How To Use Your Appliance
The various cooking fetures offered by your oven can be selected using the "G" setting knob and variable grill knob (N) located on the 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.
Attention: to use the oven in manual mode without the cooking control timer, match the indicator on the control
panel with the 
symbol on the timer knob.
Using the oven
When the oven control knob (G) is turned in a clockwise
direction to the symbol 
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 240°C).
Note: Whilst using tag oven for conventional cooking knob (N) must be set with “MAX” in line with the reference mark on the control panel.
Grill 
The top centre heating element will come on and the rotisserie motor (if present) will be activated. 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 
Both of the top heating elements turn on and the rotisserie motor (if present) is activated.

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.

Oven Light
The light comes on when the "G" knob is turned to the 
setting. The light illuminates the oven and remains on when any of the heating elements is turned on.
Thermostat Light (L)
This light indicates that the oven is heating. When it turns off, the temperature inside the oven has reached the set- ting 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.
The cook-top electric plate control knobs (I)
The cookers may be equipped with standard, fast and automatic electric plates in various combinations (the fast plates distinguished from the others by a red dot in the centre, the automatic ones by a round aluminium disk at the centre.
To avoid heat dispersion and damage to the plates, recommend using cooking vessels with flat bottoms in diameters which are not smaller than the plate diameter. Table shows the correspondence between the position indicated on the knobs and the use for which the plates advised.

Before using the hot plates for the first time, you should heat them at maximum temperature for approximately 4 minutes, without any pans. During this initial stage, their protective coating hardens and reaches its maximum resistance.
