operation, an automatic system within the appliance

will reactivate the cooking mode from the point at

which it was interrupted, provided that the

temperature has not dropped below a certain level.

Programmed cooking modes which have not yet

started will not be restored and must be

pressing the

button for 6 seconds. Once the

restore procedure is complete, a buzzer will sound.

The first time the button is pressed, the oven will

behave as if it is being switched on for the first time.

Standby

This product complies with the requirements of the

latest European Directive on the limitation of power

consumption of the standby mode. If no buttons are

pressed for 30 minutes and the control panel/door

lock has not been activated, the appliance

automatically reverts to standby mode. The standby

mode is visualised by the high luminosity “Watch

Icon”. As soon as interaction with the machine

resumes, the system’s operating mode is restored.

! There is no preheating stage for the GRILL mode.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the

oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being

damaged.

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

Cooling ventilation

In order to cool down the external temperature of the

oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between

the control panel and the oven door, as well as

towards the bottom of the oven door.In the FAST

COOKING mode, the fan is activated automatically

after ten minutes. At the beginning of the FAST

CLEAN mode, the cooling fan operates at low

speed.

! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan

continues to operate until the oven has cooled down

sufficiently.

first manual cooking mode.

required speed and slow cooking at low

temperatures. The temperature options are: 40, 65

and 90°C.

Manual cooking modes

BAKING mode

! All cooking modes have a default cooking

temperature which may be adjusted manually to a

value between 30°C and 250°C as desired (300°C for

GRILL mode). Any temperature adjustments will be

stored in the appliance memory and suggested

again the next time this mode is used. If the

selected temperature is higher than the temperature

inside the oven, the text “Hot” appears on the

display. However, it will still be possible to start

cooking.

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 temperature

sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise).

PIZZA mode

The top and circular heating elements switch on and

the fan begins to operate. This combination heats

the oven rapidly. If you use more than one rack at a

time, switch the position of the dishes halfway

through the cooking process.

MULTILEVEL mode

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.

ECO 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

energy saving mode is recommended for small

dishes, ideal for heating foods and finishing off

cooking.

GRILL mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit

(where present) are activated. The high and direct

temperature of the grill is recommended for food

which requires a high surface temperature. Always

cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see

“Practical cooking advice”).

Rotisserie (only available in certain models)

To operate the

rotisserie function (see

diagram) proceed as

follows:

1. Place the dripping

pan in position 1.

2. Place the rotisserie

support in position 3

and insert the spit in

the hole provided on

FAN GRILLING mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit

(where present) are activated and the fan begins to

operate. During part of the cycle the circular heating

element is also activated. This combination of

features increases the effectiveness of the

unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the

heating elements through the forced circulation of

the air throughout the oven.

This helps prevent food from burning on the surface

and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food.

Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed

(see “Practical cooking advice”).

not. The cooking duration can be customised

according to personal tastes, modifying it by ±5/20

minutes depending on the selected programme. If

the value is modified before cooking begins, it is

stored in the appliance memory and suggested

again when that cooking mode is next used. If the

temperature inside the oven is higher than the

suggested value for the selected mode, the text

“Hot” appears on the display and it will not be

possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.

Recipe for BREAD:

1 Dripping pan holding 1000 g Max, lower level

2 Dripping pans each holding 1000 g Max, medium

and lower levels

Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 360 g

water, 11g salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of

powder yeast)

Method:

• Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.

• Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately

35 degrees).

• Make a small well in the mound of flour.

• Pour in the water and yeast mixture.

• Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over

itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes

until it has a uniform consistency and is not too

sticky.

! When the cooking stage has been reached, the

oven buzzer sounds.

! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the

cooking time and temperature.

• Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a

large bowl and cover it with transparent plastic

wrap to prevent the surface of the dough from

drying out. Select the manual LOW

TEMPERATURE function on the oven and set the

temperature to 40°C. Place the bowl inside and

leave the dough to rise for approximately 1 hour

(the dough should double in volume).

• Cut the dough into equal sized loaves.

• Place them in the dripping pan, on a sheet of

baking paper.

BAKED CAKES mode

This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are

made using natural yeast, baking powder and

desserts which contain no yeast. Place the dish in

the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be

placed in a preheated oven.

BREAD mode

Use this function to bake bread. To obtain the best

results, we recommend that you carefully observe

the instructions below:

• Dust the loaves with flour.

• follow the recipe;

• Make incisions on the loaves.

• do not exceed the maximum weight of the

dripping pan;

• remember to pour 100 ml of cold water into the

baking tray in position 5.

• The dough must be left to rise at room

temperature for 1 – 1 ½ hours (depending on the

room temperature) or until the dough has doubled

in size.

• Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.

• Start the

BREAD cooking mode.

• Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill

racks until they have cooled completely.

• Make sure that the power supply cables of other

electrical appliances do not come into contact

with the hot parts of the oven.

For further information relating to the correct

disposal of exhausted household appliances,

owners may contact the relevant public service or

their local dealer.

• The ventilation and heat dispersal openings must

never be obstructed.

Respecting and conserving the

environment

• Always grip the oven door handle in the centre:

the ends may be hot.

• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware

in the oven or when removing it.

• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the

oven.

• Do not place flammable materials in the oven: if

the appliance is switched on accidentally, the

materials could catch fire.

• You can help to reduce the peak load of the

electricity supply network companies by using the

oven in the hours between late afternoon and the

early hours of the morning. The cooking mode

programming options, the “delayed cooking”

mode (see Cooking modes) and “delayed

automatic cleaning” mode (see Care and

Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to

organise their time efficiently.

• Always make sure the knobs are in the “”/“”

position when the appliance is not in use.

• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug

from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.

• Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work

without having disconnected the appliance from

the electricity mains.

• If the event of malfunctions, under no

circumstances should you attempt to perform the

repairs yourself. Contact an authorised Service

Centre (see Assistance).

• Always keep the oven door closed when using the

GRILL and FAN GRILLING modes: this will

achieve improved results while saving energy

(approximately 10%).

• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them

clean to ensure they are free of debris so that

they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding

the dispersal of heat.

! This product complies with the requirements of the

latest European Directive on the limitation of power

consumption of the standby mode.

Care and maintenance

Switching the appliance off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity

supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

• Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven

are due to the different materials used, i.e. glass,

plastic or metal.

• Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven

door glass are caused by reflections from the

oven light.

• The enamel is branded at very high temperatures.

This process may cause colour variations. This is

normal and will not affect appliance operation in

any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal

cannot be entirely enamelled and may therefore

outer sides and close it

approximately half way. Pull

the door towards you, lifting it

out of its slot (see diagram).

To replace the door, reverse

this sequence.

Inspecting the seals

appear to be unfinished. This will not affect the

rust protection.

Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If

the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest

Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend

that the oven is not used until the seals have been

replaced.

• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external

parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using

a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water

and neutral soap. Use specialised products for

the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning,

rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive

powders or corrosive substances.

Replacing the light bulb

• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned

after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot

water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with

a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

• All accessories - with the exception of the sliding

racks - can be washed like everyday crockery,

and are even dishwasher safe.

• We recommend that detergents are not sprayed

directly onto the control panel, but that a sponge

is used instead.

To replace the

oven light bulb:

1. Remove the

glass cover of the

lamp-holder.

sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then

dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough

abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these

could scratch the surface and cause the glass to

crack.

To assemble the
