English Warnings - Built-in ovens It is most important that the instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance. Installation l l Any installation work must be undertaken by a qualified electrician or competent person. Installation and initial adjustment of your oven MUST be carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with current regulations. Specific installation instructions for the installer are given in this booklet. l l During use l l l l l l l l l l This appliance has been designed for cooking edible foodstuffs only, and must not be used for any other purposes. It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify the product in any way. Appliances become very hot with use, and retain their heat for a long period after use. Always ensure that the control knobs are in the off position when not in use. For hygiene and safety reasons, this appliance should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or foodstuffs could result in a fire. Never line any part of the oven with aluminium foil. Easy clean-liners (if provided) should never be cleaned with any other than soapy water. Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out on the appliance, always turn off the isolator switch at the cooker point, and allow to cool. During oven cooking and grilling, the appliance door and the surrounding parts are warmed up to a very high temperature. Be careful and keep children away from the appliance while you are using it. When you connect other appliances to a plug near the oven, check carefully that the wire does not touch warm parts of the oven and does not get taken in the oven door. Ensure that the shelves are put in place in the correct way. This oven (even if it is linked to an electrical cooking table) is made to function at 230 V mono, double or three-phase with neutral. A polyphase linking without neutral (400 V) can induce the distruction of the oven and of the eventual cooking table. Child safety l l This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product. Children should be supervised at all times and should not be allowed to touch the hot surfaces or be in the vicinity when in use or until the appliance has cooled after use. Technical assistance l l This appliance should be serviced by an authorized Network Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local Service Centre. Always insist on genuine spare parts. 43 Guide to Use the instructions Safety Instructions F Step by step instructions for an operation Hints and Tips MANUFACTURER: ELECTROLUX ZANUSSI S.p.A.

If a different type of heating is required, for example more heat on the bottom or the top, you should turn the switch to the symbols (heat from below) or (heat from above). In these conditions the temperature will never exceed 250°C. Fig. 3 3 FO 2143 Control lights Oven thermostat control light: This light goes off when the oven heats up to the temperature set and comes on again every time the thermostat cuts in to stabilize temperature. Operating control light: It indicates that one or more of the heating elements are turned on. Hotplate control knobs The Control Knobs for the hotplates (Fig. 3) can be found on the oven control panel. The energy regulator of the hotplates can be set by means of a 7-position control knob: 0 = Off 1 = Minimum 3 = Maximum The intermediate positions give an increasing heating power. Carefully supervise cookings with oil or fats, since these types of food can result in a fire, when over-heated. Safety thermostat In order to avoid excessive overheating due to incorrect use of the appliance or else to a faulty component, the oven is equipped with a safety thermostat which cuts off the power supply if necessary. Operation is restored automatically when the oven temperature decreases to normal values. Therefore, if the thermostat cuts in because you have not been using the appliance correctly, the oven can be used again simply by waiting for the appliance to cool down. If, instead, the thermostat cuts in because of a faulty component, you should call the Service Department. 46 200 1 2 Hints and tips for using the oven Always cook with the oven door closed. Conventional cooking Heat comes from the top and from the bottom, therefore it is preferable to use the central runners. If cooking requires more heat from the top or from the bottom use the top or the bottom runners. Some hints For baking cakes Cakes require a moderate temperature (normally between 150 and 200°C). In addition, the oven must be heated up beforehand - for about 10 minutes. The oven door should not be opened before at least 3/4 of the set cooking time is up. Normal short pastry dough should be cooked in a mould or tin for 2/3 of total cooking time required and then garnished as desired before being cooked completely. Clearly, the remaining cooking time depends on the type of garnish used (jam, fruit, etc.). Care should be taken to ensure that any dough and cake mixes are of the right consistency since an unduly moist mix lengthens cooking time unnecessarily. The raw dough or mix should therefore be fairly difficult to detach from the spoon or beater. For cooking meat and fish Meat cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kg to prevent it from becoming too dry during cooking. Very tender red meat to be cooked rare, i.e. well cooked on the outside but extremely juicy inside, requires high-temperature cooking (200-250°C). White meat, poultry and fish instead require low-temperature cooking (150-175°C). The ingredients for the accompanying sauce or gravy should be put in the baking pan at the very beginning only when cooking times are short.Otherwise they should be added during the last half hour. A simple way of checking whether meat is done or not is to press it with a spoon; if the meat does not yield under this pressure it means that it is done to a turn. In the case of roast beef and fillet steaks, the inside of which should remain fairly pink in color, cooking times must be short. The meat can be cooked in a baking pan or else directly on the shelf in this case a dripping pan must obviously be placed underneath the shelf to collect the juice. Once the meat is cooked, it is advisable to let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving so that the juice does not seep out. To prevent the formation of too much smoke in the oven during roasting, it is a good idea to pour a little water into the dripping pan andto prevent steamto add a little bit more during cooking if the original amount dries up too much. Before serving, the various courses can be kept hot in the oven which should be turned down to the minimum temperature. Attention! - Do not place pans, dripping pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil on the oven bottom. This could cause a heat build-up which would affect the baking results and damage the oven enamel. Cooking times Cooking times vary according to the type of food to be cooked, its consistency, and volume.We suggest that you take particular note of your first cooking experiments with the oven, since operating in the same conditions for the same dishes you will of course obtain similar results. Only experience will enable you to make the appropriate changes to values given on charts. 47 Roasting and baking table Type of dish Temperature °C Shelf position 4 3 2 1 Cooking time in minutes Mixture with beaten egg whites With raised mixture White bread Bread rolls Shortpastry - pie base Jam tarts Tarte avec garniture sèche Strudel Cheesecake Apply pie SMALL CAKES Biscuits Macaroni Small quiches Meringues MEAT Roast beef Duck Goose Chicken Turkey Rabbit FLANS Fish 1 1/2 - 2 kg 3 kg 1 kg 5 kg 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 175-200 150-170 150-170 150-170 80-100 175-200 220-225 200-225 200-210 175-200 175-200 170-190 170-190 1° 2° 1° 1° 3° 2° 2° 2° 2° 2° 3° 3° 2° 2° 2° 2° 2° 2° 2° 2° 1° 2° 55-65 60-70 60-70 30-45 30-40 50-60 40-50 8-10 25-35 25-35 15-20 25-35 25-30 50-70 12-15 every cm of thickness 120-180 150-210 60-90 240 90-180 35-40 40-50 48 Cleaning and Maintenance Before any cleaning switch the oven off and let it cool down. This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine. Important! Before carrying out maintenance and cleaning operations, make sure that your oven is disconnected from the mains power supply. Cleaning must be carried out after the oven has cooled down. Wash the enamelled parts with lukewarm water and detergent. Do not use abrasive products, such as steel wool pads, acids etc. since these could damage the various surfaces. Rinse stainless steel parts with water after use, and dry them with a soft cloth or chamois leather. In the case of persistent stains, you can use normal non-abrasive detergents or products specific for stainless steel readily available on the market. Another alternative is a drop of hot vinegar. When cleaning the oven door with the glass top cover use just hot water, taking care to avoid using coarse cloths or abrasive products. The hot acids of fruit (e.g. Iemons, stewed prunes, etc.) leave difficult-to-remove stains on the enamelled surfaces; this inconvenient may remove enamel gloss, but, it does not impair oven operation. Clean the oven thoroughly after use; in this way it will be possible to remove cooking residuals more easily, thus avoiding these from burning the next time the oven is used. tension: 230 V (50 Hz); - Power: 25 W; Fitting: E 14. Reconnect the appliance. Oven door cleaning For a better cleansing of the oven door, you are suggested to remove it from the appliance with the following procedure: open tho door completely; lift the small levers placed on the two hinges and turn the levers towarde the inside (Fig. 5). Slowly close the oven door, until it touches the two levers, then push it towards the oven and remove it by pulling it towards the outeide. Place the door on a horizontal level. After cleaning, assemble the door again by carrying out the procedure described above backwards. When the two small levers are placed again on the hinges, the door will have been accurately fit.
