gloves when moving food inside the
oven.

3.3 Using the accessories
Racks and trays
Racks and trays have to be inserted into the
side guides until they come to a complete
stop.
• The mechanical safety locks that prevent
the rack from being taken out
accidentally must face downwards and
towards the back of the oven cavity.
Tray rack (on some models only)
The tray rack has to be inserted into the tray.
In this way fat can be collected separately
from the food which is being cooked.
Cover and pizza stone (on some models
only)
Gently insert racks and trays into
the oven until they come to a stop.
Clean the trays before using them
for the first time to remove any
residues left by the manufacturing
process.
Improper use
Danger of burns and damage to
surfaces
• The stone stays hot for many minutes
after cooking has ended. Ensure it is
handled with due caution.
• Do not use the pizza stone other than as
described, for example do not use it on
gas or glass ceramic hobs or in ovens
which are not designed for this purpose.
• If you like oil on your pizza, it is best to
add it after removal from the oven since
oil stains on the pizza stone are unsightly
and may reduce its efficiency.
• If the pizza stone is not in use, remove it
from the oven and cover the bottom of
the oven with the cover provided.

Use
63
EN
With the appliance cold, remove the cover
from the bottom and insert the pizza stone.
Make sure that the stone is inserted
correctly in the recess provided.
For cooking, use the special pizza
function .
Pizza spatula (on some models only)
Always grip the pizza spatula by the
handle when moving food to avoid the risk
of burns. You are advised to dust the steel
surface lightly with flour to make it easier to
slide fresh products on and off, as they
could stick to the steel due to their moisture
content.
3.4 Using the oven
Switching on the oven
1. Press the function knob to turn on the
display.
2. Turn the function knob to the right or left
to select the required function.
3. Press the programming knob.
4. Turn the programming knob to set the
temperature.
5. Press the programming knob or wait 3
seconds.
6. Press the function knob to start cooking.
Preheating stage
Cooking itself is preceded by a preheating
stage, which allows the appliance to heat
to the cooking temperature more quickly.
The light flashes to indicate that this
stage is in progress.
Press and hold the function knob
down for around 3 seconds to
immediately terminate any cooking
operation.

Use
64
When the preheating stage is over, the
indicator light will remain lit steadily
and a buzzer will sound to indicate that the
food can be placed inside the oven.
List of cooking functions
Cooking can be interrupted at any
time by pressing and holding the
function knob down for at least 3
seconds.
Eco
This function is particularly suitable
for cooking on a single shelf with
low energy consumption.
Ideal for cooking meat, fish and
vegetables. It is not recommended
for leavened foods.
To obtain maximum energy savings
and reduce cooking times, it is
recommended to place food in the
oven without preheating.
When using the ECO function,
avoid opening the door during
cooking.
Cooking (and preheating) times
are longer with the ECO function.
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.
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.
Lower element (on some models
only)
The heat coming just from the
bottom allows you to complete the
cooking of foods that require a
higher bottom temperature, without
affecting their browning. Perfect for
cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.

Use
65
EN
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).
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 + lower element (on some
models only)
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.
Turbo (on some models only)
The combination of fan assisted
cooking and traditional cooking
allows different foods to be cooked
on several levels extremely quickly
and efficiently, without odours and
flavours mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense
cooking. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 1st and 4th
shelves.)
Circulaire (on some models only)
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.
Pizza (on some models only)
The operation of the fan, combined
with the grill and the lower heating
element, ensures uniform cooking
even with complex recipes. Perfect
not just for pizzas, but also for
biscuits and cakes.

stops flashing. Press the function knob to
start timed cooking.
4. At the end of cooking, STOP flashes on
the display and a buzzer will sound that
