Controls

Your new steam oven allows you to cook your favourite dishes without losing any nutrition property and keeping their original taste. You can choose both the traditional cooking systems or the steam cooking system. To obtain the best cooking results, it is necessary to get familiar with the oven controls.

Push-Push control knobs

This model is provided with push-push control knobs. These knobs can be completely sunken inside the control panel when the oven is not working.

Oven Function Control Knob

Oven Light - The oven light will be on without any cooking function

Conventional cooking - The heat comes from

both the top and bottom element, ensuring even heating inside the oven.

Grill - The grill element will be on.

Fan cooking - This allows you to roast or roast

and bake simultaneously using any shelf, without flavour transference.

Steam cooking - The steam cooking function will

be on (see the following pages for the correct use of this cooking function).

Thermostat Control Knob

Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to select temperatures between 50°C and 250°C (MAX).

Thermostat Control Light

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.

The cooling fan

The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled through vents between the oven door and the control panel, as shown in the diagram.

The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.

The Safety Thermostat

This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequent over-heating, 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.

Before the First Use

Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

The oven will work only if the time of day has been set.

1.Set the time of day with the electronic programmer.

2.Switch the oven function control knob to fan cooking.

3.Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.

4.Open a window for ventilation.

5.Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes.

This procedure should be repeated with the grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Using the Oven

Always cook with the oven door closed.

Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the door using the door handle, until it is fully open.

The oven has four shelf levels. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.

It is important that the oven shelves are correctly positioned as shown in the diagram.

Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

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.

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 base browning.

BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

Water tank pilot lamps

Pilot lamp "water tank full"

It indicates that the oven is ready to be used for a steam cooking.

Pilot lamp "tank out of water"

It indicates that the oven cannot be used for a steam cooking and water should be poured into the water tank.

Cleaning cycle pilot lamp

It indicates that the water tank cleaning procedure sould be carried out or that the steam injector is obstructed.

How to set the oven ready for a steam cooking

Before using the oven for a steam cooking, the water tank must be filled.

To fill the water tank, open the oven door, pull out the water tank drawer, unscrew the drawer cap and pour in water using a graduated vessel, until the pilot light "FULL WATER TANK" comes on. Consider that not more than one liter of water can be poured into the water tank.

Then refit the drawer cap and push in the water tank drawer. Your oven is now ready for a steam cooking.

If too much water happens to be poured into the water tank, the exceed water will flow into the oven cavity through a safety opening. Immediately wipe the oven cavity dry with a sponge or a soft cloth.
