Bottom heating element - The heat comes from the bottom of the oven only. Fan cooking - This allows you to roast or roast and bake simoultaneously using any shelf, without flavour transference. Grill element only - can be used for grilling. Defrost Setting - This setting is intended to assist in thawing of frozen food. Model ZOB 641 0 Fig. 1 FO2673 Model ZOB 652 0 Thermostat control knob (Fig. 2) Turn the thermostat control knob to select temperatures between 50°C and 250°C (MAX). 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 Zanussi Service Centre. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. FO2741 Oven control light It will come on every time an heating element is set on operation. Fig. 2 FO2673 The Cooling Fan for the Controls (Model ZOB 652) This oven is provided with a cooling fan, meant to keep the front panel, the knobs and the oven door handle cool. This fan may run on after the oven or grill is switched off, until a normal temperature is reached. 4 20 0 150 Once the oven temperature has been selected, the temperature light will come on and remain on until the oven has reached the correct setting; after that, it will go on and off with the thermostat, showing how the temperature is being maintained. 100 Thermostat control light (°C) 50 MAX End of cooking programmer This device (Fig. 3) allows you to make the oven switch off automatically once the preset time is over. An acousitic signal will be heard when the cooking is completed.The cooking duration can be set up to 90 minutes maximum. Place food in the oven and turn the oven function control knob and the thermostat control knob on the required settings. Turn the timer knob to maximum time position ("90"), then turn it back to set the required cooking time. When the cooking time is over, an acoustic alarm will sound and the oven will switch off automatically. Turn the timer knob on to set the oven on manual operation. 90 15 10 5 75 60 30 Fig. 3 FO2675 When the oven is first installed Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the oven accessories. Once the oven has been installed: a) set the thermostat knob to MAX (250); 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. Repeat this operation for the grill and fan cooking function. 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. To open the oven door, always catch the handle in its central part (Fig. 4). Fig. 4 FO 2161 45 5 Using the oven Always cook with the oven door closed. 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 of the oven, adjust the shelf level as required, or (depending on models) turn the oven function control knob to (bottom heating element only). 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. Fan cooking Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. The fan 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 (fig. 5). If you are cooking only one dish in the fan oven, use the lower positions, as this will give you better results. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Fan cooking 4 3 2 1 Fig. 5 6 Cooking Tables Conventional and fan cooking WEIGHT (GR.)
