When the power supply is restored, the mode will have to be reprogrammed).

!There is no preheating stage for the GRILL mode.

!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, as well as towards the bottom of the oven door. At the beginning of the cleaning cycle, the cooling fan operates at low speed.

! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Oven light

The light comes on when a cooking mode starts (if enabled in the settings menu).

When models featuring LED INSIDE technology begin cooking, the LEDs on the door light up for improved illumination of all cooking levels.

Residual heat indicators

The appliance is fitted with a residual heat indicator. When the oven is off, the “residual heat” bar on the display lights up to indicate high temperatures inside the oven cavity. The individual segments of the bar switch off one by one as the temperature

6

inside the oven falls.

If no buttons are pressed for 30 minutes and the control panel/door lock has not been activated, the appliance automatically reverts to standby mode. The ECO Mode symbol appears on the display to indicate standby mode. As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, system operation is restored.

7

Modes

! In order to guarantee wonderfully soft and crunchy GB foodstuffs, the oven releases – in the form of water

vapour - the humidity naturally withheld in the food itself. In this way, optimal cooking results can be achieved for all types of food.

! Every time the oven is switched on, it suggests the first manual cooking mode.

Manual cooking modes

! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 40°C and 250°C as desired (270°C for GRILL mode). Any temperature adjustments will be stored in the appliance memory and suggested again the next time this mode is used. If the selected temperature is lower than the temperature inside the oven, the text “OVEN TOO HOT” appears on the display. However, it will still be possible to start cooking.

If cooking is started without a duration being set, the display will show the elapsed time.

MULTILEVEL mode

All heating elements and the fan are activated. 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.

GRILL mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where present) are activated. 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 (see “Practical cooking advice”).

FAN GRILLING mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where present) are activated and the fan begins to operate. During part of the cycle the circular heating element is also activated. 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 (see “Practical cooking advice”).

ROAST mode

The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. 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.

FISH mode

The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. This combination is ideal for cooking fish dishes gently.

PIZZA mode

The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. This combination heats the oven rapidly. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

PROVING mode

The circular heating element will come on and the fan will operate during the preheating stage only. The oven temperature is ideal for activating the rising process. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

PASTRY mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise).

PASTEURISATION mode

This cooking mode is suitable for fruit, vegetables, etc...

Small containers may be positioned on 2 levels (dripping pan on the 1st shelf and rack on the 3rd shelf). Let the containers cool inside the oven. Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.

SLOW COOK MEAT/FISH/VEGETABLES

modes

This type of cooking mode, used for years by industry professionals, enables food (meat, fish, fruit and vegetables) to be cooked at very low temperatures (75, 85 and 110°C), thereby guaranteeing a perfect level of cooking and enhancing the taste as much as possible. The value of these advantages should not be underestimated:

•as the cooking temperatures are very low (in general they are lower than the temperature required for evaporation), the dispersion of cooking sauces due to evaporation is substantially reduced and the food becomes softer;

8

•when cooking meat, the muscle fibres contract less than they would during a classic cooking cycle. The result is a more tender meat which does not need to be rested after it is cooked.

Meat should be browned before it is placed in the oven.

Cooking foods which have been vacuum-packed at low temperatures, a technique used for over 30 years by the most prestigious chefs, brings many advantages:

•culinary: flavours are concentrated and the taste, softness and tenderness of the food are maintained;

•hygienic: provided that hygiene regulations are respected, this type of cooking protects the food from the harmful effects of oxygen, thus ensuring that the dishes may be stored for longer in the refrigerator;

•organisational: thanks to the longer storage period, dishes may be prepared well in advance;

•diet-related: this type of cooking limits the amount of fatty substances used and therefore means that the food is lighter and easier to digest;

•financial: the food shrinks less so there is more of the product left after it has been cooked.

To use this technique, you must use a vacuumpacking machine and the appropriate bags. Follow the instructions supplied relating to vacuum-packing food carefully.

The vacuum-packing technique may also be used for raw products (fruit, vegetables, etc.) as well as pre-cooked products (traditional cooking).

DEFROSTNG mode

The fan at the bottom of the oven circulates roomtemperature air around the food. This mode is suitable for defrosting any type of food, especially delicate items that should not be heated, for example: ice-cream cakes or cakes made with custard, cream or fruit.

ECO mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate

and uniform manner throughout the entire oven.This

energy saving mode is recommended for small

dishes, ideal for heating foods and finishing off

cooking.

* Only available in certain models.

Rotisserie spit*

GB

To operate the

rotisserie function (see

diagram) proceed as

follows:

1. Place the dripping pan in position 1.

2. Place the rotisserie

support in position 3 and insert the spit in the hole provided on

the back panel of the oven.

3. Start the rotisserie function by selecting the or modes.

Automatic cooking modes

!The temperature and cooking duration are preset , 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. You may start cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not. The cooking duration can be customised according to personal taste by modifying the relevant value - before cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes depending on the selected programme. The duration can however be modified even once cooking has begun. If the value is modified before the programme begins, it is stored in the memory and suggested again by the appliance when the programme is next used. If the temperature inside the oven is higher than the suggested value for the selected mode, the text “OVEN TOO HOT” appears on the display and it will not be possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.

The icon representing the selected mode and the icon representing the recommended shelf position appear on the display alternately.

!When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven buzzer sounds.

!Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature.

Practical cooking advice

!Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fanassisted cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

!In the GRILL and FAN GRILLING cooking modes, particularly when using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTILEVEL

•Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires more heat on 2.

•Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

GRILL

•Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the centre of the rack.

•We recommend that the temperature is set to its maximum level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate constantly.

PIZZA

•Use a lightweight aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided.

For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as this extends the total cooking duration and prevents the crust from forming.

•If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese to the top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.

Precautions and tips

! This appliance has been designed and manufactured in compliance with international safety standards. The following warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read carefully.

General safety

•The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

•The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms.

•When moving or positioning the appliance, always use the handles provided on the sides of the oven.

•Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet or damp hands and feet.

•The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions provided in this booklet. Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room) constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held responsible for any damage caused as a result of improper, incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.

•Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot.

Keep children well away from the appliance.

•Make sure that the power supply cables of other electrical appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven.

•The ventilation and heat dispersal openings must never be obstructed.

•Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the ends may be hot.

•Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or when removing it.

•Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven.

•Do not place flammable materials in the oven: if the appliance is switched on accidentally, the materials could catch fire.

•When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.

•Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work without having disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains.

•If the event of malfunctions, under no circumstances should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself. Contact an authorised Service Centre (see Assistance).

•Do not rest objects on the open oven door.

•Do not let children play with the appliance.

•The appliance should not be operated by people

(including children) with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capacities, by inexperienced GB individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with

the product. These individuals should, at the very least, be supervised by someone who assumes responsibility for their safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to the operation of the appliance.

Disposal

•When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.

•The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection.

For further information relating to the correct disposal of exhausted household appliances, owners may contact the relevant public service or their local dealer.

Respecting and conserving the environment

•You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, the “delayed cooking” mode (see Cooking modes) and “delayed automatic cleaning” mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise their time efficiently.

•Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL and FAN GRILLING modes: this will achieve improved results while saving energy (approximately 10%).

•Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding

the dispersal of heat.

! This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption in standby mode.

Care and maintenance

Switching the appliance off

GB

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

•Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven are due to the different materials used, i.e. glass, plastic or metal.

•Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven door glass are caused by reflections from the oven light.

•The enamel is branded at very high temperatures. This process may cause colour variations. This is normal and will not affect appliance operation in any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal cannot be entirely enamelled and may therefore appear to be unfinished. This will not affect the rust protection.

•The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances.

•The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

•All accessories - with the exception of the sliding racks - can be washed like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.

•We recommend that detergents are not sprayed directly onto the control panel, but that a sponge is used instead.

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

Cleaning the oven door

! The door of LED INSIDE models cannot be removed.

F

3. Grip the door on the two outer sides and close it approximately half way. Pull the door towards you, lifting it out of its slot (see diagram). To replace the door, reverse this sequence.

Inspecting the seals

Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.

Replacing the light bulb

To replace the oven light bulb:

1.Remove the glass cover of the lamp-holder.

2.Remove the

light bulb and replace it with a similar one: halogen lamp voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W, cap G 9.

3. Replace the glass cover (see diagram).

! Do not touch the light bulb directly with your hands.

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.

For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven door may be removed:

1.Open the oven door fully (see diagram).

2.Use a screwdriver to lift up and turn the small levers F located on the two hinges (see diagram).

Sliding rack kit assembly

A

To assemble the sliding racks:

1. Remove the two frames, lifting them away from the spacers A (see figure).

2. Choose which shelf to use with the sliding rack. Paying attention to the direction in which the sliding rack is to be extracted, position joint B and then joint C on the frame.

		3. Secure the two frames
		with the guide rails using
		the holes provided on
		the oven walls (see
		diagram). The holes for
		the left frame are
	D	situated at the top, while
		the holes for the right
		frame are at the bottom.
		4. Finally, fit the frames
		on the spacers A.
	! Do not place the sliding racks in position 5.

Side and rear catalytic liners*

These are panels coated with a special enamel, which is able to absorb the fat released by food as it cooks.

This enamel is quite strong, so that the various accessories (racks, dripping pans, etc.) can slide along them without damaging them. White marks may appear on the surfaces; these are not a cause for concern.

Nevertheless, the following should be avoided:

-scraping the enamel with sharp objects (a knife, for example);

-using detergents or abrasive materials.

* Only available in certain models.
