USE OF APPLIANCE
Before the First Use of the Oven
Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the
oven.
Before first use, the oven should be heated
without food. During this time, an unpleasant
odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.
1. Remove the oven accessories.
2. Remove any adhesive labels or protective
films, if there are any.
3. Heat the oven the corresponding knob on
position “250” for about 45 min.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Clean the ceramic hob carefully before its first use.
Afterwards clean it regularly when it is just warm
or cold. Avoid continued burning of food or dirt
until it is solified.
Ceramic hobs are treated and cleaned the same
way as glass. Never use aggressive detergents
or sponges with abrasive surface. When you
use the ceramic hob for the first time it can
temporarely emit an odeur caused by a
vaporation of water in the isolation.
Clean the accessories with a soft detergent.
Rinse and dry carefully.
Rating Plate
The model number of your cooker can be found
on the rating plate on the lower front frame of
the cooker upon opening the door.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably
rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the
cooker is given on the rating plate.
About condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the
same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents
allow some of this steam to escape. However,
always stand back from the oven when
opening the oven door to allow any build up of
steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool
surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it
will condense and produce water droplets. This
is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.
To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
Use any ovenproof cookware, which will
withstand temperatures of 2500C.
Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly on the oven base.

CONTROLS
Oven Function Control Knob
Defrost – (NB: This is NOT a cooking
position). This position is intended to assist in
thawing of frozen foods.
Fan cooking – Thermaflow cooking; this
system will allow you to roast and bake at the
same time with very little flavour transference,
and on any shelf.
Grill and turn spit - The grill cannot be
used at the same time as the oven. The oven
door must be closed when grilling.
Bottom oven element - enables you to
finish off dishes on the bottom only.
Top oven element - enables you to finish
off dishes on the top only.
Conventional cooking – used the top and
bottom element; this function will enable you to
use your favourite recipes without having to
adapt the temperatures. It is necessary to pre-
heat the oven in this instance.
Caution
Do not place pans, dripping pans, biscuits pans
or aluminium foil directly on the base of the
oven. This could cause a heat build-up which
could affect the performance of the oven and
damage the oven enamel.
Thermostat Control Knob
By turning the oven control knob clockwise, you
select the cooking temperature.
Temperature selection starts at 50°C and will
reach approximately 250°C at the centre of the
oven.
The thermostat controlling the temperature is
totally variable so it is possible to select
temperatures between those marked.
The maxim setting is particularly suitable for
grilling.
Things to note
•Once the oven temperature has been
selected, the oven thermostat pilot light will
come on and remain on until the oven has
reached the correct setting; after that, it will
go on and off with the thermostat, showing
how the temperature is being maintained.
•The oven light will come on when the oven
function control knob is set.

9
USING THE FAN OVEN
The Fan Oven
The air inside the oven is heated by the element
around the fan situated behind the back panel.
The fan circulates hot air to maintain an even
temperature inside the oven.
The advantages of cooking with this function
are:
Faster Preheating
Because the fan oven quickly reaches
temperature, it is not usually necessary to
preheat the oven although you may find that you
need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes on cooking
times. For recipes, which require higher
temperatures, best results are achieved if the
oven is preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries,
scones, souffles, etc.
Lower Temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Remember to reduce temperatures by about
20- 25°C for your own recipes, which use
conventional cooking.
Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner
positions. This means that batches of the same
food can be cooked in the oven at the same
time. However, the top shelf may brown slightly
quicker that the lower one.
This is quite usual. There is no mixing of
flavours
between dishes .
How to Use the Fan Oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to
2. Turn the thermostat control knob to the
required temperature.
HINTS AND TIPS
Runner positions are not critical, but make sure
the shelves are evenly spread.
When cooking more than one dish in the fan
oven, place dishes centrally on the shelves
rather than several dishes on one shelf.
When the oven is full, you may need to allow
slightly longer cooking time.
A shelf may be placed on the floor of the oven.
Place dishes on a shelf in this position rather
than on the oven base, to allow air circulation
around the food.
When the oven is full of the same food, e.g.
equal trays of small cakes or equal size victoria
sandwich cakes, then they will be cooked in the
same time and removed from the oven together.
When different sizes of trays or types of food,
e.g. biscuits and cakes are cooked, they will not
necessarily be ready together.
The fan oven can be used to heat foods through
without thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies,
sausage rolls, and other small pastry items. Use
a temperature of 190-200°C and allow 20-40
minutes (depending on the quantity of food in
the oven).
Only experience will enable you to determine
the proper settings for your personal cooking
needs. The temperatures are intended as a
guide only. It may be necessary to increase or
decrease the temperature to suit your individual
requirements.
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness,
conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way
they transmit heat to the food inside them:
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware
and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and
underneath browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,
aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase
cooking and underneath browning.
Defrosting
The defrosting function allows you to defrost
frozen foods. The oven fan operates without
heat and circulates the air, at room temperature,
inside the oven. This increases the rate at which
defrosting takes place.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate
food which could be damaged by heat, e.g.
cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries,
bread and other yeast products.
HINTS AND TIPS
•Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or
plastic film to prevent drying out during
defrosting.
•Small or thin pieces of fish fillet or peeled
prawns, mince, liver and thin chops will
defrost in 1-2 hours. Ensure that they are
cooked or refrigerated immediately after
defrosting to maintain good foodhygiene.
•Place the food to be defrosted in a single
layer.
•And turn over half way through the defrosting
process, where possible.
•Place the frozen food a single layer where
possible, and turn it over half way through
the defrosting process.
•DO NOT leave food at room temperature
once it is defrosted. Cook raw food
immediately or store cooked food in the
fridge.
•Take care to follow the basic rules for
hygiene when handling fresh, frozen, raw
and cooked foods.

10
USING THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
When using this setting, heat comes from both
the top and bottom elements. This allows you to
cook on a single level and is particularly suitable
for dishes which require extra base browning
such as quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes
and hotpots which require extra top browning
also cook well in the conventional oven.
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to
cook without the fan in operation.
How to use the conventional oven
•Turn the oven function control knob to the
required cooking function
•Turn the thermostat control knob to the
required temperature.
Top oven element only
This function is suitable for finishing cooked
dishes, e.g. lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower
cheese etc.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-
baking pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be
used to finish off quiches or flans to ensure the
base pastry is cooked through.
Main pilot light
This light will illuminate when the oven function
control knob is set or the cooking zones are
functioning.
During use the appliance becomes hot.
Care should be taken to avoid touching
heating elements inside the oven.
Hints and Tips
There should always be at least 2.5cm between
the top of the food and the element. This gives
the best cooking results and allows room for rise
in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings, etc.
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread,
etc., place the tins or baking trays centrally
below element.
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf
andthere is sufficient room around the baking
tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the oven base and to help
reduce cleaning.
The material and finish of the baking tray and
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of
the food.
Enamelware, dark, or heavy utensils increase
base browning. Shiny aluminium or polished
steel trays reflect the heat away and give less
base browning.
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may
occur.
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a
baking tray as this will increase base browning
of the food.
For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a preheated oven.
Grilling
All grilling must be carried out with the
oven door closed .
To switch on the grill, turn the oven
function control knob to GRILL.
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift
the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as
fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on
the grill pan, if preferred.
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food.
Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling
to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and
fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep
them moist during cooking.
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top
runner position is used with the grid in its 'high'
position.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust
the heat setting and the shelf as necessary,
during cooking.
The food should be turned over during cooking,
as required.
NOTE: For safety in use, the grill element is
controlled by the thermostat. During
cooking, the grill cycles on and off to prevent
overheating.
Cooking time depends on the thickness of the
meat and not on its weight.

11
Rotisserie
When using the rotisserie, the accessible
parts of the appliance are hot and the
appliance should not be left unsupervised.
Take care that children do not play near it.
While the rotisserie is operating leave the door
closed. After use the rotisserie and its support
are hot, use oven gloves to remove food.
The rotisserie can be used for either spit
roasting meat or for kebabs and smaller pieces
of meat.
How to use the rotisserie
1. Slide the meat on the skewer, making sure
that the fork nearest the handle is in place
and that the meat is central.
2. Push on the second fork and tighten both
forks.
3. Fit the bracket on the shelf levels 3 and 2.
Push the skewer into the motor shaft in the
back panel and locate the handle end in the
support bracket.
4. Place the grill pan in a lower shelf position.
5. Remove the handle and close the door.
6. Select grill with the function control knob
and check that the spit is rotating.
7. When the food is cooked, switch off the grill
and refit the handle. Remove the skewer
from the motor, after releasing the front
support bracket. It is advisable to remove
the grill pan at the same time, to ensure that
any dripping fat is contained in the pan.
8. It is advisable to wear protective oven
gloves at all times when using the rotisserie,
as very high temperatures exist in the area
of the grill.
The maximum weight permitted on the
rotisserie is 4·5 kg.

COOKING EQUIPMENT
Specially tested cooking and frying pans for
ceramic hobs exist.The following advice should
be considered to achieve an optimal energy
consumption as well as to avoid that overboiling
food can be burnt onto the cooking zones.
Cooking pans with aluminium or copper
bottoms are unsuitable for use. These
materials can cause stains which can not be
removed anymore.
Bottom of pans:
Cooking and frying pans should have a flat and
solid base. A base with rough edges can scratch
and leave abrasion marks on the ceramic
surface! Ask for electric saucepans.
Size of pans:
Pan or pot diameters should be a little bit larger
than the diameter of the cooking zone.
Lid of pans:
A lid prevents heat to escape.
Note:
•Always place the pan first before you switch
on the cooking zone, otherwise unnecessary
energy is consumed.
•Do not deposit items on the hob’s surface.
•The cooking zone and the bottoms of
saucepans should be dry and clean. Thus you
save unnecessary cleaning work.
•Sugar (solid or liquid) as well as plastic
material should never get onto the hot surface
of the hob. If it does happen do not turn off the
cooking zone!
•Sugar, plastic or kitchen foil remains should
immediately be scraped off the hot cooking
zone with a scraper. If the cooking zone cools
down without being cleaned it could lead to
fissures and cracks in the ceramic surface.
•The ceramic hob surface is resistant to
extreme temperatures. Neither cold nor heat
can harm it. Punctiform impacts, e.g. by the
fall of a salt shaker, can cause fissures and
cracks. The maintenance remains the same
for glass and ceramic hobs. Never use
aggressive detergents or scouring powder
and sponges with abrasive surfaces.
Caution: As soon as any crack in the heating
surface becomes visible, disconnect the appliance
immediately from the supply.

Accessories delivered with the appliance
The following accessories are supplied with your
appliance :
•A turn spit made up of:
- 2 forks
- 1 spit
- 1 handle
- 1 spit support
•Shelf for placing dishes on (roast, pastry
mounds). The dish should be put in the middle
of the shelf to balance the weight.

•Roasting tray
It is used to collect juice when cooking in it,
place it on the shelf 2 from low.
If you do not use the roasting tray, remove it from
the oven.
In addition to the accessories supplied we
recommend you only use heatproof
dishes/pans (according to the manufacturer’s
instructions).
Removable drawer
The removable drawer is located underneath the
oven cavity.
During cooking the drawer may
become hot if the oven is in use for a long
period of time. Flammable materials such as
oven gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc.
should not be stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will
also become hot, therefore care should be taken
when removing these items from the drawer
whilst the oven is in use or still hot.
To opening
•Catch the drawer from bottom and pull it out.
•To remove the drawer , pull it out till the stop,
than lift it slowly and pull it out completely.
Reassemble the drawer following the same
procedure in reverse.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The oven should be kept clean at all
times. A build-up of fats or other
foodstuffs could result in a fire.
Before cleaning, ensure all control
knobs are in the OFF position, and
the appliance has cooled completely.
Before any maintenance or cleaning
can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the cooker from the
electricity supply.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your
oven, check that they are suitable and that their
use is recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should
NOT be used as they may dull the
surface finishes. A steam cleaner is not
to be used. Harsh abrasives should also
be avoided.
Ceramic glass
Important: Cleaners must not come into contact
with the ceramic glass when hot! All cleaners
must be removed with plenty of clean water after
cleaning as they may have a caustic effect when
the rings are next heated!
Do not use any aggressive cleaners, such as
e.g. grill or oven sprays, coarse scouring
cleaners or pan cleaners that cause scratches.
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each
use when it is hand warm or cold. By this means
you will avoid soiling becoming burnt on.
Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and
metallic shimmering discoloration with a
commercially available ceramic glass or
stainless steel cleaner, e.g. with "Stahl-Fix" or
"Vitroclen".
Light Soilage
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp
cloth and a little washing up liquid.
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. No residues
of cleaner must be left on the surface.
3. Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire
ceramic glass surface with a commercially
available ceramic glass cleaner such as
«Vitroclen».
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface with
plenty of clean water and rub dry with a
clean fluff-free cloth.
Stubborn Soilage
1. To remove food that has boiled over or burnt
on spots, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the
glass ceramic surface.
3. Remove soiling by sliding the scraper.
You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic
glass cleaners from your specialist retailers.
Burnt on Soilage
1. Remove burnt on sugar, melted plastic,
aluminium foil or other melted materials
immediately, while the hob is still hot, using
a glass scraper.
Important: When using the glass scraper on the
hot cooking zone, there is a risk of burns!
2. Clean the cooking surface as normal once it
is cold.
If the cooking zone has cooled down already
prior to the soilage being removed, warm it up
again for cleaning. Scratches or dark marks on
the ceramic glass surface, which have been
caused by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot
be removed. However, they do not impair the
function of the cooking surface.
As soon as any crack in the ceramic
glass surface becomes visible, disconnect
the appliance immediately from the supply to
avoid the possibility of electric shock.
The Hob Frame
Important! Do not put vinegar, lemons or scale
removers on the hob frame, otherwise mat spots
will appear.
1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little
washing up liquid.
2. Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe
off and rub dry.
External cleaning
We recommend for cleaning cleaners type
AXION or CIF that do not scratch the surface;
after that rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid
use of metall objects (knife, edge), steel wool or
nylon pads, abrasive or caustic products, or
diluents.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned
whilst the oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in
warm soapy water after each use. From time to
time it will be necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.
Oven Shelves and shelf support
To clean the oven shelves, and shelf support
soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn
marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad.
Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.

Grease Filter
When cooking meat, the grease filter must be
fitted over the oven fan by clipping it over the
vents in the back panel. This will prevent a built-
up of fat on the fan impeller. Do not use abrasive
materials to clean the seal. The grease filter is
dishwasher proof.
When cooking is completed and the oven has
cooled down, remove the filter by pushing the
protruding tongue on the filter upward.
Cleaning the oven door
For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it
is advisable to disassemble it in the following
way:
-Open the door completely.
-Turn the two locking parts on the hinge arms
to 170°;
-Partially close the door, to a 30oangle
-Lift the door and pull out
Refit the door by reversing the operation
described above.
