Operation Manual

Start-up and use
! 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.
! Before operating the product, remove all plastic film
from the sides of the appliance.
Starting the oven
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.
• Set the total cooking time and the cooking end time
(see below).
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the
“0” position.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
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

with the knob, the
light is switched on without any of the heating elements
being activated.
Cooking modes
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes
between 60°C and Max, except for the following modes
• 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.
FAST COOKING mode
The heating elements and the fan come on, guaranteeing
the distribution of heat consistently and uniformly
throughout the oven.
Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This
mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed
food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are
achieved using one cooking rack only.
MULTI-COOKING mode
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular) switch
on and the fan begins to operate. Since the heat remains
constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns
food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may
be used at the same time.
PIZZA mode
The circular heating elements and the elements at
the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan is
activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly by
producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly
from the element at the bottom. If you use more than one
rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway
through the cooking process.
