WARNING! The oven is provided with a stop system to extract the racks and prevent them from coming out of the oven (1).

As shown in the drawing, to extract them completely, simply lift the racks, holding them on the front part, and

pull (2).

! 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 emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

Setting the clock

  1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.
  2. Select the desired temperature using the THERMOSTAT knob. A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking temperatures can be found in the Cooking advice table (see Cooking modes).
  3. The THERMOSTAT indicator light indicates that the oven is heating up to the temperature set.
  4. During cooking it is always possible to:
  5. change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob;
  6. adjust the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob;
  7. stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged.

! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel and the oven door, as well as towards the bottom of the oven door.

! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Oven light

When selecting with the SELECTOR knob the oven light goes on. It remains lit when a cooking mode is selected.

How to use the timer*

  1. To set the buzzer, turn the TIMER knob clockwise almost one complete revolution.
  2. Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time: align the minutes shown on the TIMER knob with the indicator on the control panel.
  3. The timer operates in minutes: when the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer will sound.

The timer does not turn the oven on or off.

Cooking modes

Cooking modes

! A temperature value between 60°C and MAX can be set for all cooking modes except the following:

  • GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)
  • GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

INDESIT FIM 53 K.A BK S,  FIM 53 K.A IX S,  FIM 53 K.A WH S,  FIM 53 KC.A,  FIM 53 KA IX - Cooking modes - 1

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. When using 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.

INDESIT FIM 53 K.A BK S,  FIM 53 K.A IX S,  FIM 53 K.A WH S,  FIM 53 KC.A,  FIM 53 KA IX - TRADITIONAL OVEN mode - 1

MULTILEVEL mode

All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular) switch on and the fan begins to operate. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.

INDESIT FIM 53 K.A BK S,  FIM 53 K.A IX S,  FIM 53 K.A WH S,  FIM 53 KC.A,  FIM 53 KA IX - MULTILEVEL mode - 1

TOP OVEN mode

The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.

INDESIT FIM 53 K.A BK S,  FIM 53 K.A IX S,  FIM 53 K.A WH S,  FIM 53 KC.A,  FIM 53 KA IX - TOP OVEN mode - 1

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.

INDESIT FIM 53 K.A BK S,  FIM 53 K.A IX S,  FIM 53 K.A WH S,  FIM 53 KC.A,  FIM 53 KA IX - GRILL mode - 1

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 provided by the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

  • Only available in certain models.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-assisted cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods. ! In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, particularly when using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTI-COOKING

  • Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires more heat on 2.
  • Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

GRILL

  • Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the centre of the rack.
  • We recommend that the power level is set to maximum. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate constantly.

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.

Precautions and tips

! This appliance has been 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 moving or positioning the appliance, always use the handles provided on the sides of the oven.
  • Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet or damp hands and feet.
  • The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions provided in this booklet. Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room) constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held responsible for any damage caused as a result of improper, incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.
  • Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep children well away from the appliance.
  • Make sure that the power supply cables of other electrical appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven.
  • The ventilation and heat dispersal openings must never be obstructed.
  • Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the ends may be hot. Always use oven gloves when placing 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 accidentally, the materials could catch fire.
  • Always make sure the knobs are in the “●”/“○” 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.
  • Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work without having disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains.
  • If the event of malfunctions, under no circumstances should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself. Contact an authorised Service Centre (see Assistance).
  • Do not rest objects on the open oven door.
  • Do not let children play with the appliance.
  • 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.
  • The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

Disposal

  • When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
  • The European Directive 2012/19/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

  • You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, the "delayed cooking" mode (see Cooking modes) and "delayed automatic cleaning" mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise their time efficiently.
  • Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL and GRATIN modes: This will achieve improved results while saving 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.

Maintenance and care

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 and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap.

Safety precautions and recommendations

The oven is developed and constructed in accordance with international safety standards. These warnings are given for your safety: please read them carefully.

General safety

- The oven gets very hot during operation. It is forbidden to install it outside residential premises, even in protected places, because it is unsafe and may cause fire or danger. - When using the oven, be sure to use the handles provided on the sides of the oven. Do not touch the heating elements or the inner surfaces with wet or damp hands or feet. - The appliance is intended for use only for baking food, in accordance with the instructions given in this brochure. Any other use (for example, heating the room) is considered not in accordance with its intended purpose, i.e., incorrect. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for possible damage caused by use not in accordance with the intended purpose, erroneous or unreasonable use. - During operation, the heating elements and the oven door become very hot in some places. Be careful: do not touch them and keep children at a safe distance. Make sure that the power cord does not touch the hot parts of the oven. - Do not cover the ventilation or openings for heat removal. - To open the door, use the handle in the center: on the sides it may be hot. Always use oven mitts when loading or unloading dishes. Do not cover the oven with foil. Do not place flammable materials in the oven: in case of improper use, the appliance may catch fire. When you are not using the appliance, be sure to unplug it so that the regulator is in the "off" position. - When removing large baking sheets, hold them only by the baking sheet itself and never by the handle. All operations with the appliance or its maintenance must be performed after first unplugging it from the electrical outlet. - In case of malfunction, do not attempt to repair the internal mechanisms yourself. Contact a service center (see Help). Do not place heavy objects on the open door or on the oven. Do not allow the appliance to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or by inexperienced persons, unless they are supervised or instructed by a person responsible for their safety; do not allow children to play with the appliance.

Disposal

  • Disposal of packaging material: follow local regulations, as packaging can be reused. The European Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) stipulates that household appliances must not be disposed of with normal household waste. At the end of their service life, household appliances must be collected separately for optimal recovery and recycling of the materials they contain, and to eliminate potential risks to health and the environment. The symbol of a crossed-out wheeled bin, shown on all products, reminds of the need for separate disposal.

For more information on proper disposal of this equipment, its owners should contact the relevant service centers or the supplier.

Protection and maintenance of the environment

  • Using the oven during the period from late evening to early morning allows you to reduce the load on the power grid. The availability of planning programs, in particular "Delayed start" (see Programs) and "Delayed automatic cleaning" (see Maintenance and care), helps to organize according to the time.
  • Cooking in the ECO and CONVECTION modes requires closed oven doors: this allows you to get good results and save electricity (approximately 10% compared to the standard state and allows you to reduce costs.
