How To Use Your Appliance
The various functions included in the cooker are selected by operating the control devices located on the cooker control panel.
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recom- mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door and let the room air. The odour that is often detected dur- ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in- stalled.
Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when using the rotisserie to cook (where present). For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grate provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.
N.B.: Should the appliance be equipped with an electronic programmer, to use the electric oven, just press buttons
Vand W at the same time (the m symbol will appear
on the display) before selecting the desired cooking function.
Attention: to use the oven in manual mode without the cooking control timer, match the indicatore on the control
panel with the 9 symbol on the timer knob.
Using the oven
When the oven control knob (L) is turned in a clockwise direction to the symbol X the fan and oven light will come on to assist in the defrosting of frozen food. Rotating further to the complete range of temperatures shown on the dial you can choose which is most suitable for the food you are going to cook. The temperature is reached automatically and controlled by the oven thermostat (from 50°C to Max).
Note: Whilst using tag oven for conventional cooking knob (M) must be set with “MAX” in line with the reference mark on the control panel.
Grill F
The top centre heating element will come on. On this setting, food is cooked by the thermal radiation given off in the downward direction by the electric heating element. The very high temperature and direct heat of the grill make it possible to brown meats on the surface while locking in the juices to keep them tender.
Double Grill d
Both of the top heating elements turn on.

Important: when using the grill, the oven door must be left partly open by positioning the deflector “D” between door and panel to prevent the cooker knobs from overheating.

Thermostat Light (O)
This light indicates that the oven is heating.When it turns off, the temperature inside the oven has reached the setting made with the thermostat knob. At this point, the light will turn on and off as the oven maintains the temperature at a constant level.
Attention
Avoid the children touch the oven door because it is very hot during the cooking.
