The minute minder will not affect in any way the oven operation. 5 10 45 15 The Safety Thermostat This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. 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. Fig. 3 30 FO 2456 Cooling fan All cookings must be carried out with the oven door closed The purpose of the fan is to cool the control panel, the knobs and the oven door handle. The air stream flows out between the control panel and the oven door handle. To ensure proper cooling, the fan will continue to operate even after the oven is turned off, until normal temperature levels have been reached. 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. 4). Fig. 4 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 your dish need more heat from the top or from the bottom adjust the shelf level as required (see Fig. 6). i Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat The Fan Oven Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. The fan situated behind the back panel circulates heated air into the oven. If you need to cook more than one dish in the fan oven at the same time, place the shelves on the first and third position from the bottom (See Fig. 5). If you are cooking only one dish in the fan oven, use the lower positions, as this will give you better results. 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. i Hints and Tips on baking Defrosting Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the OFF position (symbol : l). The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases the rate at which defrosting takes place. 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. i Hints and Tips on grilling Grilling Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. Place the oven shelf as shown in Fig. 6. 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 FO 0061 Fig.5 FO 0285 Fig. 6 39 Cooking Tables Traditional cooking and fan ducted 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. Fig. 7 FO 0288 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. Fig. 8 FO 0027 The Oven Door and its gasket F Before cleaning the oven door, we recommend you to remove it from the oven. Proceed as follows: a) open the oven door completely; b) find the hinges linking the door to the oven (fig 7); c) unlock and turn the small levers located on the two hinges (fig. 7); d) handle the door by its left- and right-hand sides, then slowly turn it towards the oven until it is halfclosed; e) gently pull the oven door off its site (fig. 7); f) place it on a steady plan; g) unscrew the two screws marked with lett. A fig.8; h) pull up the oven door glass and take it away from the oven door. Clean the oven door glass with warm water and a softh cloth only. Once the cleaning is carried out, refit the oven door, following the procedure in reverse. The correct operation of the oven is ensured by a gasket placed round the edge of the oven cavity. Periodically check the condition of this gasket. If necessary, clean it without using abrasive cleaning products. If the gasket shows to be damaged, call you local Service Centre. Do not use the oven until it has been repaired. Fig. 9 FO 0287 Ensure the electricity supply is switched off before carrying out this operation. The oven bulb has to comply to these features: a) resistant to temperatures of 300 °C; b) electric rate: 230 V - 50 Hz; c) electric power rate: 15 W.; d) connection type: E 14. To replace the bulb, proceed as follows (Fig. 9): a) push in and turn the glass lid anticlockwise; b) remove tha faulty bulb; c) replace it with a new one; d) refit the glass lid; e) switch on the electricity supply.

Open teh oven door and secure the oven to the kitchen cabinet with four wood screws, which fit the holes provided in the oven frame (Fig.13). When installing an electric plate hob over the oven, the hob's electrical connection and the oven's one have to be carried out separately, for security reasons and to let the oven be taken off the unit easier, if necessary. Securing the Oven to the Cabinet Electrical Connection Before the appliance is connected: 1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation can support the load; 2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in compliance with the current rules; 3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for the electrical connection can be easily reached with the appliance built in the forniture unit. This appliance is delivered without an electric supply cable, therefore, you will have to fit to it a supply cable with standard plug, suitable for the total electric load shown on the rating plate. The plug is to be inserted into a suitable wall socket. If connecting the appliance directly to the electric system, a double pole switch must be installed between the appliance and the electricity supply, with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current rules. The earth wire must not be interrupted by the double switch pole. The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in each part, it cannot reach a temperature 50 °C higher than the room temperature. After the connection is carried out, test the heating elements for about 3 minutes. Suitable power supply cables are the following types, considering the respective necessary section of cable.
