floor.
Disconnect the device from the electric power supply.
-when the device is not used,
-in case of anomalies during operation,
-before cleaning.
HOT SURFACE! Burn hazard!
Follow the safety instructions listed in order to avoid the hazard:
During operation, the surface of the device becomes very hot!
Please keep children away from the device.
Do not touch the hot surface of the device! Hold the device
during operation only at the handles and control elements
envisaged for this.
Even after switching off the surface of the device and the
cooking space as well as food in the containers remain hot for
quite some time. In order to take out the food from the cooking
space, always apply thermal gloves.

5. Installation and operation
5.1 Installation
CAUTION!
Any installation, connection and maintenance work related to the device must
be performed by the qualified and certified technician in accordance with the
applicable international, national and local regulations.
Positioning
Discard the complete packing material after unpacking the device.
Place the device on an even, stable, dry and waterproof and heat-resistent surface.
Never place the device on an inflammable surface.
Never place the device in wet or damp locations.
Place the device so that it is easily accessible, leaving enough space to freely service
the device and ensure appropriate air circulation.
Never place the device directly against walls, low walls, furniture or other objects
which are made of flammable material. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm at the
sides and at the rear from walls and other objects. Take into account the applicable
fire protection regulations.

- 37 -
If keeping the above mentioned distance is impossible, apply appropriate safety
measures (e.g. heat-resistant foil), which will ensure keeping the wall’s temperature
within the safe range.
Place the device so that the plug is easily accessible so as to quickly disconnect the
device if the need arises.
Before the first use, remove the protective foil from the device. Remove the foil slowly
not to leave glue residues. Remove possible glue residues with appropriate solvent.
CAUTION!
Never remove the type plate and warning signs from the device.
Connection
DANGER! Electric shock hazard!
The device can cause injuries due to improper installation!
Before installation and connecting the local power grid
specification should be compared with that of the device
(see rating plate). Connect the device only in case of
compliance!
The power supply circuit with the socket must be protected by the fuse of at least 16A.
Connect the device directly to a single grounded socket. Do not use any power bar or
multiple socket.
5.2 Operation
5.2.1 Preparation of the device
Before the first use, pre-heat the device without any food to remove any production
residues. To do so, turn the temperature knob to its highest position of 250 °C and
the time knob to 60 minutes. Follow the instructions included in section 5.2.4
“Setting“.
In this time, fumes or unpleasant odour may be released from the convection oven
and that is why the room where the oven is located should be provided with
ventilation.

- 38 -
The device should be cold before cleaning.
Before the start, clean the device exterior and interior with a soft, damp cloth and
neutral cleaning agent. Follow the instructions in section 6 “Cleaning and
maintenance”.
5.2.2 Tips and guidelines
Place food in containers evenly to obtain uniform result (fig.2).
When using several trays or containers, provide enough distance to ensure
adequate air circulation (fig. 3).
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
For baking, do not use trays higher than 20 mm and leave space beween the trays
to prevent baked products from sticking together.
Season food before baking, taste during preparation and further season if
necessary.
Time and energy can be saved using the remaining heat in the convection oven to
prepare other foods when the device is still hot.
Add as little fat as possible to the food to avoid fat spilling.
The spilling food should be cooked in the lower part of the convection oven.
If you have noticed that the food is too dark, reduce the temperature. If the food is
too light in colour or it is not getting brown, increase the set temperature.
When cooking, open the convection oven door as seldom as possible to avoid
temperature loss.
Place the food into the convection oven only when the set temperature has been
reached.
Carefully select baking time, temperature and level where the containers with food are
to be placed. Also, a type of baking greatly affects the final result. Follow the recipe
instructions.

- 39 -
Suitable accessories
When cooking food in the convection oven, use the supplied baking tray or other
baking trays, baking tins or tart pans, suitable for high temperature, that may be
placed on the oven grid.
Using smaller baking tins, for baked products or tarts, better results are achieved.
Use the oven grid also when preparing meat (e.g. schnitzel, sausages, roast sausage)
or frozen pizza. Slide the baking tray underneath the oven grid to collect juices, pieces,
etc.
Select suitable accessories to ensure uniform heat distribution in the containers and
device.
NOTE!
Use only heat-resistant baking trays or tins. Follow the manufacturer
instructions!

5.2.4 Settings
Functions:
The convection oven is provided with the following functions that may be selected with
the function knob.
Device switch on / interior lighting switch on
Top heat and bottom heat
For cooking a variety of food; ideal for yeast cake, cakes,
pizza, roasts, etc.
Bottom heat
For baking cookies, cakes, etc.
Top heat
For browning, for example: lasagne, pasta or vegetables
Grill function
For cooking fish of small to medium thickness and
bread toasts.
Grill function with fan
For cooking thick pieces of fish and large dishes
Bottom heat and top heat with fan
For quick and even cooking of delicate food (e.g. cookies
and cakes)
Bottom heat with circulating air
This setting allows fast heating and heating-up, thus
cooking is faster.
Circulating air
For baking similar or different food products placed on
several guiding rails (up to 3 levels)

- 41 -
Temperature
Temperature (from 25 °C –max., approx. 250 °C) is set continuosly by the temperature
knob in 25 °C steps. On the right, next to the temperature knob there is the orange
heating control lamp which is on during the heating-up phase and comes off when the
set temperature has been reached.
Baking time (Fig. 5)
The device is provided with the manual timer. It is activated by the time knob and may be
set in the range 0 –90 minutes or at the continuous mode.
Baking time can be set in 5 minutes steps.
Turn the time knob by its full turn clockwise to activatecontrol clock (❶❷). Then, turn
the time knob anti clockwise and set the desired baking time (❸❹).
The time knob turns automatically from the set baking time to “0” (❺❻). When the set
time has run out, an audio signal will sound and the device will automatically switch off.
If the user does not wish to select time setting, they should turn the time knob to the
setting to use the device in the continuous mode.

5.2.5 Food preparation
Baking in the convection oven is performed by even distribution of air in the cooking
chamber. The air is heated by the heating elements and it is distributed with the fan.
The advantage of the convection oven is that different food products may be prepared
at the same time (when the baking temperature is the same) and different flavours do
not mix.
Switch the device on with the function knob (C, fig. 4) turning it clockwise to the
desired setting. Follow the instruction included in section 5.2.4 “Settings”/ Functions.
The interior lighting turns on and the operational control lamp comes on (D).
Set the desired temperature (25 °C - 250 °C) with the temperature knob (A). The
heating control lamp comes on (B). When the set temperature has been reached, the
heating element is off and the orange heating control lamp (B) comes off.
Set the desired baking time. Follow the instructions included in section 5.2.4
“Settings”/ Baking time and the recipe.
Place the food in the convection oven cooking chamber.
When the set time has run out, an audio signal will sound and the device will
automatically switch off.
Remove the prepared food.
WARNING! Risk of burns!
The device surfaces and cooking chamber, as well as food
in containers are very hot during the device operation and
remain hot for some time after the operation has been
finished.
Always wear thermal insulating gloves when removing
food from the oven cooking chamber.
Take extra care when opening the door of the convection
oven as hot steam may be released.

- 43 -
6. Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING!
Before cleaning, turn all knobs to “0” position and
disconnect the device from the power supply (unplug!).
