! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may produce a slightly unpleasant odour caused by the burning away of protective substances used during the manufacturing process. Starting the oven

1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the

2. Select the desired temperature with the

THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table for cooking modes and the suggested cooking temperatures (see Cooking Modes).

3. When preheating is finished, the THERMOSTAT

indicator light will stay on: place the food in the oven.

4. You may do the following during cooking:

- change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob. - change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob. - stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the 0 position. ! Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to avoid damaging the enamel coating. ! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that blows out air between the control panel and the oven door. Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently. Oven light It goes on when selecting with the SELECTOR knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected. Start-up and use7

Cooking modes ! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for GRILL (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 and bottom), 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. TOP OVEN mode The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking. GRILL mode The top heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc... Some grilling examples are included in the Practical Cooking Advice paragraph. 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. Cooking modes 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 GRILL 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. GRILL 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 For best results when cooking pizza, use the MULTI-COOKING 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.8

Hob Type of hob The oven is combined with a hob that can be made up oftwo types of heating elements: cast-iron electric plates (see diagram 1) or glass ceramic hobs (see diagram 2). Switching on the glass ceramic hob Traditional cooking zones Traditional cooking zones are made up of circularheating elements. They turn red approximately tenseconds after they have been turned on.Each cooking zone is fitted with a control knob allowingyou to select from 6 different temperature settings from aminimum of 1 to a maximum of 6. Residual heat indicator lights* The indicator lights (C) indicate that the temperature ofthe corresponding cooking zones have exceeded 60°C,even after the heating element has been switched off. Recommended power levels for various types of cooking: Setting Normal or Fast Plate

Cooking vegetables, fish

Cooking potatoes (using steam) soups, chickpeas, beans.

Continuing the cooking of large quantities of food, minestrone

For roasting (above average)

For browning and reaching a boil in a short time. Practical advice on using the glass ceramic hob The glue that is applied on the gaskets leaves sometraces of grease on the glass. Before using theappliance, we recommend you eliminate these with aspecial non-abrasive cleaning product. During the firstfew hours of use there may be a smell of rubber whichwill disappear very quickly.To obtain the best results with your hob: Use flat-bottomed pans to ensure that they adhere tothe cooking zone perfectly. Always use pans with a diameter that is large enoughto cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all theavailable heat. Make sure that the bottom of the cookware is alwaysdry and clean to guarantee correct adherence andlong life, not only for the cooking zones but also forthe cookware itself. Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gasburners: the heat concentration on gas burners maydeform the base of the pan, causing it not to adherecorrectly. Never leave a cooking zone on without cookware on itbecause as it heats up and rapidly reaches themaximum level, it could damage the heatingelements.diagram 2diagram 1

Precautions and tips The appliance was designed and manufactured in compliance with international safety standards. The following warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read carefully. General safety The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use. The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms. When handling the appliance, always use the handles provided on the sides of the oven. Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or moist hands and feet. The appliance must be used to cook food by adults only and according to the instructions in this manual. Do not touch the heating elements and parts of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep children well away from the appliance. Ensure that the power supply cable of other electrical appliances does not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven. The openings used for ventilation and dispersion of heat must never be covered. Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the ends may be hot. Always use oven gloves to place cookware in the oven or when removing it. Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven. Do not place flammable materials in the oven: if the appliance is switched on by mistake, it could catch fire. Always make sure the knobs are in the l/ position when the appliance is not in use. When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable. Never carry out any cleaning or maintenance work without having unplugged the plug from the mains. 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 glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks, but it may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object such as a tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance from the electricity mains immediately and contact a Service Centre. Remember that the temperature of the cooking zones remains relatively high for at least thirty minutes after they have been switched off. Keep any object that could melt away from the hob, for example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a high sugar content. Keep plastic or aluminium objects away from the hob: if you forget them on surfaces that are still hot, they may cause serious damage to the hob. 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 work load placed on electrical companies. Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL 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.11
