In case of malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequent over-heating, the safety device will stop the power supply to the appliance. If this happens, call your local Service Centre. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. All cookings must be carried out with the oven door closed When the oven is first installed Once the oven has been installed: F a) set the thermostat knob to MAX; b) switch the oven function control knob to conventional cooking ( ); c) allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes; d) open a window for ventilation. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of manufacturing. Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water. Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the shelf and the dripping pan. To open the oven door, always catch the handle in its central part (Fig. 3). Fig. 3 FO 0799 Cooking with the turnspit F - Place the spit-support frame into the third grid runner from the bottom of the oven (Fig. 4). - Pierce and secure well food on the spit. - Fit the spit tip into the spit motor drive in the back of the oven and lay its front part on the frame groove. - Remove the spit handle. - Turn the oven function control knob on . Leave the oven door closed Set the thermostat function knob on 200°C maximum. Fig. 4 FO 0329 38 Cooking with the Multifunction Oven Conventional cooking Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. If you need more heat from the bottom or from the top, turn the oven function control knob to (top heating element only) or (bottom heating element only). Otherwise, adjust the shelf level (Fig. 5) as required. i Hints and Tips Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the dripping pan in the first position from the bottom with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base. White meat, poultry and fish in general, need a medium temperature cooking (between 150 and 175 ° C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher temperature (between 200 and 250 ° C) for a short time is recommended. Grilling Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil on them and always place them on the oven grid. The shelf level depends on the thinckness of the food. Always place the dripping pan at the lowest level, with some water in it, to avoid smoke and unpleasant smells. The temperatures inside the oven can reach 250°C. Always ensure that you are using oven proof baking trays, oven dishes, etc. Do not place pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil directly on the base of the oven. This could cause a heat build-up which could affect the performance of the oven and damage the oven enamel. Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil, since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire, if overheated. For the same reason, be careful when placing or removing food in the oven, not to let any fat or oil fall on the oven base. If this happens, carefully clean the oven to avoid unpleasant smells or smoke. Hints and Tips on baking Cakes usually need a medium temperature cooking, between 150 and 200 °C. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) is recommeded when cooking cakes or baking. Once the cooking has been started, keep the oven door closed during all the cooking time, and check the cooking results through the oven door glass. Hints and Tips on grilling If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them. In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness. Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it. 4 3 2 1 Fig. 5 FO 0285 39 Cooking Tables Traditional cooking WEIGHT (GR.)

When using spray cleaning products, be careful not to spread them on the heating elements or on the thermostat sensor. Never use harsh abrasives, steel wool or cleaners with bleach, as they could damage the enamel and the oven door glass. The Oven Cavity The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. It is advisable to wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. However, from time to time, it will be necessary to do a more complete cleaning, using a proper oven cleaner. In case of particularly tough stains, you can use stainless steel cleaning products or some warm vinegar. If cooking fruits, some over-heated natual acids can squeeze and settle on the oven enamel, causing stains quite difficult to remove. This could affect the enamel brightness, but it will have no consequence on the oven performances. To avoid these stains to be burnt out during the next cooking, carefully clean the oven cavity after all fruits cookings.
