2 INSTALLATION

2.1 Electrical connection

Check that mains voltage and power cable ratings are as per the

indications provided on the label attached to the oven door frame. This label must never be removed.

It is obligatory for the electrical system to be grounded according to the

methods required by safety rules.

If a plug and socket connection is being used make sure that the plug

and socket are compatible. Avoid use of adapters and shunts as thes e could cause overheating and risk of burns.

If a fixed connection is being used fit power li ne with an omn ipol ar circuit

breaker with a contact opening gap equal to or greater than 3 mm in an easily accessible position in proximity to the oven.

Remove rear cover by loosening relevant screws to gain access to the

terminal strip. Secure power cable to oven by means of th e appropriate fitting.

If the power cable is replaced, the wire section on the new cable must not be less than 1.5 mm2(3 x 1.5 cable), keeping in mind that the end to be connected to the hob must have the ground wire (yellow-green) longer by at least 20 mm.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or things caused by non-observance of the above prescriptions or by interference with any part of the appliance.

heat-resistant. Proceed according to the dimensions shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3. For installing under a work top, follow the dimens ions given in

Figure 1-3. For installing under a work top with combined heating plates , ensure a minimum clearance from any side walls of at least 110 mm as shown in Figure 1. For installing in a column, follow the dimensions given in Figure 1-2 allowing for a clearance of 80 to 90 mm at the top and sides of the column. Tighten the four screws A inside the frame to secure (Fig. 1). For installing beneath a non-integrated top, allow for a rear and bottom clearance as shown in Figure 1 (ref. B).

“3.2.2 Manual cooking” have been carried out.

4.1 Warnings and general advice

temperature (250°C) long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad taste.

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.

To prevent any steam in the oven creatin

problems, open the door in two stages: half ope (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open. To access food, always leave the door open as short a time as possible to prevent th temperature in the oven from falling and ruinin the food.

The oven is equipped with a cooling system

the inside oven light may be turned on by simultaneously rotating the

4.2 Cooling system

which automatically comes on upon the oven being turned on. 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.

6 COOKING HINTS

In fan-assisted mode preheating should be carried out at 30/40°C

above the cooking temperature. This considerably shortens cooking times and reduces power consumption, as well as giving better cooking results.

Keep the oven door closed during cooking

6.1 Traditional cooking

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SWITCH 50 ÷ 250° C

This traditional cooking method, in which heat comes from abov e and below, is suitable for cooking food on a single level. You have to preheat the oven until the set temperature is reached. Place the food in the oven only after the thermostat indicator light has turned off. very fatty meats may be put in when the oven is still cold. Put frozen meat in immediately, without waiting for it to thaw. The only precaution you need to take is to set the temperature about 20°C lower and cooking time about 1/4 longer than you would for fresh meat.

6.2 Hot-air cooking

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SWITCH 50 ÷ 250° C

This system is suitable for cooking on several levels, including different types of food (fish, meat etc.), without the tastes and smells mingling. Air circulation in the oven ensures a uniform distribution of heat.

Instructions for the user

Multiple cooking is possi ble as long as the cooking temperature of th

ifferent foods is the same.

Page 12

6.3 Grill cooking

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SWITCH

Permits rapid browning of foods. You are ad vised to place the pa n in t h e

highest guide. For short-term cooking of small quantities, place the grid in the fourth guide from the bottom. For long-term cooking and grills, put the grid in the lowest guide in accordance with the size of the pieces. While cooking a great deal of heat will come out: keep children away

from the oven. Keep the oven door closed during cooking.

6.4 Hot-air grilling

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SWITCH 200

Ensures uniform heat distribution with greater heat penetration into the

food. Food will be lightly browned on the outside and remain soft inside.

Keep the oven door closed during cooking. Heating up time must not exceed 60 minutes.

6.5 Defrosting

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SWITCH IN POSITION

The flow of air produced by the fan ensures quicker defrosting.

The air circulating inside the oven is at room temperature.

Instructions for the user

The advantage of defrosting at room temperature is that it does not alter

the taste and appearance of the food.
