Traditional baking.

Turn the functions knob to the symbol □ and then turn the thermostat knob (fig. 2) to the required temperature. Preheating of the oven is recommended until the thermostat indicator light switches off, to show the selected temperature has been reached in the center of the oven. This function is recommended for the foods needing highest cooking temperatures or in earthenware pots. When you want to cook your food heating it from bottom turn the function knob to the symbol □ and to the symbol □ when you want to heat the food from the top. With this cooking one tray only, centrally placed, has to be used.

Wishing a more uniform warming of the oven turn the function knob to the symbol ⚠ favourable also when using more than one tray.

Forced convection baking

Turn the function knob (fig. 1) to the symbol 📁, then turn the thermostat knob (fig. 2) to required temperature. With this function more than on tray may be used at the same time because hot air is forced by the fan around the food and between the trays and also the temperature to be selected for cooking is 10-15% lower than the corresponding value for traditional baking and the action of the hot air will do more uniformly dried and crust your food. When using one tray only the lower runner is suggested to be used in order to have easier check by the oven window without opening the door. Preheating time will be very short (15 minutes are sufficient also for very sensitive items such as soufflés or whisked sponges) and the more commun foods may be cooked from a "cold start".

Cooking time

This MULTIFUNCTION oven is engineered to offer you the best cooking way for the most common international foods. Cooking results are a matter of personal preference and may easily be adjusted to follow individual requirements by slight changes to the temperature or/and cooking time.

Using the grill

Turn the function knob (fig. 1) to the symbol ☐ when you wish to grill without fan and to the symbol ☒ for fan assisted grilling. FOR GRILLING TURN THE THERMOSTAT KNOB (fig. 2) TO THE MAX. When switching on the grill the turnspit motor also will start at the same time. The fan assisted grill functions, corresponding to the symbol ☒ is suitable for wet or thick food because the action of the hot air will more uniformly cook, and the heat will enter into the food more gradually by reducing the radiation of the grill. When use this function turn they knob on 200° thermostat.

Warning

Always set the grill grid in the highest possible rack (but not too close to the heating element: fatty foods get smoke and may start a fire) place a pan in the lowest possible rack for collecting juice. If a grease fire should occur in a pan put out the flame placing a lid on the pan: NEVER THROW WATER ON A GREASE FIRE.

Using the rotisserie (see fig.)

Insert the supports "A" of the spit into the proper holes "B" at the corners of the pan, taking care that the support with the rod "C" must be placed on the left side of the pan. Run the meat through (balancing it properly to avoid unnecessary strain on the motor) and grip it securely with the forks. Insert the spit into the hole "E" on the left support; slide the pan on the first runner from the bottom. Check always that the spit end is properly inserted in the hole "E" and the rod "C" also is properly inserted in the driving tip of the motor "F". We suggest for a better connection to turn the rod "C" a little bit when inserting into the hole "F". Switch on the turnspit by turning the selector knob to the symbol ☐. For rotisserie, turn the thermostat knob (fig. 2) to 200°C.

Defrost

Turn the function knob (fig. 1) to the symbol ✦ and the thermostat knob (fig. 2) to the OFF position. Air at room temperature is forced by the fan around the food for fast defrosting.

Remember to place the food on a tray to collect the liquid from defrosting and to remove the packaging from defrosted foods before cooking.

Thermostat indicator lamp

This light is on when you turn the thermostat knob and switches off when the oven reaches the selected temperature. It will cycle on and off during cooking in line with the oven temperature.

Oven lamp

This light is always on with every selected function by the function knob (fig. 1). When needing the inside lit up without any heating element switched on, turn the selector knob to the symbol 🌐.

Do not use abrasives, caustic pastes or sprays, coarse cleaning pads or powders. Do not use excessive water when cleaning your oven in order to avoid water passing through clefts into the back of controls panel or of the unit.

Do not use steam cleaners to clean the oven.

The oven accessories (shelves, grids, oven shelf carriers) and the oven door can also be removed for easier washing, to be done with a mild detergent solution. The slots in the front of the appliance for the passage of the air must be carefully kept unobstructed for an efficient cooling of the unit.

Once the hinge is locked, grip both sides of the door, near the hinges, then lift and remove as in fig. 7. After cleaning, refit the oven door inversely, proceeding in a similar way. Make sure the lower bars of the hinges are correctly placed in the proper slots and the rings A are released from the upper bars before closing the door.
