After the appliance has been connected to the mains, or after a blackout, the clock will need to be reset.

Setting the minute minder

!The minute minder may be set regardless of whether the oven is switched on or off. It does not switch the oven on or off.

When the set time has elapsed, the minute minder emits a buzzer that will automatically stop after 30 seconds or when any active button on the control panel is pressed.

To adjust the minute minder, proceed as follows:

1.Press the icon.

2.Set the desired time using the control dial.

3.Once you have reached the desired value, press

the icon again.

When the oven is switched off, the countdown appears

on the display. When the oven is on, the lit symbol will remind you that the minute minder is active.

To cancel the minute minder, press the icon and use the control dial to set the time to 00:00. Press

again.

The icon will switch off to indicate that the minute minder has been disabled.

Starting the oven

1.Press to switch on the control panel. The appliance buzzer sounds three times (ascending).

2.Press the icon to select the desired manual cooking mode. The cooking temperature and duration may be set.

Press the icon to select the desired automatic cooking mode. The cooking temperature and duration are both set to default values. Only the duration may be adjusted in accordance with the selected mode. The text “AUTO” appears on the display to indicate that the temperature is following a precise cooking profile. A delayed cooking cycle may be programmed.

3.Press to start the cooking mode.

4.The oven will begin its preheating phase, the preheating indicators will light up as the temperature rises.

5.When the preheating process has finished, a buzzer sounds and all the preheating indicator lights show that this stage has been completed: the food

6. During cooking it is always possible to:

-adjust the temperature by pressing the icon, turning the control dial and confirming by pressing

again (manual modes only );

-set the duration of a cooking mode (see Cooking Modes);

-stop cooking by pressing the icon. 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. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from the point at which it was interrupted, provided that the temperature has not dropped 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 GRILL 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.

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. At the beginning of the cleaning cycle, the cooling fan operates at low speed.

!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 a cooking mode starts (if enabled in the settings menu).

When models featuring LED INSIDE technology begin cooking, the LEDs on the door light up for improved illumination of all cooking levels.

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
