OVEN CLEANING
CLEANING SAFETY
Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. Clean appliance with
caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or clothe is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
SURFACE CLEANING
This is easily done using a damp cloth and a non-abrasive detergent, wipe using a soft dry cloth. For stainless steel parts
with stubborn soils, use only plastic scrubbing pad or a sponge with vinegar and warm water. For Oven cooking cavity
cleaning, follow the same procedure mentioned above, but to ease the cleaning you may start cleaning when the cooking
cavity is still warm enough to be touched.
OVEN DOOR: To remove and replace the Oven Door, please follow procedures here below;
REMOVING OVEN DOOR:
Fully open the oven door. – Raise the U-clip over the hook on each of the hinges to the “locked” position, see figure 5
and 6. This will prevent the hinge from snapping closed when the door is removed. – Grasp the door by the sides toward
the back. – Raise the front of the door several centimetres (there will be some spring resistance to overcome because of
the hinge being locked). – When the front of the door is high enough, you will be able to lift the hinges to clear the
indents. – Pull the hinges out of the slots in the oven front frame.
TO REPLACE THE OVEN DOOR:
Grasp the sides of the door at the centre and inert the ends of the hinges into the slots in the oven front frame as far as
they will go, see figure 5 and 6. – With the door open all the way, lower the two locking clips. – Raise the oven door
and make sure that it fits evenly with the front sides.
WARNING. Never release the U-clip levers when the door is off. Do not close the hinges. Without the weight of the
door, the powerful springs will snap the hinges closed with great force.
CAUTION: Do not place excessive weight on or stand on an open oven door. This could break the door or injure the
user. Also, do not attempt to open or close door or operate oven until door is properly replaced.
REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT
WARNING; To prevent electrical shock and/or personal injury read follow this procedure:
Before replacing the light bulb, be sure the electric power is turned off at the circuit breaker.
Be sure the oven and light bulb are cool. Then remove light cover A by unscrewing it. Figure 7.
Do not touch hot bulb with a damp cloth as this may cause the bulb to break.
Replace light bulb with a 25 W – 230 V AC appliance bulb only. Figure 7.
If the light cover is damaged or broken, do not use the oven until a new cover is in place.
Do not operate the oven unless the light cover is securely in position.

OVEN TEMPERATURE THERMOSTAT SWITCH: Please look at Figure 15.
This control allows you to choose the desired Oven Cooking Temperature, for all function modes. The elements will
turn on and off to maintain oven cooking temperature.
OVEN FUNCTION SELECTOR SWITCH: Please look at Figure 16.
This control allows you to choose the desired Oven function mode. The following illustration gives an overview of what
happens in the oven with each mode setting. It also explains which element heats up for each specific mode. The lower
and circular elements are concealed under the floor and behind back wall of the oven respectively. The elements will
turn on and off to maintain the oven temperature.
OVEN LIGHT ;
Use this setting to turn on Oven light, light also remains on in all other modes.
GRILL ;
Use this setting for grilling any food other than meat, e.g. - toast, crumpets, melting cheese etc. The inner top element
will radiate intense heat to give excellent top browning or searing.
CONVENTIONAL UPPER ROAST ;
Use this setting for top roasting. This intensive heat is best for roasting less tender meats.
CONVENTIONAL LOWER ROAST ;
Use this setting for bottom roasting. This intensive heat is best for roasting less tender meats
CONVENTIONAL BAKE ;
Use this setting for standard baking and roasting. The bottom and top elements heat up the air.
THERMOWAVE FAN ROAST ;
Use this setting for Baking and Roasting on one rack. The bottom and top elements heat up. For even heating and faster
cooking with circulation assisted by the convection fan. The result is a drier, crisper exterior that seals in the interior
juices. It is perfect for roasting tender meats in an uncovered low-sided pan.
TRADITIONAL FAN ROAST ;
Use this setting for delicate foods and for baking breads and cakes. Use also when baking large quantities of food on
more than one oven rack. Even heating and speeding up the circulation of heated air throughout the oven cavity is
obtained by the combination of circular convention element and fan.
DEFROST ;
Use this setting to defrost frozen food by speeding up natural air circulation.
FAN GRILL ;
Use this setting to combine the intense heat from the inner top element with the circulation assisted by the convection
fan for all meat grilling. This air circulation crisps the exterior surface and retains inner moisture in thick cuts of meat.
GRILL USE
Set selector switch to Grilling mode and turn the thermostat knob to maximum temperature. Allow a period of time for
preheating the oven cavity before broiling food.
When using the grill the door must always be slightly open (about 15° first stop) and the deflector must be fitted into the
clips provided under the control panel to protect the knobs. If the deflector is not used this could cause deterioration of
the control panel and of the knobs. Ensure that the deflector has cooled down before removing it.
ATTENTION: when the grill is operating the accessible parts can get very hot. It is advisable to keep children at
a safe distance.

SELF-CLEANING: AUTOMATIC CLEANING;
Your oven is supplied with an automatic self-cleaning system for oven cooking cavity. This self-cleaning system eliminates all cleaning
problems such as internal cleaning manual work and the use of detergents.
Left over soil from food cooking on oven cavity walls are burned out by heat with a temperature between 450 0C and
500 0C for a minimum time of 90 minutes, short cycle. Because of oven high temperature during self-cleaning
operation, the appliance is manufactured using a special isolation material as well as a more powerful cooling fan in
order to preserve internal components and furniture surface conditions.
Oven door is assembled with three tempered glasses, of which internal and middle glasses are Heat Reflecting type of
glass. Forced fresh air is ducted through the door between external and internal glasses to cool down door external
surface temperature.
Oven door automatically locks during self-cleaning cycle because of the high temperature, to prevent burns caused by
accidental door opening. Also, electrical power to appliance is automatically cut-off in case of oven malfunction for
safety. Self-cleaning operation produces fumes and bad odours, but are eliminated through a catalysed unit within the
appliance. After self-cleaning soil may leave a light grey, powder ash which can be removed with a damp sponge at the
end of the cycle and with a cool oven.
Before activating the automatic self-cleaning system, consider the following precautions:
- Oven cooking cavity must be empty of any accessory such as tray and racks.
- Remove heavy soil.
- Check for oven door lock
- Make sure thermostat knob is in the “zero” position.
- In case there is a cooktop above the oven, all gas burners must be off during self-cleaning operation.
On first self-cleaning operation, bad odours are possible caused by burning tool lubricants. This problem will disappear
gradually after a few self-cleaning cycles.
SELF-CLEANING CYCLE MODE: Position selector switch knob on self-cleaning symbol .
Self-cleaning cycle starts automatically with a minimum period of 90 minutes, in case of increasing self-cleaning cycle
time because of heavy soil, press push button with Csymbol together with push button with + symbol; on electronic
programmer. The maximum self-cleaning cycle time that can be selected is 120 minutes.
CAUTION: The appliance is manufactured with a safety device that locks the oven door when inside temperature
reaches 300 0C; once the safety device locks the door an indicator light with symbol will go on. The oven door
will be unlocked once inside temperature has decrease under 300 0C at the end of self-cleaning cycle.
Door lock indicator light will go off as soon as the safety device unlocks oven door. At the end of self-cleaning
cycle, cooling fan will keep on working till oven will cool down even though knob is placed in the “zero”.
Caution: During self-cleaning cycle, access oven components and surface may become very hot; therefore, keep
children at a safe distance. At the end of self-cleaning cycle and when the oven has cooled down completely, wipe the
inside with a damp cloth to remove left over powder.
RACK PLACEMENT FOR SPECIFIC FOODS:
1) Frozen pies, large roast, turkey, angel food cakes, thick well-done meat cuts; rack position is 1st or 2nd rack guide

Supplement - Roasting tips
•We recommend roasting meat and fish roasting in the oven from a
weight of 1 kg
• In general the CONVENTIONAL function is suitable very lean meat, fish
and game
• For all other types of meat we recommend roasting with THERMOWAVE
FAN FORCED function or FAN GRILL (particularly poultry), if roasting
meat without any other type of food in the oven at the same time
• If you wish to roast meat with other dishes at the same time, use the
TRADITIONAL FAN FORCED function
• The cooking time required is dependent on the type and quality of the
meat
• To stop juices that exude from the meat burning onto to dishes, we
recommend adding a little water in the roasting dish
• Turn the roast after approx. 2/3 of the cooking time
