how to use the self cleaning oven

GENERAL FEATURES

The oven has special operating features.

Five different functions can be used to satisfy all cooking needs; it also has a self clean- ing function which can clean the oven cavity at high temperature, a defrost function and an oven light function.

These functions are managed by an electronic programmer which keeps the tempera- ture set constant by means of a probe inside the oven cavity.

The ovens have the following heating elements:

- Lower heating element (double) 500 + 1300 W

- Upper heating element

1000 W

- Grill heating element

2000 W

- Circular heating element

2200 W

USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

-Put in the shelf and the tray.

-Switch the oven on empty (on a cooking function – NOT SELF CLEANING) at maximum power for about 2 hours to remove traces of grease and smells from the components.

-When the oven has cooled down and unplugging the range, clean the inside of the oven with a cloth soaked in water and neutral detergent and dry it perfectly.

WARNING:

The door is hot, use the handle.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the multifunction self cleaning oven takes place as follows:

by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.

by forced convection

The heat produced by the circular element is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

by radiation

The heat is radiated by the infra red broil element.

by radiation and fan

The radiated heat from the infra red broil element is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

by double radiation and fan

The fan distributes the heat radiated by the broil heating element and the upper heat- ing element in the oven.

by ventilation

The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.

by self cleaning

The heat produced by the heating elements cleans the internal oven cavity removing all residue of grease.

THIS IS NOT A COOKING FUNCTION

NOTES ON OVEN WORKING

A cooling fan starts automatically when selecting a cooking or self cleaning mode. It stops when turning the selector knob to OFF or light or defrosting position and th inside oven cavity temperature drops below 100 °C (212 °F).

The purpose of this fan is to reduce the temperature inside/outside the appliance.

Note: The first time the oven is used or after a black-out the programmer must be start- ed by pressing keys 2 and 3 simultaneously. See the chapter on the use of the electronic programmer.

Attention: the oven door becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children away.

VERY IMPORTANT

The oven shall be used always with the door closed.

NEVER USE THE RANGE WHEN THE OVEN IS OPERATING IN SELF CLEANING MODE.

WHEN THE SELF CLEANING MODE HAS BEEN COMPLETED:

do not start immediately a new self cleaning cycle: LET THE RANGE TO COOL DOWN.
