PRACTICAL ADVICE

COOKING RECIPIENTS

Remember that a large recipient offers a larger surface
to heat and therefore cooks food quicker than a narrow
recipient.
Always use recipients of a size suitable for the food to
be cooked. In particular, take care that recipients are
not too small for liquid preparations which could easily
spill over or that they are not too big for food which
must be cooked quickly; uncovered areas on the

ELECTRIC PLATES

bottom are easily burnt by fats and juice.
For cakes, it is preferable to use tins which do not
open. A tin which opens lets out fruit juices and sugar
which, when spilling onto the bottom of the oven,
caramelize and are difficult to clean. Avoid placing
pans with plastic handles in the oven as they may not
support the heat.

Saucepans suitable for use on solid plate hobs should
have several characteristics:

- they should be heavy duty.

- they should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly
larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller.

Rapid hot Plate

This type is indicated by a red circle in the middle of
the plate.

The red circle is painted on and so will deteriorate and
may come off completely over a period of time.

A rapid plate will heat up much more quickly than a
normal plate, and the knob is the one in Fig. 1.

- they should have a flat base to ensure good contact
with the plate (Fig. 2).

This is particularly important when using pans for high
temperature frying or pressure cooking.

Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liquids being
split onto the plates.

Never leave the plates on without a pan on them or with
an empty pan on them.

SOME ADVICE FOR THE USE OF YOUR OVEN

Traditional cooking

Heat originates from top and bottom, dishes should
preferably be placed in the middle. If cooking requires
more heat from the bottom or the top, use the upper or
lower level.

Convection cooking

Heat is transmitted to dishes by hot air forcibly
circulated inside the oven by a fan placed at the back
of the oven. By this method, heat is quickly and evenly
circulated throughout the oven, permitting several
different dishes to be cooked at the same time on
different levels.
With this cooking method, through the elimination of
humidity in the air and a drier environment, smells and
tastes are not given off and do not mix with those of
other dishes.

Thanks to this possibility of cooking on several levels,
you can cook up to three different dishes at the same
time, to be consumed immediately or frozen. You can
also cook on only one level. In this case, it is advisable
to place the dish on the lower level for better cooking
control.
This oven is particularly suitable for de-freezing
rapidly, sterilizing preserves, homemade jams and,
finally, for drying mushrooms and fruit.

Cooking in the multi-function oven

This type of oven permits different types of cooking:
traditional, convection, fanned heat and grilling;
cooking can therefore be optimized.

71

ADVICE FOR THE USE
OF YOUR TRADITIONAL OVEN

For the preparation of cakes

Pre-heat the oven, unless indicated differently, for at
least 10 minutes before use. do not open the oven
door when cooking dishes which must raise (e.g.
raised pastries and soufflés); the jet of cold air would
block the raising process.
To check if cakes are cooked, insert a toothpick into
the mixture; if it comes out clean the cake is ready.
Wait until at least 3/4 of the cooking time has passed
before doing this check.
As a general rule remember that:
A dish which is well-cooked on the outside but not
sufficiently cooked inside, would have required a longer
cooking time but lower temperature. On the contrary,
a “dry” texture would have required a shorter cooking
time but higher temperature (Fig. 14).

For the preparation of meat:

Meat to the cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1
kilo to avoid its becoming too dry. If you want roasts
with a good colour, use very little oil. If the piece is
lean, use a little oil and butter. Butter or oil are
unnecessary if the piece has a strip of fat on top. If the
piece has a strip of fat on one side only, put it in the
oven with this side upwards; when melting the fat will
grease the lower side sufficiently.
Red meat should be removed from the fridge one hour
before cooking otherwise the sudden change of tem­perature could cause it to become tough. A roast,
especially if of red meat, must not be salted at the
beginning of cooking as salt causes juices and blood
to seep out of the meat, thus preventing the formation
o a well-browned crust.
It is advisable to salt the outside the of the meat after
just over half the cooking time.
Place the roast in the oven in a dish having a low rim;
a deep dish acts as a shield and prevents heat from
circulating.
Meat can be placed on an ovenproof dish or directly
on the grill, under which the dripping pan should be
inserted to collect juice. Ingredients for gravy should
only be put in the dish immediately if cooking time is
brief, otherwise they should be added during the last
half hour.
Begin cooking rare meat at a high temperature,
reducing the temperature to finish cooking the inside.
The cooking temperature for white meat can be mode­rate throughout.
The degree of cooking can be checked by pressing the
meat with a fork; if it does not give the meat is cooked.
At the end of cooking it is advisable to wait at least 15
minutes before cutting the meat in order that the juices
are not lost. Before serving plates can be kept warm
in the oven regulated at minimum temperature.

For the preparation of fish

Cook small fish from start to finish at a high tempera­ture. Cook medium-sized fish initially at a high tempe­rature and then gradually lower the temperature. Cook
large fish at a moderate temperature from start to
finish.
Check that baked fish is cooked by gently lifting one
side of the gut; the meat must be white and opaque
throughout, except in the case of salmon, trout or
similar.
In any case, carefully follow the instructions of the
recipe you are using.

Grilling

The following types of meat are suitable for grilling.
Meat or offal cut in slices or pieces of various sizes but
not usually very thick, poultry cut in half and flattened,
fish, some vegetables (e.g. courgettes, aubergines,
tomatoes, etc.), skewers of meat or fish and seafood.
Meat and fish to be grilled should be lightly brushed
with oil and always placed on the grill; this should be
positioned on the level nearest or furthest from the grill
in order to control cooking to avoid burning the surface
or leaving the inside uncooked.
Pour 1 or 2 glasses of water into the dripping pan in
order to avoid the formation of smoke caused by drops
of juice and fat.
The grill can also be used to brown, toast bread and
grill certain types of fruit, such as bananas, halved
grapefruit, slices of pineapple, apples, etc. Fruit should
not be placed too near the source of heat.

Cooking times

Cooking times can vary according to the type of food,
its consistency and its volume.
It is advisable to watch when cooking for the first time
and check results in order to prepare the same dishes
in the same conditions and thus obtain constantly
similar results. The “table of cooking times” relating to
cooking in the oven and by grill is provided as a guide.
Experience will show possible variations to the values
set out in the table.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning of the cooker

Splashes of juice, fruit juice, etc. must be removed as
quickly as possible with a damp cloth as they could, in
time, cause the enamel to loose its shine.
To remove light scratches from the enamel, use slightly
abrasive cleaning products in powder form. Do not use
steel wool or knives to remove deposits of dirt.
For daily cleaning use soap and water or one of the
numerous products available commerically.
Wash the enamelled grills with water and a cleaning
product.
Clean the oven door with hot water only, avoid using
rough clothes or abrasive substances.
Only clean the electric plates once they have become
cold.
Both the plates themselves and their edges can be
cleaned with a fine emergy-cloth. They can be oiled
occasionally with a little vegetable oil or vaseline whilst
they are still hot.

Cleaning of the oven

Carefully clean the oven after use and whilst still
slightly warm. In fact this is when deposits of fat or
similar, fruit juices, particles of sugar or grease can be
most easily removed as they will not have had time to
become hard.
Use hot water and a cleaning product or a product in
spray form which can be obtained commercially.
When using, follow with manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not direct sprays onto parts in burnished steel, as
you could damage them.
Clean oven accessories (grill, dripping pan, etc.) with
hot water and a cleaning product.
Remove any deposits by means of a slightly abrasive
powder.

Never cover the sides or the bottom of the oven
with aluminium foil to collect splashes of fat.
The resultant accumulation of heat would affect
cooking results and could damage the enamel.

Replacement of the oven lamp (Fig. 15)

Disconnect the appliance
Unscrew the lamp and replace with another, capable
of tolerating high temperatures (300˚C) having the
following characteristics:

Tension: 230 V (50 Hz)
Power: 15W
Cap: E14

FO 0424

Cleaning of the oven door

To clean the oven door completely it is advisable to
dismount it by following these instructions (Fig. 16):

- open the door completely;

- turn the two staples positioned on the hinges’ arm
180˚;

- partially open the door to an angle of -30˚, lift the
door and remove from the front.

Replace the door by carrying out the operations
described in reverse.

CARE OF CATALYTIC SIDES

The catalytic sides can neutralise most food and splashes of grease when the temperature exceeds 220˚C.
To facilitate cleaning, it is advisable to heat the oven, empty, above this temperature for 1 to 2 hours a week.

Practical advice:

. Manual cleaning of catalytic sides is not advisable.
. These sides are irremediably damaged by the use of sprays, steel wool soaked in soap or other detergents.
. With time some discolouring of the sides may occur. This will not affect the catalytic action.
. Once the sides are saturated the cleaning process ceases. This does not effect the appliance’s operation.
. Follow the advice given below in order to reduce to a minimum the formation of splashes in the oven.

How to diminish splashes? Some advice:

Always cook at the recommended temperature. When roasting, temperatures which are too high can contribute to
the formation of splashes.
Try to cook at lower temperatures (do not, of course, forget to adapt cooking times). You will save energy and
roasted meat will be much more tender.

Use only a small quantity of fat or oil, or even no fat at all when roasting meat. The addition of fat when grilling or
roasting contributes to the formation of splashes of fat.

It is unnecessary to add water when roasting or grilling meat. The addition of water and the meat juices will
contribute, during the cooking process, to the formation of fat splashes and condensation.

The sides are better protected against splashes if the dish containing the roast is covered. In this case the covering
must be removed 20-30 minutes before the end of cooking; meat will be roasted better on the outside.
Some large pieces of meat and turkey can certainly be cooked in this way; the inside will thus be cooked before
the outside burns.

Always use the dripping pan when roasting or grilling meat.
The long life of your catalytic sides is dependent on your following this fundamental advice.

maintenance are carried out in the best possible manner and according to the regulations in force. All interventions
must be carried out with the appliance disconnected.

THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY AN

INSTALLATION WHICH DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.

Installation and maintenance of the appliance must be carried out by a professional qualified according to the articles
regulating the art in force, noteably: NBND 51003.

For appliances connected to the electricity network: regulation NBN.
We shall not be responsible in case of accidents or incidents caused by inexisting or defective earthing.

PLACEMENT

The appliance is of type X.
It has been designed to be placed between two other units whose sides can tolerate temperatures exceeding that
of the room by 75˚C.

WHEN THE COOKER IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the cooker has been installed it is important to remove the protective materials which were put on in the factory.
Switch the oven control to MAX and leave it to run, empty, for 30 minutes to remove any unpleasant new smells.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

LEVELLING

The cookers are supplied with adjustable feet fitted on
the back and front angles of the base.
The feet can be regulated (Fig. 18) to adjust the height
of the appliance to that of the neighbouring units and
for an even distribution of liquids contained in pans.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Prior to making the electric al connection, make sure
that:

- The protection fuse and the domestic wire system
are suitable to carry the total electric load of the
oven (see rating plate).

- Your domestic wiring system has an efficient earth
connection in compliance with the rules and laws in
force.

- The wall socket or the omnipole switch used for the
electrical connection can easily be reached after the
oven is built in.

The appliance is delivered without an electric supply
cable, therefore, you will have to fit to it a supply cable
with standard plug, suitable for the total electric load
shown on the rating plate.
The plug is to be inserted into a suitable wall socket.
If you require a direct connection to the electric network
(mains), it will be necessary to fit between the
appliance and the mains an omnipole switch, aith a
minimum gap between contacts of 3 mm. suitable for
the required load and in compliance with rules in force.
The green 1 yellow ground wire must not be interrupted
by the switch.
The supply cable must in all cases be laid out in such
a way as to ensure that it does not reach at any given
point a temperature 50°C higher than the ambient tem­perature.
The manufacturer disclaims any liability in case these
accident-preventing rules are not observed.
Suitable power supply cables are the following types,
considering the respective necessary section of cable.

• H07 RN-F

• H05 RN-F

• H05 RR-F

• H05 VV-F

CONNECTING THE TERMINAL BOARD

The appliance incorporates an easily accessible 6­pole terminal board whose jumpers (bridges) are
already pre-set for operation on 230 V single-phase
(Fig. 19). In case where different mains voltage is
present, the jumpers on the terminal board must be
arranged as shown in the diagram (Fig. 20).

The ground cable must be connected to terminal .
After connecting the supply cable to the terminal board,

secure it with a junction clamp.
