Electrical connections
! Ovens eq ipped with a three-pole power s pply
cable are designed to operate with alternating
c rrent at the voltage and freq ency indicated on
the data plate located on the appliance (see below).
Fitting the power supply cable
1. Open the terminal
board by inserting a
screwdriver into the
side tabs of the cover.
Use the screwdriver as
a lever by p shing it
down to open the cover
(see diagram).
2. Loosen the cable
clamp screw and
remove it, sing a
screwdriver as a lever
(see fig re).
3. Remove the wire
contact screws L-N-
, then fasten the wires
nder the screw heads,
respecting the colo r
code: Bl e (N), Brown
(L) and Yellow-Green
Verde ( ).
Connecting the supply cable to the mains
Install a standardised pl g corresponding to the

! The installer m st ens re that the correct electrical
connection has been made and that it is compliant
with safety reg lations.
Before connecting to the power s pply, make s re
that:
 The appliance is earthed and the pl g is
compliant with the law.
 The socket can withstand the maxim m power of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data
plate (see below).
 The voltage m st be in the range between the
val es indicated on the data plate (see below).
 The socket is compatible with the pl g of the
appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the
pl g, ask an a thorised technician to replace it.
Do not se extension cords or m ltiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power
s pply cable and the electrical socket m st be

! The first time yo se yo r appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maxim m
temperat re for at least half an ho r. Ens re that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may
prod ce a slightly npleasant odo r ca sed by the
b rning away of protective s bstances sed d ring
the man fact ring process.
Starting the oven
1. Select the desired cooking mode by t rning the
SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the desired temperat re with the
THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table
for cooking modes and the s ggested cooking
temperat res (see Cooking Modes).
3. When preheating is finished, the THERMOSTAT
indicator light will stay on: place the food in the
oven.
4. Yo may do the following d ring cooking:
- change the cooking mode by t rning the
SELECTOR knob.
- change the temperat re by t rning the
THERMOSTAT knob.
- stop cooking by t rning the SELECTOR knob to the
0 position.
! Never p t objects directly on the oven bottom to
avoid damaging the enamel coating.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperat re of the
oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that
blows o t air between the control panel and the oven
door.
! Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling
fan remains on ntil the oven has cooled down
s fficiently.

Cooking modes
Cooking modes
! A temperat re val e can be set for all cooking
modes between 60°C and Max, except for
 BARBECUE (recommended: set only to MAX
power level);
 GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
= TRA ITIONAL OVEN mode
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come
on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to
se one cooking rack only: if more than one rack is
sed, the heat will be distrib ted nevenly.
K BAKING mode
The rear heating element and the fan come on,
g aranteeing the distrib tion of heat delicately and
niformly thro gho t the oven. This mode is ideal for
baking and cooking temperat re sensitive foods
s ch as cakes that need to rise and to prepare
certain tartlets on 3 shelves sim ltaneo sly.
L FAST COOKING mode
The heating elements and the fan come on,
g aranteeing the distrib tion of heat consistently
and niformly thro gho t the oven.
Pre-heating is not necessary for this cooking mode.
This mode is especially recommended for cooking
pre-packed food q ickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The
best res lts are obtained if yo se one cooking
rack only.
> MULTI-COOKING mode
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circ lar),
as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat
remains constant thro gho t the oven, the air cooks
and browns food niformly. A maxim m of two racks
may be sed at the same time.
M PIZZA mode
The bottom and circ lar heating elements, as well as
the fan, will come on. This combination heats the
oven rapidly by prod cing a considerable amo nt of
heat, partic larly from the bottom element. If yo
se more than one rack sim ltaneo sly, switch the
position of the dishes halfway thro gh the cooking
process.
@ BARBECUE mode
The top heating element comes on.
The high and direct temperat re of the grill is
recommended for food that req ires high s rface
temperat re. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed.
A GRATIN mode
The top heating element, as well as the fan, will
come on. This combination of feat res increases the
effectiveness of the nidirectional thermal radiation
of the heating elements thro gh forced circ lation of
the air thro gho t the oven. This helps prevent food
from b rning on the s rface, allowing the heat to
penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this
mode with the oven door closed.
Practical cooking advice
! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 d ring fan-
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can b rn
temperat re sensitive foods.
! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes,
place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect
cooking resid es (fat and/or grease).
MULTI-COOKING
 Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that
req ires more heat on 2.
 Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack
on top.
BARBECUE
 Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in
the centre of the rack.
We recommend that yo set the maxim m power
level. The top heating element is reg lated by a
thermostat and may not always be on.
PIZZA MODE
 Use a light al mini m pizza pan. Place it on the
rack provided.
For a crispy cr st, do not se the dripping pan
(prevents cr st from forming by extending
cooking time).
 If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza
halfway thro gh the cooking process.

Maintenance and care
Switching the a liance off
Disconnect yo r appliance from the electricity s pply
before carrying o t any work on it.
Cleaning the appliance
 The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts as
well as the r bber seals may be cleaned sing a
sponge that has been soaked in l kewarm water and
ne tral soap. If these stains are diffic lt to remove, se
only specialised prod cts. After cleaning, rinse and
dry thoro ghly. Do not se abrasive powders or
corrosive s bstances.
 Ideally, the inside of the oven sho ld be cleaned after
each se, when it is still l kewarm. Use hot water and
detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not se
abrasive prod cts.
 The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery (even in yo r dishwasher).
 Never se steam cleaners or press re cleaners on the
appliance.
Cleaning the oven door
Clean the glass part of the oven door sing a sponge
and a non-abrasive cleaning prod ct, then dry thoro ghly
with a soft cloth. Do not se ro gh abrasive material or
sharp metal scrapers as these co ld scratch the s rface
and ca se the glass to crack.
To clean more thoro ghly, yo can remove the oven door.
1. Open the oven door f lly (see
diagram)
2. Lift p and t rn the small
levers located on the two hinges
(see diagram)
3. Grip the door on the two
external sides and close it
approximately half way.
P ll the door towards yo lifting it
o t of its seat (see diagram).
To replace the door, reverse this
seq ence.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals aro nd the oven periodically. If the
seals are damaged, please contact yo r nearest After-
sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend
not sing the oven ntil the seals have been replaced.
Replacing the light bulb
