Start-up and use

Setting the time

In order to use the timer, it must be wound by turning the TIMER knob almost one complete turn in the

clockwise direction . Then, turning it back , set the desired time by lining up the number for the minutes with the mark on the control panel.

Using the oven

!The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

!Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.

In order to cool down the temperature of their exterior, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that comes on when the programme selector knob is turned. In this case, the fan is always on and a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel.

Note: when cooking is done, the fan stays on, even if knob is set to “0”, until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.

In "Fast cooking" mode, the fan comes on automatically only when the oven is hot.

Once you have removed the food from the oven, we recommend you leave the oven door ajar for a few minutes: this will drastically reduce the duration of the cooling cycle. The process is controlled by an additional thermostat and can consist of one or more cycles.

1.Select the desired cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.

2.Select the recommended temperature for the cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob.

A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant table (see Oven cooking advice table).

During cooking it is always possible to:

•Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob.

•Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob.

•Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the “0” position.

!Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

THERMOSTAT indicator light	GB
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat.
It switches off when the inside of the oven reaches
the selected temperature. At this point the light
illuminates and switches off alternately, indicating
that the thermostat is working and is maintaining the
temperature at a constant level.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob
to any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long as
the oven is operating. By selecting 8 with the knob,
the light is switched on without any of the heating
elements being activated.

Cooking modes for Multi-function main oven (1 rst Oven)

!The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

!A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes

between 50°C and Max, except for the following modes

• MAXI-GRILL / MINI-GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)

• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed in an uneven manner.

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 and cooking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously.
