Introduction  
Your new electric oven is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance has  
been installed in accordance with the installation instructions detailed in this booklet.  
To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.  
The oven is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.  
Note:When the oven is first used, an odour may be omitted - this will cease after a short period of use.  
To help remove the 'new' smell, heat the empty oven to maximum temperature for a minimum of two to three hours,  
keeping the door/s closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (eg. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that  
persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room  
until the smell has ceased.  
This odour is due to any temporary finish on oven linings and elements and any moisture absorbed by the insulation.  
*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:  
(a) Has been used solely in accordance with this booklet.  
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate, attached to the  
appliance.

How to use your oven  
This multi-function oven combines the advantages of tra-  
ditional convection ovens with those of the more modern  
fan assisted models in a single appliance.  
It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to  
choose easily and safely between 5 different cooking  
modes. The various features offered by the oven are se-  
lected by means of selector knob “B” and thermostat “C”  
situated on the control panel.  
dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cook-  
ing temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 racks  
can be used at the same time, following the instructions in  
the section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”.  
This fan assisted mode is particularly recommended for  
dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those requiring con-  
siderably prolonged cooking times, such as for example:  
lasagne, pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, etc…  
Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possi-  
ble to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This  
results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender  
and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast.The fan  
assisted mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which  
can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of  
condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appear-  
ance.  
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recom-  
mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting  
and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing  
in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door  
and let the room air.The odour that is often detected dur-  
ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances  
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in-  
stalled.  
Desserts:the fan assisted mode is also perfect for baking  
leavened cakes.  
Notice: Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom  
shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from  
dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling  
food or when using the rotisserie (only available on cer-  
tain models). For all other types of cooking, never use the  
bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of  
the oven when it is in operation because this could dam-  
age the enamel.Always place your cookware (dishes, alu-  
minium foil, etc. etc.) on the grid provided with the appli-  
ance inserted especially along the oven guides  
Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly  
white or red meat and bread by setting the temperature to  
80 °C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the thermostat to  
60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting  
the thermostat to 0°C.  
“Top” oven c  
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max.  
The top heating element comes on.  
This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cook-  
ing.  
Notice: to use the oven in manual mode (not using the  
end cooking time programmer), the 9 symbol must be  
aligned with the reference mark on the control panel.  
Grill d  
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Max  
The top central heating element comes on.  
The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill  
makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts  
while locking in the juices to keep them tender.The grill is  
also highly recommended for dishes that require a high  
temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak,  
filets, hamburgers etc...  
Cook food with the oven door ajar.  
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cook-  
ing Advice” paragraph.  
Convection Mode a  
Position of thermostat knob “C”: between 60°C and Max.  
On this setting, the top and bottom heating elements come  
on. This is the classic, traditional type of oven which has  
been perfected, with exceptional heat distribution and re-  
duced energy consumption. The convection oven is still  
unequalled when it comes to cooking dishes made up of  
several ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, Spanish style  
cod, Ancona style stockfish, tender veal strips with rice,  
etc. Excellent results are achieved when preparing veal  
or beef-based dishes as well (braised meats, stew, gou-  
lash, wild game, ham etc.) which need to cook slowly and  
require basting or the addition of liquid. It nonetheless re-  
mains the best system for baking cakes as well as fruit  
and cooking using covered casserole dishes for oven bak-  
ing.When cooking in convection mode, only use one drip-  
ping pan or cooking rack at a time, otherwise the heat  
distribution will be uneven. Using the different rack heights  
available, you can balance the amount of heat between  
the top and the bottom of the oven. Select from among  
the various rack heights based on whether the dish needs  
more or less heat from the top.  
Fan Assisted Grill e  
Position of thermostat knob “C:between 60°C and 200°C.  
The top central heating element and the fan come on.This  
combination of features increases the effectiveness of the  
unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements  
through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven.  
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, al-  
lowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent  
results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and  
vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken in a spicy  
sauce, quail, pork chops, etc.  
Cook food in “fan assisted grill mode” with the oven  
door shut.  
This mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks, like sword-  
fish, tuna, grouper, stuffed cuttlefish etc.  
Fan Assisted Mode b  
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max.  
The heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on.  
Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout  
the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its  
entire surface.With this mode, you can also cook various

How to KeepYour Oven in Shape  
How to remove the oven door  
For a more thorough clean, you can remove the oven  
door. Proceed as follows:  
Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance, dis-  
connect it from the power supply.  
To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned  
frequently, keeping in mind that:  
open the door fully;  
lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two  
hinges;  
Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.  
the enamelled or stainless steel parts should be  
washed with lukewarm water without using any abra-  
sive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin  
them; Stainless steel could get stained. If these stains  
are difficult to remove, use special products available  
on the market. After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse  
thoroughly and dry.  
grip the door on the two external sides, shut it slowly  
but not completely;  
pull the door towards you, pulling it out of its seat;  
Reassemble the door by following the above procedures  
backwards.  
1

the inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned  
immediately after use, when it is still warm, with hot  
water and soap; the soap should be rinsed away and  
the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive de-  
tergents (for example cleaning powders, etc…) and  
abrasive sponges for dishes or acids (such as  
limescale-remover, etc…) as these could damage the  
enamel. If the grease spots and dirt are particularly  
tough to remove, use a special product for oven clean-  
ing, following the instructions provided on the packet.  
if you use your oven for an extended period of time,  
condensation may form. Dry it using a soft cloth.  
there is a rubber seal surrounding the oven opening  
which guarantees its perfect functioning. Check the  
condition of this seal on a regular basis. If necessary,  
clean it and avoid using abrasive products or objects  
to do so. Should it become damaged, please contact  
your nearest After-sales Service Centre. We recom-  
mend you avoid using the oven until it has been re-  
paired.  
Replacing the Oven Lamp  
Disconnect the oven from the power supply by means  
of the omnipolar switch used to connect the appliance  
to the electrical mains; or unplug the appliance if the  
plug is accessible;  
Remove the glass cover of the lamp-holder;  
Remove the lamp and replace with a lamp resistant to  
high temperatures (300°C) with the following charac-  
teristics:  
-
-
-
Voltage: 230/240 V  
Wattage 25W  
Type E14  
Replace the glass cover and reconnect the oven to  
the mains power supply.  
never line the oven bottom with aluminium foil, as the  
consequent accumulation of heat could compromise  
the cooking and even damage the enamel.  
clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or  
sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.

Practical Cooking Advice  
When using this mode, place the grid on the 2nd or 3rd  
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow  
you to cook any type of food in the best possible way.With  
time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile  
cooking appliance and the following directions are only a  
guideline which may be varied according to your own per-  
sonal experience.  
oven rack from the bottom (see cooking table) then, to  
prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of  
the oven and thus smoke from forming, place a dripping-  
pan on the 1st rack from the bottom.  
Important: always use the fan assisted grillwith the  
oven door shut. This will allow you both to obtain excellent  
results and to save on energy (approximately 10%).  
When using this mode, we advise you to set the thermostat  
to 200°C, as it is the most efficient way to use the grill,  
which is based on the use of infrared rays. However, this  
does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply  
by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired tempera-  
ture.  
Preheating  
If the oven must be preheated (this is generally the case  
when cooking leavened foods), the “fan assisted” mode  
bcan be used to reach the desired temperature as quickly  
as possible in order to save on energy.  
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most  
appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.  
Therefore the best results when using the grill modes  
are obtained by placing the grid on the lower racks  
(see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease  
from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and smoke  
from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st oven  
rack from the bottom.  
Cooking on More Than One Rack  
If you have to cook on more than one rack at the same  
time, use only the “fan assisted modeb which is the  
only one that is appropriate for this type of cooking.  
The oven is fitted with 5 racks. During fan assisted  
cooking, use two of the three central racks; the lowest  
and highest racks receive the hot air directly and  
therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these  
racks.  
Baking Cakes  
When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated  
oven. Make sure you wait until the oven has been  
preheated thoroughly (the red light “E” will turn off). Do  
not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake  
from dropping. In general:  
As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th rack from the  
bottom, placing the foodstuffs that require greater heat  
on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when  
cooking meat roasts together with other food, place  
the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the more  
delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.  
When cooking foodstuffs that require differing times  
and temperatures, set a temperature that is somewhere  
between the two temperatures required, place the more  
delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom and take  
the food requiring less time out of the oven first.  
Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on  
the upper;  
Pastry is too dry  
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the  
cooking time.  
Pastry dropped  
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.  
Pastry is too dark on top  
Using the Grill  
This multi-function oven offers you 2 different grilling  
modes.  
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and  
increase the cooking time.  
Use the “grill” mode d, with the oven door ajar, placing  
the food under the centre of the grill (situated on the 3rd  
or 4th rack form the bottom) because only the central part  
of the top heating element is turned on.  
Use the bottom rack (1st from the bottom), placing the  
dripping pan provided to collect any sauce and/or grease  
and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom.  
When using this mode, we recommend you set the  
thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not  
mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply by  
adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperatu-  
re.  
Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the  
outside  
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase  
the cooking time.  
The pastry sticks to the pan  
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of  
flour or use greaseproof paper.  
I used more than one level (in the function  
"ventilated oven") and they are not all at the same  
cooking point  
Setting e fan assisted grill”, only with the oven door  
shut, is extremely useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the  
distribution of heat makes it possible not only to brown  
the surface, but also to cook the bottom part.  
Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to  
remove the food from all the racks at the same time.  
Moreover, it can also be used for browning foods at the  
end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin  
finish to pasta bakes, for example.

Practical Cooking Advice  
Cooking Pizza  
Cooking Fish and Meat  
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature  
settings from 180 °C to 200 °C.  
For red meat that should be well done on the outside while  
tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with  
a high temperature setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time,  
then turn the oven down afterwards.  
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature  
setting.Place the meat on the centre of the grid and place  
the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat.  
Make sure that the grid is inserted so that it is in the centre  
of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of  
heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savoury  
roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat  
with lard or bacon on the top.  
For best results when cooking pizza, use the “fan  
assisted b mode:  
Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes;  
Use a light aluminium pizza pan, placing it on the grid  
supplied with the oven. If the dripping pan is used, this  
will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a  
crispy crust;  
Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza  
is cooking;  
If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four), we  
recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top  
halfway through the cooking process.  
When cooking pizza on two racks, use the 2nd and  
4th with a temperature of 220°C and place the pizzas  
in the oven after having preheated it for at least 10  
minutes.
