Using the oven

! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film from the sides of the appliance.

! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Make sure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.
2. The oven begins its preheating stage and the preheating indicator lights up.
   The temperature may be changed by turning the THERMOSTAT knob

3. Only available in certain models.

4. When the preheating indicator . switches off and a buzzer sounds the preheating process is complete: you may now place the food in the oven.

5. During cooking it is always possible to:
6. Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.
7. Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob.
8. Set the cooking duration and the cooking end time (see Cooking modes).
9. Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.
10. The cooking time may be modified (see Cooking Modes).
11. 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 started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.

! There is no preheating stage for the ROASTING modes.

! 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.

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. At the beginning of the PYROLYTIC cycle, the cooling fan operates at low speed.

! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Oven light

When the oven is not in operation, the lamp can be switched on at any time by opening the oven door.

! When inserting the shelf make sure the backstop is at the rear of the cavity (see image).

Manual cooking modes

! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 40^ and 250^ as desired. In the SPIT ROAST mode, the default power level value is 270^ .

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only.

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.

ROASTING mode

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.

SPIT ROAST mode

The function is ideal for rotisserie spit cooking. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

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, 90^ C .

Spit roast

To operate the spit roast function (see diagram) proceed as follows: 1. Place the dripping pan in position 1. 2. Place the rotisserie support in position 3 a insert the spit in the ho provided on the back panel of the oven. 3. Start the spit roast

function by selecting the symbols.

! When this mode is enabled, the rotisserie spit will stop if the door is opened.

Automatic cooking modes

! The temperature and cooking duration are preset 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. The cooking duration may be modified by a period of several minutes, as specified in the description of the individual functions below.

PIZZA mode

Use this function to make pizza. Please see the following chapter for further details. It will only be possible to adjust the duration by -5 / + 5 minutes. To achieve the best possible results, we recommend that you carefully observe the instructions below:

• Follow the recipe.
• The weight of the dough should be between 500 ~g and 700 ~g .
• Lightly grease the dripping pan and the baking trays.

Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. If you wish to place the food in the oven after it has been preheated, immediately following a high-temperature cooking programme, the text "Hot" will appear on the display until the temperature of the oven has fallen to 120^ . At this point it will be possible to place the pizza in the oven.

Recipe for PIZZA:

1 Dripping pan on a low shelf level, hot or cold oven. Recipe for 3 pizzas weighing approximately 550 ~g : 1000 ~g flour, 500 ml water, 20 ~g salt, 20 ~g sugar, 100 ml olive oil, 20 ~g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast)

Using the glass ceramic hob

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

Switching the cooking zones on and off

To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding knob in a clockwise direction.

To switch it off again, turn the knob in an anticlockwise direction until it is in the "0" position.

If the COOKING ZONE ON indicator light is lit, this shows that at least one pf of the cooking zones on the hob is switched on.

Cooking zones

The hob is equipped with electric heating elements. When they are in use the following items on the hob become red.

The hob is equipped with electric hilite heating elements. When they are in use the following items on the hob become red.

A. The cooking zone with radiant heating elements.

B.The cooking zone with a hilite heating element.

C. The residual heat indicator light: this indicates that the temperature of the

corresponding cooking zone is greater than 60^ , even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot.

Cooking zones with hilite heating elements

These emit heat via radiation from the hilite lamps they contain. They have similar properties to gas burners: they are easy to control and reach set temperatures quickly, allowing you to actually see the power they are providing.

Description of the heating elements

The circular radiant heating elements become red 10 - 20 seconds after they have been switched on.

The circular hilite heating elements guarantee even heat distribution in addition to the usual advantages that hilite heating elements bring.

Hilite lamps emit high levels of heat and light as soon as they are switched on, offering the following practical advantages:

rapid heating (in relation to a gas burner)
rapid cooling
- even temperature across the whole surface (due to the circular heating elements).

They are similar to the other cooking zones on the hob and are therefore easy to use. To ensure you use the hob correctly, all you need to do is consult the cooking tables in the instruction booklet.

Practical advice on using the hob

• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

• Always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the heat produced.

• Always make sure that the base of the pan is completely clean and dry: this ensures that the pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and that both the pans and the hob remain effective for a longer period of time.
• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may have warped the base of the pan, causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.
• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone to become damaged.

Disposal

• When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection.

For further information relating to the correct disposal of exhausted household appliances, owners may contact the public service provided or their local dealer.

Respecting and conserving the environment

• You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, and particularly the "delayed cooking" mode (see Cooking modes), make this possible.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the SPIT ROAST and ROASTING modes. this will achieve improved results while saving energy (approximately 10% ).
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding the dispersal of heat.
• This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption of the standby mode.

If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, the appliance automatically switches to the 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.

Care and maintenance

Switching the appliance off

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

Cleaning the oven

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.
- 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.
- The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge which 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.
- The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
- Dirt and grease should be removed from the control panel using a non-abrasive sponge or a soft cloth.
- Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that has been left on the surface for a long time, or by aggressive detergents that contain phosphorus. We recommend that the steel surfaces are rinsed well then dried thoroughly.

Inspecting the oven seals

Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest After-sales Service Centre. We recommend that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.

Replacing the oven light bulb

To replace the oven light bulb:

1. Remove the glass cover using a screwdriver.

1. Unscrew the light bulb and replace it with a similar one: Wattage 15 W, cap E 14.

Replace the glass cover, making sure the seal is positioned correctly (see diagram).

! Do not use the oven lamp as/for ambient lighting.

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob

! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for example, products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface beyond repair.

• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and dry thoroughly.
• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable scraper (this is not supplied with the appliance). Remove spills as soon as possible, without waiting for the appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming crusty deposits. You can obtain excellent results by using a rustproof steel wire sponge - specifically designed for glass ceramic surfaces - soaked in soapy water.
• If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally been melted on the hob, remove them immediately with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.
• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a special protective maintenance product: the invisible film left by this product protects the surface from drips during cooking. This maintenance should be carried out while the appliance is warm (not hot) or cold.
• Always remember to rinse the appliance well with clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can become encrusted during subsequent cooking processes.

Automatic cleaning using the PYROLYTIC cycle

During the PYROLYTIC cycle, the internal temperature of the oven reaches 500^ . The pyrolytic cycle is activated and burns away food and grime residues. Dirt is literally incinerated.

Keep children away from the appliance during the automatic cleaning cycle as surfaces may become very hot. Particles may ignite inside the oven as a result of the combustion process. There is no cause for concern: this process is both normal and hazard-free.

Before initiating the PYROLYTIC CYCLE:

• Remove large or coarse food residues from the inside of the oven using a damp sponge. Do not use detergents.
• Remove all accessories.
• Do not place tea towels or pot holders over the oven handle.
• Turn the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.

! If the oven is too hot, the pyrolytic cycle may not start. Wait for the oven to cool down.

! The programme may only be started once the oven door has been closed.

To activate the PYROLITIC CYCLE cleaning procedure, press and hold the button for approximately 4 seconds. The TIMER KNOB may be used to select the desired cleaning level; there are three default time settings which cannot be modified.

1. Economy (ECO): turn the knob towards “-”. Duration 1 hour.
2. Normal (NOR): initial level. Duration 1 hour and 30 minutes.
3. Intensive (INT): turn the knob towards “+”. Duration 2 hours.
4. Press the button to confirm.

An end time for the PYROLITIC CYCLE (as for a normal cooking cycle) may be programmed (see Programming the automatic cleaning end time).

Safety devices

• The icon on the display, when lit, indicates that the oven door was automatically locked as soon as the temperature reached a high value.
• The STOP icon indicates that the cleaning cycle may be cancelled at any time by pressing the button.
• If a malfunction occurs, the heating elements will be switched off.
• Once the oven door has been locked, you cannot change the duration and cycle end time settings.

Programming the automatic cleaning end time

1. Press the button until the icon and the two digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.
2. Turn the TIMER KNOB towards “+” and “-” to adjust the hour value.
3. Press the button again until the other two digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.
4. Turn the TIMER KNOB towards “+” and “-” to adjust the minute value.
5. Press the button again to confirm;
6. When the set time has elapsed, the text END appears on the display and a buzzer sounds.
7. For example: it is 9:00 a.m. and the Economy PYROLYTIC cycle has been selected: default set time 1 hour. 12:30 is scheduled as the end time. The programme will start automatically at 11:30 a.m.

Programming has been set when the and buttons are illuminated. The DISPLAY shows the PYROLITIC CYCLE end time and duration alternately.

Once the automatic cleaning cycle is over

You will have to wait until the temperature inside the oven has cooled down sufficiently before you can open the oven door. You will notice some white dust deposits on the bottom and the sides of your oven; remove these deposits with a damp sponge once the oven has cooled down completely. Alternatively, you can make use of the already heated oven, in which case it is not necessary to remove the deposits, they are completely harmless and will not affect your food in any way.
