Frequently Asked Questions - DDC 707 DF DELONGHI

How do I light the gas burners safely?

Turn the relevant knob to the ignition position (usually marked with a small spark symbol) and push the knob in. The built-in electronic ignition will spark. Once lit, adjust the flame to the desired level. If the burner does not light, check that the burner cap and ring are properly positioned and that the gas supply is open.

What type of gas is the cooker pre-set for, and can it be converted?

The DDC 707 DF is supplied for natural gas (G20). To use bottled butane/propane, the injectors must be replaced. See the instructions in the manual for the injector table and adjustment of the minimum flame. We recommend having the conversion performed by a qualified technician.

Can I use the grill and oven at the same time?

Yes, but note that the oven and grill system is controlled by a single selector and a thermostat. You can use grill + fan mode if you set the selector to the appropriate function. Avoid using the grill and conventional oven simultaneously with different temperatures, as the functions are designed to be used one at a time.

How do I clean the oven cavity?

Wait for the oven to cool, then wipe the interior with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The enamel coating resists dirt; for heavy soil use a mild oven cleaner. Do not use sharp tools to scrape off residues.

What should I do if the flame fails after lighting?

This may be due to a dirty thermocouple or burner cap. Clean the burner and thermocouple with a dry cloth. Make sure the flame spreads quickly to the thermocouple. If the problem persists, contact service.

Are the gas burners protected against accidental gas leaks?

Yes, each burner is fitted with a flame failure device (thermocouple) that shuts off the gas if the flame goes out.

How do I replace the oven door glass?

Open the door and locate the clips on the top of the inner glass. Disassemble the door frame by unscrewing the side retainers, if applicable, then remove the glass panel. Replace with a new genuine DeLonghi glass and reassemble carefully. Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before starting.

Can I use the oven for roasting and baking at the same time?

Yes, the oven is large and the fan-assisted function, if used, circulates air evenly, but avoid overloading. You can place two trays if they do not block air circulation. For best results, use a single shelf position.

How do I check if the ignition spark is working?

The spark may not be visible in bright light; you can hear a clicking sound. If no clicking occurs, ensure the power cord is plugged in and that the appliance is earthed. Always keep the ignitor spark plug clean.

What are the installation requirements for this cooker?

The cooker must be installed by a qualified person according to local gas and electrical regulations. It is designed for a standard 60 cm deep kitchen unit with a cut-out for freestanding ranges. Place it away from curtains and flammable materials. Ensure proper ventilation as per the manual's clearance requirements.

ENERGY LABELLING/ECODESIGN

• Commission delegated regulation (EU) No 65/2014 (supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council).
• Commission regulation (EU) No 66/2014 (implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council).

Reference to the measurement and calculation methods used to establish compliance with the above requirements:

• Standard EN 60350-1 (electric ovens).
- Standard EN30-2-1 (hobs: gas fired burners).

USE OF THE APPLIANCE, ENERGY SAVING TIPS

OVEN

• Check the oven door always closes properly and the door gasket is clean and in order. During use, open the oven door only when strictly necessary to avoid heat losses (for some functions it may be necessary to use the oven with the door half-closed, check the oven operating instructions).
• Turn off the oven 5-10 minutes before the end of the theoretical cooking time to recuperate the stored heat.
• We recommend using oven proof dishes and adjusting the oven temperature during cooking if necessary.

HOB

GAS FIRED BURNERS

• It is important that the diameter of the pot be suitable to the size of the burner so as not to compromise the high output of the burners and therefore energy waste. A small pot on a large burner does not give you a boiling point in a shorter amount of time since the capacity of heat absorption of a liquid mass depends on the volume and the surface of the pot.
• Avoid keeping a burner on without something on it (without pot).

IMPORTANT – MAIN OVEN NOT WORKING

If the main Oven is not working, it may have been accidentally set to “AUTOMATIC” or the power to the appliance was interrupted. If the Timer is showing the letter “A” as below or the time of day is flashing, the Oven may not turn on or be delayed in its operation.

Before requesting a service call, please refer to the timer set up instructions in this handbook and ensure the timer is set to "MANUAL" operation ensuring the cook symbol 🔊 appears in the timer as shown below.

NB. A service charge will be made if an engineer is called out to re-set the timer, as this is not covered by the guarantee.

4 - USE OF THE HOB BURNERS

Hob Burners

Each hob burner is controlled by a separate gas valve operated by a control knob (fig. 4.1) which has 3 positions marked on the control panel, these are:

• Symbol : Tap closed (burner off)
• Symbol ★ : High (maximum)
• Symbol : Low (minimum)

Push in and turn the knob anti-clockwise to the selected position.

The maximum aperture position permits rapid boiling of liquids, whereas the minimum aperture position allows slower warming of food or maintaining boiling conditions of liquids.

To reduce the gas flow to minimum, rotate the knob further anticlockwise to point the indicator towards the small flame symbol.

Other intermediate operating adjustments can be achieved by positioning the indicator between the maximum and minimum aperture positions, not between the maximum aperture and closed positions.

Note: When the hob is not being used, set the gas knobs to their closed positions and also close the cock valve on the gas bottle or the main gas supply line.

NOTE: The knob and symbols may vary.

Lighting of the Hob Burners

To ignite the burner, the following instructions are to be followed:

1. Press in the corresponding knob and turn counter-clockwise to the full flame position marked by the ⚠ symbol (fig. 4.1) and hold the knob in until the flame has been lit. In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or lighted taper.

2. Wait about ten seconds after the gas lighting before releasing the knob (starting time for the valve).

3. Adjust the gas valve to the desired power.

Important

If the burner flame should go out for some reason, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas flow.

To re-light the burner, return the knob to the closed “●” position, wait for at least 1 minute and then repeat the lighting procedure.

If your local gas supply makes it difficult to light the burner with the knob set to maximum, set the knob to minimum and repeat the operation.

Choice of Burner

On the control panel, near every knob there is a diagram that indicates which burner is controlled by that knob.

The suitable burner must be chosen according to the diameter and the capacity used.

The burners and pans must be used in accordance with the following instructions:

Burner Size	Minimum Pan Diameter (cm)	Maximum Pan Diameter (cm)
Auxiliary 12 14
Semi-Rapid 16 24
Rapid 24 26
Double-Ring 26 28
Wok max 36 cm
Do not use pans with concave or convex bases.

It is important that the diameter of the pot be suitable for the chosen burner so as not to compromise the high output of the burners and therefore waste energy.

A small pot on a large burner does not give you a boiling point in a shorter amount of time since the capacity of heat absorption of a liquid mass depends on the volume and the surface of the pot.

CAUTION: Make sure the pans are central to the burner for maximum stability and greater efficiency.

Make sure the pans are not in contact with the control knobs, otherwise the flame could overheat the knobs and permanently damage them.

Caution!

The cooking hob becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children well out of reach.

Fig. 4.2

CORRECT USE OF THE DOUBLE-RING BURNER

Only flat bottom pans of the correct size are to be placed on the pan support above the Double-ring burner.

When using a WOK, the supplied wok stand must be placed onto the pan stand to avoid any faulty operation of the Double-ring burner (fig. 4.3a). The wok should not be placed directly onto the pan support without the use of the supplied wok stand (fig. 4.3b).

IMPORTANT:

When using the wok stand it MUST ONLY BE PLACED over the pan support for the Double-ring burner (fig. 4.3a). Under no circumstances should the wok stand be placed under the pan supports (figs 4.4a - 4.4b). Incorrect placement of the wok stand in this manner may impinge the flame resulting in incomplete combustion and give rise to harmful levels of Carbon Monoxide (CO).

5 - HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN (BOTTOM MAIN OVEN)

GENERAL FEATURES

Fan cooking is more economical and quicker than cooking in a conventional oven.

The moving hot air surrounds the food and penetrates it more quickly than in a conventional oven.

The oven is equipped with a circular element (2200 W) and a fan.

Note:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the oven at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob on position 250) for 60 minutes to eliminate any traces of grease from the electrical element.

Smells and fumes produced during this burn off process are not a cause of alarm. Adequate ventilation should however be provided in the room where the appliance is installed, e.g. by opening a window.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in this oven are obtained by forced convection.

A fan sucks in the air contained in the oven muffle, which sends it through the circular heating element and then sends it back through the muffle. Before the hot air is sucked back again by the fan to repeat the described cycle, it envelops the food in the oven, provoking a complete and rapid cooking.

It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.

IMPORTANT

To open the bottom door operate as indicated in fig. 5.1.

Attention:

The oven door becomes very hot during operation.

WARNING:

The door is hot, use the handle.

ATTENTION - MOST IMPORTANT

Pay special attention not to touch the hot heating element inside the oven cavity.

SWITCH / TEMPERATURE SELECTOR

Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions:

Off as per fig. 5.2

Only the oven fan is on.

The fan operates without the heating element, this function can be used for defrosting.

50 to 250

The oven light is switched on.

The oven temperature can be set between 50° C - 250° C.

The set temperature has been reached when the temperature indicator light goes off.

Several different meals may be cooked simultaneously on various shelves, as the heated air circulates evenly throughout the oven.

The hot air system cooks more quickly than conventional static system, therefore the temperature should be set 15° C - 20° C below the values recommended in your recipe books.

6 - COOKING ADVICE

STERILISATION

Sterilisation of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following way:

a. Set the selector knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.

b. Fill the grill pan with hot water.

c. Set the jars onto the grill pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the knob to position 135° C . When sterilisation has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.

REGENERATION

Set the selector knob to position 150 °C.

Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for about 10 minutes at the highest temperature.

ROASTING

To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:

• that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180°C and 200°C .
• that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.

OVEN COOKING

Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.

For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature.

Check the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate the stored heat.

SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS

The fan allows a simultaneous cooking of different foods. Different foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked together without mixing the smells and flavours together. This is possible since the fats and vapours are oxidized while passing through the electrical element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.

The only precaution to follow are:

• The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with a maximum difference of 20° - 25°C .
• The introduction of the different dishes in the oven must be done at different times in relation to the cooking times of each one.
  • The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.

7 - HOW TO USE THE CONVECTION OVEN (TOP OVEN)

WARNING:

The door is hot, use the handle.

During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.

Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

GENERAL FEATURES

The convection oven is equipped with 3 electrical heating elements:

• 2 elements (upper and lower) for normal oven cooking;
- 1 grill element, on the top of the oven, for grilling which must be done with the oven door closed.

The input of the elements is:

• Upper element
• Lower element
• Grill element

Note:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the oven at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob on position 250° C ) for 60 minutes in the position and for another 15 minutes in the mode in order to eliminate any traces of grease from the electrical resistances.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the CONVENTIONAL oven are obtained in the following ways:

a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.

b. by radiation

The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element (use with the oven door closed).

NOTE: The knob and symbols may vary.

THERMOSTAT KNOB (fig. 7.2)

This only sets the cooking temperature and does not switch the oven on.

Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 °C to 250 °C).

The light between the thermostat and the function selector will illuminate when the oven is switched on.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB (fig. 7.1)

Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions.

OVEN LIGHT

The oven is equipped with a light that illuminates the oven to enable visually controlling the food that is cooking.

This light is controlled by the function selector knob (fig. 7.1).

TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING

The upper and lower heating elements are switched on. The heat is diffused by natural convection and the temperature must be regulated between 50 °C and 250 °C with the thermostat knob.

It is necessary to preheat the oven before introducing the foods to be cooked.

Recommended for:

For foods which require the same cooking temperature both internally and externally, i. e. roasts, spare ribs, meringue, etc.

eco ECO FUNCTION (ENERGY SAVING)

The upper and lower heating elements are switched on. The heat is diffused by natural convection.

This function reduces the appliance's energy consumption, it is therefore particularly beneficial for the gentle cooking of small quantities of food on a single shelf. It is not necessary to preheat the oven and use with the oven door closed.

Cooking times may be longer than standard functions.

Do not use this function to preheat the oven.

Recommended for:

Foods that require gentle cooking. To keep foods hot after cooking. To slowly heat already cooked foods.

GRILLING

The infra-red heating element is switched on. The heat is diffused by radiation.

Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to between 50 °C and 200 °C.

For correct use see chapter "USE OF THE GRILL".

Before using the grill, preheat for about five minutes.

Always grill with the oven door closed and do not use the grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.

Caution: The oven door becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children well out of reach.

Recommended for:

Intense grilling action for cooking with a broiler; browning, crisping, "au gratin", toasting, etc.

USE OF THE GRILL

Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed. Place the food inside positioning the rack as near as possible to the grill. Insert the drip pan under the rack to collect the cooking juices.

Grilling with the oven door closed and do not for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.

Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

OVEN COOKING

Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.

For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature.
