! 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.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven;
this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.
In order to cool down the temperature of their exterior,
some models are fitted with a cooling fan that comes on
when the programme selector knob is turned. In this
case, the fan is always on and a normal flow of air can
be heard exiting between the oven door and the control
panel.
Note: when cooking is done, the fan stays on, even
if knob is set to “0”, until the oven has cooled
down sufficiently.
In "Fast cooking" mode, the fan comes on automatically
only when the oven is hot.
Once you have removed the food from the oven, we
recommend you leave the oven door ajar for a few
minutes: this will drastically reduce the duration of the
cooling cycle. The process is controlled by an additional
thermostat and can consist of one or more cycles.
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.
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to
the “0” position.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

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.

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

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking
modes
between 50°C and Max, except for the following
modes
• MAXI-GRILL / MINI-GRILL (recommended: set only
to MAX power level)
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come
on. When using this traditional cooking mode, it is
best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one
rack is used, the heat will be distributed in an uneven
manner.
BAKING mode
The rear heating element and the fan are switched
on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a
delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire
oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking
temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that
need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3
shelves simultaneously.
