Safety Chain

*

! In order
to prevent
accidental
tipping of the
appliance, for
example by
a child clim­bing onto the
oven door, the
supplied safety
chain MUST be
installed!

The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by
means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to
the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as
the chain is attached to the appliance.

Choose the screw and the screw anchor according
to the type of material of the wall behind the applian­ce. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller
than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall
requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and
60mm of length.

Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the
cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that
after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the

ground level.

Start-up and use

! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty
oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature
for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well
ventilated before switching the oven off and opening
the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly
unpleasant odour caused by protective substances
used during the manufacturing process burning away.

Setting the clock and timer

must be reprogrammed.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being
damaged.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the
oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the
control panel and the oven door. At the beginning of
the PYROLYTIC cycle, the cooling fan operates at low
speed.
! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan
remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Automatic cooking modes

BARBECUE mode
The high and direct temperature of the grill is
recommended for food which requires a high surface
temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed

MULTILEVEL mode
Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air
cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of
two racks may be used at the same time.

ROASTING mode
This combination of features increases the effectiveness of
the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating
elements through the forced circulation of the air throughout
the oven.
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and
allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook
in this mode with the oven door closed.

SPIT ROAST mode
The function is ideal for rotisserie spit cooking. Always cook
in this mode with the oven door closed.

LOW TEMPERATURE modes
This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting,
preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and
slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options
are: 40, 65, 90 °C.

!

BRIOCHE mode

Ideal for baked desserts (made using natural yeast).
Place the food inside the oven when it has heated up.
If you wish to cook a pizza, set the temperature to 220
‘C.

! The temperature and cooking duration are pre-
set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time

- automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.®
(Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking cycle

stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is
cooked. The cooking duration may be modified by a period
of several minutes, as specified in the description of the
individual functions below.

PIZZA mode
Use this function to make pizza. Please see the following
chapter for further details. It will only be possible to adjust the
duration by -5/+5 minutes.
To achieve the best possible results, we recommend that you
carefully observe the instructions below:

• Follow the recipe.

• The weight of the dough should be between 500 g and

700 g.

• Lightly grease the dripping pan and the baking trays.
Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. If
you wish to place the food in the oven after it has been
preheated, immediately following a high-temperature cooking
programme, the text “Hot” will appear on the display until the
temperature of the oven has fallen to 120°. At this point it will
be possible to place the pizza in the oven.
