Please note:
Your appliance has been tted
with a cooling fan to achieve
optimum efciency of the
controls and to ensure lower
surface temperatures are
maintained.
The cooling fan motor
switches ON/OFF depending
on temperature.
Depending on cooking
temperatures and times, the
cooling fan may run on even
after the appliance oven has
been switched off.
The duration of this time
is dependent on previous
cooking temperature and
duration.

USING THE PRESS-AND-TURN CONTROL KNOBS (SOME MODELS ONLY)
The control knobs are ush-mounted in the control panel.
Use them as follows:
a. Press lightly on the knob (gure 1.8A);
b. The knob will extend outwards as illustrated in gure 1.8B.
c. Turn the knob to the required position (gure 1.8C).
d. When you have nished cooking, turn the knob back to the “0”, “O” or “ ” (off) position
and press it (gure 1.8D) so that it stays ush with the control panel again (gure 1.8F).
IMPORTANT:
Never press down the knob when it is not in the “0”, “O” or “ ”(off)position(gure
1.8E).

• Upper element, 1000 W (at 230V)
• Lower element, 1300 W (at 230V)
• Grill element, 2000 W (at 230V)
NOTE:
Upon rst use, it is advisable to operate
the oven at the maximum temperature for
60 minutes in the position 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 “TRADITIONAL GRILLING” and
“USE OF THE GRILL”.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the natural
convection oven are obtained in the
following ways:

FAN WITH GRILL MODELS
GENERAL FEATURES
The heating and cooking in electrical hot
air ovens take place by forced convection.
The two elements which make this process
take place are:
• Grill element, 2000 W (at 230V)
• Circular element, 2200 W (at 230V)
NOTE:
Upon rst use, it is advisable to operate
the oven at the maximum temperature for
60 minutes in the position 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 “TRADITIONAL GRILLING” and
“USE OF THE GRILL”.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the fan oven are
obtained in the following ways:
a. 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.
b. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infrared
grill element.
c. by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the fan
only function without heat.

browning is necessary to keep the juices
in, i. e. veal steak, steak, hamburger, etc.
CONVECTION COOKING
WITH VENTILATION
The upper and lower heating elements and
the fan motor are switched on.

motor are switched on.
The heat coming from the top is diffused by
forced convection.
The temperature must be regulated
between 50°C and 150°C with the
thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
To keep foods hot after cooking.
To slowly heat already cooked foods.
HOT AIR COOKING
The circular heating element and the fan
motor are switched on.

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 sh,
etc.
DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS
Only the oven fan is switched on.
To be used with the thermostat knob in the
“0”, “ ” or “ ” (off) position because the
other positions have no effect.
The defrosting is done by simple ventilation
without heat.
Plurifunction models only: Set the
function selector knob to . With the
thermostat knob in the “0”, “ ” or “ ” (off)
position only the oven fan is switched on.
Recommended for:
To rapidly defrost frozen foods; 1 kilogram
requires about one hour.
The defrosting times vary according to the
quantity and type of foods to be defrosted.
MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE
AFTER COOKING OR SLOWLY
HEATING FOODS
The upper and circular heating elements
connected in series and the fan motor
are switched on. The heat is diffused
by forced convection with the most part
being produced by the upper element.The
temperature must be regulated between
50°C and 140°C with the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
To keep foods hot after cooking.
To slowly heat already cooked foods.

20
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.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary
to remember:
• that it is advisable to maintain a
temperature between 180 and 200°C.
• that the cooking time depends on the
quantity and the type of foods.
USE OF THE GRILL
Leave to warm up for approximately 5
minutes with the door closed.
Place the food inside positioning the rack
as near as possible to the grill.
Insert the drip pan under the rack to collect
the cooking juices.
GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”
Grilling may be done by selecting grill+fan
setting with the function selector knob,
because the hot air completely envelops
the food that is to be cooked.
Set the thermostat knob and after having
preheated the oven, simply place the food
on the grid.
Close the door and let the oven operate
until grilling is done.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the end
of the cooking time gives the golden “au
gratin” effect.
COOKING ADVICE
STERILIZATION
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in
full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in
the following way:
a. Set the switch to position or .
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.
COOKING DIFFERENT DISHES AT
THE SAME TIME
With the function selector in position or
, 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 avours
mixing.
The only precautions required are the
following:
• The cooking temperatures must be
as close as possible with a maximum
difference of 20 - 25°C between the
different 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.
REGENERATION
Set the switch to position and the
Always grill with the oven
door closed.
It is recommended that you do not grill
for longer than 30 minutes at anyone
time.
Attention: The oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
The external parts of the oven become
hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
NOTE: DEPENDING ON YOUR
MODEL, YOUR OVEN MAY ONLY
HAVE SOME OF THESE FUNCTIONS
(SEE CHAPTER 2 AND TABLE AT
PAGE NO. 17).
