GENERAL FEATURES
As its name indicates, this is an oven
that presents particular features from an
operational point of view.
In fact, it is possible to insert 8 differ-
ent programs to satisfy every cooking
need.
The 8 positions, thermostatically con-
trolled, are obtained by 4 heating ele-
ments which are:
- Lower element 1300 W
- Upper element 1000 W
- Grill element 2000 W
- Circular element 2200 W
N TE:
Upon first use, it is advisable to oper-
ate the oven at the maximum tempera-
ture (thermostat knob on position 225)
for 60 minutes in the position and
to eliminate possible traces
of grease on the heating elements.
Repeat the operation for another 15
minutes with the grill element on as
explained in the chapters GRILLI G and
USE OF THE GRILL.
WA NING:
The door is hot, use the handle.
During use the appliance becomes hot.
Care should be taken to avoid touch-
ing heating elements inside the oven.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
How to use the oven 2
PERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the 8-FU C-
TIO oven are obtained in the following
ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper
and lower heating elements.
b. by forced convection
A fan sucks in the air contained in the
oven, which circulates it through the
circular heating element and then
forced back into the oven by the fan.
Before the hot air is sucked back
again by the fan to repeat the
described cycle, it envelops the food
in the oven, provoking a complete
and rapid cooking. It is possible to
cook several dishes simultaneously.
c. by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and
lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
d. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red
grill element.
e. by radiation and ventilation
The radiated heat from the infra red
grill element is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
f. by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the
fan only function without heat.

THERM STAT KN B (fig. 2.1)
To turn on the heating elements of the
oven, set function selector knob to the
required position and the thermostat
knob to the desired temperature.
To set the temperature, turn the ther-
mostat control knob indicator mark to
the required temperature.
The elements will turn on or off auto-
matically which is determined by the
thermostat.
The operation of the heating elements is
signalled by a light placed on the con-
trol panel.

tion and the temperature must be reg-
ulated between 50°C and MAX position
with the thermostat knob.
It is necessary to preheat the oven
before introducing the foods to be
cooked.
Recommended for:
For foods which require the same cook-
ing temperature both internally and
externally, i. e. roasts, spare ribs,
meringue, etc.

DEFR STING FR ZEN F DS
Only the oven fan is on.
To be used with the thermostat knob in
the off “●” position because the other
positions have no effect.
The defrosting is done by simple venti-
lation without heat.
Recommended for:
To rapidly defrost frozen foods; 1 kilo-
gram requires about one hour.
The defrosting times vary according to
the quantity and type of foods to be
defrosted.
H T AIR C KING

tion and the temperature must be reg-
ulated between 50°C and MAX position
with the thermostat knob.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven.
Recommended for:
For foods that must be well done on the
outside and tender or rare on the inside,
i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole
fish, etc.
The external parts of the oven
become hot during operation.
Keepchildren well out of reach.
C KING ADVICE
STERILIZATI N
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in
full and hermetically sealed jars, is done
in the following way:
a. Set the switch to position .
b. Set the thermostat knob to position
185 °C and preheat the oven.
c. Fill the grill pan with hot water.
d. Set the jars into the grill pan making
sure they do not touch each other
and the door and set the thermostat
knob to position 135 °C.
When sterilization has begun, that is,
when the contents of the jars start to
bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.
REGENERATI N
Set the switch to position and the
thermostat knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet
with a few drops of water and put into
the oven for about 10 minutes.
R ASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is neces-
sary to remember:
– that it is advisable to maintain a tem-
perature between 180 and 200 °C.
– that the cooking time depends on the
quantity and the type of foods.

10
C KING DIFFERENT DISHES AT
THE SAME TIME
With the function selector in position
, the ventilated oven allows you to cook
different types of food at the same time.
Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked
together without the smells and flavours
mixing.
The only precautions required are the
following:
– The cooking temperatures must be as
close as possible with a maximum dif-
ference of 20° - 25°C between the dif-
ferent foods.
– Different dishes must be placed in the
oven at different times according to
the cooking time required for each
one. This type of cooking obviously
provides a considerable saving on
time and energy.
GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”
Grilling may be done by selecting
grill+fan setting with the function
selector knob, because the hot air com-
pletely envelops the food that is to be
cooked.
Set the thermostat knob between 50°C
and 200°C max and after having pre-
heated the oven, simply place the food
on the grid.
Close the door and let the oven oper-
ate until grilling is done.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the
end of the cooking time gives the gold-
en “au gratin” effect.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
It is recommended that you do not
grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
USE F THE GRILL
Set the switch to position and the
thermostat knob between 50°C and
200°C max.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5
minutes with the door closed.
Introduce the food to be cooked, posi-
tioning the rack as close to the grill as
possible.
The dripping pan should be placed
under the rack to catch the cooking
juices and fats.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Grilling with the oven door closed and
do not for longer than 30 minutes at
any one time.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
