Electronic programmer (main oven only) The electronic programmer is a device that groups together the following functions: – 24 hour clock with illuminated display – Timer (up to 23 hours and 59 minutes) – Programme for automatic oven cooking – Programme for semi-automatic oven cooking.
Electronic clock (fig. 5) Electronic timer The programmer is equipped with an electronic clock with lighted numbers which indicate hours and minutes. Upon immediate connection of the oven or after a blackout, three zeroes will flash on the programmer panel. To set the hour it is necessary to push the button and then the or button until you have set the exact hour (fig. 5). Alternatively, simultaneously push the two buttons and at the same time push the or button.
Automatic oven cooking To cook food automatically in the oven, it is necessary to: 1.Set the length of the cooking time 2.Set the end of the cooking time 3.Set the temperature and the oven cooking programme. These operations are done in the following way: 1.Set the length of the cooking time by pushing the button and the button to advance, or to go back if you have passed the desired time (fig. 8). The AUTO and the symbol will be on. 2.
Semi-automatic cooking This is used to automatically switch off the oven after the desired cooking time has elapsed. There are two ways to set your oven: 1. Set the length of the cooking time by pushing the button and the button to advance, or to go backwards if you have passed the desired time (Fig. 10). At the end of cooking, the oven and the symbol will turn off, the AUTO will flash and a buzzer will sound; that can be stopped by pushing any of the buttons.
How to use the vitroceramic hob The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast transmission of heat in the vertical direction, from the heating elements underneath the ceramic glass to the pans sat on it. The heat does not spread in the horizontal direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at only a few centimeters from the cooking plate. The 5 cooking plates are shown by painted disks on the ceramic surface.
Double and oval radiant zones The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which reaches the working temperature quickly. Operation of the cooking zone is controlled by a continuous energy regulator from “1” to “12” (maximum temperature) (fig. 14). By switching on the second element (fig. 15 and 16), the surface area of the rear right and central radiant zones can be extended. For this purpose, turn the control knob (fig. 14) fully to the right (position ). Fig. 14 Second element Fig.

(vegetables, fruits, soups). 3 6 4 7 Slow boiling, i.e.: boiled meats, spaghetti, soups, continuations of steam cooking of roasts, stews, potatoes.
Residual heat indicator The hob also features 5 warning lights which are connected to the corresponding plates. When the temperature of a cooking plate is above 60°C, the relevant warning light will also light up to warn of heat on the surface of the hob. This light also stay on after the cooking plate has been switched off to show that the hob surface is still hot. This residual heat will lasts for a long time after the cooking plate has been switched off.
Safety hints: Cleaning the hob – Before you switch the hob on, make sure you know which knob controls the required cooking plate. We advise you to set the pan over the cooking plate before switching it on. Remove the pan after you have switched the cooking plate off. – Do not use pots and pans with rough bases (pay attention to cookware made of cast-iron). Rough bases can damage (scratch) the glass surface of the hob. Make sure that the bottom of the pan is dry and clean.
How to use the Multifunction main oven General features As its name indicates, this is an oven that presents particular features from an operational point of view. In fact, it is possible to insert 7 different programs to satisfy every cooking need.
Fig. 20 Fig. 21 Thermostat knob (Fig. 20) This only sets the cooking temperature and does not switch the oven on. Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 to 250°C). The light between the thermostat and the function selector will illuminate when the oven is switched on and turns off when the oven reaches the correct temperature. The light will cycle on and off during cooking in line with the oven temperature. Function selector knob (Fig.
Grilling The infrared grill element comes on. The heat is dispersed by radiation. Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to position 225°C for max 15 minutes, then to position 175°C. For cooking hints, see the chapter “USE OF THE GRILL”. Recommended for: Intense grilling, browning, cooking au gratin and toasting etc. It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time. Caution: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out of reach.
Ventilated grill cooking The infrared grill element and the fan come on. The heat is dispersed mainly by radiation and the fan then distributes it all over the oven. Use with the door closed. The temperature can be regulated via the thermostat knob to between 50° and 175° max. The oven must be preheated for approximately 5 minutes. For cooking hints, see the chapter “GRILLING AND AU GRATIN. Recommended for: Grilling where quick browning on the outside is required to keep the juices in.
Cooking advice Sterilization Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following way: a. b. c. d. Set the switch to position . Set the thermostat knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven. Fill the dripping pan with hot water. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 135 °C.
Grilling and “au gratin” Grilling may be done without the roasting jack on position of the switch, because the hot air completely envelops the food that is to be cooked. Set the thermostat to position 175 °C and after having preheated the oven, simply place the food on the rack. Close the door and let the oven operate with the thermostat on position 175 °C, until grilling is done. Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.
How to use the Conventional oven General features As its name indicates, this is an oven that presents particular features from an operational point of view.
Function selector knob (Fig. 22) Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions. Oven light By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on. It remains on in all the cooking modes. Traditional convection cooking The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat is dispersed by natural convection and the temperature must be set to between 50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob. The oven must be preheated before cooking.
Use of the grill Switch the grill on, setting the two knobs: – Function selector to or position. – Thermostat selector to position 225°C for 15 minutes then to 175°C. Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed. Place the food inside positioning the rack as near as possible to the grill. Insert the drip pan under the rack to collect the cooking juices. Grilling with the oven door closed and do not for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
