ENGLISH

according to the needs of the food to be prepared.

WARNING: make sure that the interior is completely cool before removing excess water. Risk of burns.

Tips on energy saving

The following information will help you to save energy:

1. Use dark-coloured or enamel-coated cookware, as heat transmission will be better.
2. Preheat the oven before cooking food.
3. Do not open the oven door frequently during cooking.
4. Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time. You can cook by placing two cooking containers on the rack.
5. Cook more than one dish, one after the other. The oven will still be hot.
6. You can save energy by switching off the oven a few minutes before the cooking time. Do not open the oven door.
7. Defrost frozen dishes before cooking.

Baking tips

• Use suitable metal trays or aluminium containers with non-stick coating or heat-resistant silicone moulds.
• Make the best use of the rack space.
• It is recommended to place the food or cooking trays in the centre of the rack.
• Keep the door closed.

- How to know if a sponge cake is well baked.

About 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, insert a toothpick into the highest point of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.

- The sponge cake crumbles.

Use less liquid next time or adjust the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the mixing times specified in the recipe.

- The cake has risen in the centre but is lower at the edges.

Do not grease the sides of the mould. After baking, carefully remove the cake from the tin. Use a knife to do this.

- The top of the cake is too dark.

Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake it for a little longer.

- The sponge cake is too dry.

When done, poke small holes in it with a toothpick. Then, sprinkle it with fruit juice or an alcoholic beverage. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.

- The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good but is soggy inside.

Use a little less liquid next time and bake for a little longer at a lower temperature. For wet topping cakes, bake the base first. Sprinkle with almonds or breadcrumbs, then top with the

topping. Follow the recipe and baking times.

- The cake browns unevenly.

Select a slightly lower temperature so that the cake bakes more evenly. Bake delicate cakes on a single level using the Conventional mode. If the greaseproof paper protrudes, it can affect air circulation. For this reason, always cut the paper to the size of the baking tray to be used.

- The inside of a fruit cake is too light.

Place the cake on a lower level next time.

- The fruit juice overflows.

Next time, use a deeper container.

Bakery products made with yeast dough stick together during baking. There should be a space of about 2 cm between each product. In this way, there is enough space for them to expand well and brown on all sides.

- Multi-level baking.

The food in the upper tray is darker than the food in the lower tray. Always use 3D hot air for baking on more than one level. Just because you put several trays in the oven does not mean that they will all be ready at the same time.

- Condensation forms when baking moist cakes.

Cooking can lead to the formation of steam, which escapes over the door. Steam can settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on adjacent furniture elements. This is normal.

Roasting tips

• If you are cooking a whole chicken or turkey, or a large piece of meat, season it with a little lemon juice and black pepper.
• Meat with bones takes 15 to 30 minutes longer to cook than a roast of the same size without bones.
• You should allow 4 to 5 minutes of cooking time per centimetre of height of the meat.
• Let the meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time. This way, the juices will be better distributed throughout the roast, and will not run out when the meat is cut.
• If you are cooking fish, set it to medium or low.

Tips for using the Grill mode

• This mode is ideal for cooking meat, fish and poultry, as these foods will be browned but not dry. Flat pieces, meat skewers and sausages are particularly suitable for grilling with the Grill function, as are vegetables with a high water content, such as tomatoes and onions.
• If you are going to use the Grill mode, preheat the oven for 4 minutes before putting in the food. When the oven is in operation, always close the door.
• As far as possible, the pieces of food to be grilled should be of the same thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and remain tender and juicy.
• Turn the food you are grilling after 2/3 of the time has elapsed.

ENGLISH

• Do not add salt to the beef steaks until they have been grilled.
• Add a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the dish with about 1/2 cm of liquid.
• Place the food to be grilled directly on the rack. If grilling a single piece, place it in the centre of the rack. Also, place the drip tray on level 1 to collect the fat.
• When grilling, do not insert the tray on levels 4 or 5, as this could deform it.
• The heating element switches on and off continuously. It is normal. The setting of the function determines how often this will occur.
• When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and leave to rest for a further 10 minutes. This allows a better distribution of the meat juices.
• If you are roasting pork with a crust, cut the crust crosswise and place the roast on the plate with the crust on the bottom.
• Place whole birds on the bottom rack, breast side down. Turn them over after 2/3 of the specified time.
• If cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the wings. This allows the fat to escape.
• If you are cooking fish pieces, turn them after 2/3 of the specified time. It is not necessary to do this if you cook the fish whole. Place the whole fish in the oven with the dorsal fin upwards. Placing half a potato or a small oven-safe container in the stomach cavity of the fish will make it more stable.
• How to tell if the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available in specialised shops) or do the "spoon test". Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it's hard, it's ready. If, on the other hand, you can press it with a spoon, it needs a little more cooking.
• The roast is too dark in colour and some parts are slightly burnt. Check the height at which it is placed and the temperature.
• The roast looks good, but the juices are burnt. Next time, use a smaller baking dish or add more liquid.
• The roast looks good, but the juices are too clear and watery. Next time, use a bigger baking dish or add less liquid.
• Steam comes out of the roast. This is normal and is due to the laws of physics. Most of the steam escapes through the steam outlet. Steam can settle and form condensation on the knobs or on adjacent furniture elements.

5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Accessories cleaning

Before using the accessories for the first time, clean them thoroughly with hot water, soap and a soft cloth.

Cleaning and maintenance

- The oven must be cleaned after each use. When cleaning the oven, the light must be

switched on so that the surfaces can be seen better.

• The inside of the oven should only be washed with lukewarm water and a little liquid soap.
• After cleaning the inside of the oven, wipe it dry with a cloth.
• Never clean oven surfaces with steam.
• The inside of the oven should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using a sponge or soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners must not be used.
• Any stains that may appear on the bottom of the oven will have been caused by splashes of food or spilled food. These splashes occur during the cooking process. They may be due to food being cooked at too high a temperature or placed in a container that is too small.
• You must select a temperature and cooking mode suitable for the food to be cooked. You should also make sure that you place the food in an appropriately sized dish and use the oven tray where appropriate.
• The exterior parts of the oven should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using a sponge or soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners must not be used.
• If you use any type of oven cleaner, make sure that it is suitable for this appliance.
• Damage caused to the appliance by a cleaning agent will not be repaired free of charge, even if the appliance is within the warranty period.
• Do not use cleaning products containing abrasive materials for cleaning and maintenance of the glass front panel.
• No oven cleaner or other special cleaning agents are required to clean the oven. It is recommended to clean the oven with a damp cloth while it is hot.
• To clean the side walls and the oven door:
• Remove the side guides. To do this, press the bottom of the guides and pull them sideways at the same time. Then, push upwards and pull upwards until they are level. Finally, remove them.
• To reinstall the side guides after cleaning them, follow the reverse order.

Steam-assisted cleaning function

Use this mode to remove food remains from inside the oven. This method is only effective for the removal of light soiling. It is not effective to remove stubborn stains caused by cooking.

This function can only be used when the oven is cold.

1. Make sure to empty the oven before cleaning it with this method.
2. Prepare a solution of water (85%), white vinegar (10%), and dish detergent (5%) and spray generously on the door, side walls, and rear wall of the oven cavity.
3. Pour 40 ml of water into the base of the cavity as shown in Figure 7.
4. Close the door. Activate the function ② and set the temperature to 130 °C.
5. Turn off the oven after 18 minutes.
6. Allow the oven to cool down to a safe temperature before wiping it with a damp cloth.

Assembling and disassembling the oven door

• To clean the door, remove it. Each door hinge is fitted with a locking rod. When the door is closed, the door locks into place. To remove the door, you will need to open the locking rod.
• When the hinge is not locked, the door may suddenly close with great force. Therefore, make sure that the locking rod is closed at all times. It should only be open when the door is removed.

Disassembling the door

• Open the door completely.
• Lift both sides of the locking rod. Fig. 8
• Close the door as far as it will go. Hold it on both sides, then close it again. Move it up and down and pull it out.

Positioning the door

Follow the reverse order of disassembly of the door.

• When fitting the door, make sure that both hinges fit correctly.
• When opening the door, lower the locking rod. Fig. 9

- ⚠️ If the door accidentally falls down or the hinges suddenly close, do not reach into the hinges. Contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.

Disassembling and installing the door panel. Fig. 10

• Remove the oven door and place it on a piece of cloth.
• Press the button on the inside door glass bracket with both hands. The bracket will be released automatically.
• Remove the inner and centre panes.

Note:

• If the glass has some scratches, it may crack.
• Do not use a glass spatula or abrasive cleaning agents for cleaning.

Installation

• Fit the glass (previously placed in the frame) into the door opening.
• Both the right and left sides must be aligned with the opening. When they are, snap the glass into place.
• Position the oven door.

Replacing the oven light bulb

• If the oven light bulb fails, it must be replaced. ⚠️ Risk of electric shock.

• Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.

• Place a kitchen towel in the oven when it is cold to prevent it from spoiling.

• Unscrew the glass cover by turning it counterclockwise.
• Replace the bulb with one of the same type.
• Screw the glass cover back on.
• Remove the tea towel and switch on the circuit breaker.

Periodic inspections

In addition to keeping the oven clean, you should:

• Conduct regular inspections. After the warranty period has expired, the oven must be inspected by a service centre at least once every two years.
• Repair any operational faults.

Warning

All repairs must be carried out by qualified personnel.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING

• The oven may malfunction during operation. Please check the list before contacting the official Cecotec Technical Support Service. You may be able to repair some faults yourself.
• Normal operation:
• When using the oven for the first time, it may release a peculiar smell and smoke for a few hours. Therefore, we recommend that you run it for one hour with nothing inside. After this time, allow it to cool and clean it.
• When the oven is in operation, you may hear some crackling, this is due to the metal bottom of the oven.
• If the food to be heated has some moisture in it, the heat emission orifice may give off steam during operation.
• The fan will start to run 15 minutes after the oven is switched on. Even if the oven is off, the fan will continue to run for 35 minutes.
• Preheat the oven before putting in the food.
• If you are going to bake for a long period of time, you can turn off the oven before the time is up. This will use the residual heat to finish cooking.
