Start-up and use

￿ The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty

GB	oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature
	for at least half an hour. Make sure that the room is
	well ventilated before switching the oven off and
	opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a
	slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
	substances used during the manufacturing process
	burning away.
	￿ Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven;
	this will prevent the enamel coating from being
	damaged.
	￿ Always place cookware on the racks provided.
	￿ During use, we suggest removing any crockery or
	delicate foodstuffs from the recesses not in function.
	￿ We suggest not opening the door when cooking
	foodstuffs which require leavening, so as to not
	compromise cooking results.
	￿ If the door is subject to repeated jerking, the divider
	may come out of its housing. If this happens, the time
	will appear on the display. Make sure that the divider
	is correctly installed then re-start cooking.
	Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel and the oven door.

￿Once cooking is completed, the cooling fan activates and deactivates automatically until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Setting the clock

￿This may only be set while the oven is switched off. 1. Press thebutton until the first numerical digit

flashes on the display and the ,	and	icons
are switched off.

2.Turn the TIMER KNOB towards “+” and “-” to adjust the hour value.

3.Press thebutton again so that the other two numerical digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.

4.Turn the TIMER KNOB towards “+” and “-” to adjust the minute value.

5.Press thebutton again to confirm.

Setting the timer

￿This function does not interrupt cooking and does not affect the oven; it is simply used to activate the buzzer when the set amount of time has elapsed.

1.	Press the	button until the	icon and the three
digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.
2.	Turn the TIMER KNOB towards		“+” and “-” to

adjust the minute value.

3. Press thebutton again to confirm.

The display will then show the time as it counts down. When this period of time has elapsed the buzzer will be activated.

ExtraLarge Space

Starting the oven

1. Select the desired cooking function by turning the

EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob. If the icon on the display is lit, this indicates that the ExtraLarge Space has been selected and therefore that only the settings corresponding to the ExtraLarge Space may be used.

2.The oven will begin its preheating stage. The temperature may be changed by turning the

TEMPERATURE knob. The indicator light flashes during the pre-heating stage.

3.Once the pre-heating stage is completed, the icon stops flashing (becomes fixed) and a buzzer sounds. It is now possible to introduce foodstuffs into the oven.

4.During cooking it is always possible to:

-Change the cooking function by turning the EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob.

-Adjust the temperature using the TEMPERATURE knob (for the universal cooking functions only).

-Set a duration (for universal cooking functions only) and the cooking end time.

-Stop cooking by turning the EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob to the “0” position.

5. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking function from the point at which it was interrupted, as long as the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.

￿When using the oven in its ExtraLarge configuration, it will not be possible to use the Main and Small Space features: the SMALL SPACE and MAIN SPACE FUNCTION knobs will be disabled.

Universal cooking functions

￿All functions have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 40°C and 250°C as desired.

For the BARBECUE function, the default power level value is indicated as a percentage (%) and may also be adjusted manually.
