3.4 Using the hob
Residual heat
The indicator lights located between the
cooking zones come on when the
temperature of one or more of the radiant
zones exceeds 60°C. These indicator lights
switch off when the temperature falls below
approximately 60°C.
Switching on the cooking zones
The appliance has cooking zones of
different diameters and power levels.
Their positions and the edges of the
heated area are shown by the markings
on the glass.
The cooking zones are of the HIGH-
LIGHT type, they turn on after a few
seconds and the heating is adjustable
using the controls on the control panel,
from low to high.
Switching off the cooking zones
To switch off the cooking zones, turn the
corresponding knobs to 0.
Double heating zones
To turn on the double heating zones,
turn the knob to the maximum value and

single central plate, turn the knob to 0
and then turn it back to a position
between minimum and maximum.
Improper use
Danger of burns

heat indicator. The cooking zones
remain hot for a certain period of time
even after they have been turned off.
Make sure that children never touch the
hob.

Use
18
Practical advice for using the hob
• The diameter of the base of the pan must
correspond to the diameter of the
cooking zone.
• When buying a saucepan, check
whether the diameter indicated is that of
the base or the top of the container, as
the top is almost always larger than the
base.
• The base of the cookware must be thick
and completely flat. It should also be
clean and dry. The hob should be clean
and dry as well.
• When preparing dishes with long
cooking times, you can save time and
energy by using a pressure cooker,
which also makes it possible to preserve
the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker
contains enough liquid as, if there is not
enough and it overheats, this may cause
damage to both the pressure cooker and
the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover saucepans with
a suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
• Do not use cast-iron cookware or
cookware with a rough base.
3.5 Using the storage compartment
The storage compartment is at the bottom of
the cooker. To open it, pull the handle
towards you. It can be used to store
cookware or metallic objects necessary
when using the appliance.
3.6 Using the oven
Switching on the oven
To switch on the oven:
1. Select the cooking function using the
function knob.
2. Select the temperature using the
temperature knob.
Ensure that the programmer clock
shows the cooking duration
symbol , otherwise it will not
be possible to turn on the oven.
Press the keys and at the
same time to reset the programmer
clock.

Functions list
Static
As the heat comes from above and
below at the same time, this system
is particularly suitable for certain
types of food. Traditional cooking,
also known as static cooking, is
suitable for cooking just one dish at
a time. Perfect for all types of roasts,
bread and cakes and in any case
particularly suitable for fatty meats
such as goose and duck.
Fan + lower element
The combination of the fan with just
the lower heating element allows
cooking to be completed more
rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for
finishing off the cooking of foods
which are already well-cooked on
the surface, but not inside, which
therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.
In pyrolytic models, the special
defrost and proving functions are
brought together under the same
function.
Grill + Rotisserie
The rotisserie works in combination
with the central grill heating element
and allows food to be perfectly
browned.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Fan with grill
The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by
the grill, grilling perfectly even very
thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of
meat (e.g. shin of pork).
Fan assisted
The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures
consistent cooking even with
complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits
and cakes, even when
simultaneously cooked on several
levels. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 2nd and
4th shelves.)

Use
20
3.7 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it
needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
Fan with circulaire
The combination of the fan and the
circulaire heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the
oven) allows you to cook different
foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures
and same type of cooking. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and even
distribution of heat. It will be
possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours
mingling.
Eco
Using the grill and the lower heating
element in combination is
particularly suitable for cooking on
a single shelf, as it provides low
energy consumption. Ideal for
cooking meat, fish and vegetables.
Not recommended for desserts
which must rise.
Vapor Clean
This function makes cleaning easier
using the steam produced by a
small quantity of water poured onto
the appropriate groove placed on
the bottom.

Use
21
EN
• With the Grill function, we recommend
that you turn the temperature knob to the
maximum value near the symbol to
optimise cooking.
• Foods should be seasoned before
cooking. Foods should also be coated
with oil or melted butter before cooking.
• Use the oven tray on the first bottom shelf
to collect liquids produced by grilling.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked
right through: At the end of the cooking
time, put a toothpick into the highest point
of the dessert. If the dough does not stick
to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes
out of the oven, on the next occasion
reduce the set temperature by about
10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if
necessary.
• While cooking desserts or vegetables,
excessive condensation may form on the
glass. In order to avoid this, open the
door very carefully a couple of times
while cooking.
Advice for defrosting and proving
• Place frozen foods without their
packaging in a lidless container on the
first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on
the second level and a tray on the first
level. In this way, the liquid from the
defrosting food drains away from the
food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered
with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of
water should be placed in the bottom of
the oven.
To save energy
• Stop cooking a few minutes before the
time normally used. Cooking will
continue for the remaining minutes with
the heat which has accumulated inside
the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a
minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean
at all times.
