Baking Elements

The oven uses two elements for baking: one located at the top of the oven and the second located below the floor of the oven cavity to provide ease in cleaning the oven cavity.

Grilling Element

The grilling element of the oven is located at the top of the oven cavity. Do not touch the heating element or let oven gloves touch the grilling element. Never use a towel or bulky cloth for an oven glove; they could catch on fire.

Convection Element

The convection elements (not visible) and fans are located at the back of the oven cavity. This element and fan combination performs the cooking when in the convection bake mode. When in any of the convection modes the fan is on, see 1.

About Convection Ovens

In a conventional oven, the heat sources cycle on and off to maintain an average temperature in the oven cavity. As the temperature gradually rises and falls, gentle air currents are produced within the oven. This natural convection tends to be inefficient because the currents are irregular and slow. In this convection system, the heat is “conveyed” by a fan that provides continuous circulation of the hot air. This European Convection system provides state-of-the-art engineering and advanced design to create the finest convection oven. In standard convection ovens, a fan simply circulates the hot air around the food. The system is characterized by the combination of an additional heating element located around the convection fan and the venting panel that distributes heated air in three dimensions: along the sides, the top and the full depth of the oven cavity. This European Convection system aids in maintaining a more even oven temperature throughout the oven cavity. The circulating air aids in speeding up the baking process and cooks the food more evenly. By controlling the movement of heated air, convection cooking produces evenly browned foods that are crispy on the outside yet moist inside. Convection cooking works best for breads and pastries as well as meats and poultry. Air-

leavened foods like angel food cakes, soufflés and cream puffs rise higher than in a conventional oven. Meats stay juicy and tender while the outside is flavorful and crisp. By using European Convection, foods can be cooked at a lower temperature and cooking times can be shorter. When using this mode, the standard oven temperature should be lowered by 25°F (15°C). Foods requiring less cooking time should be checked slightly earlier than normal. For best results, foods should be cooked uncovered, in low-sided pans to take advantage of the forced air circulation. When using the Convection Roast mode, the standard oven temperature does not need to be reduced.

About Your Oven

Above you will find an illustration of an oven showing the components of the oven.

Cooling Fan

The oven has a cooling fan to cool the control panel. You may hear this fan continue to run after cooking and/or cleaning has been completed. The fan will run as long as the oven is hot and the oven’s function selector is turned to any position other than “Off”. This is normal operation.

Rack Positions

The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the illustration. Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the sidewalls on each side of the oven cavity. The rack should be positioned within the paired supports. Always be sure to position the oven racks, etc. before turning the oven on. Make sure that the rack(s) are level once they are in position.

General Oven Tips

Preheating the Oven

• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and Convection Roast modes.

• Use BOOST mode when a short time is necessary to preheat the oven.

• Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.

• Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

• Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.

• Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.

• During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is always displayed.

• A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the “PREHEAT” writing will turn off.

Operational Suggestions

• Use the cooking charts as a guide.

• Do not set pans on the open oven door.

• Use the interior oven lights to view the food

through the oven door window rather than opening the door frequently.

Utensils

• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25 °F (15 °C) when baking in glass.

• Use pans that give the desired browning. The type of finish on the pan will help determine the amount of browning that will occur.

• Shiny, smooth metal or light non-stick / anodized pans reflect heat, resulting in lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of utensil.

• Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

• For brown, crisp crusts, use dark non-stick / anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bake ware. Insulated baking pans may increase the length of cooking time.

• Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven, as this could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside of the oven.

Oven Condensation and Temperature

• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

• Your new oven has an electronic temperature sensor that allows maintaining the selected temperature accurately. Your previous oven may have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted gradually over time to a higher temperature. It is normal that you may need to adjust your favorite recipes when cooking in a new oven.

High Altitude Baking

• When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time will vary from the standard.

Oven Racks

• The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the illustration on Page 6.

• Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rack guide (#1) to the top (#6).·

• Check cooking charts for best rack positions to use when cooking.

• Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the walls on each side of the oven cavity.

• Always be sure to position the oven racks before turning on the oven. Make sure that the racks are level once they are in position.

Please refer to illustration on Page 6 if there is any question as to which side is the front of the rack.

• The racks are designed to stop when pulled forward to their limit.

CAUTION

Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line the oven. It can cause damage to the oven liner if heat is trapped under the foil.

Make sure you do not force it to avoid damage to the enamel.

General Oven Information

Before using your oven for the first time remove all packing and foreign materials from the oven(s). Any material of this sort left inside may melt or burn when the appliance is used.

Flashing Symbols or Numbers

Signals an incomplete action that is in progress (locking the door, preheat, etc.) or an incomplete setting that calls for another input.

Beeps

Signals that more information must be entered or confirms the receipt of an entry. Beeps also signal the end of a function or an oven fault.

Locking the door

It’s displayed steadily when the door is locked. The symbol flashes when the latch is moving in order to lock or unlock the door. Do not attempt to open the door at this time. Door can be opened when the symbol no longer appears. “AUTO LOCK” appears when the door has been locked automatically due to self-clean mode. “USER LOCK” is displayed when the door has been locked manually by the user, for example to prevent children from having free access to the oven cavity. Hold both the [INC] and [DEC] keys for 3 seconds. The latch will lock the door. Repeat the same operation to unlock.

Locking the keyboard

Hold both the keys indicated by “KEYBD. LOCK” legend for 3 seconds. Commands are now locked and “SENS LOCK” will be displayed every time you touch any keys. Repeat the same operation for 3 seconds to unlock the keyboard.

Power Failure

After the power returns to the oven, the clock displays the time 12.00

Default Settings

The cooking modes automatically select a suitable temperature when the selector is in the preset position. These can be changed when a different one is needed. It’s also possible to set a user option in order to save the last used temperature per every cooking mode.

F Failure Number Codes

These codes are displayed when the electronic control detects a problem in the oven or in the electronics.

Use & Installation Manual

Convection Fan

The convection fan operates during any convection mode. When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The convection fan always runs during the preheat time.

Component Cooling Fan

Activates during any cooking or self-cleaning mode to cool inner components and outer door surfaces. This air is exhausted through the vent located above the oven door. It continues to run until components have cooled sufficiently. The cooling fan speed is high in self-clean and whenever the internal components temperature becomes high.

Preheat and Boost

Whenever a cooking mode is set and the oven is heating, the “PREHEAT” writing appears in the temperature display: the vertical bar indicates, in four steps, when the oven reaches the 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of the set-point temperature.

As soon as the 100% is reached, the control sounds an “end of preheat” tone and the “PREHEAT” writing disappears. When it’s necessary to heat up the oven rapidly, a Boost mode is available: it uses the heating elements and the convection fan in a special way, in order to reduce the heating time as long as possible. After having set one of the cooking functions for which the fast preheat is available, touch the [BOOST] key, the “FAST” addition to the “PREHEAT” one.

As soon as the set-point temperature is reached, the control sounds an “end of preheat” tone and both “FAST” and “PREHEAT” writings disappear. The oven switches automatically to the desired cooking mode that was previously set: put the food inside now.
