Using energy in a respon-
sible way not only saves
money but also helps the
environment. So let’s save
energy! And this is how you
can do it:
Do not uncover the pan too often
(a watched pot never boils!).
Do not open the oven door unnecessarily
often.
 Switch o󰀨 the oven in good time and
make use of residual heat.
For long cooking times, switch o󰀨 heating
zones5to10minutesbeforenishingcook-
ing. This saves up to 20% on energy.
Only use the oven when cooking larger
dishes.
Meat of up to 1 kg can be prepared more
economically in a pan on the cooker hob.
Make use of residual heat from the
oven.
If the cooking time is greater than 40 minutes
switch o󰀨 the oven 10 minutes before the
end time.
Important! When using the timer,
set appropriately shorter cooking
times according to the dish being
prepared.
Make sure the oven door is properly
closed.
Heat can leak through spillages on the door
seals. Clean up any spillages immediately.
Do not install the oven in the direct
vicinity of refrigerators/freezers.
Otherwise energy consumption increases
unnecessarily.

OPERATION
Before using the appliance for the
rst time
Important!
To clean the oven, only use a cloth
well rang out with warm water to
which a little washing-up liquid has
been added.
First start – preliminary cleaning
To remove residues of fat and oil accumulated
during the manufacturing process and dust
accumulated during storage and transport,
the preliminary cleaning of the equipment
should be carried out. This way our health
is protected and tasty cakes and roasts are
provided.
Caustic agents and abrasive powders
should be avoided as they can damage
the surface.
Preliminary heating
1. Remove packaging elements from the
oven chamber.
2. Turn on ventilation in the room or open a
window.
3. Start the oven at the temperature of 2500C.
4. Heat the oven for around 30 minutes.
The smell that is emitted during the rst
heating of the oven is connected with
vapouring of residues of fat and oil used to
protect the oven for the time of storing.

OPERATION
Oven functions and operation.
Theovencanbeswitchedo󰀨bysettingboth

Caution!
When selecting any heating function (switch-
ing a heater on etc.) the oven will only be
switched on after the temperature has ben
set by the Thermostat Control.

Fan oven
Using the circular element and the fan
with a temperature between 50°C and
250°C, this cooking function blows the
air into and around the oven cavity.
Heating in this manner helps to ensure
uniform heat circulation. Both cooking
temperatures and cooking times can
bereducedforamoreenergye󰀩cient
cooking process.

Half grill
This function radiates the heat from the
grill element.
This fully temperature variable grill
can be set between 50°C and 250°C
maximum.
Fanned full grill
This function radiates the heat from
the grill element and the top element
with fan.
This function allows the grilling pro-
cess to be speeded up and an impro-
vement in the taste of the dish.
Full grill
This function radiates the heat from
the grill element and the top element.
This fully temperature variable grill is
ideal for grilling a full family meal. It
can be set between 50°C and 250°C
maximum.
The oven can be heated up using the top
heater, the grill or the ultra-fan heater. Opera-
tion of the oven is controlled by the Function
SelectorControl–tosetarequiredfunction
you should turn the Control to the selected
position, and the Thermostat Control – to set
arequiredtemperatureyoushouldturnthe
Control to the selected position.
ECO Heating
This is an optimised heating function
designed to save energy when prepa-
ring food. When using this function, the
ovenlightisintentionallylefto󰀨.

Use of the grill
The grilling process operates through infrared
rays emitted onto the dish by the incandes-
cent grill heater.
In order to switch on the grill you need to:
Set the Function Selector Control to the
position marked grill.
Heat the oven for approx. 5 minutes (with
the oven door shut).
Insert a tray with a dish onto the appropri-
ate cooking level; and if you are grilling
on the grate insert a tray for dripping on
the level immediately below (under the
grate).
Close the oven door.
For grilling with the function grill and
combined grill the temperature must be
set to 250ºC, but for the function fan and
grill it must be set to a maximum of 190ºC.
Warning!
When using function grill it is
recommended that the oven
door is closed.
When the grill is in use ac-
cessible parts can become
hot.
It is best to keep children
away from the oven.
12
OPERATION
Switching on the oven is indicated by two
signal lights, R, L, turning on. The Rlight
turned on means the oven is working. If the L
light goes out, it means the oven has reached
the set temperature. If a recipe recommends
placing dishes in a warmed-up oven, this
should be not done before the Llight goes out
forthersttime.Whenbaking,theLlight will
temporarily come on and go out (to maintain
the temperature inside the oven).

Light
The oven light will be turned on.

BAKING IN THE OVEN – PRACTICAL HINTS
Baking
Roasting meat
cook meat weighing over 1 kg in the oven, but smaller pieces should be cooked on
the gas burners.
use heatproof ovenware for roasting, with handles that are also resistant to high
temperatures;
when roasting on the drying rack or the grate we recommend that you place a baking
tray with a small amount of water on the lowest level of the oven;
it is advisable to turn the meat over at least once during the roasting time and during
roastingyoushouldalsobastethemeatwithitsjuicesorwithhotsaltywater–do
not pour cold water over the meat.
we recommend using the baking trays which were provided with your cooker;
it is also possible to bake in cake tins and trays bought elsewhere which should be
put on the drying rack; for baking it is better to use black trays which conduct heat
better and shorten the baking time;
shapes and trays with bright or shiny surfaces are not recommended when using the
conventional heating method (top and bottom heaters), use of such tins can result in
undercooking the base of cakes;
when using the ultra-fan function it is not necessary to initially heat up the oven
chamber, for other types of heating you should warm up the oven chamber before
the cake is inserted;
before the cake is taken out of the oven, check if it is ready using a wooden stick (if
the cake is ready the stick should come out dry and clean after being inserted into
the cake);
 afterswitchingo󰀨theovenitisadvisabletoleavethecakeinsideforabout5min.;
temperatures for baking with the ultra-fan function are usually around 20 – 30 degrees
lower than in normal baking (using top and bottom heaters);
the baking parameters given in Table are approximate and can be corrected based
on your own experience and cooking preferences;
 ifinformationgiveninrecipebooksissignicantlydi󰀨erentfromthevaluesincluded
in this instruction manual, please apply the instructions from the manual.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
By ensuring proper cleaning and mainte-
nance of your cooker you can have a sig-
nicantinuenceonthecontinuingfault-free
operation of your appliance.
Before you start cleaning, the cooker must
be switched o󰀨 and you should ensure
that all knobs are set to the “O󰀨” position.
Do not start cleaning until the cooker has
completely cooled.
●The oven should be cleaned after every
use. When cleaning the oven the lighting
should be switched on to enable you to
see the surfaces better.
●The oven chamber should only be washed
with warm water and a small amount of
washing-upliquid.
●After cleaning wipe over chamber dry.
●Use a soft, moisture absorbing cloth to
clean surfaces

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Door removal
In order to obtain easier access to the oven
chamber for cleaning, it is possible to remove
the door. To do this, tilt the safety catch part
ofthehingeupwards(g.A).Closethedoor
lightly, lift and pull it out towards you. In order
totthedoorbackontothecooker,dothe
inverse.Whentting,ensurethatthenotchof
the hinge is correctly placed on the protrusion
ofthehingeholder.Afterthedooristtedto
the oven, the safety catch should be carefully
lowered down again. If the safety catch is not
set it may cause damage to the hinge when
closing the door.
Removing the inner panel
1. Usingaatscrewdriverunhooktheup-
per door slat, prying it gently on the sides
(g.B).
