Start-up and use

Using the hob

Description of the heating elements

The radiant elements “1-2-3” consist of circular heating elements. These become red a few seconds after they have been switched on.

They are extremely easy to use because they are similar to the other heating elements. Please refer to table 1.

Control knobs

Each cooking zone is fitted with a control knob "5", which can be used to continuously adjust the temperature intensity level to values between a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12. Table1 lists the correspondences between the positions indicated on the knob and the use for which the hotplates are recommended.

The “1-2” hotplate control knob usually only activates the small ⏻ / ⏻ part of the hotplate. To activate the entire large hotplate, turn the knob past position 12, to the ⏻ / ⏻ symbol; a click will indicate that the entire hotplate has been activated. The temperature level may now be adjusted to the desired value, up to level 12, using the same knob.

Residual heat indicator light

This indicates that one or more cooking zones are at a temperature greater than 60^ C, even after the cooking zones have been switched off. The hob is fitted with 4 residual heat indicator lights, one for each cooking zone.

Advice for the operation of the ceramic glass hob

To achieve the best results using your hob, there are several basic suggestions which should be taken into account while cooking or preparing food.

• Use pans with a flat base so as to ensure the pan adheres properly to the cooking zone.
• Always use pans with a diameter which is large enough to cover the cooking zone fully, in order to use all the available heat.

• Make sure that pan bases are always clean and dry, in order to guarantee perfect contact with the hob and to safeguard the durability of the hotplates and the pans themselves.
• Do not use cookware which has been used with gas burners. The concentration of heat from gas burners is such that it may warp the base of the pan, and therefore the desired result will never be achieved if it is then used on the glass ceramic hob.

Using the oven

WARNING ! The oven is provided with a stop system to extract the racks and prevent them from coming out of the oven (1).

As shown in the drawing, to extract them completely, simply lift the racks, holding them on the front part, and

pull (2).

! 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. Ensure 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.

MULTI-FUNCTION OVEN

The oven offers new, different combinations of electrical heating elements; by selecting the most suitable combination for the dish you wish to cook, the results achieved will be very precise.

The various functions can be selected by turning SELECTOR KNOB to the following positions:

Symbol	Function	Power
	0) Off	—
	2) Upper + Lower heating elements	2350 W
	3) Lower heating element	1300 W
	4) Upper heating element	1050 W
	5) Grill heating element	2000 W
	6) Maxigrill (Top + Grill heating elements)	3050 W
	6) Maxigrill (Top + Grill heating elements) + fan	3100 W
	7) Lower heating elements + fan	1350 W
	8) Rear round heating element + fan	2850 W
	9) Quick defrosting	50 W

After selecting the cooking function, set THERMOSTAT KNOB ⚙ to the desired temperature.

- For normal cooking procedures using CONVENTIONAL methods (roasts, biscuits, etc.), use the function (heat from above + below).

Only place the foods to be cooked in the oven when the selected temperature has been reached and, if possible, use only one shelf.

If you wish more heat to be generated below or above the dish, turn the selector to position ( \overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\vee}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} (heat from below), ( \overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\varepsilon}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} (heat from below + fan) or ( \overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\overline{\varepsilon}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} (heat from above).

- With function “fan”, cooking takes place through the action of air which has been preheated by a heating element and which is then circulated inside the oven by a fan. The oven heats up very quickly, therefore the foods you wish to cook may also be placed inside the oven as soon as it is switched on. It is also possible to cook using two shelves at the same time.

- The “quick defrosting” function ⚙️ takes place without using the heating elements; only the oven light and the fan are activated.

- Cooking with the “grill” uses a high power level, which makes it possible to brown the surface of foods quickly; it is particularly suited to the cooking of meats, which should remain soft and juicy on the inside.

To cook with the grill, turn selector knob to one of the following positions: 🎨 (grill), 🌐 (maxigrill), 🍽 (maxigrill with fan).

While the grill is operating, the oven door must be kept shut. The thermostat knob should also be positioned at a maximum of 200^ C.

Oven light

Lighting inside the oven is obtained automatically when SELECTOR KNOB is set to any position. If you wish to switch the light on without activating any of the heating elements, set the thermostat knob to 0^ C.

Indicator light

This indicates the heating-up phase of the oven is underway; as soon as the inside of the oven reaches the set temperature the light switches off. At this point the indicator light will begin switching on and off intermittently; this shows that the thermostat is operating correctly in order to maintain a constant temperature inside the oven.

Spit - Rotisserie

This accessory should only be used when cooking with the grill. Proceed as follows: thread the meat you wish to cook onto the rod positioned across the oven lengthwise, fixing it in place with the adjustable forks supplied.

Position supports “A” and “B” in the relevant holes in dripping pan “E”, rest the groove on the rod in slot “C” and use the guide rail to place the rack in the lowest position in the oven; next position the rod in the rotisserie spit hole, sliding the groove forwards to slot “D”.

Activate the grill and rotisserie spit by turning SELECTOR KNOB on the commutator to the positions displaying the (grill), (maxigrill) or (maxigrill with fan) symbols.

The cooking mode programming options, the “delayed cooking” mode (see Cooking modes) and “delayed automatic cleaning” mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise their time efficiently.

• Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL modes: This will achieve improved results while saving energy (approximately 10%).
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they stick properly to the door and do not allow heat to disperse.

Maintenance and care

Important: The appliance should be disconnected from the mains supply before starting cleaning operations.

To ensure a long life cycle for the appliance, it is essential to carry out a thorough general clean frequently, while observing the following instructions:

Inside the oven door:

Clean the surface with a cloth moistened with hot water and non abrasive liquid detergent, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Inside the oven:

• The inside of your oven is coated with a special self-cleaning microporous enamel glaze which, at a normal cooking temperature of between 200 and 300°C, oxidises and completely eliminates all grease spots or other substances that inevitably attack the inner walls of the oven. This way, cleaning is kept right down to a minimum: as a matter of fact, you just need to rub the surfaces of the oven with a wet cloth regularly, after cooking, to remove the thin layer of ash that may have been deposited during cooking, in order to maintain the self-cleaning property of the oven intact.
• After cooking where liquid has overflowed or when the dirt has not been eliminated completely (for example when grilling food, and the temperatures reached are not high enough for the full self-cleaning action of the enamel to be performed), we recommend you leave the oven on at maximum temperature so that all grease residue and the like are eliminated.
• If, after long-term use, you find evident grease stains deposited on the self-cleaning oven walls, probably due to your failing to follow the above maintenance advice, clean the surfaces thoroughly with hot water and a soft cloth (do not use any detergents), then rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Do not remove any dry caked-on grease using sharp objects, as these could etch the self-cleaning coating.
• If the self-cleaning surfaces inside the oven are damaged or worn, due to incorrect or poor maintenance or after many years of use, you can request a kit of self-cleaning panels to line the inside of the oven. To order these, just contact an authorised Service Centre.

Oven exterior:

• Only clean the appliance when the oven is cold.
• The steel parts and especially the areas with the screen-printed symbols should not be cleaned with solvents or abrasive detergents. It is advisable to use only a damp cloth with lukewarm water and washing up liquid.

Stainless steel may remain stained if in long-term contact with very calcareous water or aggressive detergents (containing phosphorus).

It is therefore always necessary to rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly after cleaning.

Important: cleaning operations must be made horizontally, in the direction of the steel glazing.

- After cleaning, any treatments to polish the surfaces may be performed: only use specific products for stainless steel.

Important: do not use abrasive powders, aggressive detergents or acidic substances for cleaning.

Disassembling/assembling the oven door

To make it easier to clean the inside of your oven, the oven door can be removed, by proceeding as follows:

• Open the door completely and lift the 2 levers “B”;
• Now, shutting the door slightly, you can lift it out by pulling out the hooks "A" as shown in figure.

To reassemble the door:

• With the door in a vertical position, insert the two hooks "A" into the slots;
• Ensure that seat “D” is hooked perfectly onto the edge of the slot (move the oven door backwards and forward slightly);
• Keep the oven door open fully, unhook the 2 levers "B" downwards and then shut the door again.

Replacing the oven light bulb

Make sure that the appliance is disconnected from the electricity supply.

Unscrew the glass protective cover from inside the oven, unscrew the lightbulb and replace it with an identical one suitable for high temperatures (300°C) and with the following characteristics:

• Voltage 230 V
• Wattage 15 W
• Type E 14.

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

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob

Before cooking, the surface of the hob should be cleaned using a damp cloth, to remove dust or residue from foods cooked previously. The surface of the hob should be cleaned regularly with a solution of warm water and non-abrasive detergent. It will occasionally be necessary to use special cleaning products for glass ceramic hobs. First, remove all food residues and traces of grease from the hob using a special cleaning scraper, for example CERA ^® (not supplied). Clean the hob when it is warm; use a suitable cleaning product and absorbent kitchen paper, polish with a damp cloth and dry. Aluminium foil, plastic objects or synthetic materials which are accidentally melted on the hob, even sugar or foods with a high sugar content, should be removed from the hot cooking zone immediately, using a scraper. Special cleaning products form a transparent protective layer which repels dirt. This also protects the surface from potential damage caused by foods with a high sugar content. Never use abrasive products or sponges; even aggressive chemical detergents such as oven sprays or stain removal products should be avoided.
