Introduction
To help remove the 'new' smell, heat the empty oven to maximum temperature for a minimum of two to three hours,
keeping the door/s closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (eg.open a window or use an extractor fan) and that
persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room
until the smell has ceased.
This odour is due to any temporary finish on oven linings and elements and any moisture absorbed by the insulation.
Note:When the oven is first used, an odour may be omitted - this will cease after a short period of use.
*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:
(a) Has been used solely in accordance with this booklet.
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate, attached to the
appliance.
(c) Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the
manufacturers authorised employee or agent.

The different functions and uses of the oven
Thevariousfunctionsincludedin thecookerare selectedby
operating the control devices located on the cooker control
panel.
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recom-
mend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting
and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing
in it, with the oven door shut.Then, open the oven door
and let the room air.The odour that is often detected dur-
ing this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is in-
stalled.
Attention:Onlyuse thebottomshelfoftheovenwhenusing
the rotisserie to cook (where present).For all other types of
cooking,neverusethebottomshelfandneverplaceanything
on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because
thiscould damagethe enamel.Alwaysplaceyour cookware
(dishes, aluminium foil, etc.etc.) on the grate provided with
the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.
The oven knobs
With these two controls you can select the different
functions of the oven and choose the cooking temperatu-
re suitable for the food you are preparing. The different
cooking functions are set up by operating the two knobs:
G- the selection knob
N- the thermostat knob
on the oven panel.
For anyselection-knob settingdifferentfrom idle,identified
bythe“0”, theovenlight turns on;the knob settingmarked
8permits turning on the oven light without any heating
element being switched on. When the oven light is on, it
means that the oven is in use, and it will remain on for the
entire time the oven is being used.
1. Static oven
- Knob “G” setting: a
- Knob “N” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max
The oven light turns on and the top and bottom heating
elements (resistors) switch on.The temperature, fixed by
the thermostat knob, is reached automatically and kept
constant by the thermostat control.This function permits
cooking and type of food thanks to excellent temperature
distribution.
2.The bottom heating element
- Knob “G” setting: y
- Knob “N” setting: anywhere between 50°C and Max
The oven light turns on and so does the bottom heating
element.The temperature, fixed by the thermostat knob,
isreachedautomatically and keptconstant.This setting is
recommended for finishing the cooking of foods (placed
inpans)that are welldone ontheoutside butstill not done
insideor fordesserts coveredwithfruit orjamwhichrequire
a light browning on top. Note that this function does not
permitreachingthe maximum(250°C) temperature inside
for cooking foods always on this oven setting unless the
foods are cakes which only require temperatures below
or equal to 180°C.
3.The grill
- Knob “G” setting: F
- Knob “N” setting: 180°C
The oven light turns on and so does the infra-red ray grill.
The rather high and direct temperature of the grill permits
browning the outside of meats immediately thus keeping
in the juices and assuring tenderness.
4.The double grill
- Knob “G” setting: d
- Knob “N” setting: 180°C
The oven light turns on and so does the double heating
element of the grill. This grill is larger than the average
and has a completely new design: cooking performance
is increased 50%.The double grill makes sure that even
the corners are touched by heat.
Important: When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the
lower levels (see cooking table). To catch grease or fat
and prevent smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom
rack level.
Important: when using the grill, the oven door must
be left partly open.
Caution: Accesible parts will become hot when the
grill is in use. Children should be kept away.
The oven-operating pilot lamp (L)
Signals when the oven is heating.It switches off when the
temperature inside the oven reached the temperature
selected by the knob.At this point the alternate turning on
and turning off of this light indicates that the thermostat is
operatingcorrectly tokeep theoventemperatureconstant.
The cook-top electric plate control knobs (I)
The cookers may be equipped with standard, fast and
automatic electric plates in various combinations (the fast
plates distinguished from the others by a red dot in the
centre, the automatic ones by a round aluminium disk at
the centre.
To avoid heat dispersion and damage to the plates,
recommend using cooking vessels with flat bottoms in
diameters which are not smaller than the plate diameter.
Table shows the correspondence between the position
indicated on the knobs and the use for which the plates
advised.
Before using the hot plates for the first time, you
should heat them at maximum temperature for
approximately 4 minutes,without anypans.During this
initial stage, their protective coating hardens and
reaches its maximum resistance.
The green pilot lamp (H)
This lights up when an electric plate is turned on.
Attention
Avoid the children touch the oven door because it is
very hot during the cooking.

Storage recess below the oven (only a few models)
Below the oven a recess can be used to contain cooking pans
andcookeraccessories.Moreover,duringovenoperation,itmay
be used to keep food warm.To open the storage is necessary
turnit downwards.
Caution: this storage recess must not be used to store
inflammablematerials.

The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow
youto cookanytype offood inthe best possibleway.With
time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile
cooking appliance and the following directions are only a
guidelinewhichmaybe variedaccordingto yourown per-
sonal experience.
Baking cakes
The oven should always be warm before putting in cakes
wait till the end of preheating (about 10-15 min.). Cake-
baking temperatures are normally around 160°C/200°C.
Do not open the oven door during the baking process as
this could cause the cake to sink.In general:
Cooking fish and meat
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish use low
temperatures. (150°C-175°C). When red meat must be
superficially well-cooked but succulent inside, it is
advisable to start with a high temperature (200-220°C)
for a short time, and then to reduce it at a later point.
Generally speaking, the more meat there is, the lower the
temperature and the longer the cooking time should
be.Place the meat in the centre of the grid and put a spill-
tray underneath to catch grease drips. Insert the grid so
that it is in the middle of the oven.If more heat from below
is required, use the 1° bottom shelf.
To grill
When using any of the grilling modes, it is recommended
that the thermostat knob be turned to the highest setting,
as it is the most efficient way to use the grill (which
utilizes infrared rays).If necessary, however, the
thermostat can be set to lower temperatures for grilling.
When using the grill functions, place the grid on the
lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and
grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and
smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st
oven rack from the bottom.
Important: when using the grill,the oven door must
be left partly open.Table 1 includes the
recommended temperatures, cooking times and
positions for you to obtain the best results when
cooking.
Cooking advice
Pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the
cooking time.
Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the
outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase
the cooking time.
The pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of
flour.
Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and
increase the cooking time.
