Frequently Asked Questions - Excellence EX 106 M Elba

How to ignite the burners?

Press the knob and turn it to the maximum flow position (large flame). Keep pressed until the spark ignites the gas (about 10 seconds). In case of a power cut, bring a flame close to the burner. Then release the knob and adjust the desired flow.

What to do in case of accidental flame extinguishing?

The thermocouple automatically cuts off the gas supply. Return the knob to the closed position, wait at least 1 minute, then repeat the ignition procedure.

How to use the touch-control electronic programmer?

The programmer allows setting the time, a timer, semi-automatic cooking (stop after duration) or automatic (programmed start and stop). Touch the keys with your fingers. Refer to the dedicated chapter of the manual for detailed steps.

How to clean the ceramic glass cooktop?

Use a soft cloth dampened with warm water and neutral detergent. Never use abrasive products, metal sponges or sharp scrapers that could scratch the surface. Wipe and dry thoroughly.

How to install the anti-tilt bracket?

Mark the location on the wall, drill two 8 mm holes, insert the wall plugs. Attach the bracket with the supplied screws without tightening. Slide the cooker against the wall by inserting the bracket into its rear housing, then tighten the screws. Make sure not to pinch the power cord or gas hose.

Can I use aluminum pans?

Yes, but avoid concave or convex bottoms. Make sure the pans are centered on the burner for optimal stability. Do not place empty pans on the ceramic glass.

How to replace the oven light bulb?

Disconnect the power supply. Let the oven cool down. Remove the glass protective cover. Replace the halogen bulb with a new one of the same wattage (220-240 V, 50-60 Hz, resistant to 300°C). Do not use bare hands to avoid contaminating the bulb. Reassemble the cover.

What to do if the oven does not heat?

Check that the function selector and thermostat are set correctly. Ensure the clock is set (the oven does not work without it). Check the electrical supply (circuit breaker). If the problem persists, contact the After-Sales Service.

Note:

Your appliance has been fitted with a cooling fan to achieve optimum efficiency of the controls and to ensure lower surface temperatures are maintained.

When the oven is operating the cooling fan motor switches ON/OFF depending on temperature.

Depending on cooking temperatures and times, the cooling fan may run on even after appliance has been switched off. The duration of this time is dependent on previous cooking temperature and duration.

GAS BURNERS

Gas flow to the burners is adjusted by turning the knobs (illustrated in figs 3.1) which control the safety valves.

Turning the knob, so that the symbols printed on the knob itself point to the symbol printed on the control panel, achieves the following functions:

- symbol closed valve

- symbol

maximum aperture or flow

- symbol

minimum aperture or flow

√ 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 anti-clockwise 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, and never between the maximum aperture and closed positions.

Caution!

The cooking hob becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children well out of reach.

NOTES:

The knobs and symbols may vary. The symbols may be printed on the knob itself.

Diagram of a mechanical component with rotational motion arrows, labeled Fig. 3.2 (no text or symbols on the diagram itself)

N.B. When the cooker 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.

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

1. Press in the corresponding knob and turn counter-clockwise (fig. 3.2) to the
   full flame position marked by the ★ symbol (fig. 3.1) 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.

1. Wait for about ten seconds after the gas burner has been lit before letting go of the knob (valve activation delay);

2. Adjust the gas valve to the desired position.

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 THE 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:

DIAMETERS OF PANS WHICH MAY BE USED ON THE BURNERS

BURNERS	MINIMUM	MAXIMUM
Auxiliary	12 cm	14 cm
Semi-rapid	16 cm	24 cm
Rapid	24 cm	26 cm
Double-ring compact	26 cm	28 cm

do not use pans with concave or convex bases

It is important that the diameter of the pot be suitable to the potentiality 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. Too large a pot can cause damage to the burner and surrounding hob area.

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.

WOK STAND (Some models only) (figs. 3.4a - 3.4b)

This special grille for woks should be placed over the pan-rest for the Double-ring compact burner.

Warning:

• Using woks without this special grille may cause the burner to malfunction.
- Do not use the grille for ordinary, flat-bottomed saucepans.

IMPORTANT:

The special grille for wok pans MUST BE PLACED ONLY over the pan-rest for the Double-ring compact burner.

GENERAL FEATURES

As its name indicates, this is an oven that presents particular features from an operational point of view.

In fact, it is possible to insert 8 different programs to satisfy every cooking need.

The 8 positions, thermostatically controlled, are obtained by 4 heating elements which are:

• Bottom element
• Top element
• Grill element
• Circular element

NOTE:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the oven for 30 minutes in the position ☐

and for another 30 minutes at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob on position 250) in the positions and

☐, to eliminate possible traces of grease on the heating elements.

Clean the oven and accessories with warm water and washing-up liquid.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

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

a. by normal convection

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

b. 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.

c. by semi-forced convection

The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

d. by radiation

The heat is irradiated by the infra red grill element.

e. by radiation and ventilation

The irradiated heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

f. by ventilation

The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.

Models with glass lid only: The cooker lid must be kept open when the oven or the grill is in use.

ATTENTION: The oven door becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children away.

WARNING: The door is hot, use the handle.

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

CAUTIONS: Do not line the oven walls or base with aluminium foil.

Do not place baking trays or the drip tray on the base of the oven chamber.

NOTES: The knobs and symbols may vary. The symbols may be printed on the knob itself.

THERMOSTAT KNOB (fig. 4.2)

To turn on the heating elements of the oven, set the function selector knob on the desired program and the thermostat knob onto the desired temperature.

To set the temperature, it is necessary to make the knob indicator meet the chosen number. The elements will turn ON or OFF automatically according to the energy need which is determined by the thermostat.

The thermostat indicator light on the control panel will illuminate when the oven is switched on and turns off when the oven reaches the correct temperature.

The light will cycle on and off during cooking.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB (fig. 4.1)

It is necessary to preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.

Use with the oven door closed.

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

For correct use see chapter "GRILLING AND AU GRATIN".

Recommended for:

For grill cooking when a fast outside browning is necessary to keep the juices in, i. e. veal steak, steak, hamburger, etc.

HOT AIR COOKING

The circular element and the fan are on.

The heat is diffused by forced convection and the temperature must be regulated between 50°C and the maximum temperature with the thermostat knob.

It is not necessary to preheat the oven.

Recommended for:

For foods that must be well done on the outside and tender or rare on the inside, i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole fish, etc.

CONVECTION COOKING WITH VENTILATION

The upper and lower heating elements and the fan turn on.

The heat coming from the top and bottom is diffused by forced convection.

The temperature must be regulated between 50^ and the maximum temperature with the thermostat knob.

Recommended for:

For foods of large volume and quantity which require the same internal and external degree of cooking; for ie: rolled roasts, turkey, legs, cakes, etc.

DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS OR SLOW HEATING AND KEEPING FOOD WARM

Only the oven fan is on. To be used with the thermostat knob on “” because the other positions have no effect. The defrosting is done by simple ventilation without heat.

Recommended for:

To rapidly defrost frozen foods: 1 kilogram requires about one hour.

The defrosting times vary according to the quantity and type of foods to be defrosted.

SLOW HEATING AND KEEPING FOOD WARM

The temperature must be regulated between 60^ C and 80^ C with the thermostat knob. The upper and lower heating elements and the fan turn on.

The heat coming from the top and bottom is diffused by forced convection.

Recommended for:

To keep foods hot after cooking. To slowly heat already cooked foods.

COOKING ADVICE

STERILIZATION

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

a. Set the switch to position .
b. Set the thermostat knob to position 185^ C and preheat the oven.
c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 135°C.

When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.

SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS

The MULTIFUNCTION oven set on position 🏠 and 🏠 gives simultaneous heterogeneous cooking of different foods.

Different foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked together without mixing the smells and flavours.

This is possible since the fats and vapors are oxidized while passing through the electrical element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.

The only precautions to follow are:

• The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with a maximum difference of 20^ - 25^ .
• 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.

REGENERATION

Set the switch to position 📄 and the thermostat 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 and 200^ .
  • that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.

USE OF THE GRILL

Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes. Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.

The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.

Grilling with the oven door closed.

GRILLING AND "AU GRATIN"

Grilling may be done using the grill+fan setting 📁. in this setting the hot air completely surrounds the food that is to be cooked, to give a more even and rapid cooking process.

The temperature must be regulated between 50^ C and 225^ C maximum with the thermostat knob. And after having preheated the oven, simply place the food on the shelf. Close the door and let the oven operate with the thermostat on, until grilling is complete.

Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Do not 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.

Attention: During use the appliance becomes hot. Keep children well out of reach.

OVEN COOKING

To cook, before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.

When the oven has reached the desired temperature, introduce the food, control the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate the stored heat.

INSIDE OF OVEN

The oven should always be cleaned after use when it has cooled down.

The cavity should be cleaned using a mild detergent solution and warm water. Suitable proprietary chemical cleaners may be used after first consulting with the manufacturers recommendations and testing a small sample of the oven cavity.

Abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads/cloths should not be used on the cavity surface.

NOTE: The manufacturers of this appliance will accept no responsibility for damage caused by chemical or abrasive cleaning.

Let the oven cool down and pay special attention no to touch the hot heating elements inside the oven cavity.

GAS TAPS

Do not let cleaning products come into contact with the valves.

Periodic lubrication of the gas taps must be carried out by specialist personnel only.

In the event of operating faults in the gas taps, call the Service Department.

BURNERS AND PAN SUPPORTS

These parts must be cleaned using a sponge and soapy water or other suitable non-abrasive products. Dry with a soft cloth.

Warning! Not dishwasher safe.

After cleaning, the burners and their flame spreaders must be well dried and correctly replaced.

It is very important to check that the burner flame spreader and the cap have been correctly positioned. Failure to do so can cause serious problems with correct combustion and may cause irreversible damage to the hob surface.

Check that the electrode "S" (figs. 6.2 - 6.4) next to each burner is always clean to ensure troublefree sparking.

Check that the probe "T" (figs. 6.2 - 6.4) next to each burner is always clean to ensure correct operation of the safety valves.

Both the probe and ignition plug must be very carefully cleaned.

Note: To avoid damage to the electric ignition do not use it when the burners are not in place.

Note: Continuous use may cause a change in the glaze around the burners and grids, corresponding to the areas exposed to the heat. This is a natural phenomenon and does not prevent the parts from working properly.

CORRECT REPLACEMENT OF THE AUXILIARY SEMI-RAPID AND RAPID BURNERS

It is very important to check that the burner flame distributor "F" and the cap "C" has been correctly positioned (see figs. 6.2 - 6.3) - failure to do so can cause serious problems.

CORRECT REPLACEMENT OF THE DOUBLE RING COMPACT BURNER

The double ring compact burner must be correctly positioned (see fig. 6.6); the burner rib must be enter in their logement as shown by the arrow (fig. 6.4).

The burner correctly positioned must not rotate (fig. 6.5).

Then position the cap “A” and the ring “B” (figs. 6.5 - 6.6).

ASSEMBLY AND DISMANTLING OF THE SIDE RUNNER FRAMES

- Hang up the wire racks "G" on the oven walls (fig. 6.7).

In the models with catalytic panels supplied: interpose the catalytic panels "A" (fig. 6.7).

- Slide in, on the guides, the shelf and the tray (figs. 6.8a, 6.8b).

The shelf must be fitted so that the safety catch, which stops it sliding out, faces the inside of the oven.

Some models only: The shelf must be fitted so that the safety catch, which stops it sliding out, faces the inside of the oven; the guard rail shall be at the back.

• To dismantle, operate in reverse order.

OVEN TRAY

The oven tray "L" must be inserted into the side runners (figs. 6.8a, 6.9b).

Only for the "fan assisted" models:

The oven tray must be correctly placed on its wire support then inserted into the side runners (figs. 6.8b, 6.9b).

GREASE FILTER (some models only)

- A special screen can be fitted at the back of the oven to catch grease particles, mainly when meat is being roasted.

Slide in the grease filter on the back of the oven as in fig. 6.10.

- Clean the filter after any cooking!

The grease filter can be removed for cleaning and should be washed regularly in hot soapy water.

Always clean the filter after cooking as any solid residues on it might adversely affect the oven performance.

• Always dry the filter properly before fitting it back into the oven.

CAUTION: When baking pastry etc. this filter should be removed.

TELESCOPIC SLIDING SHELF SUPPORTS (some models only)

The telescopic sliding shelf support makes it safer and easier to insert and remove the oven shelf.

It stops when it is pulled out to the maximum position.

Important! When installing the sliding shelf support, make sure that you fit:

• The slides to the top wire of a rack. They do not fit on the lower wire.
  • The slides so that they run out towards the oven door.
• Both sides of each pair of shelf slides.
• Both sides on the same level.

To fix the sliding shelf supports onto the side racks:

• Fit the side runner frames into the holes on the side walls inside the oven. (fig. 6.11).
• Fit the sliding shelf supports onto the top wire of a rack and press (fig. 6.11). You will hear a click as the safety locks clip over the wire.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When cooking with the rotisserie DO NOT position the grill tray on the sliding shelf supports.

To remove the RH and LH sliding guides from the wire support:

• Find the safety locks. These are the tabs that clip over the fixing wire (arrow 1 in fig. 6.12).
• Pull the safety locks away from the fixing wire to release the sliding guide (arrow 2 in fig. 6.12).

Cleaning the sliding shelf supports:

• Wipe the supports with a damp cloth and a mild detergent only.
• Do not wash them in the dishwasher, immerse them in soapy water, or use over cleaner on them.

ADVICE FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE OF SELF CLEANING PANELS

The self cleaning panels are covered with a special microporous enamel which, absorbs and removes oil and fat splashes during normal baking over 200°C.

If, after cooking very fatty foods, the panels remain dirty, operate the oven empty on max temperature for about 30 minutes.

These panels do not require to be cleaned, however it is advised to periodically remove them from the oven (at least the side panels) and to wash them with tepid soapy water and then wipe off with a soft cloth.

DO NOT CLEAN OR WASH THEM WITH ABRASIVE PRODUCTS OR WITH PRODUCTS CONTAINING ACIDS OR ALKALIS.

The side panels are reversible and when the microporous enamel degrades, they can be turned to the other side.
