FUNCTIONS

OFF

For switching off the oven.

LIGHT

For switching on the light in the compartment.

CONVENTIONAL

For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.

It is best to use the 2nd shelf.

DIAMOND CLEAN

The action of the steam released during this
special low-temperature cleaning cycle allows dirt
and food residues to be removed with ease. Pour 200
ml of drinking water on the bottom of the oven and
use the function for 35’ at 90°C. Activate the function
when the oven is cold and let it cool down for 15'
once the cycle ends.

CONVECTION BAKE

For baking cakes with juicy fillings on a single
shelf. This function can also be used for cooking on
two shelves. Switch the position of the dishes to
cook food more evenly.

GRILL

For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages,
cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread. When
grilling meat, we recommend using a drip tray to
collect the cooking juices: position the pan on any
of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml of
drinking water.

of the levels below the wire shelf and add 500 ml of
drinking water.

DEFROSTING

For defrosting food more quickly.

LOWER HEATING

Useful for browning the base of the dish. This
function is recommended also for slow-cooking, for
finishing the cooking of juicy dishes, and making
sauce concentrates.

FORCED AIR

For cooking different foods that require the
same cooking temperature on several shelves
(maximum three) at the same time. This function can
be used to cook different foods without odours
being transferred from one food to another.

best to use the 2nd shelf.

USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

EN

.HEAT THE OVEN

A new oven may release odours that have been left
behind during manufacturing: this is completely
normal.
Before starting to cook food, we therefore
recommend heating the oven with it empty in order
to remove any possible odours.

Remove any protective cardboard or transparent lm
from the oven and remove any accessories from inside it.

icon.

Heat the oven to 250° C for about one hour,
preferably using the “Convection bake” function. The
oven must be empty during this time.
Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.

Notes: It is advisable to air the room after using the
appliance for the first time.

3. PREHEATING

Once the function has been activated, the LED
thermostat will switch on signalling that the
preheating process has begun.
At the end of this process, the LED thermostat
switches off indicating that the oven has reached the
set temperature: At this point, place the food inside
and proceed with cooking.

Please note: Placing the food in the oven before
preheating has finished may have an adverse effect on the
final cooking result.

. SETTING THE TIMER

This option does not interrupt or activate cooking but
allows you to use the display as a timer, both while a
function is active and when the oven is off.

To activate the timer, turn the timer knob to the
desired length of time: an acoustic signal will warn
you when the count-down is finished.
