When the oven is first installed
Before using the appliance,
remove all packaging, both inside
and outside the appliance,
including the advertising labels
and any protective film.
Before cooking for the first time,
carefully wash the oven accessories.
Once the oven has been installed:
"
1. set the thermostat knob to 250;
2. switch the oven function control knob to
fan cooking function ;
3. allow the oven to run empty for
approximately 45 minutes;
4. open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may
be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and
is caused by residues of manufacturing.
Repeat this operation for the grill cooking
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Once this operation is carried out, let the
oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity
with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy
water.

Oven thermostat control light
This light goes off when the oven heats up
to the temperature set and comes on again
every time the thermostat cuts in to stabilize
temperature.
Safety thermostat
In order to avoid excessive overheating due
to incorrect use of the appliance or else to a
faulty component, the oven is equipped with
a safety thermostat which cuts off the power
supply if necessary. Operation is restored
automatically when the oven temperature
decreases to normal values. Therefore, if the
thermostat cuts in because you have not
been using the appliance correctly, the oven
can be used again simply by waiting for the
appliance to cool down. If, instead, the
thermostat cuts in because of a faulty
component, you should call the Service
Department.
The cooling fan
The oven is provided with a cooling fan,
meant to keep the front panel, the knobs
and the oven door handle cool.
The fan switches on automatically when the
oven is activated. Warm air is blown out
through the aperture near the oven door
handle. The fan switches off when, after
cooking, the oven function control knob is
set to OFF position

Hints and tips for using the oven
Always cook with the oven door
closed.
The oven is supplied with an exclusive system
which produces a natural circulation of air
and the constant recycling of steam.
This system makes it possible to cook in a
steamy environment and keep the dishes soft
inside and crusty outside. Moreover, the
cooking time and energy consumption are
reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam
may be produced which can be released when
opening the oven door. This is absolutely
normal.
However, always stand back from the
oven when opening the oven door during
cooking or at the end of it to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
Conventional cooking
Heat comes from the top and from the
bottom, therefore it is preferable to use the
central runners.
If cooking requires more heat from the top
or from the bottom use the top or the bottom
runners.
heights means that you can cook several
different dishes at the same time and up to
three tins of biscuits and mini pizzas to be
eaten immediately or subsequently deep
frozen.
Naturally the oven can also be used for
cooking on just one shelf. In this case you
should use the lowest set of runners so that
you can keep an eye on progress more
easily.
In addition, the oven is particularly
recommended for sterilizing preserves,
cooking home-made fruit in syrup, and for
drying mushrooms or fruit.
Grilling
When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil
on them and always place them on the oven
grid. The shelf level depends on the
thinckness of the food.
Always place the dripping pan at the lowest
level, with some water in it, to avoid smoke
and unpleasant smells.
Some hints
Fan cooking
The food is cooked by means of preheated
air force blown evenly round the inside of
the oven by a fan set on the rear wall of the
oven itself.
Heat thus reaches all parts of the oven evenly
and fast and this means that you can
simultaneously cook different types of foods
positioned on the various oven shelves (Fig.
5). Fan cooking ensures rapid elimination
of moisture and the dryer oven environment
stops the different aromas and flavours from
being transmitted from one food to another.
The possibility of cooking on several shelf

For baking cakes
Cakes require a moderate temperature
(normally between 150 °C and 200 °C). In
addition, the oven must be heated up
beforehand - for about 10 minutes.
