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, as well as towards the bottom of the oven door.

!Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

Oven light

The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when a cooking mode starts.

The

button can be used to switch on the light at any time.

Residual heat indicators

The appliance is fitted with a residual heat indicator. When the oven is off, the “residual heat” bar on the display lights up to indicate high temperatures inside the oven cavity. The individual segments of the bar switch off one by one as the temperature inside the oven falls.

Demo mode

The oven can operate in the DEMO mode: all heating elements are deactivated, and the controls remain operative.

To activate DEMO mode, press and release button

,

then buttons and

 

simultaneously for 6 seconds, and

 

then press and release button . A buzzer sounds and the TEMPERATURE display shows “dEon”.

To deactivate DEMO mode, when the oven is off press and

hold button

and button simultaneously for 3 seconds.

A buzzer sounds and the “dEoF” message disappears from the display.

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 button corresponding to the first manual

cooking mode (top left) and the button simultaneously for 6 seconds. Once the restore procedure is complete, a

buzzer will sound. The first time the button 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 of the standby mode. If no buttons are pressed for 30 minutes and the control panel/door lock has not been activated, the appliance automatically reverts to standby mode. Standby mode is indicated by the high luminosity “Clock button” light. As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, the system’s operating mode is restored.

Modes

!Every time the oven is switched on, it suggests the first manual cooking mode.

Manual cooking modes

 

GB

! 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). Any

 

temperature adjustments will be stored in the appliance

 

memory and suggested again the next time this mode

 

is used. If the selected temperature is lower than the

 

temperature inside the oven, the text “Hot” appears on the

 

TEMPERATURE display. However, it will still be possible

 

to start cooking.

 

MULTILEVEL mode

 

All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the

 

heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks

 

and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two

 

racks may be used at the same time.

 

BARBECUE mode

 

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where

 

present) are activated. The high and direct temperature

 

of the grill is recommended for food which requires a high

 

surface temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven

 

door closed (see “Practical cooking advice”).

 

FAN GRILLING mode

 

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where

 

present) are activated and the fan begins to operate.

 

During part of the cycle the circular heating element is

 

also activated. This combination of features increases the

 

effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided

 

by the heating elements through the forced circulation of

 

the air throughout the oven.

 

This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and

 

allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always

 

cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see “Practical

 

cooking advice”).

 

LOW TEMPERATURE modes

 

This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting,

 

preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and

 

slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options

 

are: 40, 65 and 90°C.

 

PIZZA modes

 

The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan

 

begins to operate. This combination heats the oven rapidly.

 

If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position

 

of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

 

BAKING mode

 

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus

 

guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform

 

manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking

 

temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise).
