Start-up and use
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
!
Before operating the product, remove all plastic film
from the sides of the appliance.
Starting the oven
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the
SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the recommended temperature for the
cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning
the THERMOSTAT knob.
A list detailing cooking modes and suggested
cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant
table (
see Oven cooking advice table).
During cooking it is always possible to:
• Change the cooking mode by turning the
SELECTOR knob.
• Change the temperature by turning the
THERMOSTAT knob.
• Set the total cooking time and the cooking end
time ( see below).
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to
the “0” position.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.
!
Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating
heat. It switches off when the inside of the oven
reaches the selected temperature. At this point the
light illuminates and switches off alternately,
indicating that the thermostat is working and is
maintaining the temperature at a constant level.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob
to any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long
as the oven is operating. By selecting
8 8 8 8 8
with the
knob, the light is switched on without any of the
heating elements being activated.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven,
a cooling fan blows a jet of air between the control panel
and the oven door.
!
Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan
continues to operate until the oven has cooled down
sufficiently.

Only available in certain models.
Safety Chain
! In order
to prevent
accidental
tipping of the
appliance, for
example by
a child clim-
bing onto the
oven door, the
supplied safety
chain MUST be
installed!
The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by
means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to
the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as
the chain is attached to the appliance.
Choose the screw and the screw anchor according
to the type of material of the wall behind the applian-
ce. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller
than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall
requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and
60mm of length.
Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the
cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that
after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the
ground level.
