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.
Double circuit cooking zone
If you wish to have the two electric circuits
work simultaneously, turn the knob to Max
position (3) and then turn it towards symbol
“0”. You will hear a click. Now the 2 circuits
work together. Then, you can regulate the
power of the cooking zone by turning the
control knob anticlockwise.
Carefully supervise cookings with
oil or fats, since these types of food
can result in a fire, when over-
heated.
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.

The cooling fan for the
controls
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.
The 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.
