Modes

This oven features 12 modes. They are detailed below:

	Icons	Description
Mode 1		Quick preheating: In this mode, both parts of the top heating element (inner and outer) and the bottom heating element are activated to circulate heat alternately. The fan is also activated to provide an even heat distribution and shorten the cooking time. Thus, it is suitable to preheat the oven quickly.
Mode 2		Conventional mode (top and bottom heating elements). This mode is suitable for roasting meat or baking food that is placed on a single level of the oven.

ENGLISH

Mode 3		Full grill: In this mode, the inner and outer parts of the top heating element will be on so that heat descends towards the food. Thus, it is suitable for cooking medium to large sausages, bacon, veal or fish fillets, etc.
Mode 4		Fan & grill: This mode uses the top heating element together with the fan, which helps to circulate the heat.
Mode 5		Fan-assisted heating: In this mode, the ring heating element and the fan are activated, allowing better heat circulation. The cooking time is short, so it is an economical way to cook. The heat will be transmitted evenly at all levels, which will prevent the flavours of the different preparations from mixing.
Mode 6		Defrosting: In this mode, the fan is activated at room temperature. The defrosting time will vary according to the type of food and quantity.
Mode 7		Fan & top and bottom heating elements: This is the Conventional mode. If selected, the fan and both heating elements will be switched on.
Mode 8	[HZT]	Half grill: This mode only uses the inner part of the top heating element, which causes the heat to be directed downwards. Suitable for cooking small portions of bacon, toast, meat, etc.
Mode 9		Fan and grill heating: This mode uses the top heating element and the fan, which allows the heat to circulate more quickly inside. Thus, it is suitable for when you need food to cook quickly and to prevent some foods such as steaks, hamburgers, and some vegetables from losing juiciness.
Mode 10		Pizza: This mode activates the fan and the bottom heating element, making it suitable for heating the oven base quickly.
Mode 11		AirFryer: This mode simultaneously activates the top heating element, the ring heating element and the fan. This allows the oven to heat up quickly and remove moisture from the surface of the food, making it crispier on the outside and more tender on the inside.
Mode 12		ECO mode: In this mode, the inner part of the top heating element and the bottom heating element are used to control the temperature, thus reducing energy consumption. This function is suitable for baking large foods, as the oven temperature rises progressively, allowing the heat to fully penetrate the food.

Before using the oven for the first time

Heating the oven

To remove the smell, heat the oven while it is empty and closed. We recommend that you choose a function in which both heating elements are activated (Conventional mode) and set the oven to 250 °C for one hour. Make sure that no packaging remains inside the oven.

1. Use the knob to activate the Conventional Mode function.
2. Set the temperature knob to 250^ C. After one hour, turn off the oven. To do this, turn the function knob to the off position.

Accessories cleaning

Before using the accessories for the first time, clean them thoroughly with hot water, soap and a soft cloth.

Energy saving tips

The following information will help you to save energy:

• Use dark-coloured or enamel-coated cookware, as heat transmission will be better.
  ● Preheat the oven before cooking food.
• Do not open the oven door frequently during cooking.
• Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time. You can cook by placing two cooking containers on the rack.
  ● Cook more than one dish, one after the other. The oven will still be hot.
• You can save energy by switching off the oven a few minutes before the cooking time. Do not open the oven door.
  ● Defrost frozen dishes before cooking.

ENGLISH

Oven operation

WARNING: Risk of burns. Be careful when opening the oven door, as steam may escape.

Baking tips

• Use suitable metal trays or aluminium containers with non-stick coating or heat-resistant silicone moulds.
  ● Make the best use of the rack space.
• It is recommended to place the mould in the centre of the rack.
• Keep the door closed.

Roasting tips

• If you are cooking a whole chicken or turkey, or a large piece of meat, season it with a little lemon juice and black pepper.
  ● Meat with bones takes 15 to 30 minutes longer to cook than a roast of the same size without bones.
• You should allow 4 to 5 minutes of cooking time per centimetre of height of the meat.
• Let the meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time. This way, the juices will be better distributed throughout the roast, and will not run out when the meat is cut.
  ● If you are cooking fish, set it to medium or low.
• If you are roasting food, preheat the oven for 4 minutes before putting it in. When the oven is in operation, always close the door.
• As far as possible, the pieces of food to be grilled should be of the same thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and remain tender and juicy.
  ● Turn the food you are grilling after 2/3 of the time has elapsed.
• Do not add salt to the beef steaks until they have been grilled.
• Add a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the dish with about 1/2 cm of liquid.
• Place the food to be grilled directly on the rack. If you are grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing it in the centre of the rack. Also, place the oven tray on level 1 to collect the fat.
• When grilling, do not insert the baking tray on levels 4 or 5, as this could deform it.
• The heating element switches on and off continuously. This is normal. The setting of the function determines how often this will occur.
• When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and leave to rest for a further 10 minutes. This allows a better distribution of the meat juices.
• If you are roasting pork with a crust, cut the crust crosswise and place the roast on

ENGLISH

the plate with the crust on the bottom.

- Place whole birds on the bottom rack, breast side down. Turn them over after 2/3 of the specified time.

- If cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the wings. This allows the fat to escape.

- If you are cooking fish pieces, turn them after 2/3 of the specified time. It is not necessary to do this if you cook the fish whole. Place the whole fish in the oven with the dorsal fin upwards. Placing half a potato or a small oven-safe container in the stomach cavity of the fish will make it more stable.

- How to know if the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available in specialised shops) or perform the "spoon test". Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it's hard, it's ready. If, on the other hand, you can press it with a spoon, it needs a little more cooking.

- The roast is too dark in colour and some parts are slightly burnt. Check the height at which it is placed and the temperature.

- The roast looks good, but the juices are burnt. Next time, use a smaller baking dish or add more liquid.

- The roast looks good, but the juices are too clear and watery. Next time, use a bigger baking dish or add less liquid.

- Steam comes out of the roast. This is normal and is due to the laws of physics. Most of the steam escapes through the steam outlet. Steam can settle and form condensation on the knobs or on adjacent furniture elements.

Tips for using the Grill function

This function is ideal for cooking meat, fish and poultry, as these foods will be browned but not dry. Flat pieces, meat skewers and sausages are particularly suitable for grilling with the Grill function, as are vegetables with a high water content, such as tomatoes and onions.

Baking tips

● How to know if a sponge cake is well baked.

About 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, insert a toothpick into the highest point of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.

● The sponge cake crumbles.

Use less liquid next time or adjust the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the mixing times specified in the recipe.

● The cake has risen in the centre, but is lower at the edges.

Do not grease the sides of the mould. After baking, carefully remove the cake from the tin. Use a knife to do this.

ENGLISH

● The top of the cake is too dark.

Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake it for a little longer.

● The sponge cake is too dry.

When done, poke small holes in it with a toothpick. Then, sprinkle it with fruit juice or an alcoholic beverage. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.

● The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good, but is soggy inside.

Use a little less liquid next time and bake for a little longer at a lower temperature. For wet topping cakes, bake the base first. Sprinkle with almonds or breadcrumbs, then top with the topping. Follow the recipe and baking times.

● The cake browns unevenly.

Select a slightly lower temperature so that the cake bakes more evenly. Bake delicate cakes on a single level using the Conventional Mode. If the greaseproof paper protrudes, it can affect air circulation. For this reason, always cut the paper to the size of the baking tray.

● The bottom of a fruit cake is too light.

Place the cake on a lower level next time.

● The fruit juice overflows.

Next time, use a deeper container.

● Bakery products made with yeast dough stick together during baking.

There should be a space of about 2 cm between each product. In this way, there is enough space for them to expand well and brown on all sides.

- It has been baking on several levels.

The food in the upper tray is darker than the food in the lower tray. Always use 3D hot air for baking on more than one level. Just because you put several trays in the oven does not mean that they will all be ready at the same time.

● Condensation forms when baking moist cakes.

Cooking can lead to the formation of steam, which escapes over the door. Steam can settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on adjacent furniture elements. This is normal.

5. Cleaning and maintenance

• The oven must be cleaned after each use. When cleaning the oven, the light must be switched on so that the surfaces can be seen better.
• The inside of the oven should only be washed with lukewarm water and a little liquid soap.
  ● After cleaning the inside of the oven, wipe it dry with a cloth.
  ● Never clean oven surfaces with steam cleaners.
• The inside of the oven should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using a sponge or soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners must not be used.
• Any stains that may appear on the bottom of the oven will have been caused by splashes of food or spilled food. These splashes occur during the cooking process. They may be due to food being cooked at too high a temperature or placed in a container that is too small.
• You must select a temperature and cooking function suitable for the food to be cooked. You should also make sure that you place the food in an appropriately sized dish and use the oven tray where appropriate.
• The exterior parts of the oven should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using a sponge or soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners must not be used.
• If you use any type of oven cleaner, make sure that it is suitable for this appliance.
  ● Damage caused to the appliance by a cleaning agent will not be repaired free of charge, even if the appliance is within the warranty period.
• Do not use cleaning products containing abrasive materials for cleaning and maintenance of the glass front panel.

WARNING: No oven cleaner or other special cleaning agents are required to clean the oven. It is recommended to clean the oven with a damp cloth while it is hot.

Steam-assisted cleaning

Use this function to remove food remains from inside the oven. It is only suitable for cleaning light soiling. It is not efficient for ingrained dirt and stubborn stains caused by cooking. This function can only be used when the oven is cold.

Cleaning process

1. Remove all accessories from the oven.
2. Prepare a solution of water (85%), white vinegar (10%), and dish detergent (5%) and spray generously on the door, side walls, and rear wall of the oven cavity.
3. Pour 40 ml of water into the base of the oven cavity.
4. Close the door. Select the Steam cleaning function and set the oven to 120^ C.

ENGLISH

1. Switch off the oven after 15 minutes.
2. Allow it to cool down and then wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
3. Dry the inside with a cloth or kitchen paper.

WARNING:

Before doing so, make sure that the oven is completely cool. Otherwise, you could get burned.

Assembling and disassembling the oven door

• To clean the door, remove it. Each door hinge is fitted with a locking rod. When the door is closed, the door locks into place. To remove the door you will need to open the locking rod.
• When the hinge is not locked, the door may suddenly close with great force. Therefore, make sure that the locking rod is closed at all times. It should only be open when the door is removed.

Disassembling the door

1. Open the door completely.
2. Lift both sides of the locking rod. Fig. 21
3. Close the door as far as it will go. Hold it on both sides, then close it again. Move it up and down and pull it out.

Positioning the door

Follow the reverse order of disassembly of the door.

• When fitting the door, make sure that both hinges fit correctly.
• When opening the door, lower the locking rod. Fig. 22
• If the door accidentally falls down or the hinges suddenly close, do not reach into the hinges. Contact Cecotec's Official Technical Support Service.

Replacing the oven light bulb

⚠️ If the light bulb malfunctions, it should be replaced. There is a risk of electric shock.

To replace the light bulb, follow the steps below:

1. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
2. Place a kitchen towel in the oven when it is cold to prevent it from spoiling.
3. Unscrew the glass cover by turning it counterclockwise.
4. Replace the bulb with one of the same type.
5. Screw the glass cover back on.
6. Remove the tea towel and switch on the circuit breaker.

Periodic inspections

In addition to keeping the oven clean, you should:

● Conduct regular inspections. After the warranty period has expired, the oven must be inspected by a service centre at least once every two years.
● Repair any operational faults.

⚠ WARNING: All repairs must be carried out by qualified personnel.

6. Troubleshooting

The oven may malfunction during operation. Check the list before calling the Technical Support Service. You may be able to repair some faults yourself.

Normal operation:

• When using the oven for the first time, it may release a peculiar smell and smoke for a few hours. Therefore, we recommend that you run it for one hour with nothing inside. After this time, allow it to cool and clean it.
• When the oven is in operation, you may hear some crackling, this is due to the metal bottom of the oven.
  ● If the food to be heated has some moisture in it, the heat emission orifice may give

ENGLISH

off steam during operation.

- The fan will start to run 15 minutes after the oven is switched on. Even if the oven is closed, the fan will continue to run for 35 minutes.

● Preheat the oven before putting in the food.

- If you are going to bake for a long period of time, you can turn off the oven before the time is up. This will use the residual heat to finish cooking
