Instructions for disposal
2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL –
OUR ENVIRONMENTAL CARE
Our product's packing is made of non-polluting materials, therefore
compatible with the environment and recycable. Please help by disposing
of the packing correctly. Find the addresses of collection, recycling and
disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local
organisations.
Do not throw the packing or any part of it away. They can constitute a
suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.
Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.
Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for
the collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal
means intelligent recycling of valuable materials.
Before disposing of your old appliance remove the door and leave the
racks in their normal working positions so that children cannot get stuck in
the oven compartment whilst playing. It is also necessary to cut the
electric power cord and remove it along with the plug.

Instructions for the user
7. USE OF THE OVEN
7.1 Warnings and general advice
All cooking operations must be carried out with the door closed.
Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum
temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which
could give the food a bad taste.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium
or tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on it as this may
damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper,
place it so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside
the oven.
The oven accessories intended to come into contact with food are made of
materials that comply with the provisions of Directive 89/109/EEC, dated
21/12/88 and of Decree Law 108, dated 25/01/92.
To prevent any steam in the oven creating
problems, open the door in two stages: half open
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open.
To access food, always leave the door open as
short a time as possible to prevent the temperature
in the oven from falling and ruining the food.
To prevent excessive amounts of condensation from forming on the
internal glass, food should not be left inside the oven for too long after
cooking.
7.2 Operating modes
This product is programmed to have 3 operating conditions:
OFF setting: this condition is set when the knob PT2 is positioned on the
“0” symbol and the current time appears on the viewer.
ON setting: this condition is set when the selection knob PT2 is turned to
any function and the selected temperature appears on the viewer.
Stand-by setting: this condition is set when the selection knob PT2 is
turned to any function and a cooking time has been set and the current
time appears on the viewer.

Instructions for the user
7.3 First use
At first use, or after a power failure, the oven's display (DSP1) will show a
flashing symbol. To be able to start any cooking function the current
time must be set.
(For further information on setting or changing the current time see “7.6
Secondary menu”).
7.4 Function selection
To select a cooking function, turn PT2.
Then use the PT1 knob to select the desired temperature
7.4.1 Cooking with preset temperature
Once the desired function has been selected, the oven will begin cooking
at the pre-set time. Cooking is preceded by a pre-heating phase
(common to all functions) which allows the oven to reach the cooking
temperature more quickly.
This phase is indicated by the symbol flashing on the display (DSP1).
At the end of the pre-heating phase, the symbol will remain constantly
on to indicate that the food can be placed inside the oven.
7.4.2 Changing the preset temperature
The temperature preset for each function can be changed to suit the user's
requirements.
At any time while cooking is in progress, turn PT1 in either direction to
increase or decrease the cooking temperature by 5 degrees at a time. PT1
can also be held in the left or right position to increase or decrease the
setting more quickly.
7.5 Programmed cooking procedures
7.5.1 Cooking timed with the timer
From ON status (see point “7.2 Operating modes”), press PT1 once. The
display will show the figures (constantly on) and the symbol
(flashing). Turn PT1 to set the minutes of cooking (from 00:01 to
23:59:00). After a few seconds, the symbol will stop flashing and stay
on constantly; the countdown will start from that moment. At this point it is
also possible to select the cooking function required and wait for the
buzzer to sound, indicating that the cooking time is over.
Press PT1 once to stop the buzzer. You can now set an additional cooking
time by turning PT1, or return to display of the current time by pressing
PT1 twice.
Turn PT2 to the “0” symbol to switch off the oven.
The minute minder also works with no function set.

42
Instructions for the user
Warning. The minute minder does not stop the cooking process. It only
warns the user that the preset number of minutes have passed.
To switch the oven off, turn PT2 to the “0” symbol.
Modifying the data set
Once the countdown has started it is possible to change its duration
during cooking.
When the symbol is steady, press PT1 once. The symbol starts
flashing and PT1 can be turned to change the set duration. A few seconds
after the last change, the symbol will stop flashing, and the countdown
will restart from the new value.
To change the preset temperature, wait for the symbol to become
steady and turn PT1 to the right or left to increase or decrease the cooking
temperature.
7.5.2 Semiautomatic cooking
Semiautomatic cooking is the function which allows a cooking operation to
be started and then ended after a specific length of time set by the user.
Select a cooking function (see point “7.4 Function selection”) and press
PT1 twice. The display will show the figures and the symbol
(flashing).
Turn PT1 to the right or left to set the minutes of cooking (from 00:01 to
23:59). A few seconds after the required duration is set, the symbol will
stop flashing, and semiautomatic cooking will start from that moment. At
the end, the word STOP will appear on DSP1, cooking will stop and a
buzzer will sound; press PT1 once to deactivate it.
If you wish to continue cooking beyond the set time, press PT1 again. The
oven will restart normal operation with the cooking settings selected
previously.
To switch the oven off completely, you must turn PT2 to the “0” symbol.
Modifying the data set
Once semiautomatic cooking has started, its duration can be changed.
When the symbol is steady, press PT1 once. The symbol starts
flashing and PT1 can be turned to change the set duration. A few seconds
after the last change, the symbol will stop flashing, and semiautomatic
cooking will restart from the new value.
To change the preset temperature, wait for the symbol to become
steady and turn PT1 to the right or left to increase or decrease the cooking
temperature.
