.
Where both hob unit and an oven are
to be installed adjacent to each other,
both appliances may be supplied via
the same double pole isolating switch
using separate supply cables. Check that
the total loading of the installation is within the capacity of the double pole isolating switch and the supply circuit.
Allow sufficient length in the supply
cable(s) for removal of the appliance(s)
for any subsequent servicing. Ensure
that this extra cable is not trapped and
is not in contact with the underside of
any hob when fitting the appliance(s) in

General features
This is a MULTI-FUNCTION oven.
As its name indicates, this is an oven
that presents particular features from an
operational point of view.
In fact, it is possible to insert 7 different
programs to satisfy every cooking need.
The 7 positions, thermostatically controlled, are obtained by 4 heating elements which are:
- Lower element 1400 W
- Upper element 1000 W
- Grill element 2500 W
- Circular element 2500 W

Operating principles
Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following ways:
a. by normal convection. The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
b. by forced convection
A fan sucks in the air contained in the oven muffle, which sends it through the circular
heating element and then sends it back through the muffle. Before the hot air is
sucked back again by the fan to repeat the described cycle, it envelops the food in
the oven, provoking a complete and rapid cooking.
It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.
c. by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
d. by radiation
The heat is irradiated by the infra red grill element.
e. by radiation and ventilation
The irradiated heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout the oven
by the fan.

Thermostat knob
This only sets the cooking temperature
and does not switch the oven on.
Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 to 250°C)
OVEN
The upper and lower heating elements
come on. The heat is dispersed by natural convection and the temperature
must be set to between 50° and 250°C
via the thermostat knob.
The oven must be preheated before
cooking.
Recommended for:
Food that requires the same degree of
cooking both inside and out, for example
roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.

thawed by ventilation without heating.
Recommended for:
Quick thawing of frozen foods; one kg
requires approximately 1 hour.
Thawing times vary according to the
quantity and type of food to be thawed.
GRILL
The infrared electrical resistance comes
on. The heat is dispersed by radiation.
Use with the thermostat knob set to
200°C and the oven door closed
.
For co okin g hin ts, see the chapter
“GRILLING and AU GRATIN”.
Caution: The oven door becomes
very hot during operation. Keep
children well out of reach.
Recommended for:
Intense grilling, browning, cooking au
gratin and toasting etc.
It is recommended that you do not
grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
7 - Function Oven
13
GRILL & FAN
The infrared grill and the fan come on.
The heat is dispersed mainly by radiation and the fan then distributes it all
over the oven.
Use with the door closed.
The temperature can be regulated via the thermostat knob to between 50° and 175° max.
The oven must be preheated for approximately 5 minutes. For cooking hints,
see the chapte r “GRILLING AND
COOKING AU GRATIN.
Caution: The oven door becomes
very hot during operation. Keep
children well out of reach.
Recommended for:
Grilling where quick browning on the
outside is required to keep the juices in.
For example: veal steaks, chops, hamburgers etc.
It is recommended that you do not
grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
WARMER
The upper resistance, the circular resistance and the fan come on.
The heat is dispersed by forced convection with greater intensity in the upper
part.
The temperature can be set to between
50° and 140°C via the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
Keeping food warm after any type of
cooking. Slow heating of cooked food.
CONVENTIONAL & FAN
The upper and lower heating elements
come on and the fan.
The heat coming from above and below
is dispersed by convection with ventilation.
The temperature can be set to between
50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
Voluminous dishes and large quantities
which require the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example
rolled roasts, turkey, roast legs, cakes
etc.
7 - Function Oven
FAN OVEN
The circular resistance and fan come
on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection and the temperature can be regulated to between 50° and 250°C via the
thermostat knob. The oven does not
require preheating.
Recommended for:
Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example
lasagne, lamb, roast beef, whole fish
etc.

Regeneration
Set the switch to position CON-
VENTIONAL & FAN and the ther-
mostat knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with
a few drops of water and put into the
oven for about 10 minutes at the highest
temperature.
Simultaneous cooking of
different foods
The MULTI-FUNCT ION oven set on
position
CONVENTIONAL &
FAN consents a simultaneous hetero-
geneous cooking of different foods.
Different foods such as fish, cake and
meat can be cooked together without
mixing the smells and flavors together.
This is poss ible since the f ats and
vapor s are oxid ized while passing
through the electrical element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.
The only precaution to follow are:
– The cooking temperatures of the dif-
ferent foods must be as close to as
possible, with a maximum difference of
20° - 25 °C.
– The introduction of the different dishes
in the oven must be done at different
times in relation to the cooking times
of each one.
The time and energy saved with this type
of cooking is obvious.
Grilling and “au gratin”
Grilling may be done without the roasting
jack on position
GRILL & FAN of
the switch, because the hot air completely
envelops the food that is to be cooked.
Set the thermostat to position 175 °C
and after having preheated the oven,
simply place the food on the rack.
Close the door and let the oven operate
with the thermostat on position 175 °C,
until grilling is done.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the
end of the cooking time gives the golden
“au gratin” effect.
It is recommended that you do not
grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.

Normal Cooking without the use of the Programmer
To manually use the oven, that is, without the aid of the programmer, it is necessary
to cancel the flashing AUTO by pushing the button (AUTO will be switched off and
the symbol will go on).
Attention: If the AUTO is steady lighted (which means a cooking program has already
been inserted), by pushing the button you will cancel the program and revert to
manual operation.
If the oven is switched on, remember you must switch off manually.
Electronic Timer
The timer program consists only of a buzzer which may be set for a maximum period
of 23 hours and 59 minutes.
If the AUTO is flashing push the button.
To set the time, push the button and the or until you obtain the desired time
in the panel (fig. 8). Having finished the setting, the clock hour will appear on the panel
and the symbol will be lighted.
The countdown will start immediately and may be seen at any moment on the panel
by simply pressing the button . At the end of the time, the symbol will be switched
off and an intermittent buzzer will sound; this can be stopped by pressing one of any
of the buttons.
Setting the frequency of the Audible Signal
The selection from 3 possibilities of sound can be made by pressing the button.
The last setting remains on.
Setting the Automatic Oven Cooking
To cook food automatically in the oven, it is necessary to:
1. Set the length of the cooking time
2. Set the end of the cooking time
3. Set the temperature and the oven cooking program.
These operations are done in the following way:
1. Set the length of the cooking time by pushing the button and the button to
advance, or to go back if you have passed the desired time. The AUTO and the
symbol will be on.
2. Set the end of the cooking time by pressing the button (the cooking time already
added to the clock time will appear), and the button; if you pass the desired time
you may get back by pushing the button.
After this setting, the symbol will go off. If after this setting, the AUTO flashes on the
panel and a buzzer sounds, it means there was an error in the programming, that is that
the cooking cycle has been superimposed on the clock. In this case, modify the end of cooking time or the cooking time itself by following again the above mentioned instructions.
Electronic programmer

Attention: A power-cut makes the clock go to zero and cancels the set programs.
After a power-cut, three zeros will flash on the panel.
Setting the Semi-Automatic Oven Cooking
This is used to switch automatically off the oven after the desired cooking time has
elapsed. To effect the semi-automatic cooking there are two ways:
1. Set the length of the cooking time by pushing the button and the button to
advance, or to go backwards if you have passed the desired time.
or
2. Set the end of the cooking time by pushing the button and the button to

The oven is now programmed and everything will work automatically.
Referring to the example in Figure 28:
– the oven will come on at 7.00 (end x of the red sector G)
– cooking duration 2 hours
– end of cooking at 9.00 - oven will switch off and the “0” will appear in the window
(E).
When the “0” appears in the window (E) this means that cooking has finished; zero the
function selector and thermostat knob and reset the programmer to manual by rotating
the larger outer knob (B) clockwise until the symbol appears in the window (E).
Excluding the programmer
To use the oven manually the programmer must be excluded by turning the larger outer
knob (B, Fig. 28) clockwise until the symbol appears in the window (E, Fig. 28).
Programmer
The semicircular programming window (D) rotates clockwise, operated by the larger
outer knob (B).
The end (x) of the semicircular window (D) is the end of cooking indicator.
The end (y) of the red sector (G), which can be seen by rotating the knob (B) anticlockwise, is the beginning of cooking indicator.
The red section (G) shows the cooking time.
When “0” appears in the window (E) this indicates that cooking is finished.
Automatic cooking (Fig. 8)
If you wish the oven to switch on and off automatically:
1. Set the end of cooking time within a 12 hour range
2. Set the beginning of cooking time (end of cooking time minus cooking time)
3. Set the oven function and temperature.
These operations are carried out as follows:
1. Set the end of cooking time by turning the larger outer knob (B) clockwise until the
end (x) of the semicircular window (D) coincides with the required time.
If you go beyond the required time, you must repeat the whole cycle as it is not possible to scroll in reverse.
2. Set the beginning of cooking time by rotating the larger knob (B) anticlockwise until
the end (y) of the red sector (G) coincides with the required time.
The red sector (G) indicates the cooking time (max 3 hours 45 minutes) and therefore
the period the oven remains on.
As the cooking time elapses the red sector will rotate together with the clock hand.
3. Set the required cooking function and temperature via the function selector and thermostat knob.
