3. DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
All oven knobs and controls are located on the side panels.
This permits selection of the ideal cooking temperature. Rotate clockwise to the desired temperature (50° to 250°C). Adjustment is progressive so that the oven also operates at any intermediate value.
When on, indicates that oven is heating up. When the set temperature is reached, the light goes off. During the cooking cycle, the light comes on and goes off various times signalling that the temperature in the oven is being kept constant as per the set value.
When off, indicates that timed cooking is in progress. When on, indicates that the timed cooking cycle has been completed.
This permits to select manual or timer-controlled cooking with automatic turning off of the oven at end of the cooking cycle.
To set to manual, turn the knob anticlockwise to . To set cooking time, turn the knob clockwise. Time is expressed in minutes (5 to 60). Adjustment is progressive so that time can also be set to any intermediate value. Upon completion of the cooking cycle, the knob automatically returns to 0, the oven turns off and a buzzer signal is set off, which switches off automatically after 20 seconds.

4. USE OF THE OVEN
4.1 Warnings and general advice
When using for the first time, it is advisable to heat up the oven to its maximum temperature (250°C) for enough time to burn off any possible oily manufacturing residues. It should be borne in mind that when the oven door is opened, the heating elements and the fan are automatically switched off. This means that, if the food being cooked needs to be checked, it is best to leave the door open for as short a time as possible in order to avoid the temperature inside the oven from dropping too much and thus compromising cooking results.
Moving air at ambient temperature causes frozen food to quickly thaw.
4.2 Oven lights
The lights inside the oven come on automatically upon turning the thermostat knob.
4.3 Defrosting
TIMER KNOB SET TO MANUAL
THERMOSTAT KNOB SET TO VENTILATION
This type of thawing is ideal as the taste and appearance of the de­frozen food, whether previously deep-frozen or frozen in the domestic freezer, remain unaltered.
4.4 Pre-heating
Before cooking, it is advisable to pre-heat the oven to the desired temperature for at least 15 minutes.

5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Important:
never spray water directly on to the oven. Never use pressure nozzles.
Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the oven.
5.1 Cleaning stainless steel parts
To maintain stainless steel parts in perfect condition, clean regularly at the end of the work day. Allow to cool first.
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface. Use normal non-abrasive products for steel, and a wooden or plastic tool if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.

Instructions for the user
5.2 Cleaning the inside of the oven
To maintain the oven in perfect condition, clean it regularly at the end of the work day. Allow to cool first. Take off all removable parts. Remove the side guides by lifting them up from the front; slide them out of the rear hole and take off.
Clean oven grill and side guides with warm water and non-abrasive detergents. Rinse and dry.
5.3 Door glass
The door glass should always be kept clean. Use absorbent kitchen paper to clean. In case of tough spots, clean with a damp sponge using regular detergent.

Instructions for the user
6. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
The oven may require extraordinary maintenance or replacement of parts subject to wear such as seals, bulbs, and so on. The following instructions describe how to carry out these minor maintenance operations.
Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the oven.
6.1 Replacing the light bulb
Remove protection cover A using a screwdriver to pry open. Replace bulb B with a similar one. Remount protection cover A.
28
Use only oven light bulbs (suitable for a temperature of up to 300°C).
6.2 Removing the door
Catch the door at the two sides with both hands in proximity to hinges C and lift up the small levers D. Lift the door upwards at an angle of about 45° and slide out. To remount, insert hinges C into the appropriate grooves, allow the door to rest downwards and release the small levers D.
6.3 Oven door seal
To permit thorough cleaning of the oven, the seal may be removed. Before removing the seal, take off the door as described above. Once the door has been taken off, lift the tabs at the corners as shown in the figure.

7. ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR STEAM OVENS
7.1 General instructions
The hardness of the water used in the oven water reservoir for steaming must not exceed 10-11°F. Use natural mineral water, or tap water that
has been treated with a water purification or softening system.
Connect the water inlet connection on the rear to a water supply outlet having ¾ gas threaded connection, taking care to screw tightly to the hose. If the water supply pipe is new or has been unused for a long time, before making the connection turn the water on and allow it to flow out to ensure that it is clear and free from impurities. Otherwise, the water inlet may become fouled, damaging the oven.
The oven must be supplied with water at a pressure between min. 50 kPa and max. 500 kPa.

7.2 Description of the controls
All oven knobs and controls are located on the side panels.
TIMER KNOB
This knob serves for selecting manual oven use or the minute minder with automatic oven switch-off at the end of cooking. For manual control of the cooking time, turn the knob to the
symbol . To set the cooking time, turn the knob clockwise. The numbers 5 to 60 correspond to minutes. The regulation of the time is progressive and all of the positions between the figures indicated can be used as settings. At the end of the cooking time, the knob automatically returns to the 0 position, the oven switches off and an acoustic device sounds.
THERMOSTAT KNOB
This knob serves for selecting the oven temperature most suited to the foods to be cooked. Selection is made by turning the knob clockwise to the desired setting. The regulation of the temperature is progressive and thus all of the positions between the figures can be utilised as settings.
GREEN INDICATOR LIGHT
When this light goes out it signals the beginning of the cooking time. When it comes on it signals the end of the cooking time.
ORANGE INDICATOR LIGHT
This light indicates that the oven is in the heating phase. It switches off when the temperature set by the thermostat knob has been reached inside the oven. During oven use, the switching on and off of this light indicates that the oven temperature is being kept constant.
STEAM EROGATION BUTTON
This serves for selecting the amount of steam most suited to the foods to be cooked. Steam continues to be supplied until the button is released; once released the button automatically returns to the 0 setting. N.B.: The oven thermostat knob must be set between 150° and 250°C for steaming.

7.3 Use of the oven
To prevent any problems that could be caused from the steam in the oven, open the door in two stages: keep the door ajar (about 5-6 cm) for 4-5 seconds and then open it fully. N.B. The fan, oven elements and steam supply are all disconnected automatically when the door is opened.
7.3.1 Steaming foods
STEAM DISTRIBUTION KNOB
THERMOSTAT KNOB
TIMER KNOB
No steam is created at temperatures lower than 150°C: temperatures
below 150°C give rise to condensation and consequent dripping. Therefore, turn the thermostat knob to 150°C and wait until the (orange) thermostat indicator light switches off before opening the steam supply.
