• With this
(fan assisted)mode heat is transmitted to
the food through pre-heated air made to circulate inside
the oven by a fan. The oven heats up very quickly so the
food to be cooked may be put into the oven as soon as it
is switched on. Cooking is also possible simultaneously
on two shelves.
• The “fast defrosting“ function
uses no heating
elements, just the oven light and the fan.
• Grill operation: a high heat output is used for grilling, so
that the surface of the food is immediately browned; this
is particularly indicated for meats which should remain
tender on the inside. To grill, turn the selector knob "G" to
one of these positions:
(grill),
(maxigrill),
(max fan)
During grilling, do not set the thermostat knob to above
200 °C and keep the oven door closed.
Oven light
The oven light comes on automatically when the selector
knob
is turned to any of its positions.
Minute minder "T"
This is a buzzer timer situated on the control panel and is
suitable for timing up to a max. of 60 minutes.
Turn the knob with the symbol
until the pointer is aligned
with the required time. When the set time has elapsed, a
buzzer sounds (it does not turn the oven off).
It is advisable to turn the knob to 60 and then back to the
time required, even if this is less than 60 minutes.
See pages 5-6 for the cooking times and temperatures
required for different foods.
Spit - Rotisserie
Insert the meat to be cooked along the length of the spit
rod, securing it with the special adjustable forks (fig. 2).
Introduce the supports “A” and “B” (fig. 3) into the holes in
the drip tray “E”, rest the rod groove on the seat “C” and
insert the oven rack into the lowest guide of the oven; now
insert the spit rod into the relative hole, moving the groove
forward into seat “D” . Start the rotisserie by turning the
selector knob to one of the following positions:
fig.2
fig.3
Indicator light "S"
(figure a on page 2) It indicates that the oven is heating up.
When the light goes out, the required temperature has been
reached inside the oven.
When the light alternately comes on and goes out, it means
that the thermostat is working properly to maintain the oven
temperature.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Important: The appliance should be disconnected from
the mains supply before starting cleaning operations.
To ensure a long life cycle for the appliance, it is essential
to carry out a thorough general clean frequently, while
observing the following instructions:
Inside the oven door:
Clean the surface with a cloth moistened with hot water
and non abrasive liquid detergent, then rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Inside the oven:
• The inside of your oven is coated with a special self-
cleaning microporous enamel glaze which, at a normal
cooking temperature of between 200 and 300°C, oxidises
and completely eliminates all grease spots or other
substances that inevitably attack the inner walls of the
oven. This way, cleaning is kept right down to a minimum:
as a matter of fact, you just need to rub the surfaces of
the oven with a wet cloth regularly, after cooking, to
remove the thin layer of ash that may have been deposited
during cooking, in order to maintain the self-cleaning
property of the oven intact.
• After cooking where liquid has overflowed or when the
dirt has not been eliminated completely (for example when
grilling food, and the temperatures reached are not high
enough for the full self-cleaning action of the enamel to
be performed), we recommend you leave the oven on at
maximum temperature so that all grease residue and
the like are eliminated.
• If, after long-term use, you find evident grease stains
deposited on the self-cleaning oven walls, probably due
to your failing to follow the above maintenance advice,
clean the surfaces thoroughly with hot water and a soft
cloth (do not use any detergents), then rinse and dry
thoroughly.
• Do not remove any dry caked-on grease using sharp
objects, as these could etch the self-cleaning coating.
• If the self-cleaning surfaces inside the oven are damaged
or worn, due to incorrect or poor maintenance or after
many years of use, you can request a kit of self-cleaning
panels to line the inside of the oven. To order these, just
contact an authorised Service Centre.
