from below, use the low shelf positions.
When Using the Grill
Use the "Grill" mode, place the food in the centre of the
grill pan, situated on the 3rd or 4th shelf from the bottom.
BakingCakes
When baking cakes, always preheat the oven. Make
sureyouwait until the oven has preheated thoroughly (the
redoven indicator light "E" willgoout).Donotopen the
ovendoor duringbakingtoprevent thecakefromdropping.
Ingeneral,if:
Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and
increase the cooking time.
Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
Cooking Advice
When cooking in the oven, use only one baking tray or
shelf at a time. Select an upper or lower shelf position
based on whether the dish needs more or less heat from
the top.
Preheating
Ifthefoodbeingcookedneedstogointoapreheated

foods),we recommend youwaituntilpreheating is over,
whichis indicated by theredovenindicatorlight “E”going
out,beforeaddingfood.
CookingFish and Meat
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature
settings from 180 °C to 200 °C.
For redmeat that should bewelldoneon the outside while
tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with
ahigh temperaturesetting (200°C-220°C)fora shorttime,
then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature
setting.Placethemeatonthe centre of the shelf and place

Installation
The appliance must be installed only by a qualified
person in compliance with the instructions provided.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for improper
installationwhich mayharmpersonsand animals anddam-
ageproperty.
Important: The power supply to the appliance must be
cut off before any adjustments or maintenance work is
done on it.
Installation of Built-in Ovens
Inorderto ensure that the built-inappliance functions prop-
erly, the cabinet containing it must be appropriate. The
figurebelowgivesthe dimensions of the cut-out for instal-
lation under the counter or in a wall cabinet unit.
In order to ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of
the cabinet unit must be removed. Installing the oven so
that it rests on two strips of wood is preferable.If the oven
rests on a continuous, flat surface, there must be an ap-
erture of at least 45 x 560 mm.
Thepanelsoftheadjacentcabinetsmustbemadeofheat-
resistantmaterial.In particular,cabinets with aveneerex-
terior must be assembled with glues which can withstand
temperatures of up to 100 °C.
In compliance with current safety standards, contact with
the electrical parts of the oven must not be possible once
it has been installed.
All parts which ensure the safe operation of the appliance
must be removable only with the aid of a tool.
For the correct centring of your appliance, position the 4
tabs on the sides of the oven in correspondence with the
4 holes on the perimeter of the frame. In particular, if the
cabinet side panel:
•is 20 mm thick:the removable part of the tab must be
removed (Fig.A);
•is 18 mm thick: use the first groove, which is factory-
set (Fig. B);
•is 16 mm thick:use the second groove (Fig.C)
Fig.A Fig. B
Fig.C
To fasten the oven to the cabinet, open the door of the
oven and attach it by inserting the 4 wood screws into the
4 holes located on the perimeter of the frame.
