The Smeg CE6IMX cooker is designed for natural gas but can be converted for LPG using a conversion kit. Always consult the user manual for proper adjustment.
How do I clean the oven of the Smeg CE6IMX?
The oven has a self-cleaning function (pyrolytic) that burns off residues. For regular cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the enamel.
Can I use aluminum foil in the oven?

What should I do if a gas burner fails to ignite?
First, check that the gas supply is on and the burner cap is properly placed. Clean the burner ports with a toothpick. If the problem persists, contact a qualified technician.
How long does the self-cleaning cycle take?

Ensure the cooker is disconnected from the power supply. Remove the glass cover by turning it counterclockwise, then replace the bulb (300°C heat-resistant). Reattach the cover.
Can I install the cooker myself?
Installation should be performed by a qualified professional, especially for gas connections and electrical wiring. Improper installation may void the warranty and pose safety risks.

2. RECYCLING INSTRUCTIONS - OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY

Our household appliances are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. Find the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations.

Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. They can constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.

Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.

Important: deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances.

Correct disposal means intelligent recycling of valuable materials. Refrigeration appliances contain gases which may damage the environment; it is therefore important to ensure that the refrigeration circuit pipelines are not damaged until the competent service has accepted delivery of the appliance.

Before disposing of your appliance, it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is also necessary to cut the electric power cord and remove it along with the plug.

11. COOKING IN THE OVEN

11.1 Description of the selected functions

ECO

ECO:

Using the grill and the bottom heating element is particularly suitable for cooking small quantities of food, as it provides low energy consumption.

SMEG CE6IMX - ECO: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - ECO: - 2

STATIC:

As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static or thermal radiation cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all types of roasts, bread, and cakes and in any case particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.

SMEG CE6IMX - STATIC: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - STATIC: - 2

GRILL:

The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results above all for thin and medium thickness meat and in combination with the rotisserie (when present) gives the food an even browning at the end of the cooking. Perfect for sausages, ribs and bacon. This function allows you to grill large quantities of food, particularly meat, evenly.

SMEG CE6IMX - GRILL: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - GRILL: - 2

SMEG CE6IMX - FAN-ASSISTED GRILL: - 2

FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM:

The combination of the fan with only the bottom heating element allows cooking to be completed more rapidly. This system is recommended for sterilising or for finishing off the cooking of foods already well-cooked on the surface, but not inside, which therefore need a little more heat. Perfect for any type of food.

SMEG CE6IMX - FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM: - 2

CIRCULAR:

The combination of the fan and the circular element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same temperatures and cooking time. Air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously without mixing smells and flavours.

SMEG CE6IMX - CIRCULAR: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - CIRCULAR: - 2

11.2 COOKING HINTS AND TIPS

SMEG CE6IMX - COOKING HINTS AND TIPS - 1

HINTS ON USING THE ACCESSORIES:

SMEG CE6IMX - HINTS ON USING THE ACCESSORIES: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - HINTS ON USING THE ACCESSORIES: - 2

SMEG CE6IMX - HINTS ON USING THE ACCESSORIES: - 3

  • Use only original SMEG trays.
  • When the tray is in the oven, the handle must be facing the oven door.
  • Push the trays all the way inside the oven. • Use only original SMEG racks.
  • When the rack is in the oven, the contoured part must be facing downwards.
  • Push the racks right inside the oven.
  • For best cooking results, we recommend placing kitchenware in the centre of the rack.

GENERAL HINTS:

SMEG CE6IMX - GENERAL HINTS: - 1

SMEG CE6IMX - GENERAL HINTS: - 2

SMEG CE6IMX - GENERAL HINTS: - 3

  • We recommend preheating the oven before putting food in. Do not place foods inside the oven until the □ symbol on the display stops flashing and the beep has sounded to confirm that the programmed temperature has been reached.
  • For cooking on several levels, we recommend using a fan-assisted function to achieve uniform cooking at all heights.
  • In general, it is not possible to shorten the cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
  • While cooking desserts and vegetables, dripping from the bottom of the door may occur. This is a natural physical phenomenon which mainly occurs when the food is placed in the oven before preheating. To avoid this, carefully open the door a couple of times during the cooking.

COOKING HINTS FOR MEAT:

SMEG CE6IMX - COOKING HINTS FOR MEAT: - 1

  • Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and the consumer's taste. • To save energy when roasting, we recommend putting the food in the cold oven.
  • We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it. Alternatively, simply press on the roast with a spoon: if it is hard it is ready, if not, it needs another few minutes cooking.

COOKING HINTS FOR DESSERTS AND BISCUITS:

SMEG CE6IMX - COOKING HINTS FOR DESSERTS AND BISCUITS: - 1

- Use dark metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.

- The temperature and the cooking duration depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.

- The tables indicate the temperature ranges. Initially, try with the lowest value (the lower temperature gives a more even browning); if the dessert does not come out well, increase the temperature on the following occasions.

- Check whether the dessert is cooked right through: About 10 minutes before the end of cooking, stick a toothpick into the highest point in the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.

- If the dessert goes flat when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.

12. USING THE HOB

SMEG CE6IMX - USING THE HOB - 1

Metal objects such as silverware or lids must not be placed on the hob surface as they can become very hot.

SMEG CE6IMX - USING THE HOB - 2

Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad taste.

12.1 Cooking zones

The device has 4 cooking zones of various powers and diameters. Their position is clearly indicated with circles and the heat is limited to within the diameters traced on the glass. Under each cooking zone there is a coil called an inductor which is powered by an electronic system and which creates a variable magnetic field. When a pan is positioned within this magnetic field, the high frequency currents are concentrated directly onto the pan producing the heat required for cooking the food.

2 3 1 4

SMEG CE6IMX - Cooking zones - 2

Each cooking zone has an inner circle. This printed circle indicates the minimum permissible diameter on that cooking zone. Pans with smaller diameters risk not being detected and therefore not activating the inductor.

12.2 Heating accelerator

Each cooking zone has a heating accelerator. This system lets the burner operate at maximum power for a time that is proportional to the selected power. To start the heating accelerator, turn the knob to the left, select the "A" position and release. The letter "A" appears on the cooking hob display. At this point you have 3 seconds to choose the desired heating position. Once the position has been adjusted between 1 and 9, "A" and the selected position will blink on the display. During the heating accelerator's operation it is possible to increase the heating intensity at any time. The "full power" period will consequently be modified.

On the other hand, if the power is reduced, turn the knob counterclockwise. The "A" option is automatically disabled.

12.3 Power Function

The power function can be used to cause each heating zone to operate continuously at maximum power for a maximum period of 10 minutes. Said function, for example, can be used to bring a large quantity of water to a boil rapidly or to broil meat.

Turn the knob clockwise and set the heating intensity on position 9. Select the position "P" with the knob and release. "P" appears on the hob display of the corresponding zone. After 10 minutes the power will be reduced automatically, returning to position 9 and the "P" disappears. It is however possible to interrupt the power function by decreasing at any time the heating intensity. When the power option is selected on a burner (ex. the front left), the power absorbed by the second burner (back left) could be reduced to provide the maximum energy available to the first. For the same reason the power function has priority over the heating accelerator. If a recipient is removed from the cooking zone while the power function is turned on, the function stops.

12.4 Operating power settings

Below is provided a table with the maximum power consumptions of the burners.

Zone number: Zone Diameter Power consumed

1 145 mmNormal operation: 1400 W
With power function: 1800 W
2 180 mmNormal operation: 1850 W

With power function: 3200 W
4 145 mmNormal operation: 1400 W
With power function: 1800 W
Total power consumed 7400 W

12.5 Cookware

Appliances of this type require special cookware to be able to work. In fact, the cookware must have an iron or steel/iron bottom to generate the magnetic field necessary for it to be heated up. Recipients made of the following are not suitable:

  • glass;
  • ceramic:
  • terracotta;
  • steel, aluminium or copper without a magnetic bottom;

To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the recipient, place it on a cooking zone and start the burner. If, instead of the power symbol, the symbol appears, it means the pan is not suitable. The pans used for cooking must have a minimum diameter to guarantee proper functioning. Below is a table with the minimum diameters for pans according to the cooking zone.

Zone numberMinimum cookware diameter
1 90 mm
2 145 mm
3 170 mm
4 90 mm

Cookware that is larger than the cooking zones can also be used, but care must be taken that the bottom of the pan does not come into contact with other cooking zones and that it is always centered on the cooking zone perimeter.

2 1 4

2 1 4

Make sure you only use containers intended for induction cooking, with a thick and completely flat bottom or, if not available, containers without a curved bottom (concave or convex).

12.5.1 Cookware detector signal

Every cooking zone has a "cookware detector" that only starts the cooking if there is a well positioned recipient with the suitable characteristics present on the burner. If the container is not well positioned or is not made of the correct material and still tries to activate the burner, after a few seconds from the burner's activation, the Symbol will appear on the display.

12.5.2 Residual heat

Each cooking zone is equipped with a residual heat warning device. After any burner is switched off, a flashing H may appear on the front zone. This warns that the cooking zone concerned is still very hot.

Cooking can be restarted even while the #1s flashing.

12.5.3 Cooking hob lock-out

When not in use, the hob can be "locked" from being accidentally turned on by children. With the burners switched off turn the burner knobs 2 and 3 completely to the left until 4 L appears on the display. Then release the knobs. To unlock it repeat the same operation: The burners' displays will show a 0 that will indicate that the burners' lock has been deactivated.

12.5.4 Circuit board thermal protection

The appliance is provided with a device that constantly measures the temperature of the electronic circuit board.

If the temperature surpasses certain values, the device will activate certain functions to lower the temperature and allow the glass-ceramic hob to continue to work correctly.

Below is a table with the operations that are activated automatically and the relative start temperature:

Operation Activating temperature

Fan turns on at low speed 50 °C
Fan turns on at high speed 60 °C
Fan returns to low speed 55 °C
Fan turns off 45 °C
Operating power reduced from Power to 9 76 °C
Reduction of power of a point for every cooking zone 85 °C
Turning off all the cooking zones 90 °C
Switching on again of the cooking zones at reduced power 85 °C
Normal operation of all the cooking zones 80 °C

Every intervention of this type will be identified on the cooking hob with a light on the power display.

12.5.5 Thermal protection glass-ceramic hob

Every cooking zone has a device that constantly measures the temperature. If the temperature surpasses certain values, the device will activate certain functions to lower the temperature and allow the glass-ceramic hob to continue to work correctly. Below is a table with the operations that are activated automatically and the relative start temperature:

Operation Activating temperature

Operating power reduced from Power to 9 250 °C
Reduction of the power of a point 280 °C
Switching off the cooking zone300 °C
Return of the power to the set value250 °C

Every intervention of this type will be identified on the cooking hob with a light on the power display.

Take care not to spill sugar or sweet mixtures on to the hob when hot. Never place materials or substances which may melt (plastic or aluminium foil) on the hob. If this occurs, promptly switch off and remove the molten material with the scraper provided while the cooking zone is still warm to prevent it from being damaged. Failure to instantly clean the glass-ceramic hob could lead to encrustations which are impossible to remove once the hob has cooled down.

SMEG CE6IMX - Thermal protection glass-ceramic hob - 3

Important! Beware of children as the residual heat indicator lights are out of sight to them. In fact, even after having been turned off, the cooking zones remains hot for a certain period of time. Make sure that children never touch the hob.

SMEG CE6IMX - Thermal protection glass-ceramic hob - 4

SMEG CE6IMX - Thermal protection glass-ceramic hob - 5

Do not leave metal objects on the hob: they could get very hot.

12.5.6 Keep Warm Function

The purpose of the keep warm function is to regulate the temperature of the bottom of the cookware to approximately 65° C. This allows for keeping food warm at the ideal power level, as well as heating slowly. The maximum duration of the keep warm function is limited to 2 hours. The keep warm function is between [0] and [1] and is indicated with appropriate symbols on the cooking zones.

13.CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The oven should be operated at the maximum heat setting for 15/20 minutes after use of specific products, to burn off the residues left inside the oven.

13.5 Cleaning the door glazing

The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent paper towels, remove stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and ordinary detergent.

SMEG CE6IMX - Cleaning the door glazing - 1

When cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent water or detergent drips from interfering with its operation or creating unsightly marks.

SMEG CE6IMX - Cleaning the door glazing - 2

Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaners for cleaning the door glazing. (e.g., powder products, oven-cleaner sprays, stain removers and metal scouring pads). Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven's glass doors since they may scratch the surface and cause the glass to shatter.

14. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

The oven may require extraordinary maintenance or replacement of parts subject to wear such as seals, bulbs, and so on. The following instructions describe how to carry out these minor maintenance operations.

SMEG CE6IMX - EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE - 1

Before performing any operations requiring access to powered parts, switch off the power supply to the appliance.

14.4 What to do if...

The oven display is completely off: • Check the mains power supply.

- Check whether an omnipolar switch upstream from the oven feed line is in the "ON" position.

The oven does not heat up: • Check whether the "showroom" mode has been

set, for further details see point "10.7 Secondary menu".

The controls do not respond: • Check whether the “child lock-out function”

mode has been set, for further details see point "10.7 Secondary menu".

The cooking times are longer than those indicated in the table.

Check whether the "power limiter" mode has been set, for further details see point "10.7 Secondary menu".

After the automatic "pyrolysis" cleaning cycle • (only on some models) it is not possible to select a function:

Verify whether the interlock device has been switched off. If it has not, the oven has a protection device that does not allow functions to be selected while the interlock device is active.

The display shows ERR 4 (on pyrolytic models only):

- The interlock device has not hooked up to the door properly. This might be because the door was accidentally opened during its activation. Switch off the oven and switch it on again waiting a few minutes before selecting a new cleaning cycle.

If the door is opened during a fan-assisted function, the fan stops:

This is not a fault. It is a normal operation of the appliance, useful when cooking foods in order to avoid excessive heat escaping. When the door is closed, the oven will return to normal operation.

15.2 Positioning and levelling the appliance (depending on model)

After making the electrical connections, level the appliance on the ground by means of its four adjustable feet. For good cooking results, the appliance must be properly levelled. Depending on the model you have purchased, the foot height adjustment range may vary from 70 to 95 mm and from 110 to 160 mm. These heights refer to the distance between the highest point of the foot (fixed part) and the lowest point (movable part which rests on the floor).
