Controls
Oven Function Control Knob
Oven Light - The oven light will be on without any cooking function
Defrost Setting - This setting is intended to assist in thawing of frozen food
Fan cooking - This allows you to roast or roast and bake simoultaneously using any shelf, without flavour transference Grill - The heat comes only from the top element
Thermostat Control Knob
Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to select temperatures between 50°C and 250°C (MAX).
Thermostat Control Light (°C)
The thermostat control light will come on when the thermostat control knob is turned. The light will remain on until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on and off to show the temperature is being maintained.
Mains on Light
The mains on light will come on when the oven function control knob is set.
End of Cooking programmer
The end of cooking programmer allows the oven to switch off automatically (it cannot be used as a timer only). The cooking duration can be set up to 90 minutes maximum. Turn the knob to 90, then turn it back to the required cooking time. At the end of the chosen cooking time the timer clock automatically switches off the oven. At the same time an acoustic signal is emitted which stops automatically.
Note: for manual operation the switch should be turned to the symbol showing a hand .
The Safety Thermostat
This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequent overheating, the safety device will stop the power supply to the appliance. If this happens, call your local Service Force Centre. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
The cooling fan
The cooling fan is designed to cool the walls of the oven and the components of the oven itself.
The fan switches on automatically after a few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown out through the aperture near the oven door handle. When the oven is switched off, the fan will remain on in order to cool the oven and kitchen cabinets properly, after which it switches off automatically.
NOTE: The fan may run up to 45 minutes after cooking has been completed. Leaving the door ajar will lessen the cooling time.

Attention!
Do not place pans, dripping pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil on the oven bottom. This could cause a heat build-up which would affect the baking results and damage the oven enamel.
Before the First Use
Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the appliance, before using it.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
•Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand temperatures of 250°C.
•Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven, or placed on the oven base.
•Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food inside them.
AAluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath browning.
BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and underneath browning.
