TOP OVEN GENERAL FEATURES
This is a conventional oven with 2 cooking positions, thermostatically controlled, obtained
by 3 heating elements (top, bottom and grill).
TOP OVEN OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the CONVENTIONAL oven are obtained in two following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
b. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element.
BOTTOM OVEN 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 (top, bottom, grill and circular).
BOTTOM OVEN 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, which circulates it through the
circular heating element and then forced back into the oven by the fan. Before
the hot air is sucked back again 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 radiated by the infra red grill element.
e. by radiation and ventilation
The heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan.
f. by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.

FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB
Rotate the function selector knob clockwise to set the oven to one of the following functions.
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 LIGHT AND COOLING FAN
By setting the function selector knob to this position, the oven light comes on (15 W).
It remains on in all the cooking modes.
There is also a cooling fan that comes on when you select any function for the top
oven. It will remain on all through the cooking period and for a short time afterwards
TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING
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.

GRILLING
The infrared grill comes on. The heat is dispersed by radiation.
Use with the thermostat knob set to 200°C max and the oven door closed.
For cooking hints, see the below chapter “GRILLING and AU GRATIN”.
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.
Caution: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children
well out of reach.
Always grill with the oven door closed
COOKING IN A CONVENTIONAL TOP OVEN
– The oven has two heating elements, one in the base and one in the roof of the
oven. Hot air rises, so the top of the oven is always the hottest. The temperature in
the middle of the oven is maintained at the temperature set by the thermostat control
knob, and is slightly hotter above and cooler below.
– In a conventional oven, dishes requiring different temperatures can be cooked in the
oven at the same time - e.g. roast beef and Yorkshire pudding.
– Always pre-heat a conventional oven before use. The oven indicator light will go out
when the required temperature is reached. Do not open the oven door during cooking unless absolutely necessary.
– IMPORTANT: Drip trays, baking trays etc. must not be left on the base of the oven
as this could damage the appliance.
GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”
Switch the grill on by setting the function selector knob to the required position
and the thermostat knob to position 200°C max.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed.
Place the food inside positioning the grill pan as near as possible to the grill.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one
time.
Remember to keep children away from the appliance when you use the grill
or oven, since these parts become very hot.
