Description of the appliance Overall view Control panel

Start-up and use ! The first time you use your appliance, heat the emptyoven with its door closed at its maximum temperaturefor at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is wellventilated before switching the oven off and openingthe oven door. The appliance may produce a slightlyunpleasant odour caused by the burning away ofprotective substances used during the manufacturingprocess. Starting the oven 1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning theSELECTOR knob.2. The oven will start the preheating phase, on thecontrol panel the indicator light PREHEATING willblink.3. Select the desired temperature with theTHERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table forcooking modes and the suggested cookingtemperatures ( see Cooking Modes

4. When preheating is finished, the COOKING UNDERWAY indicator light will stay on: place the food in theoven.5. You may do the following during cooking:- change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob - change the temperature by turning theTHERMOSTAT knob- stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the“0” position.6. In case of a blackout, if the oven was alreadyoperating, an automatic system within the appliancewill reactivate the cooking mode from where it wasinterrupted as long as the temperature did not dropbelow a certain level.! There is no preheating in the BARBECUE mode.! Never put objects directly on the oven bottom toavoid damaging the enamel coating.! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.Cooling ventilationIn order to cool down the external temperature of theoven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan thatblows out air between the control panel and the ovendoor.Once the cooking has been completed, the coolingfan remains on until the oven has cooled downsufficiently. In the BAKING mode, the cooling fan goeson only when the oven is hot. At the beginning of theFAST CLEAN modes, the cooling fan operates at lowspeed.!

Cooking modes Cooking modes A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for the following modes

• BARBECUE (recommended: set only to MAX power level)

• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C). TRADITIONAL OVEN mode Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly. MULTI-COOKING mode All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular), as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time. BARBECUE mode The top heating element comes on. The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food that requires high surface temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. GRATIN mode The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. PIZZA mode The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly from the bottom element. If you use more than one rack simultaneously, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process. BAKING mode The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing the distribution of heat delicately and uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods such as cakes that need to rise and to prepare certain tartlets on 3 shelves simultaneously. FAST CLEAN mode This mode cleans the oven automatically and thoroughly by pyrolysis ( see Maintenance and care

! The default setting is 90 minutes. INTENSIVE FAST CLEAN mode This mode cleans the oven automatically and thoroughly by pyrolysis ( see Maintenance and care

! The default setting is 120 minutes. Practical cooking advice ! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan- assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods. ! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTI-COOKING

• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more heat on 2.

• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top. BARBECUE

• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack.

• We recommend that you set the maximum power level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on. PIZZA MODE

• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided. For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time).

• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.18

• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a Service Centre ( see Assistance

• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.

• The appliance should not be operated by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These individuals should, at the very least, be supervised by someone who assumes responsibility for their safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to the operation of the appliance.

• Do not let children play with the appliance. Disposal

• Observe local environmental standards when disposing packaging material for recycling purposes. Observe existing legislation when disposing of the old appliance.

• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance. Respecting and conserving the environment

• By using the appliance in the hours between late afternoon and early morning, you can help reduce the energy consumption, especially when using the FAST CLEAN modes.

• Always keep the oven door closed when using the BARBECUE and GRATIN mode to attain best results and to save 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.20

Switching the appliance off Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it. Cleaning the appliance

• The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap. If these stains are difficult to remove, use only specialised products. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances.

• Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned after each use, when it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

• The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery (even in your dishwasher). ! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance. Cleaning the oven door Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack. To clean more thoroughly, you can remove the oven door.

1. Open the oven door fully

2. Lift up and turn the small

levers located on the two hinges ( see diagram

Automatic cleaning with the FAST CLEAN function With the FAST CLEAN modes, the internal temperature of the oven reaches 500°C. The pyrolysis process is activated and burns away food and grime residues. Keep children away from the appliance during the automatic cleaning cycle as surfaces may become very hot. Particles may ignite inside the oven due to the spontaneous combustion process. Do not worry, this process is both normal and hazard-free. Before initiating the FAST CLEAN modes:

• Remove large or course food residues from inside of the oven using a damp sponge. Do not use detergents.

• Remove all accessories.

• Do not place tea towels or pot holders over the oven handle. ! The programme may only be started once the oven door has been closed. To enable the FAST CLEAN NORMAL mode (90 min.), turn the SELECTOR knob to

! Select the FAST CLEAN INTENSIVE mode only when the oven is exceptionally soiled. Safety devices

• The door is locked automatically as soon as the temperature exceeds a certain value.

• Should a malfunction occur, the heating elements will switch off. Once the automatic cleaning cycle is over The COOKING UNDER WAY indicator light will turn off and the DOOR LOCK indicator light will stay on. You will have to wait until the temperature inside the oven has cooled down sufficiently before you can open the oven door and the DOOR LOCK indicator light will turn off. White powder deposits may remain on the bottom and sides of the oven, remove these deposits with a damp sponge once the oven has cooled down completely. Alternatively, you can make use of the already heated oven, in which case it is not necessary to remove the deposits, they are completely harmless and will not affect your food in any way.
