opening the oven door during cooking or at
the end of it to allow any build up of steam
or heat to release.

z It is dangerous to alter the specifications

or modify the product in any way.

z Appliances become very hot with use, and

retain their heat for a long period after use.
Care should be taken to avoid touching
heating elements inside the oven.

z Always ensure that the control knobs are

in the “off” position when not in use.

z For hygiene and safety reasons, this

appliance should be kept clean at all times.

the correct way.

z 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.

z A polyphase linking without neutral (400 V)

can induce the distruction of the oven and

Hints and Tips

When the oven is first installed

The oven will work only if the time
of day has been set (please read
the relevant instructions).

Once the oven has been installed:

)

a) set the thermostat knob to “MAX”;
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.

To open the oven door, always
catch the handle in its central
part.

Push-Pull control knobs

Some models are provided with push-pull
control knobs (Fig. 1). These knobs can
be completely sunken inside the control
panel when the oven is not working.

Oven Function (Fig. 2) and
Thermostat (Fig. 3) control
knobs

They enable 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.

Oven Light - The oven light will be on
without any cooking function
Conventional cooking - The heat
comes from both the top and bottom

element, ensuring even heating
inside the oven.

Top heating element - The heat
comes from the top of the oven only.

Bottom heating element - The heat
comes from the bottom of the oven

only.
Inner grill element only - can be used
for grilling small quantities.
Double Grill - The full grill element
will be on.
Thermal Grilling - This function offers
an alternative method of cooking

food items, normally associated with
conventional grilling. The grill element
and the oven fan operate together,
circulating hot air around the food.

When using this function, select a
maximum temperature of 200°C.

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.

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.

The 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.

The cooling fan for the
controls

This oven is provided with a cooling fan,
meant to keep the front panel, the knobs
and the oven door handle cool. This fan may
run on after the oven or grill is switched off,
until a normal temperature is reached.

Hints and tips for using the oven

Always cook with the oven door
closed.

The oven is supplied with an exclusive system
which produces a natural circulation of air
and the constant recycling of steam.
This system makes it possible to cook in a
steamy environment and keep the dishes soft
inside and crusty outside. Moreover, the
cooking time and energy consumption are
reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam
may be produced which can be released when
opening the oven door. This is absolutely
normal.

However, always stand back from the
oven when opening the oven door during
cooking or at the end of it to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.

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
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.

Grilling

When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil
on them and always place them on the oven
grid. The shelf level depends on the
thinckness of the food.
Always place the dripping pan at the lowest
level, with some water in it, to avoid smoke
and unpleasant smells.

Thermal grilling

When using this function, select a
maximum temperature of 200°C.

The full grill element and the oven fan operate
alternately, circulating hot air around the
food. The need to check and turn food is
reduced. With the exception of toast and
rare steaks, you can thermal grill all the
foods you would normally cook under a
conventional grill.
