house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in
order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the
relevant warnings. These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read
them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
Installation
l Any installation work must be undertaken
by a qualified electrician or competent
person.
l Installation and initial adjustment of your
oven MUST be carried out by qualified
personnel in compliance with current
regulations. Specific installation
instructions for the installer are given in this
booklet.
During use
l This appliance has been designed for
cooking edible foodstuffs only, and must
not be used for any other purposes.
l It is dangerous to alter the specifications
or modify the product in any way.
l Appliances become very hot with use, and
retain their heat for a long period after use.
l Always ensure that the control knobs are
in the off position when not in use.
l For hygiene and safety reasons, this
appliance should be kept clean at all times.
A build-up of fats or foodstuffs could result
in a fire.
l Never line any part of the oven with
aluminium foil.
l Easy clean-liners (if provided) should never
be cleaned with any other than soapy water.
l Before any maintenance or cleaning work
is carried out on the appliance, always turn
off the isolator switch at the cooker point,
and allow to cool.
l During oven cooking and grilling, the
appliance door and the surrounding parts
are warmed up to a very high temperature.
Be careful and keep children away from
the appliance while you are using it. When
you connect other appliances to a plug near
the oven, check carefully that the wire does
not touch warm parts of the oven and does
not get taken in the oven door.
l Ensure that the shelves are put in place in
the correct way.
l This oven (even if it is linked to an electrical
cooking table) is made to function at 230 V
mono, double or three-phase with neutral.
l A polyphase linking without neutral (400 V)
can induce the distruction of the oven and
of the eventual cooking table.
Child safety
l This appliance is designed to be operated
by adults. Children should not be allowed

When the oven is first installed
Once the oven has been installed:
F
a) set the thermostat knob to (250) MAX;
b) allow the oven to run empty for
approximately 45 minutes;
c) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may
be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and
is caused by residues of manufacturing.
Repeat this operation for the grill and fan
cooking function.
Once this operation is carried out, let the
oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity
with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy
water.
Before cooking for the first time,
carefully wash the oven
accessories.

It enables to select the most appropriate
type of heating for the different cooking
requirements by appropriately connecting
the heating elements and adjusting
temperature to the required level.
Meaning of the symbols:
Oven lamp
50-250 Range of temperature regulation
for conventional cooking
Bottom heating element
Top heating element
To select the temperature turn the switch in
a clockwise direction and place sign in front
of the symbol corresponding to the
temperature required, included between 50
and 250°C.The temperature will be
maintained constant by the thermostat.
If a different type of heating is required, for
example more heat on the bottom or the top,
you should turn the switch to the symbols
(heat from below) or (heat from
above). In these conditions the temperature
will never exceed 250°C.

Control lights
Oven thermostat control light: This light
goes off when the oven heats up to the
temperature set and comes on again every
time the thermostat cuts in to stabilize
temperature.
Operating control light: It indicates that
one or more of the heating elements are
turned on.
Hotplate control knobs
The Control Knobs for the hotplates (Fig. 3)
can be found on the oven control panel. The
energy regulator of the hotplates can be set
by means of a 7-position control knob:
0 =Off
1 = Minimum
3 = Maximum
The intermediate positions give an increasing
heating power.
Carefully supervise cookings with oil
or fats, since these types of food can
result in a fire, when over-heated.

Safety thermostat
In order to avoid excessive overheating due
to incorrect use of the appliance or else to a
faulty component, the oven is equipped with
a safety thermostat which cuts off the power
supply if necessary. Operation is restored
automatically when the oven temperature
decreases to normal values. Therefore, if the
thermostat cuts in because you have not
been using the appliance correctly, the oven
can be used again simply by waiting for the
appliance to cool down. If, instead, the
thermostat cuts in because of a faulty
component, you should call the Service
Department.
Hints and tips for using the oven
Always cook with the oven door
closed.
Conventional cooking
Heat comes from the top and from the
bottom, therefore it is preferable to use the
central runners. If cooking requires more
heat from the top or from the bottom use
the top or the bottom runners.
Some hints
For baking cakes
Cakes require a moderate temperature
(normally between 150 and 200°C). In
addition, the oven must be heated up
beforehand - for about 10 minutes.
The oven door should not be opened before
at least 3/4 of the set cooking time is up.
Normal short pastry dough should be cooked
in a mould or tin for 2/3 of total cooking time
required and then garnished as desired
before being cooked completely.
Clearly, the remaining cooking time depends
on the type of garnish used (jam, fruit, etc.).
Care should be taken to ensure that any
dough and cake mixes are of the right
consistency since an unduly moist mix
lengthens cooking time unnecessarily. The
raw dough or mix should therefore be fairly
difficult to detach from the spoon or beater.
are short.Otherwise they should be added
during the last half hour. A simple way of
checking whether meat is done or not is to
press it with a spoon; if the meat does not
yield under this pressure it means that it is
done to a turn. In the case of roast beef and
fillet steaks, the inside of which should
remain fairly pink in color, cooking times
must be short. The meat can be cooked in
a baking pan or else directly on the shelf in this case a dripping pan must obviously
be placed underneath the shelf to collect
the juice. Once the meat is cooked, it is
advisable to let it rest for at least 15 minutes
before carving so that the juice does not seep
out. To prevent the formation of too much
smoke in the oven during roasting, it is a
good idea to pour a little water into the
dripping pan andto prevent steamto add
a little bit more during cooking if the original
amount dries up too much.
Before serving, the various courses can be
kept hot in the oven which should be turned
down to the minimum temperature.
Attention! - Do not place pans,
dripping pans, biscuit pans or
aluminium foil on the oven bottom.
This could cause a heat build-up
which would affect the baking results
and damage the oven enamel.
For cooking meat and fish
Meat cooked in the oven should weigh at
least 1 kg to prevent it from becoming too
dry during cooking. Very tender red meat to
be cooked rare, i.e. well cooked on the
outside but extremely juicy inside, requires
high-temperature cooking (200-250°C).
White meat, poultry and fish instead require
low-temperature cooking (150-175°C).
The ingredients for the accompanying sauce
or gravy should be put in the baking pan at
the very beginning only when cooking times
Cooking times
Cooking times vary according to the type of
food to be cooked, its consistency, and
volume.We suggest that you take particular
note of your first cooking experiments with
the oven, since operating in the same
conditions for the same dishes you will of
course obtain similar results.
Only experience will enable you to make
the appropriate changes to values given on
charts.
