Environmental information

Our product's packing is made of
non-polluting materials, which are
therefore compatible with the
environment and recyclable.
Please help by disposing of the
packaging correctly. You can
obtain the addresses of collection,
recycling and disposal centres
from your retailer or from the
competent local organisations.

Warning! Do not discard the
packaging or any part of it, or
leave it unattended. It can
constitute a suffocation hazard
for children, especially the plastic
bags.

Your old appliance also needs to be disposed
of correctly.
Important: hand over your appliance to the
local agency authorised for the collection of
electrical appliances no longer in use.
Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery
of valuable materials.
Before disposing of your appliance it is
important to remove doors and leave
shelves in the same position as for use, to
ensure that children cannot accidentally
become trapped inside during play. It is also
necessary to cut the connecting cable to the
power grid, removing it along with the plug.

Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/
EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC
relating to the reduction of the
use of hazardous substances in
electrical and electronic
appliances, as well as to the
disposal of refuse, the crossed out
bin symbol on the appliance
indicates that at the end of the
useful life of the product, it must
be collected separately from
other refuse. Therefore, at the
end of the product's working life,
the user must deliver it to the
appropriate differentiated
collection centres for electrical
and electronic waste, or deliver it
back to the retailer when
purchasing an equivalent product,
on a one-for-one basis. Adequate
differentiated collection for the
subsequent forwarding of the
decommissioned product to
recycling, processing and
ecologically compatible disposal
contributes to avoiding possible
negative effects on the
environment and on health, and
promotes recycling of the
appliance's constituent materials.
Illicit disposal of the product by
the user will lead to the
application of administrative
sanctions.

Using your appliance

Before the first use

• Remove all packaging and accessories
from inside the ovens.

• The inside of the appliance should be
cleaned to remove all manufacturing
residues.

• Using the oven for the first time, heat
them to the maximum temperature for as
long as it takes to burn off any production
oil residues which could give a nasty
flavour to the food.

Use of the Ovens

Warning! To prevent problems

caused by steam in the oven, open
the door in two stages: half open
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds
and then fully open.

Keep your face and head away
from the door when opening.

Caution! Never cook on the
oven base. Always place dishes
and trays onto an oven shelf.

Do not leave the grill pan or
other dishes on the oven base as
damage to the oven may occur.

Before using the oven make sure

that the symbol ; appears on

the display.

The appliance is equipped with a
cooling system which comes into
operation as soon as a cooking
function starts (only for the main
oven).
Fans cause a steady outflow of air
from above the door which may
continue for a brief period of time
even after the oven has been
turned off.

To use the main oven:

Caution! During cooking, do not

cover the bottom of the oven
with aluminium or tin foil and do
not place pans or oven trays on it
as this may damage the enamel
coating. If you wish to use
greaseproof paper, place it so that
it will not interfere with the hot
air circulation inside the oven.

1 Turn the function selecor knob clockwise

to the desired function.

2 Turn the temperature selector knob

clockwise to the desired temperature.

The orange light comes on to indicate that
the oven is warming up. When it goes out
it means that the required temperature
has been reached.

Intermittent going on and off of the light
means that the oven temperature is being
constantly maintained at the programmed
level.

3 To turn the oven off, turn the function

slector and temperature knobs,
anticlockwise back to “0”.

To use the auxiliary oven:

Oven functions

When using any of the functions
in the main or auxiliary oven
(except grilling) it is always
recommended that you pre-heat
the oven.

Static (main - auxiliary)

As the heat comes from above and below at
the same time, this system is particularly
suitable for certain types of food.
Traditional cooking, also known as static or
thermal radiation cooking, is suitable for
cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all
types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any
case particularly suitable for fatty meats such
as goose and duck.

1 Turn the function selector knob clockwise

to the desired function.

2 The temperature can be selected only for

the static function.

9

Grill (main - auxiliary)

Bottom (main - auxiliary)

The heat coming from the grill element gives
perfect grilling results, especially for thin and
medium thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (when present), it allows
the food to be browned evenly at the end of
cooking.
Perfect for sausages, ribs and bacon.
This function enables large quantities of
food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly.

Small grill (auxiliary)

Using only the heat released from the
central element, this function enables small
portions of meat and fish to be grilled for
making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and all
types of grilled vegetable side dishes.

Fan-assisted grill (main)

The air produced by the fan softens the
strong heatwave generated by the grill, giving
perfect grilling even with very thick foods.
Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g. shin of
pork).

The heat coming solely from the bottom
makes it possible to complete the cooking of
foods that require a greater basic
temperature, without affecting their
browning. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and
pizzas.

Circular (main)

The combination of the fan and the circular
element (incorporated in the rear of the
oven) enables different foods to be cooked
on several levels, as long as they need the
same temperature and cooking time. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and uniform
distribution of heat. It will be possible, for
instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels) without
mixing smells and flavours.

Fan-assisted bottom
(main)

The combination of the fan with just the
lower heating element allows cooking to be
completed more rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for finishing
off the cooking of foods which are already
well-cooked on the surface, but not inside,
which therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.

Using the grill

Warning! Keep the oven door

closed during grilling.

Warning! During and after use
of the grill the accessible parts can
be very hot; it is therefore
necessary to keep children away
from the appliance.

Storage compartment

Caution! The duration of

cooking should not last more than
30 minutes.

Once the grill is lit leave the oven to heat up
for five minutes before placing the food
inside.
Food should be flavoured and basted with oil
or melted butter before cooking. An oven
dish should be used to contain the sauces.
The food should be placed on the oven shelf
which is positioned on one of the guides
supplied with the different ovens, following
the instructions below:

Food Grille on the shelf

Flat or thin meat 4

Rolled roast joints 3 - 4

Poultry 4

A storage compartment, accessible by
pulling on the top edge of the door, is
located beneath the ovens.
Never store flammable materials such as
rags, paper or the like. The compartment is
intended only for holding the metal
accessories of the range.

Warning! Never open the
storage compartment when the
oven is on and still hot. The
temperature inside may be
very high.
