Warnings - Built-in ovens
It is most important that the instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future
reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move
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
to tamper with the controls or play with the
product.
l Children should be supervised at all times

When the oven is first installed
Once the oven has been installed:
F
a) set the thermostat knob to MAX (250);
b) switch the oven function control knob to
conventional cooking ( );
c) allow the oven to run empty for
approximately 45 minutes;
d) 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.

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.
51
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. 4)
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.
Fan cooking
The food is cooked by means of preheated
air force blown evenly round the inside of
the oven by a fan set on the rear wall of the
oven itself.
Heat thus reaches all parts of the oven evenly
and fast and this means that you can
simultaneously cook different types of foods
positioned on the various oven shelves (fig.
5). Fan cooking ensures rapid elimination
of moisture and the dryer oven environment
stops the different aromas and flavours from
being transmitted from one food to another.
The possibility of cooking on several shelf
52
heights means that you can cook several
different dishes at the same time and up to
three tins of biscuits and mini pizzas to be
eaten immediately or subsequently deep
frozen.
Naturally the oven can also be used for
cooking on just one shelf. In this case you
should use the lowest set of runners so that
you can keep an eye on progress more
easily.
In addition, the oven is particularly
recommended for sterilizing preserves,
cooking home-made fruit in syrup, and for
drying mushrooms or fruit.

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.
If three shelves are filled with cakes and tarts
simultaneously, it is advisable to slot in an
extra shelf between the two lower shelves
(Fig. 5).
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
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.
Should you cook very fat food, place the
meat directly on the grill and the grill over
the dripping pan in order not to dirty the oven.
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.
