Thank you for choosing our product. This appliance is easy to use; read this handbook carefully before installing and using it, however. You will find the correct indications for the best installation, use and maintenance of the product.

• Very important: keep this instruction booklet with the appliance in case you pass it on to someone else.
• This appliance is class designed for non-professional use by private individuals at home. It must be used by adults. Do not allow children to play near it. Supervise children when it is being used so that they do not touch hot surfaces and are not near the appliance while it is in use.
• The product installation must be performed by competent and qualified installers who are aware of the installation regulations in force.
• Before maintenance or cleaning disconnect the appliance from the mains and wait for it to cool down.
• The user must not change the appliance supply cable. For replacement contact only a qualified engineer.
• When the grill is on all the accessible elements are hot, hence, keep children away from these elements.
• A device for lowering the door temperature is available upon request. This device is recommended when children are present during the oven working, and can be required to our Technical After-Sale Service (if not present in the terms of sale) Code R00600001 specifying the right model of the product.
• For any repairs always contact an authorised Technical Customer Service Centre and ask for original spare parts. Repairs by untrained people can lead to damage.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The appliances are provided with a three-pole feeding cable and work with alternate current and single-phase voltage of 220...240V - 50...60Hz. The grounding conductor of the cable is marked with the colours yellow/green.

CONNECTION OF THE FEEDING CABLE TO THE MAINS

Connect the feeding cable of the oven to a plug suitable for the load indicated on the rating plate of the product (fig. 1 and 2). In case of a direct connection to the mains (cable without plug), it is necessary to insert a suitable omnipolar switch before the appliance, with minimum opening between contacts of 3mm (the grounding wire should not be interrupted by the switch).

Before connecting to the mains, make sure that:

• the electrical counter, the safety valve, the feeding line and the socket are adequate to withstand the maximum load required (see rating plate).
• the supply system is regularly grounded, according to the regulations in force.
• the socket or the omnipolar switch can easily be reached after the installation of the oven
• after carrying out the connection to the mains, check that the supplying cable does not come into contact with parts subject to heating.
• never use reductions, shunts, adaptors which can cause overheating or burning (fig.3).

The manufacturer is not liable for any direct or indirect damage caused by faulty installation or connection. It is therefore necessary that all installation and connection operations are carried out by qualified personnel complying with the local and general regulations in force.

INSERTION AND ASSEMBLY

Insert the oven into the opening of the furniture, resting it on the base and pushing it as far as the ledge of the side stanchions against the shoulder of the piece of furniture. For the dimensions of the oven see illustration.

• Open the door and fix the oven with four wood screws to be screwed up through the holes in the side stanchions of the oven (fig. 4)
• The sides and the base surface where the oven is to be installed should be milled as shown in fig. 5 to allow a safe air intake and a free air circulation around the oven, thus granting its good operation and avoiding damages to the furniture. Pay attention to fix the ovens in an absolutely firm way, as above indicated, and to insulate the electrical elements in order to avoid an eventual contact with metallic parts.

Moreover, the bonding agent joining the rolled sections to the piece of furniture has to stand temperatures no lower than 90^ to avoid deformations and coating disjunction. In case a plane with electrical plate is inserted, the electrical connection of the plane and that of the oven should be carried out separately, both for electrical reasons and to facilitate the frontal extractibility of the oven.

Once the electrical connection has been carried out, apply voltage to the oven only after installing it.

Before using the oven, we suggest to:

• remove the special film covering the oven door glass (when provided)
• heat the empty oven at max. temperature for 45 minutes (to remove unpleasant smell and smoke caused by working residues and by the thermal insulation)
• carefully clean inside the oven with soapy water and rinse it (fig. 6).

IMPORTANT: When running, the front side of the appliance gets quite hot. See that children do not get near the oven.

This appliance complies with EEC Specification:

• 73/23 + 93/68 (low voltage equipment)
• 89/336 (electromagnetic compatibility)
• 89/109 (components coming in contact with foodstuffs)

COMPONENT OPERATION

MINUTE-COUNTER

To use the minute-counter, wind up the ringer rotating the knob clockwise by one complete rotation. Then turn it backwards until the chosen time is reached (max. 60 minutes). When the preset time has elapsed, the acoustic signal starts up. Upon the acoustic signal the minute-counter does not interrupt the functioning of the oven.

END-OF-COOKING TIMER

The end-of-cooking timer, adjustable from 0 to 120 minutes, is used to programm the cooking end and to switch off the oven. To use it, rotate first the knob clockwise by one click onto position; then, wind up the ringer by further rotating the knob by a nearly complete rotation; finally, turning it backwards, set the desired time. Once the preset time has elapsed, the acoustic signal starts up and the oven is automatically switched off. To switch the oven to the manual operation, thus excluding the timer, turn the knob to its initial position by rotating it counterclockwise by one click until the symbol of the control board matches the reference on the knob.

TIMER

To programme the timer, press and turn the knob leftwards until it coincides with the hour. (If the knob is turned rightwards, a safety mechanism protects the elements of the timer).

COOKING TIMER

To programme the cooking time (adjustable from 0 to 180 minutes), turn the knob anticlockwise, but without exerting a pressure and until the disc's window, or the hand, coincides with the requested cooking time. The oven is disconnected and the continuous bell is activated when the preset time is over. To stop the bell, turn the knob leftwards without exerting a pressure, until the port or the hand coincides with symbol

ELECTROMECHANICAL PROGRAMMER

It is used to programme the oven start and stop. The programmer is fitted with an electric timer for displaying the hour. Displays the programmer controls: use knobs A, B, and adjusting ring C, to carry out the necessary adjustments, such as:

Knob A:

Turn this knob clockwise to correct the time of the timer. (This is done when installing the appliance, when the current is cut, advance and lag, and so on).

Knob B:

Press and turn this knob clockwise to preset the cooking start time on dial F.

Adjusting ring C:

Turn this ring clockwise to preset the following:

• cooking time (210 minutes max)
• manual operation of the oven (position)
• acoustic signal cut off (position )

These signals appear on dial E

Manual operation

Programming the oven may not be necessary. In this case however, turn programmer

adjusting ring C clockwise until symbol coincides with dial E.

When adjusting the timer, check to make sure that the hour set on the timer is synchronized with the hour set on dial F.

Semiautomatic operation of the oven

Manual cooking start, programmed cooking stop

• preset the food to be cooked
• turn adjusting ring C clockwise and preset the required cooking time on dial E.
• turn the thermostat knob until the required temperature is reached and turn the selector knob on the operating function.

When the cooking time is over a continuous acoustic signal warns to blow off the oven.

(To cut off this signal, turn adjusting ring C clockwise, until symbol coincides with the index of dial E).

Automatic operation of the oven

• Prepare the food to be cooked
• Press and turn knob B clockwise, until the required cooking start time is preset on dial F
• Turn adjusting ring C clockwise, until the time selected for stopping cooking is preset on dial E
• Turn the thermostat knob to reach the required temperature value and the temperature of the selector for the functions.

At the end of the cooking time a continuous acoustic signal warns to blow off the oven .

(To cut off this signal, turn adjusting ring C clockwise, until symbol coincides with the index of dial E).

Important

To cut off the programmed cooking time and to blow off the oven before the preset time, turn adjusting ring C clockwise, until symbol "0" is displayed on dial E.

Then put off the acoustic signal as described above.

If cooking must be completed manually, turn adjusting ring C clockwise, until symbol appears on dial E.

Timing may be programmed up to 12 hours in advance. (Ex: the number 8 is used to indicate both 8 a.m. and 8 p.m). Hence cooking can only be programmed 12 hours ahead maximum.

The automatic cooking does not present any difference from the manual cooking, as in this last case, the cooking time is preset by the programmer.

For automatic cooking it is preferable to use foods which do not require special care.

PILOT LIGHT OF THE THERMOSTAT (^) (if any)

It comes on any time the thermostat settles the cooking temperature inside the oven and it is switched off when the oven reaches the preset temperature.

PILOT LIGHT FOR THE OPERATION (\~) (if any)

It signals that the appliance is powered and stays on in all working positions.

SAFETY THERMOSTAT

It cuts out the electric supply for preventing possible overheatings when the appliance is not correctly used. In this case, wait that the oven cools down before using it again. On the other hand, if a fault is present on the appliance's components, we advise calling the Technical Assistance Service.

COOLING MOTOR

The equipment comes with a motor for cooling the inside elements. This motor starts automatically when using the oven.

OVEN COOKINGS

For a perfect cooking it is necessary to pre-heat the oven to the preset cooking temperature.

Only vary fat meat can be placed into a cold oven. Never use low-edged containers nor trays as baking-pan for roasts (fig. 7), in order to soil the minimum possible the walls of the oven, thus preventing fat splashes, sauce burning and smoke production. Use instead high-edged containers, preferably terracotta containers, put on the grate at about half the height of the oven. The table shows some examples of how to set the thermostat and the cooking time. The cooking times vary according to the type of food, its homogeneity and volume. We are sure that, after a few endeavours, the experience will suggest possible variations to the values shown on the table.

Practical hints to save energy

The oven can be switched off some minutes before cooking end; the residual temperature is enough to complete cooking. Open the oven door only when it is absolutely necessary; to check the cooking phase, look through the glass (the oven lamp is always on).

GRILL COOKINGS

To cook on the grill or on the grate, pre-heat the oven for about 5 minutes. During grill operation the heat comes from above; it is based on the infrared radiation and is fit for low thickness meat and for toasts. The meat and the fish to be grilled are to be slightly oiled and always placed on the grate; this is to be arranged on the nearest or on the farthest guide from the grill element, according to the thickness of the meat to be cooked. The table shows some examples of cooking times and food positions. The cooking times vary according to the type of food, its homogeneity and volume. Besides the door of the oven should be kept ajar to give free way to the vapours, inserting the heat shelter (fig. 8 for models equipped with heat shelter) and always positioning the tray under the grate to prevent fat dripping.

Caution: Remove the heat shelter only when it is cold. Prudence is recommended when using the grill: keep children away.

USE OF THE ROASTING-JACK

Spit the food to be roasted, taking care that the food is tightly hold between the two forks, balance food well in order to avoid useless stress on the roasting-jack motor. Insert the bar of the roasting jack into the hole of the driving shaft on the oven wall, making sure of the good insertion of the rear extremity.

Lean the whole on the supporting grate by means of the collar of the bar of the roasting jack placed near the handgrip (fig. 9). Put the drops-pan onto the lower guide. Remove the handgrip of the bar during cooking. The handgrip only serves to facilitate the extraction of the food at cooking end. Leave the oven door ajar fixing the heat shelter

(fig. 8 for models equipped with heat shelter) and turn the grill on. With this type of use, when the thermostat disconnects the resistance (as the preset temperature has been reached), the roasting-jack motor stops turning as well, and will restart when connecting the resistance.

General cleaning

To keep the characteristics of brightness of the enamelled parts for a long time it is necessary to clean the oven after each cooking. Once the oven is cold, you will be able to easily remove the fat deposits by means of a sponge or a cloth damp with warm soapy water and eventually a detergent to be found on the market. Never use abrasive cloths or sponges, that could irreparably damage the enamel. On white ovens even the parts of the dash board such as handgrip and knob have to be cleaned each time because they may become yellow due to the emissions of fat vapours. After the use, rinse thoroughly with water the parts in stainless steel and dry them with a soft cloth or with a bockskin. In case of persistent stain, use the normal non-abrasive cleaning agents or one of the specific products for stainless steel or some warm vinegar. Clean the door glass only with warm water, avoiding the use of rough cloths.

"Do not use jet of steam for cleaning."

Ovens with facility to lower grill for cleaning purposes (fig.10)

1 Warning: ensure that all controls are in the "OFF" position and wait for the grill element cooling.
2 Support the front of the grill element while you remove the knurled screw retaining the element.
3 Lower the front of the element carefully to the rest position.
4 When cleaning the oven take care to not apply any forces to the grill element
5 When the cleaning is complete, carefully remove any cleaning chemicals and water from the grill element.
6 Carefully raise the front of the element into position and secure with the knurled screw.

NEVER USE THE OVEN WITH THE GRILL ELEMENT HANGING DOWN!

Cleaning the oven door

The inside glass of the oven can be easily removed for cleaning purposes unscrewing, by means of a coin or a screwdriver, the screws fixing it to the counter-door.

Hooking and unhooking the oven's door

Unhooking the doors.

1. Set the oven's door wide open.
2. Lift the hinge jumpers by your thumb and index fingers, then turn them fully outwards to the end of stroke (Fig.A).
3. Turn the door towards the closure position and lay it on the jumpers: in this way the hinge's spring results as blocked. By fully closing the door the hinges are unhooked from the connection slits which are integral with the oven's muffle (sequence 1,2,3 of fig.B).

Hooking the doors

1. Insert the door by hooking the hinges to the connection slits set on the muffle front.
2. Fully open the door when inserted, then push and turn the cross connections which fasten the springs full scale in the oven direction.
3. Close the door and check its correct operation.

Replacing the oven bulb

Once the oven has been electrically disconnected, unscrew the glass protection cap and the bulb (fig. 11), replacing it with another one suitable for high temperatures (300^) having the following characteristics:

Voltage: 230 V

Power: 15 W

Socket: E14

Reassemble the glass cap and reconnect the oven.

Catalytic self-cleaning panels

Catalytic self-cleaning panels covering the oven walls can be mounted in all our ovens. These special panels to be fixed to the side and the rear walls are coated with a special microporous catalytic enamel, that gradually oxidates and vaporizes oil and fat splashes by eliminating them during cookings over 200^ . If the oven is not clean after having cooked very fat food, let it function at the highest temperature for the time necessary to make it clean (max. 1 hour). The self-cleaning panels must not be washed nor cleaned with abrasive products containing acids or alkalis, but only regularly brushed with a cloth soaked in water. These panels can be purchased at the nearest dealer or Service Centre.
