is carried out that control turns on the indicator lights and the displays for a few seconds. Afterwards, the appliance can be used normally.

Using the accessories

Racks and trays

Racks and trays have to be inserted into the side guides until they come to a complete stop.

• The mechanical safety locks that prevent the rack from being removed accidentally must face downwards and towards the back of the oven cavity.

Gently insert racks and trays into the oven until they come to a stop.

Clean the trays before using them for the first time to remove any residues left by the manufacturing process.

Tray rack

The tray rack has to be inserted into the tray. In this way fat can be collected separately from the food which is being cooked.

Using the hob

All the appliance’s control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The relevant cooking zone is indicated next to each knob. Just turn the knob clockwise to the required power setting.

• On first connection to the electrical mains, an automatic check will be carried out that will switch on all indicator lights for a few seconds.
• After use, turn off the hot plates that were used by moving the relative knob back to position 0. Never rely solely on the cookware detector.

Cookware suitable for use in induction cooking

Cookware used on the induction cooking surface must be made of metal, with magnetic properties and a sufficiently large base.

Suitable cookware:

• Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel and aluminium with a special base.

Unsuitable cookware:

• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium, fireproof glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta cookware.

To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it on a cooking zone
and start the hot plate. If the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.

Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom which is suitable for induction hot plates. Using cookware with an irregular bottom could jeopardise the efficiency of the heating system and prevent cookware from being detected on the hot plate.

Saucepan recognition limits

The minimum diameter of the pan base is indicated by the cross on the cooking zone.

Pans with smaller diameters risk not being detected and therefore not activating the inductor.

Protection from overheating
If the hob is used on full power for a long period, the electronics will have trouble cooling down if the room temperature is high. To avoid excessively high temperatures forming in the electronics, the power to the cooking zone is reduced automatically.

Power level table
The power in the cooking zones can be adjusted to various levels. In the table below you will find instructions for the different types of cooking.

Booster function

See General safety instructions.

If a large, oval or oblong pan is being used, make sure that it is placed in the centre of the cooking zone.

Correct pan position

INCORRECT pan position

Limiting the cooking duration
The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use. If the cooking zone settings are not changed, the maximum duration of operation for each zone depends on the power level selected. When the device for limiting the duration of use is activated, the cooking zone turns off, a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot, the  symbol appears on the display.

Protection from overheating
If the hob is used on full power for a long period, the electronics will have trouble cooling down if the room temperature is high. To avoid excessively high temperatures forming in the electronics, the power to the cooking zone is reduced automatically.

Residual heat
If the cooking zone is still hot after being 91477A702/E switched off, the symbol will be displayed on the display. The symbol clears once the temperature drops below 60°C.

Error warnings
In the event of a malfunction or abnormal operation, the display shows a message containing the code associated with the error.
Error codes always begin with the letter “F” followed by a digit or letter (e.g. “Ft or F4”).

Cooking advice

General advice

• Use a fan assisted function to achieve consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).

Advice for cooking meat

• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• Turn the food to brown on both sides.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; if not, it needs to be cooked for a few more minutes.

Advice for cooking with the Grill

• Meat can be grilled even when it is put into the cold oven or into the preheated oven if you wish to change the effect of the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function (if present), we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend that you set the temperature to the maximum value to optimise cooking.

Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and biscuits

• Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: At the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.

Advice for cooking on two shelves:

• We recommend using two racks (they can be obtained from Authorised Assistance Centres).
• To facilitate the flow of air, place the moulds/ovenware at the centre of the racks and make sure that their width/diameter does not exceed 30 cm.
• Position the racks keeping an empty shelf between them.
• Depending on the type of food and the increased quantity in the oven, cooking on two levels may take slightly longer compared to cooking on a single shelf.
• We suggest using the following functions when cooking on two shelves: CIRCULAIRE and CIRCULAIRE+BOTTOM.

Advice for defrosting and proving

• Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the oven.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the appliance

See General safety instructions.

Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Ordinary daily cleaning
Always and only use specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Food stains or residues
Do not use steel sponges and sharp scrapers as they will damage the surface.
Use normal, non-abrasive products and a wooden or plastic tool, if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the enamel lining of the oven.

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob

See General safety instructions.

Clean and maintain the hob using an ordinary glass ceramic cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be removed easily. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that there is no detergent left on the cooking surface as it might undergo an aggressive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.

Food stains or residues

Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on residues after cooking; then rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Dirt, which may have fallen on the hob while cleaning lettuce or potatoes, can scratch the hob when moving pans. Consequently, remove any dirt from the cooking surface immediately. Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Use of corrosive detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.

We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.

After cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent any water or detergent from interfering with its operation or creating unsightly marks.

Knobs

Do not use aggressive products containing alcohol or products for cleaning steel and glass when cleaning the knobs, as these products could cause permanent damage.

The knobs should be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water, then dried carefully. They can be removed by pulling them out from their housings.

Cleaning the door

Door disassembly
For easier cleaning it is recommended to remove the door and place it on a tea towel. To remove the door proceed as follows:

1. Open the door completely and insert two pins into the holes on the hinges indicated in the figure.

2. Grasp the door on both sides with both hands, lift it forming an angle of around 30° and remove it.

3. To reassemble the door, put the hinges in the relevant slots in the oven, making sure that grooved sections A are resting completely in the slots.

4. Lower the door and once it is in place remove the pins from the holes in the hinges.

Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll. In case of stubborn dirt, wash with a damp sponge and an ordinary detergent.
Removing the internal glass panes For easier cleaning the internal glass panes of the door can be removed.

1. Lock the door with the appropriate pins.

2. Remove the internal glass pane by pulling the rear part gently upwards, following the movement indicated by the arrows 1.

3. Release the front pins following the movement indicated by the arrows 2
4. Then remove the inner glass pane from the front profile.

5. Remove the intermediate glass unit by lifting it upwards.

N.B.: in some models, the intermediate glass unit consists of two glasses.

6. Clean the external glass pane and the panes removed previously.

7. Use absorbent kitchen roll. In case of stubborn dirt, wash with a damp sponge and neutral detergent.
8. Reinsert the intermediate glass unit and reposition the inner glass.

9. Be sure to fit the 4 pins of the inner glass well into their seats on the door.

Cleaning the oven cavity

In order to keep your oven in the best possible condition, clean it regularly after letting it cool down.
Avoid letting food residue dry inside the oven cavity, as this could damage the enamel. Take out all removable parts before cleaning. For easier cleaning, it is recommended to remove:

• the door;
• The rack/tray support frames.

In the event you are using specific cleaning products, we recommend running the oven at maximum temperature for 15-20 minutes in order to eliminate any residue.

Drying

Cooking food generates moisture inside the appliance. This is a normal phenomenon and does not affect the appliance’s operation in any way.

Each time you finish cooking:

1. Let the appliance cool down.
2. Remove any dirt from inside the appliance.
3. Dry the interior of the appliance with a soft cloth.
4. Leave the door open until the inside of the appliance has dried completely.

Removing racks/trays support frames

Removing the rack/tray support frames enables the sides to be cleaned more easily.

To remove the rack/tray support frames:

• Pull the frame towards the inside of the oven cavity to unhook it from its groove A, then slide it out of the seats B at the back.

• When cleaning is complete, repeat the above procedures to put the rack/tray support frames back in.

Pyrolytic function (on some models only)

See General safety instructions.

Pyrolytic cleaning is an automatic high-temperature cleaning procedure which causes dirt to dissolve. Thanks to this process, it is possible to clean the inside of the oven very easily.

Preliminary operations

Before starting the pyrolytic cycle:

• Clean the internal glass pane following the usual cleaning instructions.
• Remove any food residues or large spills from previous cooking operations from the inside of the oven.
• Completely remove all accessories from inside the oven.
• For very stubborn encrustations spray an  oven cleaning product onto the glass (read the warnings on the product); leave for 60 minutes, then rinse and dry the glass using kitchen roll or a microfibre cloth.
• Remove the temperature probe, if present.
• Remove the rack/tray support frames.
• Close the door.

Pyrolytic function setting

1. Turn the function knob to .
appears on the display, alternating with the duration of the Pyrolytic cycle (factory set to 2 hours 30 minutes).
2. Press the increase and decrease buttons to set the duration of the Pyrolytic cycle.

Recommended pyrolytic cycle duration:

• Light dirt: 2:00
• Medium dirt: 2:30
• Heavy dirt: 3:00

3. Press the clock button to confirm the settings.

The preheating for the Pyrolytic cycle starts after a few seconds:

• the symbol on the display and the Pyrolytic cycle light come on;
• the display shows the time left until the end of the cleaning cycle ;
• the symbol on the display flashes.

A few minutes after preheating starts, the symbol on the display comes on (steadily) to indicate that the door is locked by a device that prevents it from being opened.

It is not possible to select any function once the door lock device has been activated.

If the function knob is turned to another function, the display shows an error message

Cleaning process

The Pyrolytic cycle starts automatically at the end of the preheating phase:

• the indicator light turns off (its regular switching on and off indicates that the temperature inside the oven is being kept  constant);
• the symbol lights up (steadily) on the display to indicate that the pyrolytic cycle is in progress.
• The Pyrolytic cycle indicator light and the and symbols on the display remain on.

During the first Pyrolytic cycle, unpleasant odours may occur due to the normal evaporation of oily manufacturing substances. This is an absolutely normal phenomenon which disappears after the first pyrolytic cycle.

During the pyrolytic cycle the fans produce a more intense level of noise due to a greater rotation speed. This is an absolutely normal operation, intended to provide more effective heat dispersal. At the end of the pyrolytic cycle, the fans will continue to operate for long enough to avoid overheating the walls of adjacent units and the front of the oven.

End of pyrolytic cycle

At the end the Pyrolytic cycle:

• the heating elements are deactivated:
• flashes on the display;
• a buzzer will sound that can be deactivated pressing any button on the display;
• the symbol and the thermostat indicator light switch off.

1. Turn the function knob to 0 to exit from the function.
The symbol on the display remains lit until the temperature inside the oven returns to a safe level (and the door lock is deactivated).
2. Wait for the oven to cool down.
3. After the symbol turns off, open the door and collect any residues that may have been deposited inside the oven using a damp microfibre cloth.

We recommend wearing rubber gloves for these operations.

We recommend removing the door in order to make the manual cleaning of the parts that are difficult to reach easier.

If the pyrolytic cycle gives unsatisfactory results at minimum duration, it is recommended to set a longer time for subsequent cleaning cycles.

Programmed pyrolytic cycle

Just like normal cooking functions, it is also possible to set an end time for the Pyrolytic function.

To program a Pyrolytic cycle:

1. Turn the function knob to . appears on the display, alternating with the duration of the Pyrolytic cycle .
2. Press the increase and decrease buttons to set the duration of the Pyrolytic cycle.
3. Press the clock button .
will appear on the display alternating with the current time plus the duration of the previously set Pyrolytic cycle.
4. Press the or buttons to set the function end time.
5. Press the clock button or wait for a few seconds to activate the function.
The current time appears on the display and the symbol flashes to indicate that the appliance is waiting to start the Pyrolysis cycle and finish it at the time set by the user.
