Top oven programme selector knob

B For selecting the oven mode according to the type of cooking required. When the knob is set to any programme, the

oven light comes on indicating that the oven is switched on. The set temperature only refers to the static operation
mode.

C Bottom oven programme selector knob

For selecting the oven mode according to the type of cooking requ ired. When the knob is set to any programme, the
oven light comes on indicating that the oven is switched on.

D ProgrammerOn page you can find the instructions relevant to its use.
E Thermostat light

Shown by the symbol C it signals that the oven electrical heating elements are activated. It goes off when the set
temperature has been reached, and comes on again whenever oven heating is switched on again. It is for useful
checking if the temperature has been reached, before introducing the food.
F Bottom oven temperature control knob
(Thermostat)
Used to set the temperature required for the type of food being cooked, keeping it constant during cooking. To select the
required temperature, turn the knob clockwise, bringing the pointer to the corresponding number. Max. temperature is
approx. 260°C.
G Top oven power adjustment
Used to set the temperature required for the type of food being cooked, keeping it constant during cooking. To select the
required temperature,turn the knob clockwise, bringing the pointer to the corresponding number. Max. temperature is
approx. 260°C.
H Grill and drip-tray runners
Used for correctly positioning the grills and drip-trays in 3 set positions (top oven) or 5 set positions (bottom oven) (from
1 to 3 or 5 starting from the bottom); the cooking table (page 9) indicates which position gives best results for each type
of cooking.
I Drip-tray
Normally used for collecting juices from grilled food or for cooking food directly; the drip-tray must be removed from the
oven if not used. The drip-trays are made from “AA” type enamelled steel for food use.

4

L Grill Used for supporting pans, pastry moulds, and any containers other than the drip-trays provided, or for cooking mainly wiwith the meat and
fish grill

and grill + fan functions, toasting bread, etc.

Oven light
This symbol corresponds to switching on of the oven light without activation of any type of heating. This option is useful for
cleaning the oven when it is switched off, to see the cooking compartment.

Bottom oven cooking programmes

Defrosting

Set the knob to the symbol () to obtain the defrost function.
In this case, the fan inside the oven circulates air around the food, speeding up the natural
thawing process.

Natural static cooking

Set the thermostat knob (F) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).
The heat source is above the food (roof heating element) and below it (floor heating element). This is the traditional cooking
function which ensures even cooking using a single rack.

Assisted cooking

Set the thermostat knob (E) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).
This turns on the top (roof) heating element, the bottom (floor) heating element and the fan inside the oven; compared with the
previous function (static cooking) the fan distributes the heat more evenly, so that two racks can be used at the same time.

Cooking + fan

Set the thermostat knob (F) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).
This turns on the top (roof) heating element, the bottom (floor) heating element and the fan inside the oven.
The constant and even heat cooks and browns the food evenly. Various dishes can be cooked at the same time, using a
maximum of 2 racks.

"Multi power" cooking + fan

Set the thermostat knob (E) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).
This turns on the circular heating element together with partial activation of the top (roof) and bottom (floor) heating elements and
the fan. Compared with the previous function, it is a more powerful and faster way to reach the required temperature; this, in
combination with an even temperature distribution, makes it ideal for meat and fish roasts and for baked pasta, using up to three
racks.

Pizza "quick cooking"

Set the thermostat knob (E) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).This turns on the circular heating element together with top (roof)
and bottom (floor) heating elements and fan. This is the most powerful function available on your Franke oven, and the heat

5

istribution is designed to be more intense towards the bottom; this makes it ideal for preparing pizzas or fast cooking of frozen foods in general. It
can be used for quickly bringing the oven to the required temperature, and then setting any of the other available programmes.

"Roof + fan" cooking

Set the thermostat knob (E) between 50°C and Max. (260°C).
The top (roof) heating element and the fan are activated. The low power of this function and the fan allow very gentle and even cooking. Ideal for
dry pastry and certain types of baked pasta.

Grill

The thermostat knob (F) should normally be set to Max. (260°C), however a lower temperature can be set, in
which case grilling will be slower.
The grill heating element at the top of the oven switches on. In this case the fast infrared surface cooking keeps
the meat tender on the inside; the grill can also be used for quickly toasting up to 9 slices of bread. The Franke
oven is designed to grill food with the oven door completely closed.
Warning: The grill heating element becomes very hot during use; take care not to touch it accidentally when
handling the food to be grilled; in any case, Franke has designed the oven opening to protect hands as much as
possible.

Grill + fan cooking

The thermostat knob (F) should normally be set to Max. (260°C), however a lower temperature can be set, in
which case grilling will be slower.
The grill heating element at the top of the oven and the fan are activated. It combines oneway heat radiation with
forced air circulation inside the oven. This prevents burning the surface of the food and increases penetration of
the heat. Excellent results are obtained using the grill + fan for mixed meat and vegetable kebabs, sausages,

spare-ribs and lamb chops, broiled chicken, quail with sage, pork fillets, etc.

Top oven cooking programmes

Natural static cooking
Set the power knob (G) between Min. and Max. (260°C).
The heat source is above the food (roof heating element) and below it (floor heating element). This is the traditional cooking
function which ensures even cooking using a single rack.

Light grill cooking
To activate this function, set the power with the knob (G). It is used for browning by lightly grilling or warming already cooked
food.

Full grill cooking
The power knob (G) should normally be set to Max. (260°C), however a lower temperature can be set, in which case grilling will
be slower.
The grill heating element at the top of the oven switches on. In this case the fast infrared surface cooking keeps the meat tender
on the inside; the grill can also be used for quickly toasting up to 9 slices of bread. The Franke oven is designed to grill food with
the oven door completely closed.
Warning: The grill heating element becomes very hot during use; take care not to touch it accidentally when handling the food to

be grilled; in any case, Franke has designed the oven opening to protect hands as much as possible.

Fit the appliance in the compartment; fix the oven to the cabinet with the 4 screws provided, using the holes prepared in the side panels.
Cabinet requirements
For built-in units, the components (plastic materials and veneered wood) must be assembled with heat-resistant adhesives (max.100°C):
unsuitable materials and adhesives can result in warpingand ungluing. The cabinet must allow sufficient room for the electrical connections. The
cabinet in which the oven in fitted must be strong enough to take the weight of the equipment.
The oven must be securely installed in the recess. The oven can be installed in a column cabinet, provided sufficient ventilation is guaranteed.

Button + sets the time forward.
Button - sets the time backward.

For possible clock adjustments, repeat the steps described above:
Oven manual operation
When a cooking programme is selected, the oven immediately starts heating up, as indicated by the symbol on the display.
For each programme, a recommended cooking temperature is shown on the display ; this temperature can be changed by the user with
the knob : turn anticlockwise to decrease the temperature, or clockwise to increase it.

11

The flashing symbol

on the display indicates the preheating phase, during which the oven has not yet reached the required temperature. Once the set

temperature is reached, the oven beeps for two seconds and the symbol

stops flashing (steady) to indicate the cooking phase.

Immediate start of cooking with set time

Assuming cooking for 30 minutes at 200°C
Turn the programme selector knob; the display will show a recommended cooking temperature, which ca n be adjusted with the temperature C control knob.

Press the button

and then buttons [- ] and [+] to set the required cooking duration of 30 minutes.

Release the button; after 4 seconds the flashing symbol

indicates the preheating phase. The countdown starts only when the required temperature has

been reached (except for grill function, when the countdown starts immediately; see B). The display indications are as follows:

A - preheating phase

(the set time can be checked with the button

and the temperature with the buttons .- and + )

Once the set temperature is reached, the oven beeps for two seconds and the symbol

stops flashing (steady) to indicate the cooking phase.

B - cooking phase

(remaining cooking time / set temperature - alternating)

C - end of cooking

At the end of cooking an intermittent signal (**) will sound for 1 minute, which can be silenced with the button + ,

and stop ,; the display will show

the message

12

The oven will automatically switch off the heating, the fans will stay on to prevent residual heat, and the lighting remains on for checking cooking. The

temperature may remain high for several minutes. To continue cooking manually, press

to reactivate heating.

The message AUTO disappears, and the symbol

will reappear. To stop everything, turn the programme selector knob to 0. For 3 seconds the display will

show

After which, the current time will be displayed (to dim the display with the oven off, press the buttons ,

and stop , and the following will appear:

with buttons [-] and [+] set this parameter to:

the display will go off and reactivates only when the oven is operating).

(**): the volume can be changed when the buzzer is on and for subsequent signalling, by pressing the button ----

Starting of delayed cooking with set time
Set the cooking duration and the end of cooking time. Assuming the time is 8:00 h and cooking is for 30 minutes ending at 13:00 h.
Turn the programme selector knob; the display will show a recommended cooking temperature, which can be adjusted with the temperatu re C control knob.

Press the button

and then buttons [-] and \+\ to set the required cooking duration of 30 minutes.

Press the button

and within 4 seconds with buttons [- ] and [+] set the required end of cooking time, i.e. 13:00 h.

The display will show:

AUTO

The oven is now programmed and in standby.

To check the set duration press the button

; to adjust it operate the buttons - OR + .

To check the set temperature press a button [-] or + ; to adjust it operate the knob C .

Cooking phase:

On reaching the cooking phase the oven behaves as in point B of the previous paragraph.Except that the cooking duration countdown starts immediately, and not
after the required temperature has been reached. This is because the controller assumes that the food has alrea dy been placed in the oven at the moment of
programming. The preheating time is included in the cooking time.

Failures and Error Codes ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER ADVANCED

Whenever a failure is detected, a failure signal sounds and the display reads the belonging error code:

F3E3 Temp. sensor short circuit
F3E0 Temp. sensor open circuit
F4E0 EEPROM failure

At multiple errors, the display priority is as follows: F3E3, F3E0, F4E0.
The error message is automatically cleared when the failure is repaired. For EEPROM failure, the control has to be
reset first, for all other failures this can happen during program run.
At every failure, oven heating relay 1 is switched off.

An automatic program is cleared by pressing MANUAL button
If the mode selector is turned to Off or to Light mode, an automatic program is cleared

Standby Mode

In Standby Mode, the display gets dark at Off or Light mode, if no minute minder program is active. In Standby Mode, whenever a key is pressed,
the display is illuminated until time window has run down. DURATION, END TIME, MINUS or PLUS button have no meaning in this case, so just
time of day is displayed.

Standby setting mode is entered by pressing together MINUTE MINDER and DURATION button. The display reads "St 0/1" with flashing 0 or 1,
where 0/1 means Standby off/on. So the display gets dark when St 1 is set. Set or reset Standby Mode by PLUS or MINUS in turns.
