2 - General Appliance and Oven Safety Instructions
Safety for the Oven
• Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.
• Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of oven.
• The heating elements may be hot even though they are dark
in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to
cause burns.
• During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact the heating elements or the
interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become
hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are
(identification of surfaces - for example, oven vent openings
and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows
of oven doors).
• The trim on the top and sides of the oven door may become
hot enough to cause burns.
• Use care when opening the door. Open the door slightly
to let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing
food.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure
may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
• Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is
cool. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let
pot holder contact the hot heating elements.
• Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holder
touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth.
Safety for the Self-Cleaning Oven
• Confirm that the door locks and will not open once both
selectors are in CLEAN position and the door lock icon
appears. If the door does not lock, turn the cook mode
selector to OFF and do not run Self-Clean. Phone for Service.
• Do not clean the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal.
Care should be taken not to rub, damage, move or remove
the door gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven liner protective
coatings of any kind in or around any part of the oven.
• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, oven
racks (only when not made of porcelain), other utensils and
excess soft spillage.
WARNING
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure
to substances which are known by the State of California to
cause cancer or reproductive harm.
The elimination of soil during self-cleaning generates some by-
products which are on this list of substances.
To minimizeexposure tothesesubstances, alwaysoperate this
oven according to the instructions in this manual and provide
good ventilation to the room during and immediately after
self-cleaning the oven.

3 - Cooking with the Convection Oven
In a conventional oven, the heat sources cycle on and off to
maintain an average temperature in the oven cavity.
As the temperature gradually rises and falls, gentle air currents
are produced within the oven. This natural convection tends
to be inefficient because the currents are irregular and slow.
In this convection system, the heat is “conveyed” by a fan that
provides continuous circulation of the hot air.
This European Convection system provides state-of-the-art
engineering andadvanceddesign tocreatethe finestconvection
oven. In standard convection ovens, a fan simply circulates the
hot air around the food. The system is characterized by the
combination of an additional heating element located around
the convection fan and the venting panel that distributes heated
air in three dimensions: along the sides, the top and the full
depth of the oven cavity. This European Convection system
aids in maintaining a more even oven temperature throughout
the oven cavity.
The circulating air aids in speeding up the baking process
and cooks the food more evenly. By controlling the movement
of heated air, convection cooking produces evenly browned
foods that are crispy on the outside yet moist inside. Convection
cooking works best for breads and pastries as well as meats
and poultry. Air-leavened foods like angel food cakes, soufflés
and cream puffs rise higher than in a conventional oven. Meats
stay juicy and tender while the outside is flavourful and crisp.
By using European Convection, foods can be cooked at a
lower temperature and cooking times can be shorter.
When using this mode, the standard oven temperature should
be lowered by 25°F (15°C).
Foods requiring less cooking time should be checked slightly
earlier than normal. For best results, foods should be cooked
uncovered, in low-sided pans to take advantage of the forced
air circulation. When using the Convection Roast mode, the
standard oven temperature does not need to be reduced.
Advantages of Convection Cooking
• Even baking, browning and crisping are achieved.
• During roasting, juices and flavors are sealed in while the
exterior is crisp.
• Yeast breads are lighter, more evenly textured, more golden
and crustier.
• Air-leavened foods such as cream puffs, soufflés and
meringues are higher and lighter.
• Baking on multiple racks at the same time is possible with
even results.
• Multiple-rack baking saves time.
• Prepare whole meals at once with no flavor transfer.
• Dehydrates herbs, fruits and vegetables.
• Requires no specialized bake ware.
• Saves time and energy.
• Convection broiling allows for extraordinary grilling with
thicker cuts of food.

7 - General Oven Information
Before using your oven for the first time remove all packing and
foreign materials from the oven(s). Any material of this sort left
inside may melt or burn when the appliance is used.
Flashing Symbols or Numbers
Signals an incomplete action that is in progress (locking the
door, preheat, etc.) or an incomplete setting that calls for
another input.
Beeps
Signals that more information must be entered or confirms the
receipt of an entry. Beeps also signal the end of a function or
an oven fault.
Door lock
It’s displayed steadily when the door is locked. The symbol
flashes when the latch is moving in order to lock or unlock the
door. Do not attempt to open the door at this time. Door can be
opened when the symbol no longer appears. “AUTO LOCK”
appears when the door has been locked automatically due to
self-clean mode.
“USER LOCK” is displayed when the door has been locked
manually by the user, for example to prevent children from
having free access to the oven cavity. Hold both the +and
-
keys for 3 seconds. The latch will lock the door. Repeat the
same operation to unlock.
Locking the keyboard
Hold both the keys indicated by “KEYBD. LOCK” legend for 3
seconds. Commands are now locked and “SENS LOCK” will
be displayed every time you touch any keys. Repeat the same
operation for 3 seconds to unlock the keyboard.
Power Failure
After the power returns to the oven, the clock displays the time
12.00AM.
Default Settings
The cooking modes automatically select a suitable temperature
when the selector is in the preset position. These can be
changed when a different one is needed. It’s also possible to
set a user option in order to save the last used temperature per
every cooking mode.
Failure Number Codes
These codes are displayed when the electronic control detects
a problem in the oven or in the electronics.
Convection Fan
The convection fan operates during any convection mode.
When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the
fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan always runs during the preheat time.
Component Cooling Fan
Activates during any cooking or self-cleaning mode to cool
inner components and outer door surfaces. This air is exhausted
through the vent located above the oven door. It continues to
run until components have cooled sufficiently. The cooling ffan
operates at double speed (or RPM’s) in self-clean and whenever
the internal components temperature becomes high.
Preheat and Fast Preheat
Whenever a cooking mode is set and the oven is heating,
the “PREHEAT” writing appears in the temperature display: the
vertical bar indicates, in four steps, when the oven reaches the
25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of the set-point temperature.
As soon as the 100% is reached, the control sounds an “end of
preheat” tone and the “PREHEAT” writing disappears.
When it’s necessary to heat up the oven rapidly, a Fast
Preheat mode is available: it uses the heating elements and the
convection fan in a special way, in order to reduce the heating
time as long as possible.
After having set one of the cooking functions for which the fast
preheat is available, touch the P-HEAT key, the “FAST” writing
is shown in addition to the “PREHEAT” one.
As soon as the set-point temperature is reached, the control
sounds an “end of preheat” tone and both “FAST” and
“PREHEAT” writings disappear. The oven switches automatically
to the desired cooking mode that was previously set: put the
food inside now.

8 - General Oven Tips
Preheating the Oven
• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and
Convection Roast modes.
• Use Fast Preheat mode when a shorter time is desired to
preheat the oven.
• Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat
time.
• Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes,
cookies, pastry and breads.
• Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes,
cookies, pastry and breads.
• Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
• During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is
always displayed.
• A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the
“PREHEAT” writing will turn off.
Operational Suggestions
• Use the cooking charts as a guide.
• Do not set pans on the open oven door.
• Use the interior oven lights to view the food through the oven
door window rather than opening the door frequently.
Utensils
• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature
25°F (15°C) when baking in glass.
• Use pans that give the desired browning. The type of finish
on the pan will help determine the amount of browning that
will occur.
• Shiny, smooth metal or light non-stick / anodized pans reflect
heat, resulting in lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of utensil.
• Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• For brown, crisp crusts, use dark non-stick / anodized or
dark, dull metal utensils or glass bake ware. Insulated baking
pans may increase the length of cooking time.
• Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven, as this
could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan
outside of the oven.
Oven Condensation and Temperature
• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate
from the food during any cooking process. The amount
depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture
may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the
oven, such as the control panel.
• Your new oven has an electronic temperature sensor that
allows maintaining an accurate temperature. Your previous
oven may have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted
gradually over time to a higher temperature. It is normal that
you may need to adjust your favorite recipes when cooking
in a new oven.
High Altitude Baking
• When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time
will vary from the standard.
120/240 vs. 120/208 Volt Connection
• Most oven installations will have a 120/240 voltage
connection.
• If your oven is installed with 120/208 voltage, the preheat
time may be slightly longer than with 120/240 voltage.
• The oven is designed to assure the same clean time at 208V.
Oven Racks
• The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the
illustration on Page 5.
• Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rack guide
(#1) to the top (#6).
• Check cooking charts for best rack positions to use when
cooking.
• Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the
walls on each side of the oven cavity.
• Always be sure to position the oven racks before turning on
the oven. Make sure that the racks are level once they are
in position.
Please refer to illustration on Page 5 if there is any question
as to which side is the front of the rack.
The racks are designed to stop when pulled forward to their limit.
CAUTION
Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line
the oven. It can cause damage to the oven liner if heat is
trapped under the foil.
CAUTION
Make sure you do not force it to avoid damage to the
enamel.

Oven Telescopic Racks
The extendable rack allows for easier access to cooking foods.
It extends beyond the standard flat rack bringing the food
closer to the user.
CAUTION
When the rack is outside of the oven, slide arms do not
lock. They could unexpectedly extend if the rack is carried
incorrectly. Extending slide arms could cause injury. Rack
should only be held or carried by grasping the sides.
NOTE: Always remove the extendable rack before self-
cleaning the oven.
CAUTION!
To avoid burns, pull rack all the way out and lift pan above
handle when transferring food to and from oven.
Please refer to illustration on Page 5 if there is any question
as to which side is the front of the rack.
To remove extendable rack from the oven:
1. Lift of rack slightly and push it towards the back of the oven
until the stop releases.
2. Raise back of rack until frame and stop clear rack guide

12 - Setting the Meat Probe Options
This oven is optionally provided with the meat probe feature to
sense the temperature inside meat and stop cooking as soon
as the set value is reached. In a double oven it’s available only
in the upper cavity.
The following modes can be selected to work with the
meat probe:
CONVECTION BAKE
CONVECTION ROAST
BAKE
Other modes are not allowed to start if the probe is inserted.
Once the probe has been inserted in its receptacle and
detected by the control, turn the cooking mode knob into a
valid position, the PROBE writing appears on the cooking
mode display with the selected function.
The meat probe standard temperature (170°F) flashes on the
clock module for 5 seconds.
Using the +/
-
keys, it’s possible to change the probe set.
The standard probe temperature set-point is 170°F.
The allowed range is between 130°F and 210°F.
The maximum cavity temperature during cooking with meat
probe is 475°F.
The resolution must be 5°F or 2.5°C both for set and actual
temperature.
After 5 seconds the value on the display is accepted and the
control starts cooking. The actual probe temperature is now
displayed.
Touch +or
-
once to check the probe set temperature.
When it’s flashing touch it further or hold to modify the value.
As soon as the set probe temperature is reached, the control
sounds an end of cooking tone and stops the oven.
Always turn the cooking mode in the OFF position before re-
using the oven.
The PROBE writing flashes when the mode is not valid for
cooking with probe. If the probe is removed during cooking,
or in case of a short or open circuit, a fault message will be
displayed.
Automatic time functions are disabled when using the meat
probe, only the timer can work.

13 - Bake Tips and Techniques
General Guidelines
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1”
- 1 ½” (2,5 - 3cm) space between utensils and oven walls.
• Use one rack when selecting the bake mode.
• Check for doneness at the minimum time.
• Use metal bake ware (with or without a non stick finish),
heatproof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery or other utensils
suitable for the oven.
• When using heatproof glass, reduce temperature by 25°F
(15°C) from recommended temperature.
• Use baking sheets with or without sides or jelly roll pans.
• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with
more browning. Insulated bake ware will slightly lengthen
the cooking time for most foods.
• Do not use aluminum foil or disposable aluminum trays to line
any part of the oven. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and
heat will be trapped beneath it. This will alter the cooking
performance and can damage the finish of the oven.
• Avoid using the opened door as a shelf to place pans.
• Tips for Solving Baking Problems are found on Page 31.

Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements in the oven are used to heat the air but no fan is used to circulate
the heat.
Follow the recipe or convenience food directions for baking temperature, time and rack position. Baking time will vary with the
temperature of ingredients and the size, shape and finish of the baking utensil.

14 - Convection Bake Tips and Techniques
Reduce recipe baking temperatures by 25°F (15°C).
• For best results, foods should be cooked uncovered, in low-
sided pans to take advantage of the forced air circulation.
Use shiny aluminum pans for best results unless otherwise
specified.
• Heatproof glass or ceramic can be used. Reduce temperature
by another 25°F (15°C) when using heatproof glass dishes
for a total reduction of 50°F (30°C).
• Dark metal pans may be used. Note that food may brown
faster when using dark metal bake ware.
• The number of racks used is determined by the height of the
food to be cooked.
• Baked items, for the most part, cook extremely well in
convection. Don’t try to convert recipes such as custards,
quiches, pumpkin pie , or cheesecakes, which do not benefit
from the convection-heating process. Use the regular Bake
mode for these foods.
• Multiple rack cooking for oven meals is done on rack
positions 1, 2, 3 , 4 and 5. All five racks can be used for
cookies, biscuits and appetizers.
- 2 Rack baking: Use positions 1 and 3.
- 3 rack baking: Use positions 2, 3 and 4 or 1, 3 and 5.
- When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger
pans so that one pan is not directly above another. For
best results, place cakes on front of upper rack and back
of lower rack (See graphic at right). Allow 1” - 1 ½” (2,5
- 3cm).air space around pans.
• Converting your own recipe can be easy. Choose a recipe
that will work well in convection.
• Reduce the temperature and cooking time if necessary. It
may take some trial and error to achieve a perfect result.
Keep track of your technique for the next time you want to
prepare the recipe using convection.
• Tips for Solving Baking Problems are found on Page 31.

Quick and easy recipe tips
Converting from standard BAKE to CONVECTION BAKE:
• Reduce the temperature by 25°F (15°C).
• Use the same baking time as Bake mode if under 10 to
15 minutes.
• Foods with a baking time of less than 30 minutes should
be checked for doneness 5 minutes earlier than in
standard bake recipes.
• If food is baked for more than 40 to 45 minutes, bake
time should be reduced by 25%.
