Repairs may become necessary over time;
these and all major servicing operations
must be performed exclusively by
technicians employed by the manufacturer
or an authorized service centre.

1.1 • Carefully read the directions given in this

manual; they contain important information on
safety during installation, operation and
maintenance.

Keep this manual in a safe place for future
consultation!

1.2 • This appliance must only be used as
specified in the design, i.e. cooking foods.

Any other type of use is improper and
therefore dangerous.

1.3 • Only suitably trained kitchen personnel should
be allowed to use the appliance.

1.4 • The oven must not be left unattended during
operation.

1.5 • There are surfaces of the oven that become
hot during operation. Take care!

1.6 • Ask the installer for information on correct
operation and use of the water softener;
incorrect or incomplete maintenance is at the
origin of the formation of scale, which would
badly damage the oven.

1.7 • Should it become necessary to call out a
service technician, all essential identification
details of the appliance are shown on the
data plate, located at the right-hand side on
the bottom.

1.8 • Each appliance is equipped with a data plate
identifying the model and its main
specifications. An example is given below of a
dataplate for an electric oven and one for a
gas oven.

1.9 • In the event of technical assistance being
required, the trouble must be described in
as much detail as possible, so that a
service technician will be able straight away
to understand the nature of the problem.

1.10 • In the event of breakdown or faulty operation,
switch off the oven immediately!

1.11 • The room, in which the oven is to operate,
must be well ventilated!

1.12 • Safety sticker

2.1 • Before any food is cooked in a new oven,
the interior must be thoroughly cleaned
(see “Daily Cleaning”).

2.2 • At the end of the working day, clean the
oven thoroughly inside and out; this will
ensure smooth operation of the appliance
and prolong its useful life.

2.3 • Do not use high pressure water jets
when cleaning the oven!

2.4 • For daily cleaning, use only alkali based
products suitable for the purpose.

Abrasive materials and products should not
be used as they will damage the surfaces.

2.5 • Always switch off the appliance when work
is finished, and shut off all energy supplies
(electricity, water, and gas if connected).

2.6 • Avoid any operation that might cause
cooking salt to be deposited on the steel
surfaces of the oven; if salt is accidentally
spilled, rinse off immediately and
thoroughly.

2.7 • After steam cooking, open the door
carefully to avoid being hit by the rush of

residual steam escaping from the oven.
Failure to observe this warning may be
dangerous for the operator.

2.8 • To ensure safe operation of the oven do
not obstruct the vents or any other
opening in the casing!

Failure to observe basic safety
guidelines may jeopardize the smooth
operation of the oven and expose the
operator to serious danger!
The manufacturer accepts no liability if
the original function of the oven is
altered or there is tampering or failure
to observe the instructions given in the
manuals.

2 • POINTS TO REMEMBER

2.9 • To ensure long term efficiency and
reliability of the oven, scheduled
servicing should be carried out at
least once a year. With this in mind,
customers are recommended to sign a
service agreement.

This function is activated only with the oven
door open. Pressing the key activates the
fan, which rapidly lowers the temperature
in the oven to 50 °C. This function is
particularly useful if one cooking operation
at high temperature is to be followed by
another using a much lower temperature,
or when the oven needs cleaning
immediately after a cooking operation (see
“Daily Cleaning”).

3.4•AUTOMATIC HUMIDITY CONTROL
KEY (KEY 14)

This key also performs the function of a
manual humidifier when pressed with
cooking in progress (key light on).
This function is useful for foods that require
added humidity when cooking. Press the
key and hold for as long as it is wished to
let moisture into the oven, the
corresponding LED will light up for as long
as the key is pressed.

3.5•DELETING A PROGRAM

To delete the content of a cooking program
that has been saved, proceed as follows:
display the program to delete (e.g. 09),
press and hold keys 21 and 22 for 5 sec.
and its content is automatically deleted.

Note: The appliance is fitted with an
automatic system for reducing the cavity
temperature in all cooking modes. If the
temperature exceeds the display setting
by 30°C, the humidifier automatically
directs cold water into the oven and the
temperature is rapidly lowered. This
precludes the possibility that food could
start cooking with too high a temperature
in the oven. In addition, the added
moisture prevents foods from drying up.
