1. Switch the control panel on by pressing the button. The appliance buzzer sounds three times (ascending) and all buttons light up in sequence. 2. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob. The display shows: - the temperature associated with the mode, if programming manually; - “Auto” and the duration alternately, if programming is automatic. 3. Press the button to begin cooking. 4. The oven will begin its preheating phase, the preheating indicators will light up as the temperature rises. 5. When the preheating process has finished, a buzzer sounds and all the preheating indicator lights show that this stage has been completed: the food can then be placed in the oven. 6. During cooking it is always possible to: - modify the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob (manual modes only); - set the duration of a cooking mode (see Cooking Modes); - press the button to stop cooking. In this case the appliance stores the temperature modified previously in its memory (manual modes only); - switch off the oven by pressing the button for 3 seconds. 7. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from the point at which it was interrupted, provided that the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not yet started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed (for example: a cooking mode has been programmed to start at 20:30. At 19:30 a blackout occurs. When the power supply is restored, the mode will have to be reprogrammed).

! There is no preheating stage for the GRILL mode.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged. ! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided. ! The oven will begin its preheating phase after 2 seconds from selecting the desired cycle. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel and the oven door, as well as towards the bottom of the oven door.In the FAST COOKING mode, the fan is activated automatically. ! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently. Oven light The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when a cooking mode starts. When models featuring LED INSIDE technology begin cooking, the LEDs on the door light up for improved illumination of all cooking levels. The

button can be used to switch on the light at any time.

Residual heat indicators

The appliance is fitted with a residual heat indicator. When the oven is off, the “residual heat” bar on the display lights up to indicate high temperatures inside the oven cavity. The individual segments of the bar switch off one by one as the temperature inside the oven falls.

Restoring the factory settings

The oven factory settings can be restored to reset all selections made by the user (clock and customised durations). To carry out a reset, switch off the oven, then keep the SELECTOR knob turned while pressing the button for 6 seconds. Once the restore procedure is complete, a buzzer will sound. The first time the button is pressed, the oven will behave as if it is being switched on for the first time.

This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption of the standby mode. If no buttons are pressed for 30 minutes and the control panel/door lock has not been activated, the appliance automatically reverts to standby mode. The standby mode is visualised by the high luminosity “Watch Icon”. As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, the system’s operating mode is restored.

! In order to guarantee wonderfully soft and crunchy foodstuffs, the oven releases – in the form of water vapour - the humidity naturally withheld in the food itself. In this way, optimal cooking results can be achieved for all types of food. ! Every time the oven is switched on, it suggests the first manual cooking mode.

Manual cooking modes

! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C and 250°C as desired (300°C for

GRILL mode). Any temperature adjustments will be stored in the appliance memory and suggested again the next time this mode is used. If the selected temperature is higher than the temperature inside the oven, the text “Hot” appears on the display. However, it will still be possible to start cooking.

MULTILEVEL mode Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time. BARBECUE mode The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where present) are activated. The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food which requires a high surface temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see “Practical cooking advice”). FAN GRILLING mode The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where present) are activated and the fan begins to operate. During part of the cycle the circular heating element is also activated. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating elements through the forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see “Practical cooking advice”). FAST COOKING mode This mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are achieved using one cooking rack only. LOW TEMPERATURE modes This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting, preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options are: 40, 65 and 90°C. BAKING mode The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise). PIZZA modes The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. This combination heats the oven rapidly. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

Automatic cooking modes

! The temperature and cooking duration are pre-set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time - automatically. These values are set using the

C.O.P.® (Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You may start cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not. The cooking duration can be customised according to personal taste by modifying the relevant value - before cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes depending on the selected programme. The duration can however be modified even once cooking has begun. If the value is modified before the programme begins, it is stored in the memory and suggested again by the appliance when the programme is next used. If the temperature inside the oven is higher than the suggested value for the selected mode, the text “Hot” appears on the display and it will not be possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool. 27

! When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven buzzer sounds.

! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature.

Programming the cooking duration

The back heating element is turned on and the fan starts working, ensuring a smooth and uniform heat level inside the oven. This programme is indicated for slow cooking of any type of food with temperatures which can be set up to a maximum of 200°C; the programme is also suitable for heating food and to complete the cooking process. The programme is particularly suitable for the slow cooking of meat and fish, as it allows you to have softer meat and save energy at the same time. For a better energy effectiveness, when the product is turned on, the light stays on only for 30 seconds; in order to turn the light back on, please press the button BAKED CAKES mode This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are made using natural yeast, baking powder and desserts which contain no yeast. Place the dish in the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. BREAD mode Use this function to bake bread. To obtain the best results, we recommend that you carefully observe the instructions below: • follow the recipe; • do not exceed the maximum weight of the dripping pan; • remember to pour 50 g (0,5 dl) of cold water into the baking tray in position 5. • The dough must be left to rise at room temperature for 1 – 1 ½ hours (depending on the room temperature) or until the dough has doubled in size. Recipe for BREAD: 1 Dripping pan holding 1000 g Max, lower level 2 Dripping pans each holding 1000 g Max, medium and lower levels Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 360 g water, 11g salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast) Method: • Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. • Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately 35 degrees). • Make a small well in the mound of flour. • Pour in the water and yeast mixture. • Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes until it has a uniform consistency and is not too sticky. • Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a large bowl and cover it with transparent plastic wrap to prevent the surface of the dough from drying out. Select the manual LOW TEMPERATURE function on the oven and set the temperature to 40°C. Place the bowl inside and leave the dough to rise for approximately 1 hour (the dough should double in volume). • Cut the dough into equal sized loaves. • Place them in the dripping pan, on a sheet of baking paper. • Dust the loaves with flour. • Make incisions on the loaves. • Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. • Start the BREAD cooking mode. • Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill racks until they have cooled completely.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-assisted cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

! In the GRILL and FAN GRILLING cooking modes, particularly when using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTILEVEL • Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires more heat on 2. • Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top. BARBECUE • Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the centre of the rack. • We recommend that the temperature is set to its maximum level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate constantly. PIZZA OVEN • Use a lightweight aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided. For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as this extends the total cooking duration and prevents the crust from forming. • If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese to the top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.

GB GB Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

To remove oven door with soft closing hinges*:

1. Open the door completely.

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

• Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven are due to the different materials used, i.e. glass, plastic or metal.

• Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven door glass are caused by reflections from the oven light. • The enamel is branded at very high temperatures. This process may cause colour variations. This is normal and will not affect appliance operation in any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal cannot be entirely enamelled and may therefore appear to be unfinished. This will not affect the rust protection. • The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances. • The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products. • All accessories - with the exception of the sliding racks - can be washed like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe. • We recommend that detergents are not sprayed directly onto the control panel, but that a sponge is used instead. ! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

2. Lift the pull-out hooks located on the two hinges. If you cannot lift them manually, use a tool as a lever.

3. Completely rotate downwards the pull-out hooks.

4. Holding the door by its two outer sides, slowly close it but not completely. Pull the door to remove it from its seat (see figure). To re-assemble the door follow the procedure in reverse order.

Cleaning the oven door

! The door of LED INSIDE models cannot be removed.

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack. For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven door may be removed: 1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram). 2. Use a screwdriver to lift up and turn the small levers F located on the two hinges (see diagram).

5. Rotate the pull-out hooks upwards until they touch the front of the oven.

6. Push the pull-out hooks downwards, making sure they are steady and do not rotate forward.
