The installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel must be followed. Incorrect
installation may cause harm or injury to people, animals or things. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for such harm or injury.

FITTING THE OVEN INTO THE KITCHEN UNIT

Fit the oven into the space provided in the kitchen unit: it may be fitted underneath a work top
or into an upright cupboard.
Fix the oven in position by screwing into place, using the four fixing holes in the frame.
To locate the fixing holes, open the oven door and look inside.
To allow adequate ventilation, the measurements and distances indicated in the diagram on
page 15 must be adhered to when fining the oven.
Note: For ovens that are combined with a hob unit the instructions contained in the manual for
the hob unit must be followed.

IMPORTANT

If the oven is to work properly, the kitchen housing must be suitable.
The panels of the kitchen unit that are next to the oven must be made of a heat resistant mate­rial. Ensure that the glues of units made of veneered wood can withstand temperatures of at
least 120 °C. Plastics or glues that cannot withstand such temperatures will melt and deform
the unit. Once the oven has been lodged inside the unit, the electrical parts must be comple­tely insulated. This is a legal safety requirement. All guards must be firmly fixed into place so
that it impossible to remove them without using spe cial tools.

Remove the back of the kitchen unit to ensure an adequate current of air circulates
around the oven. The hob must have a rear light of at least 45 mm.

Connecting to the power supply

Plug into the power supply . Ensure first that there is a third contact that acts as earthing for the
oven. The oven must be properly earthed.
If the model of oven is not fitted with a plug, fit a standard plug to the power cable. It must be
able to bear the power supply indicated on the specifications plate. The earthing cable is yel­low-green. The plug must be fitted by a properly qualified person.
If the socket and the plug are incompatible the socket must be changed by a properly qualified
person. Aproperly qualified person must also ensure that the power cables can carry the cur­rent required to operate the oven.
An ON/OFF switch with a minimum distance of 3 mm between contacts may also be connec­ted to the power supply. The connections must take account of the current supplied and must
comply with current legal requirements. The yellow-green earthing cable must not be gover­ned by the ON/OFF switch. The socket or the ON/OFF switch used for connecting to the
power supply must be easily accessible when the oven has been installed.
Important: During installation, position the power cable in such a way that it will not subjected
to temperatures of above 50°C at any point.
The oven complies with safety standards set by the regulatory bodies. The oven is safe to use
only if it has been adequately earthed in compliance with current legal requirements on wiring
safety. You must ensure that the oven has been adequately earthed.
The cabling and wiring system must be able to bear the maximum electric power required by
the oven. This is indicated on the specifications plate.
If you are in any doubt at all, use the services of a professionally qualified person.

The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any harm or injury to persons, ani­mals or thinas caused bv failure to properly earth the oven.

WARNING: the voltage and the supply frequency are showed on the rating plate (fig. 4 ­pag. 15).

General warnings

Thank you for choosing one of our products. To get the most out of your oven we recom­mend that you:
Read the notes in this manual carefully: they contain important instructions on how to install,
use and service this oven safely.
Keep this booklet in a safe place for easy, future reference.

When the oven is first switched on it may give out acrid smelling fumes. This is because the
bonding agent for insulating panels around the oven has been heated up for the first time.
This is a completely normal, if it does occur you merely have to wait for the fumes to clear befo­re putting the food into the oven.
An oven by its very nature becomes very hot. Especially the glass of the oven door.
Do not allow children to go near the oven when it is hot, especially when the grill is on.
A specially designed protector shield (some models only) which reduces considerably the sur­face temperature of the oven door can be obtained through our service organization. This
shield is recommended for households with young children.

This appliances complies with Directives 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC and following changes.

When you have unpacked the oven, make sure that it has not been damaged in any way.
If you have any doubts at all, do not use it: contact a professionally qualified person.
Keep packing materials such as plastic bags, polystyrene, or nails out of the reach of
children because they are dangerous for children.

IMPORTANT

The oven must be used only for the purpose for which it was designed: it must only be used
for cooking food.

Any other use, e.g. as a form of heating, is an improper use of the oven and is therefore dangerous.
The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper, incorrect
or unreasonable use.

extensions.
– If the oven breaks down or develops a fault switch it off at the mains and do not touch it.
If the cable is at all damaged it must be replaced promptly. When replacing the cable, follow
these instructions.
Remove the power cable and replace it with one of equal length that has been insulated in
rub

ber

of the type H05RR-F, H05VV-F, H05V2V2-F. The cable must be able to bear the electrical

current required by the oven.

Cable replacement must be carried out by properly qualified tech­nicians.
The earthing cable (yellow-green) must be 10 mm longer than the power cable.

Use only an approved service centre for repairs and ensure that only original parts are used. If the
above instructions are not adhered to the manufacturers cannot guarantee the safety of the oven.

without the protein content of the food being changed or altered.

Fan plus lower element

This function is ideal for delicate dishes (pies-souffle).

Natural convection

Bottom and top oven elements are used. This is the traditional form of
baking and roasting. It is ideal for roasting joints of meat and game,
baking biscuits and apples and making the food nice and crunchy. You
will get the best results if you put the food on the same shelf and set the
temperature between 50°C and 240°C.

on large size dishes.

Controls

As well as the Electronic 24 hour clock
with auto-timer and minute minder, there
are two control dials. The right hand dial
controls temperature and the left hand
dial controls the variable grill.

Temperature Control Functions

The oven temperature control can be mo­ved from 50°C to MAX. The first setting at
50°C allows defrosting to take place.

Oven Function

The oven function is fitted with a circular heating element surrounding a fan, a top element which is
used for grilling. To switch on the oven, the function dial must be turned clockwise past the
light position, the oven temperature can then be controlled by this dial, the oven temperature
light will come on immediately the oven is switched on and will go out when the desired temperatu­re is reached. The light will then switch on and off intermittently while the oven maintains the cor­rect temperature. The fan will operate continuously while the oven is on. If the Oven Indicator Light
does not come on when the control or temperature functions are selected, check that the
timer is set to the manual position.

Cooling Fan

A flow of air will be projected from below the control panel when the oven thermostat is switched on.

Oven Controls

Defrosting Fan and heating element at 50°C.

For fan oven cooking, both the fan and the element surrounding it operate
together. The temperature is adjustable between 50°C and MAX (2,2 kW)
and the hot air is therefore evenly distributed around the oven. This is ideal
for cooking several types or food at the same time and for batch baking.

Grill Function

The grill control is designed to provide variable heat control by turning the
control knob clockwise with a 1 - 6 settings, 6 providing the maximum (2,2
kW) to be used when grilling larger quantities of food. Do not operate the
oven control when grilling.
