2.1 Electrical connection

Ensure that the voltage corresponds to that indicated in the plaque located on the oven door frame. The cables for the connection to the mains must be protected from direct contact with the oven’s metal casing. The plaque must never be removed. Attention: the ground connection must be compliant with law. After installation, carry out a brief oven check, following the instructions reported further down. In case the appliance does not function, disconnect it from the mains and contact the after-sales assistance centre nearest to you. Do not attempt to repair the appliance. ATTENTION: The manufacturer declines every responsibility for damages suffered by persons and things, caused by the non compliance of the above prescriptions or deriving from the tampering of even a single part of the appliance and the use of non original spare parts.

The oven is pre-arranged for built-in purposes. The sizes must respect the quota indicated in figures 1and 2. The upper/rear part of the cabinet must have an opening of at least 80-90 mm deep, as indicated in figure 1. Tighten the 4 screws by firstly inserting them inside the bush and then inside the frame (figures 1 Ref. A, B). For installations underneath the “top” surface, ensure that the rear/lower part of the cabinet has an opening similar to that shown in figure 2. (reference C). Do not use the door as a lever to insert the oven inside the cabinet. Do not put pressure on the open door. If using a fixed direct connection to the electrical network, it is necessary to provide a proper device which assu- res the disconnection from the mains with a distance of contact opening which allows complete disconnection in conditions of overvoltage category III, in accordance with the rules of installation. Avoid using reductions or adaptors as they may cause overheating or burning.20 THERMOSTAT: Cooking temperature is chosen turning the knob clockwise to the desired value, between 50° and MAX. MECHANICAL MINUTE COUNTER: The minute counter can be regulated for a maximum period of one hour. The regulation knob must be turned clockwise until the 60 minute position, and then placed at the desired time, rotating it anti-clockwise. When the pre-set time is over, an acoustic signal goes off, which stops automatically. The minute counter does not interrupt the oven functioning when the acoustic signals goes off. 120 MINUTE MECHANICAL COOKING END TIMER: Place the thermostat knob on the desired time, and then rotate the knob of the timer clockwise to the desired time (max 120 minutes). When the timer returns to the starting “0” position, an acoustic signal will communicate that the oven has turned off automatically.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER

3. Description of the controls

Act on the control devices placed on the oven panel to select the various functions with the knob. KEY21 THERMOSTAT SIGNALLER (ORANGE): When the light turns on, it means that the oven is pre-heating. When the light turns off while cooking it means that the oven has reached the pre-set temperature. Regular intermittence indicates that the temperature inside the oven is maintained constantly at the set level. TURN ON SIGNALLER (GREEN) (if provided): This light switches on when the oven is operating and it remains on during the whole coking period. The light switches off when the oven turns off.

3.1 Cooking with roasting-jack (IF PROVIDED):

In electric ovens it is possible to use the roasting-jack coupled with the functioning of the grill or of the oven.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER

Place the food to be cooked on the spit-pole, blocking it with the two forks, being careful not to strain the starter with too heavy loads, and then proceed as follows:

1) Place the frame inside the third guide starting from the bottom.

2) Position the pulley on to the frame so that it remains driven.

Position a pan on the first guide from the bottom and pour some water to limit the formation of smoke.

3) Remove the plastic handle by unscrewing it.

4) Introduce the frame with the food on the spit-pole until the pole point is inside the hole located

on the oven rear wall.

5) Once cooking is completed, tighten the plastic handle to the spit to be able to extract it.22

3) The last tone you will listen to will remain set/memorised until it is reprogrammed.

This oven combines the qualities of the traditional “static” natural convention ovens with those of the modern “ventilated” forced convention ovens. It is a very versatile appliance which, easily and safely, allows to choose amongst different cooking methods. By acting on the knobs on the panel, the selection of different programs and the desired temperature is obtained. To make the best use of your oven we ask that you carefully read the instruction book.

4.1 General warnings and recommendations

When using the oven for the first time, it is opportune to heat it at its maximum temperature (250°C) for as long as it is necessary to burn any residue manufacture oils, which might confer unpleasant odours to food. When cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil or tinfoil and do not lean pots and pans to avoid damaging the enamel layer. Should you wish to use baking paper, position it so that it does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven. To avoid that any steam contained inside the oven is a nuisance, open the door in 2 phases: keep it half opened (5 cm opening) for 5 seconds, and then open it completely. Should it be necessary to intervene on the food, leave the door open as little as possible to avoid that the temperature inside the oven decreases to the point of jeopardising the cooking.

4.2 Cooling ventilation (if provided)

Some oven models are equipped with a cooling fan which starts to function when the oven is on and reaches a certain temperature. The functioning of the fan causes a normal air flow which exits above the oven facade and which may continue for a short time even after the oven has been switched off.

4.3 Internal lighting lamp

The lamp inside the oven is switched on by rotating the functions knob on any of these.25

5. AVAILABLE ACCESSORIES

The oven has 5 guides for the positioning of the pots and pans at different heights or 4 levels wire racks.. PAN SUPPORT

Used as support for containers with food for cooking. Caution: the pan support must be inserted in the direction indicated in the following image. BAKING PAN: Used for cooking food.

Not all accessories are present on certain models. It is possible to request the original accessories, in the model provided, through the authorised after-sales assistance centres.

For the best results, it is recommeded to preheat the oven at the desired temperature before introducing the food. When the orange light turns off, pre-heating is complete. Pre-heating is not necessary for gres food. In case of froozen meat, we recommend decreasing the coking temperature by approx 20°C, increasing the coking time by 10/15 minutes. In the phases preceding cooking ensure that only the indispensabile accessories are present inside the oven( it’s normally sifficient to have the pan support on which, after pre-heating, the container or the pan with the food to be cooked will be placed). In order to obtain excellent cooking results, it is indispensable for every type of dish, to choose the FUNCTION, the TEMPERATURE, the TIME and the insertion level of the guides inside the oven, depending on the type of model purchased and its available functions: - Functions: The number of functions may vary depending on the model; by rotating the knob on the desired function, different cooking styles are obtained. - Temperature: It is set by rotating the knob on the desired temperature. - Cooking times: They usually depend on the type and quantity of dishes to be cooked, on the different food habits and the personal taste and experience. - Insertion levels: : 5 guides (1 lower, , 3 central , 1 upper) in the ovens with moulded cavity and 4 levels (1 inferior, 2 central, 1 upper) in the ovens with side racks.26 The indications supplied on the recipes are generally sufficient to obtain satisfying cooking results. The central levels of insertion are usually suitable for most cooking as it is in this part of the oven that, prior to thermostat control, the perfect stabilisation of the set temperature happens. In electric ovens, the higher the insertion level of the pans or pan supports in the oven the nearer the heat source (higher burnishing of the upper part of the dishes and food grilling). The food portioning and the use of different material and thickness food containers (terracotta, glass, aluminium, steel) can determine cooking times different to those indicated in the recipe books. Forced ventilation cooking produces high humidity removal from food and is usually recommended for cakes with whisked mix, multiple cooking and very thick portions. In delicate cooking with leavening, avoid or reduce to a minimum, the opening of the oven door, in order not to alter the heating thermostat cycles. In cooking using the grill carried out on the pan support or using the roasting-jack, place a pan containing some decilitres of water on the step underneath, to limit grease sprays or excess smoke.

For a significant energy saving during long cooking times, use the residue heat by switching off the oven a few minutes before the average indication of the recipe, keeping the oven door closed. The perfect insulation of the oven compartment will equally allow the dishes to reach the ideal cooking. Temperatures and coking times indicative sheet27

ATTENTION: During cooking of particularly humid dishes (vegetables flan, meat or fish stews, fruit cakes) water steam generates inside the oven. Pay attention when opening the door! To limit the steam leaking, use the precaution of opening the door in two phases: move the door by a few cm and, after a few seconds, open it completely. It is appropriate to know that such water steam, in the minutes after cooking, during cooling of the oven, determines the formation of condense and, therefore, water drops falling on the internal glass of the door and enamelled walls. For good oven maintenance it is necessary to remove this slight presence of water using an absorbing cloth or an abrasive sponge at the end of every cooking process, having as characteristic a high presence of humidity. The oven door must be kept close during the cooking process.

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the oven from the mains before every intervention which requests access to the live parts.

7.1 Cleaning the stainless steel

For a good preservation of the stainless steel, it must be cleaned regularly at the end of every use, once it has cooled down.

7.2 Daily routine cleaning

To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products without abrasives. Use instructions: pour the product on to a damp cloth and wipe the internal surface of the oven, accurately rinse and dry with a soft cloth. The Grill During the cooking on the wire chromed shelf or with the turnspit, place a tray including some decilitres of water on the level below in order to avoid fat splashes and excessive smoke. For a significant energy efficiency during the long cooking it is advised to exploit the remaining heat by switching off the oven some minutes before the expected cooking time keeping the oven door closed. Grilling tips: Turn the food midway through cooking. Do not use any aluminium paper to wrap the dishes or to cover the containers because the reflected heat might set fire to the paper or damage the grill.

When the cookings are performed with the GRILL function, the oven door must be kept CLOSED and the temperature does not exceed 200°C.28

7.3 Food or residue stains

Never use metal sponges or sharp scrapers, the surfaces may be damaged. Use normal products for steel, non abrasive, eventually using tools made of plastic or wood material. Accurately rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid letting sugary food residue dry inside the oven (ex. jam, chocolate, etc.). In time they may ruin the enamel coating the inside of the oven. For a good preservation of the oven it must be cleaned regularly after it has cooled down. For easier cleaning, extract all removable parts.

7.4 Cleaning the oven (without self-cleaning panels)

Clean the oven pan support and the side guides with hot water and non abrasive detergents, rinse and dry (fig. 20). The door can be removed for easier cleaning (see point 8.2 dismantling of the door).

To clean use kitchen absorbent paper, in case of persistent dirt, wash with a damp cloth and common detergent. Do not use abrasive detergents or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass door, since they may scratch the glass surface and cause it to break. We recommend keeping the glass of the door as clean as possible.

8. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

The oven requires small maintenance interventions should, in time, those parts subject to wear, such as gaskets, lamp, etc, require replacing. Instructions for these types of interventions are supplied below. Disconnect the oven from the mains before every intervention which requests access to the live parts.

8.1 Replacement of the internal lighting lamp

Remove protection cover “A” by unscrewing it anti-clockwise, replace lamp “B” with a similar one. Mount the protection once again and screw it clockwise until it is tight (fig. 21). Only use oven lamps (T300°C) 15W or 25W depending on models. Never touch the lamp with bare fingers, always use protective gloves. Only use lamps obtained from authorised after-sales centres.

8.2 Dismantling of the door

Lift levers “2” up to the ledge with hinges “1” and hold the door at the two sides with both hands near the same hinges. Lift the door upwards forming an angle of approx. 45° and carefully extract it. For the mounting, place hinge “2” in the appropriate grooves, therefore leave the door to lean downwards, ensure it remains blocked in grooves “3”, then release levers “1” (fig. 22).29

8.3 Dismantling of oven door gaskets

To better clean the oven, the door gasket can be removed. With the door dismantled, lift the tongues located at the angles, as shown in the figure. Once cleaning is completed, re-mount the gaskets keeping the longest side horizontal and place the tongues in the respective holes, starting from the upper ones.

The crossed-bin symbol on the product indicates that Waste deriving from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) must not be thrown away with general waste (i.e. with the "mixed municipal waste"), but handled separately so as to be reused or be subjected to specific treatment to remove and safely dispose of any substances that are harmful to the environment and extract the raw materials that can be recycled. In every member state of the European Union, WEEE should therefore be delivered to specialised Collection Centres in accordance with the provisions of the laws and regulations in force. The WEEE can also be handed over to the retailer when a new appliance is purchased, who is obliged to accept this free of charge ("one to one" basis). The unlawful disposal of the product by the user will result in administrative sanctions.
