Residual heat indicators
GB The appliance is fitted with a residual heat indicator. When the oven is off, the “residual heat” light on the display comes on to indicate high temperatures inside the oven cavity. The indicator light switches off when the inside of the oven has cooled down.
Concealed handle
Some models have a concealed handle built into the oven door. Simply press lightly and the push/push opening will improve your grip when opening and closing the oven. When you have finished using it, close it again by applying light pressure.
Restoring the factory settings
The oven factory settings can be restored to reset all selections made by the user (clock and customised durations). To carry out a reset, switch off the oven, then press and hold the icon corresponding to the first manual
cooking mode (top left) and the icon simultaneously for 6 seconds. Once the restore procedure is complete, a
buzzer will sound. The first time the icon is pressed, the oven will behave as if it is being switched on for the first time.
Standby
This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption in standby mode. If no icons are pressed for 30 minutes and the control panel/door lock has not been activated, the appliance automatically reverts to standby mode. The standby mode is visualised by the high luminosity “Clock Icon”. As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, system operation is restored.
Cooking modes
!To guarantee perfectly soft or crispy food, the oven releases water contained within the food in the form of steam. This means it is possible to achieve optimal cooking results for all dishes.
!Every time the oven is switched on, it suggests the first
CREATION cooking mode.
!Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged.
!Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Starting the oven
1.Switch the control panel on by pressing the icon. The appliance buzzer sounds three times (ascending) and all buttons light up in sequence.
2.Press the icon corresponding to the desired cooking mode. The TEMPERATURE display shows:
- the temperature associated with the mode, if programming manually;
- “Auto”, if programming is automatic. The TIME display shows:
- the current time, if programming manually; - the duration, if programming is automatic.
3.Press the icon to begin cooking.
4.The oven will begin its preheating stage: the preheating light flashes.
5.When the preheating process has finished, a buzzer sounds and the preheating indicator light shows that this stage has been completed: the food can then be placed in the oven.
6.During cooking it is always possible to:
-modify the temperature by pressing the icon, followed by the “” and “ ” icons (manual modes only);
-set the duration of a cooking mode (see Cooking Modes);
-press the icon to stop cooking. In this case the appliance stores the temperature modified previously in its memory (manual modes only);
-switch off the oven by pressing the icon for 3 seconds. 7. In case of a blackout, if the oven was already operating, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from where it was interrupted as long as the temperature did not drop below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not yet started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed (for example: a cooking mode has been programmed to start at 20:30. At 19:30 a blackout occurs. When the power supply is restored, the mode will have to be reprogrammed).
!There is no preheating stage for the BARBECUE mode.
CREATION cooking modes
!All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C and 250°C as desired (300°C for GRILL mode). CREATION cooking modes include all manual programmes.
The oven controls all essential aspects of each of these cooking modes and makes it easier for you to create the perfect dish, from the simplest recipe to the most sophisticated culinary delights: the temperature, heat source, humidity and fan assisted operation are all controlled automatically.
