If in doubt, do not use the appliance and contact professionally qualified person- nel. Never leave the packing components (plastic bags, foamed polystyrene, nails, etc.) within the reach of children since they are a source of potential danger. 6 The appliance must be installed only by a qualified person in compliance with the instructions provided. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for improper installation which may harm persons and animals and damage property. 7 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guar- anteedifthe cookeris correctly and efficiently earthed, in compliance with regulations on electrical safety. Al- ways ensure that the earthing is efficient; if you have any doubts call in a qualified technician to check the system. The manufacturer denies all responsibility for damage resulting from a system which has not been earthed. 8 Before plugging the appliance into the mains, check that the specifications indicated on the date plate (on the appliance and/or packaging) correspond to those of the electrical and gas mains of your home. 9 Check that the electrical capacity of the system and sockets will support the maximum power of the appli- ance, as indicated on the data plate. If in doubt, con- sult a professionally qualified technician. 10 An omnipolar switch with a contact opening of at least 3 mm or more, is required for the installation. If the socket and appliance plug are not compatible, have the socket replaced with a suitable model by a qualified technician. The latter, in particular, will also have to ensure that the cross section of the socket cables are suitable for the power absorbed by the ap- pliance. The use of adapters, multiple sockets and/or extensions, is not recommended. If their use cannot be avoided, remember to use only single or multiple adapters and extensions which comply with current safety regulations. In these cases, never exceed the maximum current capacity indicated on the single adapter or extension and the maximum power indicated on the multiple adapter. 12 Do not leave the appliance plugged in if it is not in use. Switch off the main switch and gas supply when you are not using the cooker. 13 The openings and slots used for ventilation and disper- sion of heat on the rear and below the control panel must never be covered.

14 The user must not replace the supply cable of this ap- pliance. Always call an after-sales servicing centre authorised by the manufacturer in the case of cable damage or replacement. 15 This appliance must be used for the purpose for which it was expressly designed. Any other use (for example: heating rooms) is considered to be improper and con- sequently dangerous. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage resulting from improper and irresponsible use. 16 A number of fundamental rules must be followed when using electrical appliances. The following are of par- ticular importance: +__donottouch the appliance when your hands or feet are wet + donotuse the appliance barefooted + donotuse extensions, but ifthese are necessary cau- tion must be exercised. +__never pull the power supply cable or the appliance to unplug the appliance plug from the mains. + __ never leave the appliance exposed to atmospheric agents (rain, sun etc.) +. do not allow children or persons who are not familiar with the appliance to use it, without supervision. 17 Always unplug the hob from the mains or switch off the main switch before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations. 18 If you are no longer using an appliance of this type, remember to make it unserviceable by unplugging the appliance from the mains and cutting the supply cable. Also make all potentially dangerous parts of the appli- ance, safe, above all for children who could play with the appliance. 19 To avoid accidental spillage do not use cookware with uneven or deformed bottoms on the burners. Turn the handles of pots and pans inwards to avoid knocking them over accidentally. 20 Some parts of the appliance remain heated for a long time after use. Make sure not to touch them. 21 Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol or gaso- line, etc. near the appliance when it is in use. 22 When using small electric appliances near the hob, keep the power supply cable away from the hot parts. 23 Make sure the knobs are in the “”/”;” position when the appliance is not in use. 24 When the appliance is in use, the heating elements and some parts of the oven door become extremely hot. Make sure you don't touch them and keep children well away. 25 Gas appliances require regular air exchange to en- sure trouble-free performance.When installing the cooker, follow the instructions provided in the para- graph on “Positioning” the appliance. 26 Some of the models have a glass hob cover. This could crack if overheated so make sure all the burners or electric hot plates are off before closing it. 27 lfthe cooker is placed on a pedestal, take the neces- sary precautions to prevent the same from sliding off the pedestal itself.

Instructions for installation The following instructions should be read by a qualified technician to ensure that the appliance is installed, regu- lated and technically serviced correctly in compliance with current regulations. Important: remember to unplug the appliance from the mains before regulating the appliance or carrying out any maintenance work. Positioning Important: this appliance may be installed and used only in permanently ventilated rooms in compliance with cur- rent Norms in force. The following requirements must be observed. a) The room must be equipped with an exhaust system that vents the combustion fumes to the outside. It may consist of a hood or an electric fan that automatically starts each time the appliance is turned on. nee) C1] el In a chimney stack or branched flue {exclusively for cooking appliances) Directly to the outside b) The room must also have a system to permit proper air circula- tion, needed for combustion to occur normally. The flow of air needed for combustion must not be less than 3 m°/h per kW of installed power. The air circulation system may take air directly from the outside by means of a pipe with aninner cross section of atleast 100 cm’; the opening must not be able to be accidentally blocked. Forthose appliances not equipped with a safety device for accidental flame loss, the ventilation apertures must be in- creased by 100%, with the minimum being 200cm° (Fig. A). The system can also provide the air needed for combustion by indi- rect means, i.e. from adjacent rooms fitted with air circulation tubes as described above. However, these rooms must not be common rooms or bedrooms. Detail À Room adjacent Room to be ventilated

= RH Examples of ventilation holes for comburan air Fig. À Enlarging the ventilation slot between window and floor Fig. B c) intensive and prolonged use of the appliance may re- sult in the need for supplemental air circulation, e.g. opening windows or increasing mechanical venting (if present). Liquid petroleum gas descends towards the floor as it is heavier than air. Thus, rooms containing LPG cylin- ders must also be equipped with apertures to the out- side for ventilation of gas in the event of leaks. LPG cylinders must not, therefore, be installed or stored in rooms or storage areas that are below ground level (cel- lars, etc.) whether they are partially or completely full. Itis a good idea to keep only the cylinder being used in the room, positioned so that it is not subject to heat produced by external sources (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc. ) which could raise the temperature of the cylinder to above 50°C. Prior to installing the cooker, 95 + 155 mm high support- ing feet (provided) should be fitted into the holes to be found in the bottom of the cooker (fig.F). These feet are screw-adjustable and whenever necessary should be used to make sure the cooker stands level.

fig.F fig.E Installation of the cooker The appliance can be installed next to furniture units which are no taller than the top of the cooker hob. The wall in direct contact with the back panel of the cooker must be made of non-flammable materials. During operation the back panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of 50°C above room temperature. For proper installation of the cooker, the following precautions must be taken: For trouble-free operation of appliances installed in hous- ing units, the minimum distances shown in fig.E should be observed. Adjacent surfaces and the wall at the rear should also be able to withstand an overheating tempera- ture of 65°C a) The appliance can be placed in a kitchen, dining room or bedsit, but not in a bathroom. b) Any hoods must be installed according to the require- ments in the installation manual for the hoods them- selves. c) If the cooker is installed beneath a wall cabinet, the latter must be situated at a minimum of 420 mm above the hob. The minimum distance between the worktop and kitchen units made of combustible material is 700 mm (Fig. C and D). The wall in direct contact with the back panel of the cooker must be made of non-flammable materials.

ME D 210) |£ EI El 8 # El EE È dll | he br: : 2lt 000000 © GO 00 00 Fig. C Gas connecting The appliance should be connected to the gas mains or to a gas cylinder in compliance with current Norms in force. Before making the connection, check that the cooker is regulated for the gas supply you are using. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the paragraph “Adapting to different types of gas” On some models the gas supply can be connected on the left or on the right, as necessary; to change the connection, reverse the position of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace the gasket (sup- plied with the appliance). When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator which complies with current Norms in force. Important: Check that the supply pressure complies with the values indicated in table 1 “Burner and Nozzle Charac- teristics” since this will ensure safe operation, correct con- sumption and ensure a longer life to your appliance. Fig. D Connection with hose Make the connection using a gas hose that complies with requirements set forth by the current standards. The inner diameters of the pipe are as follows: - 8 mm for liquid gas; -18mm for methane gas; When installing the hose, remember to take the following precautions: +. No part of the hose should touch parts whose tem- perature exceeds 50°C; + The length of the hose should be less than 1500 mm: + The hose should not be subject to twisting or pulling, and should not have bends or kinks. + The hose should not touch objects with sharp edges, moving parts, and it should not be crushed; + The full length of the hose should be easy to inspect in order to check its condition; Check that the hose fits firmly into place at the two ends and fix it with clamps complying with current standards. If any of the above recommendations can not be followed, flexible metal pipes should be used. If the cooker is installed according to the conditions of Class 2, subdivision 1, only a flexible metal pipe which is in compliance with current safety standards should be used to make the connection to the gas mains. Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a threaded attachment Remove the hose holder fitted on the appliance. The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment. Only use pipes and gaskets complying with current standards. The full length of the pipe must not ex- ceed 2000 mm. Checking that the connection is tight Important: When installation has been completed, check the pipe fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a flame. Once the connection has been made, ensure that the flex- ible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts and is not crushed. Connecting the supply cable to the mains Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load indi- cated on the data plate. When connecting the cable di- rectly to the mains, install an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum contact opening of 3 mm between the appli- ance and the mains. The omnipolar circuit breaker should be sized according to the load and should comply with current regulations (the earth wire should not be interrupted by the circuit breaker). The supply cable must be in such a position that no part of it can reach a temperature of 50°C above room temperature. Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that: + the limiter valve and the domestic system can with- stand the load from the appliance (see rating plate); +__ the mains are properly earthed in compliance with cur- rent directives and regulations; + __ there is easy access to the socket and omnipolar cir- cuit breaker, once the hob has been installed. N.B.:never use reducers, adapters or shunts since they can cause heating or burning. Adapting the cooker to different types of gas In order to adapt the cooker to a different type of gas with respect to the gas for which it was manufactured (indi- cated on the label attached to the back of the appliance and to the packaging), follow these steps: a) replace the hose holder mounted on the appliance with that supplied in the bag of “cooker accessories”.

Warning: The hose holder for liquid gas is marked 8, the

hose holder for methane gas is marked 13. Always fit a new sealing gasket. b) Replacing the burner nozzles on the hob: + remove the grids and slide the burners from their housings; +__unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner, and replace them with nozzles for the new type of gas (see table 1 “Burner and nozzle characteristics”). + Replace all the parts, following the steps described above in the reverse order.

Instructions for installation 9 Minimum regulation of the hob burners: turn the tap to minimum; remove the knob and adjust the regulation screw, which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady. N.B.: In the case of liquid gas, the regulation screw must be screwed in all the way. check that the flame does not go out when you turn the tap quickly from high to low. d) Regulating the primary air of the burners: The primary air of the burners does not need to be regu- lated. Warning On completion of this operation, replace the old rating sticker with one indicating the new type of gas used, which can be found in the nozzle kit provided. Note Should the pressure of the gas used be different (or vary) from the recommended pressure, it is necessary to fit a suitable pressure regulator onto the inlet pipe in compli- ance with current National Regulations relative to “regula- tors for channelled gas”.

OVEN: The 7 Cuochi oven combines the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of the more modern fan as- sisted models in a single appliance. Itis an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily and safely between 7 different cooking modes. The various features offered by the oven are selected by means of selector knob “L” situated on the control panel.

Warning: The first time you use your appliance, we recom-

mend 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. 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. “Demo Mode” disabled Ifthe message “DEMO ON” appears on the display, place the knob “L’in the O0 position and then press keys “1” to “6” in sequence to bring the kitchen back into operating mode. Setting the digital clock The time can only be set on the clock when knob “L’is in position 0. After connecting to the electricity mains or after a power fail- ure, update the time by holding down key “2” until the time

Instructions for use appears on the display again and then adjust using the keys — and/or +. Timer Feature Please remember that the timer does not control the starting or stopping of the oven, it merely sounds a buzzer when the time is up and can be interrupted at any time just by pressing abutton. To set the timer, press key “2” and adjust using keys — and/or +. The À icon will remind you the timer is on. Once the countdown is over, a buzzer will sound, and will stop doing so after 1 minute orif you press any button whatsoever. N.B.: When the display is on “end”, the timer may not be set. The oven light It can be turned on/off at any time with the oven turned off, simply by pressing button “1” or by opening the door. It always remains on during cooking. Cooling ventilation In order to reduce the temperature of the exterior of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that gen- erates a flow of air that can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel. Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently. Note: In “Fast cooking”and in “Baking” mode, the fan comes on automatically only when the oven is hot.

Warning: the appliance is fitted with a diagnosis system which

detects any malfunctions. The user is informed of the latter by messages such as “Er xy’ (xy=numerical code be- tween 01 and 99). In these cases, you need to call for technical assistance as the oven is faulty. How To Use Your Oven Note: When the oven door is locked (for example, right after a FAST CLEAN programme has been completedi), it is not possible to start cooking due to the high tempera- ture inside the oven. The display will indicate this status by means of the word “HOT”. You will only be able to cook again once the “key” symbol has gone off. Turn knob “L” to select the desired cooking mode. The oven will immediately start the pre-heating phase, during which the icon 1} will flash on the display, and the cooking temperature associated with the mode selected will be displayed: should this value not be the one you desire, you can modify it simply by turning knob “M”. Once pre-heating is complete, three consecutive beeps will sound and the icon en will come on permanently. Now you can place the food to be cooked inside the pre-heated oven. Note: the FAST COOKING and GRILL modes do notinclude apre-heating phase. Please remember that you can always do the following when cooking is under way: +__ change the cooking mode byturning knob*L”; *__ change the temperature by turning knob “M”; *__ programme the cooking time and end cooking time (see paragraph entitled “Programming the cooking mode”). +__stopit at any time by setting knob “L” back to 0. + to setthe timer

Warning: Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom shelf

ofthe oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling food or when using the rotisserie (only available on certain models). For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom rack and never place anything on the bottom of the oven whenitis in opera- tion because this could damage the enamel coating. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides. Convection Mode Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. On this setting, the top and bottom heating elements come on. This is the classic, traditional type of oven which has been perfected, with exceptional heat distribution and re- duced energy consumption. The convection oven is still unequalled when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, local stockfish recipes, tender veal with rice, etc. Excellent results are achieved when preparing beef- or veal-based dishes as well: braised meats, stew, goulash, wild game, ham etc., which need to cook slowly and require basting or the addi- tion of liquid. It nonetheless remains the best system for cooking pastries as well as fruit and cooking casseroles in the oven. When cooking in convection mode, use only one rack, as the temperature would not be distributed evenly on several racks. Using the different rack heights avail- able, you can balance the amount of heat between the top and the bottom of the oven. Select from among the vari- ous rack heights based on whether the dish needs more or less heat from the top. Multi-Cooking Mode [*] Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. The heating elements and the fan come on alternately. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire sur- face. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking tempera- tures are the same. À maximum of 2 racks can be used at the same time, following the instructions in the section enti- tled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”. This cooking mode is particularly recommended for dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those requiring considerably prolonged cooking times, such as for example: lasagne, pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, etc. Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender and a decrease in the loss of weight of the roast.The Multi-cooking mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with the additi of a limited amount of condiments, thus mai ng their flavour and appearance. Excellent results can be attained when cooking vegetable-based side dishes like courgettes, aubergines, peppers, etc. Desserts: this mode is also perfect for baking leavened cakes. Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly white orred meat and bread by setting the temperature to 80 °C.To

Instructions for use thaw more delicate foods, set the thermostat to 60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting the thermostat to 0°C. Grill Position of thermostat knob “M”: 50%, 75%, 100%. The top heating element andthe tumspit (where present) come 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. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cook- ing Advice” paragraph. Note: turn knob “M” and the display will indicate the 3 dif- ferent energy percentages which represent the minimum (50%), medium (75%) and maximum setting (100%) re- spectively. Gratin Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. The top heating element, the fan and the turnspit (where present) 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. Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sau- sages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken in a spicy sauce, quail, pork chops, etc. All “gratin” cooking must be done with the oven door shut., by setting the maximum temperature to 200°C The “gratin” mode is ideal for cooking grouper steaks, tuna, swordfish, stuffed cuttlefish etc. Pizza Mode Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as the fan, Will come on.This combination rapidly heats the oven due to the large amounts of power used by the appliance (2800 W), which results in the production of considerable heat coming prevalently from the bottom. The pizza mode is ideal for foods requiring high tempera- tures to cook, like pizzas and large roasts. pizzas and large roasts. Only use one dripping pan or rack at a time. However, if more than one is used, these must be switched halfway through the cooking process. Baking Mode Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing delicate heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods - especially cakes that need to rise - and for the preparation of certain tartlets on 3 shelves atthe same time. Here are a few examples: cream puffs, sweet and savoury biscuits, savoury puffs, Swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables au gratin, etc... “Fast cooking” Mode («| Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 40°C and 250°C. The heating elements and the fan come on, guaranteeing constant heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is especially recommended for cooking pre-packed food quickly (as pre-heating is not necessary), such as for example: frozen or pre-cooked food) as well as for a few ‘home-made” dishes. The best results when cooking using the “Fast cooking” mode are obtained if you use one cooking rack only (the second from the bottom), please see the table entitled “Practical Cooking Advice”. “Defrosting” Mode Position of thermostat knob “M”: any The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature around the food. This is rec- ommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, such as for example: ice cream cakes, cream des- serts, fruit sweets. By using the fan, the defrosting time is approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using the “multi- cooking” mode and setting the temperature to 80° - 100°C. Automatic cleaning with the fast clean function This function is designed to clean your oven thoroughly. For details on the fast clean function, please refer to the paragraph entitled “Automatic cleaning with the fast clean function”. Restoring after a blackout Ifthe temperature inside the oven has not dropped below a value that is too low, the appliance comes with a system that allows you to resume cooking/pyrolysis from the point in which it was interrupted at the time of the black-out. Remember that this function will be disabled if the knobs “L’ and “M” are turned during the power failure. Once the cooking/pyrolysis has been completed, remember to up- date the time if you want to. NOTE Please bear in mind that, for safety reasons, cooking/py- rolysis programmes waiting to start are not restored when the power comes back on.

Automatic cleaning with the fast clean function When the fast clean function has been enabled, the temperature inside the oven reaches 500°C, which is necessary to burn all food residue that has built up inside it. If you look through the oven glass, you may notice some particles that light up as they are destroyed by pyrolysis upon contact with the heating elements: this is simply spontaneous combustioi is perfectly normal and hazard- free. A few useful tips before automatic cleaning begins

1- Try to remove large scraps of food and caked-on dirt with

a damp sponge. Avoid using detergents or any other special products recommended for oven cleaning.

2- Remove all the accessories from the oven, as these are

not designed to withstand such high temperatures. In addition, some accessories could affect the efficiency of the automatic cleaning cycle by obstructing the circulation of heat along all the interior walls of the oven. The accessories can easily be washed like everyday crockery (even in your dishwasher).

3- Do not place tea towels over the oven handle.

Warning: during the automatic cleaning cycle, the surfaces

may become very hot. Keep children away from these. How to enable the fast clean function — Shutthe oven door. — Setthe selector knob to — To programme the fast clean cycle time and/or cycle end time, follow the instructions provided in the para- graph entitled “Fast clean programming”. Please note that you can choose a cycle time of between 60 and 120 minutes, depending on the degree of soil in your oven. Safety devices Given the high temperatures reached inside it, the oven is fitted with several safety devices: + _ the dooris locked automatically as soon as the tem- perature exceeds a certain value, to avoid all risk of burns; +__the heating elements are no longer electrically pow- ered, as a precautionary measure, should a fault oc- cur.

Automatic cleaning with the fast clean function + Once the oven door has been locked, you cannot make any changes to the cycle time and cycle end settings. +_lfthe temperature in appliance’s electrical component area has reached a safe value, it is not possible to start the “Fast clean” cycle. The word “HOT” will appear on the display. Wait for the cooling fan to switch off before restarting the “Fast clean” programme. What happens at the end of an automatic cleaning cycle? Atthe end of the automatic cleaning cycle, the word “end” is displayed and an acoustic signal is sounded, which can be silenced just by pressing any one of the buttons. Turn knob “L”to the “0” setting and the word “end” will disappear. To open the oven door, you will have to wait until the tem- perature inside it has dropped to a suitable value. You will notice some white dust deposits on the bottom and sides of your oven; remove them with a damp sponge once the oven has cooled down completely. You may on the other hand prefer to take advantage of the heat accumulated to start cooking immediately; in this case the dust can stay where it is: it is completely harmless and will not affect your food in any way.

Warning: to maximise the efficiency and life of the

appliance, we recommend that automatic clean is carried out with the hob off.

Do not worry if 1 the cooling fan is operating at low speed at the start of the fast clean cycle; the electrical system limiter blows when Fast Clean is in use: this is due to a mains overload (too many elec- tric household appliances used at the same time); the oven door is locked during the Fast Clean pro- gramme: this is an appliance safety device; the door Will only open when the oven has cooled completely; small stains are left on the interior surface of the oven after the Fast Clean cycle: we recommend you remove the toughest grease spots and large scraps of food before the self-cleaning cycle and that you set the cy- cle time in accordance with the degree of soil in your oven:; you see ventilated air exiting the oven for a while when cooking is complete: it is due to the normal cooling phase of the oveninterior; when using the “grill” mode, the top heating element isn't always on (red in colour): its operation is control- led by a thermostat; a blast of hot steam exits the oven when you open the door during cooking; drops of water or steam form inside the oven if you leave food inside the oven after cooking is complete; Practical Cooking Advice 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 ver- satile 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 “pastry” mode LËl or the “Multi-cooking mode” mode ES as these are the only modes that allow you to do so. When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use the “pastry” mode Ælvhich allows you to cook on 3 racks at the same time (the 1st, 3rd and 5th). Some examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table. When cooking other food on several racks, use the “Multi- cooking’mode Ex] keeping the following suggestions in mind: + _ The ovenis 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 there- fore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these racks. + _ As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th rack 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. + When cooking food that requires differing 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. + Usethe dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper; Using the “Fast Cooking” Mode Functional, fast and practical for those of you who use pre-packed products (such as for example: frozen or pre- cooked food) along with other food items. You will find use- ful suggestions in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table.

Using the Grill The “7 Cuochi” oven offers you several different grilling modes. Use the “grill” mode ) With the oven door closed, plac- ing the food under the centre of the grill (situated on the 8rd or 4th rack from the bottom). To catch any fat and/or grease that may drip from the rack, place the dripping pan provided on the first rack from the bottom. When using this mode, we recommend you set the energy level to the highest setting, even though lower levels can be set, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired level. The EFGratin”, only with the oven door shut, , is ex- tremely 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 “Gratin” with the oven door shut. This will allow you both to obtain excellent results and to save on energy (approximately 10%). When using this mode, we advise you to set the ther- mostat to 200°C, 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 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 1stoven rack from the bottom.

Practical Cooking Advice Baking Cakes When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping. In general: Cake too dry The next time, set a temperature which is greater by 10°C and reduce the cooking time.a. Cake flattens Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C. Cake blackens on top Insert it a lower height, set a lower temperature and lengthen the cooking time. Well cooked on the outside but gluey inside Use less liquid, reduce the temperature and increase the cooking time. The cake is stuck to the baking tin Grease the baking tin well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper. l'used more than one rack (in the "fan-assisted" mode) and they are not all at the same stage of cooking Use a lower temperature setting. lt is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking Pizza For best results when cooking pizza, use the [@l “pizza mode”: +__Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes +. Use a light aluminium pizza pan, placing it on the rack supplied with the oven. lfthe 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; + lfthe pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process. +__ If cooking on more than one rack (up to 2), we advise you to use the Multi-cooking Mode A, as the Pizza Mode others. would heat the bottom rack more than the Cooking Fish and Meat When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature settings from 180 °C to 200 °C. 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°C-220°C) 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 centre 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 cen- tre of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savoury roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat With lard or bacon on the top.

Routine Maintenance and Cleaning Before each operation, disconnect the cooker from the electrical supply. To ensure that the appliance stands the test of time, it must be thoroughly cleaned frequenitly, keep- ing in mind that: + _ do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance *__the enamelled parts andthe self-cleaning panels, where present, are washed with warm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them; the inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often while it is still warm, using warm water and detergent followed by careful rinsing and drying; the flame spreaders should be washed frequently with hot water and detergent, taking care to eliminate any scale; In cookers equipped with automatic lighting, the termi- nal part of the electronic instant lighting devices should be cleaned frequently (C) and the gas outlet holes on the flame spreaders should be checked to make sure they are free of any obstructions; stainless steel may become marked if it comes into contact with very hard water or harsh detergents (con- taining phosphorous) for long periods of time. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. lt is also recom- mended that any remaining drops of water be dried; On models with glass covers, the covers should be cleaned with hot water; the use of rough cloths or abrasives is to be avoided N.B.: Avoid closing the cover while the gas burners are still warm. Remove any liquid from the lid be- fore openingit. Important: periodically check the wear of the gas hose and substitute it ifthere are any defects; we recommended changing it every year.

Replacing the oven light bulb +__ Before any operation, disconnect the hob from the elec- trical supply by pulling out the plug or using the switch that connects the oven to the electricity mains. Using a narrow, thin object (screwdriver, spoon handle, etc.), remove the glass lid. Remove the lamp and replace it with one that has the same properties: - Voltage: 230/240 V - power 15W - E 14 cap Replace the glass cover taking care to position the seal correctly.

Gas tap maintenance The taps may jam in time or they may become difficult to turn. If so, the tap itself must be replaced. N.B.: This procedure must be performed by a techni- cian authorised by the manufacturer. lampadns guamnaene
