You can connect our oven to the s stem means of
a terminal board. Refer to above information for the
minimal cable sections and the calibration of the
protective elements according to the connection.
If the appliance is installed with a junction box, an
omnipolar circuit breaker - with a minimum contact
opening of 3mm - should be installed between the
appliance and the mains.
Power cable supply connection to the electrical
mains:
We recommend ou use a power suppl cable which

Start-up and use

6
GB
If a blackout occurs while the oven is alread in
operation, an automatic s stem within the appliance
will reactivate the cooking mode from where it was
interrupted as long as the temperature has not
dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking
modes which have not started will not be restored
and must be reprogrammed.
 There is no preheating stage for the BARBECUE mode.
 Never put objects directl on the bottom of the
oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being
damaged.
 Alwa s place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the
oven, a cooling fan generates a stream of air which
escapes between the oven control panel and the
oven door.
 Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling
fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled
down sufficientl .
Oven light
When the oven is not in operation, the lamp can be
switched on at an time b pressing the button.

Manual coo ing modes
 All cooking modes have a default cooking
temperature which ma be adjusted manuall
between 40°C and 250°C as desired.
In the BARBECUE mode, the default power level
value is indicated as a percentage (%) and ma also
be adjusted manuall .
MULTILEVEL mode
All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the
heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks
and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two
racks ma be used at the same time.
BARBECUE mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where
present) are activated. B pressing the + and -
buttons on the left hand side of the control panel,
the power levels that ma be set will appear on the
TEMPERATURE displa ; these range between 5%
and 100%. The high and direct temperature of the grill is
recommended for food which requires a high surface
temperature. Alwa s cook in this mode with the oven door
closed.
GRATIN mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit
(where present) are activated and the fan begins to
operate. During part of the c cle the circular heating
element is also activated. This combination of
features increases the effectiveness of the
unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating
elements through forced circulation of the air
throughout the oven.
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface
and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food.
Alwa s cook in this mode with the oven door closed.
LOW TEM ERATURE modes
This t pe of cooking can be used for proving,
defrosting, preparing oghurt and heating dishes at
the required speed. The temperature options are: 40,
65, 90 °C.
Spit roast (onl available in certain models)
To operate the rotisserie
spit (see diagram)
proceed as follows:
1. Place the dripping pan in position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie support in position 3 and
insert the spit into the hole provided on the back
panel of the oven.
3. Start the spit roast function b selecting the
or modes.
 When the mode is activated, the rotisserie spit
will stop if the door is opened.
Automatic coo ing modes
 The temperature and the cooking duration are pre-
set values, guaranteeing a perfect result ever time -
automaticall . These values are set using the C.O..®
(rogrammed Optimal Cooking) s stem. The
duration ma be modified b ±5/10 minutes,
depending on the selected cooking mode. The
cooking c cle stops automaticall and the oven
indicates when the dish is cooked. You ma start
cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not.
 When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven
buzzer sounds.
 Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the
cooking time and temperature.
ROAST mode
Use this function to cook beef, pork and lamb. Place
the meat inside the oven while it is still cold. The
dish ma also be placed in a preheated oven.
BAKED CAKES mode
This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are
made using natural east, baking powder and
desserts which contain no east. Place the dish in
the oven while it is still cold. The dish ma also be
placed in a preheated oven.

To cancel a programmed procedure press the
START/STOP button.
Practical coo ing advice
 Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-
assisted cooking. This is because excessive direct
heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.
 In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes,
particularl when using the rotisserie spit, place the
dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking
residues (fat and/or grease).
MULTILEVEL
 Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which
requires more heat on 2.
 Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack
on top.
BARBECUE
 Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in
the centre of the rack.
 We recommend that the power level is set to
maximum. The top heating element is regulated
b a thermostat and ma not alwa s operate
constantl .
PIZZA
 Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the
rack provided.
For a crisp crust, do not use the dripping pan as
it prevents the crust from forming b extending
the total cooking time.
 If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza
halfwa through the cooking process.
