How to use your oven
The various features offered by your oven are selected by
means of selector knob “B” and thermostat “C” situated
on the control panel.
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recom
mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting
and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing
in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door
and let the room air. The odour that is often detected dur
ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in
stalled.
Notice: Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom
shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from
dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling
food or when using the rôtisserie (only available on cer
tain models). For all other types of cooking, never use the
bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of
the oven when it is in operation because this could dam
age the enamel. Always place your cookware (dishes, alu
minium foil, etc. etc.) on the grid provided with the appli
ance inserted especially along the oven guides.
N.B.: Should the appliance be equipped with an electronic
programmer, to use the electric oven, just press button 0
(the symbol will appear on the display) before selecting
the desired cooking function.
Thermostatically controlled oven (Fan Assisted
Mode)
When the oven control knob (B) is turned in a clockwise
direction to the symbol J the fan and oven light will come
on to assist in the defrosting of frozen food. Rotating further
to the complete range of temperatures shown on the dial
you can choose which is most suitable for the food you
are going to cook. The temperature is reached
automatically and controlled by the oven thermostat (from
60“C to MAX).
Note: Whilst using tag oven for conventional cooking knob
(C) must be set with “MAX” in line with the reference mark
on the control panel.
Grill □
Both of the top heating elements turn on. On this setting,
food is cooked by the thermal radiation given off in the
downward direction by the electric heating element. The
very high temperature and direct heat of the grill make it
possible to brown meats on the surface while locking ,n
the juices to keep them tender.
The oven light
Set knob “B” to the J symbol to turn it on. It lights the
oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating ele
ments in the oven come on.
Clock with Country Style timer
How to reset the correct time
The oven must be plugged in.
Pull the knob and turn it anticlockwise until you set the correct
time.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, some
models are equipped with a cooling fan which comes on
automatically when the oven is hot.
When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard
exiting between the oven door and the control panel.
Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until
the oven cools down sufficiently.
Timer Feature
The timer feature allows you to enter a given amount of time
from which the timer begins to count down. This feature does
not turn the oven on or off; it merely sounds when the time has
elapsed.
How to set the timer
Turn the knob anticlockwise until the marker lines up with the
desired time (internal scale), which can be seen in the “window”.
The time countdown will begin immediately.
To interrupt the timer buzzer, or to use only the clock feature, set
the marker to the ^ symbol.
NB.: The programmer is electrically powered, therefore in the
event of a power shortage, it will stop working for the entire
duration of the same. Following this power failure, the correct
time will have to be reset.
Electronic Cooking Programmer
The programmer makes it possible to preset the oven and
the grill in terms of;
• delay start with a preset length of time for cooking;
• immediate start with a preset length of time for cooking;
• timer.

or turns off, but, rather, it only emits an acoustic signal when
the preset time has run out.
