IMPORTANT NOTICE TO THE USER

The base element is concealed beneath the bottom of the oven to make the oven easier
to clean and contribute to better access into the oven.

Because the element is concealed beneath the oven the following rules will need to be
observed during cooking to ensure optimum performance from the oven.

DO NOT PLACE ALUMINIUM FOIL OR METAL OBJECTS ON THE BASE OF THE OVEN
DURING COOKING.
Foil or dishes must never be placed on the base of the oven during cooking as the con­centration of the direct and reflected heat will damage the enamel surface. Provisions of
the warranty do not cover damage resulting from such use.

NOTES FOR THE INSTALLATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

The appliance must be installed in accordance with all relevant codes laid down by
Electrical Supply Authorities. The original installation and adjustment must be made by a
licensed electrician.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The appliances are provided with a three-pole feeding cable and work with alternate cur­rent and single-phase voltage indicated on the rating plate of the product and in the
instruction manual and on the product. The grounding conductor of the cable is marked
with the colours yellow/green.

CONNECTION OF THE FEEDING CABLE TO THE MAINS

Connect the feeding cable of the oven to a plug suitable for the load indicated on the
rating plate of the product. In case of a direct connection to the mains (cable without plug),
it is necessary to insert a suitable omnipolar switch before the appliance, with minimum
opening between contacts of 3 mm (the grounding wire should not be interrupted by the
switch).

Before connecting to the mains, make sure that:

• The electrical counter, the fuse, the feeding line and the socket are
adequate to withstand the maximum load required (see rating
plate).

• The supply system is regularly grounded, according to the regula­tions in force.

• The socket or the omnipolar switch can easily be reached after the
installation of the oven.

• After carrying out the connection to the mains, check that the sup­plying cable does not come into contact with parts subject to heating.

• Never use reductions, shunts, adaptors which can cause overheating or burning.

The manufacturer is not liable for any direct or indirect damage caused by faulty installa­tion or connection. It is therefore necessary that all installation and connection operations
are carried out by qualified personnel complying with the local and general regulations in
force.

INSERTION AND ASSEMBLY

Insert the oven into the opening of the cabinet, resting it on the base and pushing it as far
as the ledge of the side stanchions against the shoulder of the cabinet. For the dimen­sions of the oven see cabinet and technical data.

9

NOTES FOR THE INSTALLATION

•Open the door and fix the oven with four wood
screws to be screwed up through the holes in the
side stanchions of the oven.

Pay attention to fix the oven in an absolutely firm way,
as indicated. If the oven is hard wired, ensure that the
wiring is fixed securely into the terminal block to
prevent contact with metallic parts.

Once the electrical connection has been carried out, apply voltage to the oven only
after installing it.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The selector A and thermostat B control is used to select the various oven func­tions and to choose the cooking temperatures best corresponding to the food to be
cooked. During oven operation the lamp will always remain on.

FAN GRILL

Grill element and the oven-fan operated; turn the thermostat to position 200 °C
Grill Element and Fan. Use for grilling meats, vegetables and poultry.

Preheat oven, place food on grill rack in baking tray and place in the middle of

the oven. Other foods may be cooked underneath whilst grilling.
The oven door must be closed for all cooking methods.

GRILL

Grill element operated; turn the thermostat to position 200 °C.

Grill Element - Use for toasting and melting cheese or browning. No longer than
5 minutes cooking time. To operate, select Full Grill Function along with the

temperature.

DEFROST

The oven-fan is operated; by stirring the cold air inside the oven, it aids a quick

defrosting of frozen products. No heating elements are operated.

FAN FORCED

Back heating element and the oven-fan operated; temperature adjustable from

50°C to MAX on the thermostat.

The circular heating element and fan come into operation and the heat is spread
evenly to all shelf positions. Various types of food can be cooked on different
shelves, naturally with the appropriate cooking times. The oven must be preheated
before the foods are placed inside. Fan mode provides optimum results with:
cakes (soft and thick), large quantities of foods and cooking various dishes
simultaneously. To operate, select Fan Forced function along with the temperature.

The oven door must be closed for all cooking methods

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

COMPONENT OPERATION

MINUTE-COUNTER

To use the minute-counter, wind up the ringer rotating the knob
clockwise by one complete rotation. Then turn it backwards until the
chosen time is reached (max. 60 minutes).
When the preset time has elapsed, the acoustic signal starts up.
Upon the acoustic signal the minute-counter does not interrupt the
functioning of the oven.

PILOT LIGHT OF THE THERMOSTAT (°C)

It comes on any time the oven is heating and switches off when the oven reaches the
preset temperature.

SAFETY THERMOSTAT

It cuts out the electric supply preventing possible overheating when the appliance is not
correctly used. In this case, wait until the oven cools down before using it again. On the
other hand, if a fault is present with components, we advise calling the Technical
Assistance Service.

COOLING MOTOR

The oven has a built in fan for cooling the oven cavity. The fan starts automatically when

using the oven.

12

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COOKING

It is necessary to pre-heat the oven to the
preset cooking temperature. Only very fat
meat can be placed into a cold oven. To
minimise food splashes into the oven
(which can sometimes produce smoke)
deep baking dishes are recommended.

Practical hints to save energy

The oven can be switched off some minu­tes before the end of cooking. The residual
temperature is enough to complete
cooking. Open the oven door only when it is absolutely necessary. To check the cooking
progress, look through the glass (the oven lamp is always on).

General Advice

The oven offers various kinds of heating:

• Traditional heating for the cooking of special roasts that require slow cooking.

• Fan forced - for cooking cakes, biscuits and similar.

• If the fan forced cooking is chosen, you can put your roast meat (as an
example) on various shelf positions. You can also cook multiple dishes in the
oven at the same time to help save energy.

PROTECTION FILTER OF THE OVEN FAN

During the cooking of fatty products, to avoid too much fat
residue striking the fan, the filter should be placed in the oven
before use. When cooking is finished and oven cools, remove
the filter and wash it carefully. Install the filter by leaning it
against the rear wall at the same level of the fan, then push the
tang downwards. Reverse this operation to remove the filter.

ATTENTION:

The filter should be only used when cooking fatty foods.
Better cooking results for non fatty foods will be achieved
without the filler installed.

COOKING TIMES

• The times indicated in the table refer to the cooking of one food only. For more
than one food, the cooking times should be increased by 5 - 10 minutes.

For beef, veal, pork and turkey roasts with bones or rolled, add about 20 minutes
to the times shown in the table.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Caution: before any operation, disconnect electrically the oven.

GENERAL CLEANING

To keep the characteristics of brightness of the enamelled parts for a long time it is neces­sary to clean the oven after each use. Once the oven is cold, you will be able to easily
remove the fat deposits by means of a sponge or a cloth damp with warm soapy water
and eventually a detergent to be found on the market. Never use abrasive cloths or spon­ges, that could irreparably damage the enamel.
panel such as handgrip and knob have to be cleaned each time because they may beco­me yellow due to the emissions of fat vapours. After the use, rinse throughly with water
the parts in stainless steel and dry them with a soft cloth or with a bockskin. In case of per­sistent stain, use the normal non-abrasive cleaning agents or one of the specific products
for stainless steel or some warm vinegar. Clean the door glass only with warm water, avoi­ding the use of rough cloths.

Ovens with facility to lower grill for cleaning purposes

On white ovens even the parts of the control

1 Warning: ensure that all controls are in the “OFF”

position and wait for the grill element to cool.

2 Support the front of the grill element while you

remove the knurled screw retaining the element.

3 Lower the front of the element carefully to the rest

position.

4 When cleaning the oven take care to not apply

any forces to the grill element

5 When the cleaning is complete, carefully remove

any cleaning chemicals and water from the grill
element.

6 Carefully raise the front of the element into position and secure with the knur-

led screw.

NEVER USE THE OVEN WITH THE GRILL ELEMENT HANGING DOWN!

Replacing the oven bulb

Once the oven has been electrically disconnected, unscrew the
glass protection cap and the bulb, replacing it with another one
suitable for high temperatures (300°C / E14). Reassemble the
glass cap and reconnect the oven.

15

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the oven door

ATTENTION: for your safety, before removing the glasses you should

remove the oven door.

1. Set the oven door wide open.

2. Lift the hinge jumpers with your thumb and index fingers, then turn them fully

outwards to the end of stroke (Fig.A).

3. Turn the door towards the closure position and lay it on the jumpers: in this

way the hinge's spring is blocked. By fully closing the door the hinges are
unhooked from the connection slits which are integral with the oven muffle
(sequence 1,2,3 of fig.B).

A

Re-assemble the door by carrying-out the aforesaid operations in the opposite
order.

B

Disassembling of the door glasses

To facilitate the cleaning, after having removed the door from the oven, you
can proceed with the disassembly of the glass. Release the two upper
blocks (picture C) so that the glass can be removed (picture D). After
the cleaning you should reassemble the glass, replace the blocks and

lock into position. Check that all components have been assembled correctly
and than you can re-assemble the door onto the oven.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Care of Catalytic Liners. (If your oven has had these fitted)

Splashes of food and fats from cooking will collect on the catalytic liner.
After cooking a dish with high fat content or when you can see grease spots
on the liners, it is recommended that you :
* Remove baking dishes and oven racks
* Wipe out the bottom of the oven and clean the door
* Turn oven to 220°C for approximately 20 minutes
* When oven is cool, wipe out bottom of the oven
Manual cleaning of the catalytic liner is not recommended. Damage will occur
if soap impregnated steel wood pads, aerosol cleaners and any other
abrasives are used.

Slight discolouration and polishing of the Catalytic surface may occur in time.
This does not affect the Catalytic properties in any way.
