Initially use the oven

This multi-function oven combines the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of the more modern fan assisted models in a single appliance.
It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily and safely between 5 different cooking modes. The various features offered by the oven are selected by means of selector knob “B” and thermostat “C” situated on the control panel.

Notice:
Some modes feature the pull-push knob, to use the special knob, users have to push it out first, then turn it around to their desired function/temperature/cooking time. Once the setting is finished, the ovens will start to work no matter knob still stands out or is pushed in the position.

Notice:
This first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door and let the room air in. The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed.

Notice:
Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling food. For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Always place your cookware (Dishes, aluminum foil, etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.

Defrost
The fan runs without heat to reduce the defrosting time of frozen foods. The time required to defrost the food will depend on the room temperature, the quantity, and the type of food.

Circular element with fan
Default temperature: between 50ºC and 250ºC This baking method uses the circular element while the heat is distributed by the fan (“Pure convection”), making it faster and more economical. This feature is useful for baking different types of food at different levels simultaneously, preventing the transfer of odors and tastes from one mode to another.

Half grill
Pre-set temperature: between 50℃ and 250℃ The top central 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: beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc… Some grilling examples are included in the “practical cooking advice” paragraph.

Fan-assisted half Grill
Pre-set temperature: between 50℃ and 200℃. The top central heating element and fan come on. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through the 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. Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamp chops, chicken in a spicy sauce, quail, pork chops, etc.

The oven light
Set knob “B ” to the symbol to turn it on. It lights the oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating elements in the oven come on.

Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, some models are equipped with a cooling fan that comes on automatically when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard existing between the oven door and the control panel.

How to operate your oven

How to keep your oven in the shape

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

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

1. Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.
2. The inside of the oven and stainless steel parts should preferably be cleaned after use, when it is slowly cooled to room temperature, with damp soft cloth containing soap; then the soap should be wiped 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 and render stainless steel to get stained. 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.
3. If you use your oven for an extended period of time, condensation may form. Dry it using a soft cloth.
4. 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 contact your nearest after-sales service centre. We recommend you avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.
5. Never line the oven bottom with aluminum foil, as the consequent accumulation of heat could compromise the cooking and even damage the enamel.
6. Clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.
7. 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 the shattering of the glass.

How to remove the oven door

For a more thorough clean, you can remove the oven door, and proceed as follows:

Open the door fully.;

1. Lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two hinges, be sure the lockers must be on the position shown on the step.1
2. Pull the door towards you, pulling it out of its seat;
3. Push the latch on both sides and pull the bar out.
4. Remove the door glass accordingly
5. Assemble the door by following the above procedures backward.

Replacing the oven lamp

1. Warning: Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of
   electric shock

2. Remove the glass cover of the lamp holder;

3. Remove the lamp and replace it with a lamp resistant to high temperatures (300C) with the following characteristics:

   • Voltage: 220-240V
   • Wattage 25W
   • Lamp-holder type: E14

4. Screw the glass cover and reconnect the oven to the mains power supply

Practical cooking advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives that 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 that may be varied according to your own personal experience.
Preheating If the oven must be preheated(this is generally the case when cooking leavened foods), the “fan-assisted” mode can be used to reach the desired temperature as quickly as possible in order to save on energy. Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.

Cooking on more than one rack
If you have to cook on more than one rack at the same time, use only the “fan-assisted mode” which is the only one that is appropriate for this type of cooking.

1. the oven is fitted with 5 racks. During fan-assisted cooking, use two of the three central racks; the lowest and highest racks receive the hot air directly and therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these racks.
2. As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th racks from the bottom, placing the foodstuffs that require greater heat on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when cooking meat roasts together with other food, place the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.
3. When cooking foodstuffs that require different times and temperatures, set a temperature that is somewhere between the two temperatures required, place the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom, and take the food requiring less time out of the oven first.
4. Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper;

Using the grill
This multi-function oven offers you 2 different grilling modes only and exclusively with the oven door shut.

Use the “grill ” mode , placing the food under the center of the grill because only the central part of 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 can not use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Setting a “fan-assisted grill” , is extremely useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the distribution of heat makes it possible not only to brown the surface but also to cook the bottom part. Moreover, it can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin finish to pasta bakes, for example. When using this mode, place the grid on the 2nd or 3rd oven rack from the bottom (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and thus smoke from forming, place a dripping pan on the 1st rack from the bottom.

Important: always use the grill with the oven door shut
This will allow you both to obtain excellent results and to save on energy (approx 10%). When using this mode, we advise you to set the thermostat to 200℃, as it is the most efficient way to use the grill, which is based on the use of infrared rays. However, this does not mean you can not use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Baking cakes
When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Make sure you wait until the oven has been preheated thoroughly ( the read light “E” will turn off). Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping. In general:

• The pastry is too dry
  Increase the temperature by 10℃ and reduce the cooking time

• Pastry dropped
  Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10℃

• The 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.

• I used more than one level (in the function “ventilated oven”) and they are not all at the same cooking point.

• Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking pizza
For the best results when cooking pizza, use the “fan-assisted” mode.

1. Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes;
2. 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.
3. Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking.
4. If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.
5. When cooking pizza on two racks, use the 2nd and 4th with a temperature of 220℃ 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 settings from 180℃ to 220℃. 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 (200℃-220℃) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterward. 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 roast (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on top.
