ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
BEFORE USING THE OVEN
For best use of the oven please read the
instructions for use carefully and keep them
in a safe place.
Remove the cardboard protection and the
protective plastic film.
Take the accessories out of the oven and
heat it to 200°C for about an hour to remove

HINTS FOR PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
1. Packing
The packaging material is 100% recyclable
and it is marked with the recycle symbol
().
2. Electrical appliances
The electrical appliances are manufactured
with recyclable or reusable material.
Dispose of them following the local
regulations for the disposal of waste. Before
disposing of them make them unusable by
cutting off the supply cable.
Warning: Do not connect to the power supply before
you have finished connecting the oven.
Make sure the oven is installed and connected to the
electricity supply by a qualified technician in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions and
in compliance with local regulations.
The installer is responsible for the correct electrical
connection of the oven and the observance of the
relative safety regulations.
The oven must be connected to the electricity supply
by means of an all-pole disconnect switch with
minimum contact gap of 3 mm.
The oven must be grounded.
Do not use multiple plug adapters or extension leads.
After the oven has been installed, the electrical
components must be inaccessible.
Make sure that the voltage shown on the rating plate
is the same as the power supply voltage in your home.
The rating plate is on the front edge of the oven cavity
(visible with oven door open).

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL SUGGESTIONS
Before any operation, switch off the electricity to the
oven.
Keep children away from the oven when it is in use
and when its has just been switched off.
Any repair or operation on the oven must only be
performed by a qualified engineer.
Make sure that the electrical cables of other
appliances used near the oven do not touch hot parts
and are not trapped in the oven door.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door. Do not hang
anything heavy on the handle of the open oven door.
Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories, when
the oven is hot.
 Do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil.
Do not leave any flammable material in the oven. If
the appliance is switched on by mistake, it could catch
fire.
During the cooking process water evaporates as steam
from the food. All ovens require this steam, and other
fumes, to be vented from the oven cavity. For reasons
of safety and appearance, it was determined that the
bottom of the door is the optimum position.
Consequently vapour may be seen coming from this
area on occasion (see picture). This is a normal
occurrence and the bottom trim can be cleaned.
Do not rest heavy weights on the door because these
could damage the oven cavity and the hinges.
Maximum weight: 7 Kg.

OVEN ACCESSORIES
 Accessories supplied depend on the model (refer to
the Product Description Sheet supplied
separately).
Bar rack
The bar rack can be used in the same way as a flat rack.
The number of shelf positions can be doubled, depending
on whether the rack is inserted in the (A) or (B) position.
Multi-purpose drip tray
This tray can also be used as a baking tray, and has a
sloping edge for this purpose.
Use as a baking tray for cream puff, meringues,
madeleines, puff pastry, etc.
When placed under a rack, it acts as a drip tray to collect
dripping juices and fat from grilling dishes.
Turnspit
The turnspit comes supplied with a stand for the spit.
To use the turnspit:
Fit the spit stand in position in the oven.
Slide one of the forks on to the spit, followed by the
food to be spit-roasted, then the second fork. Centre
the food and secure in position by screw-tightening
the two forks.
Place the spit on the stand.
Brush the food with oil or softened butter.
Insert the tip of the spit in the turning square at the
back of the oven.

CLEANING THE OVEN AND ITS ACCESSORIES
After each use leave the oven to cool and clean it to avoid
the encrustations being repeatedly heated.
If the dirt is tough, use a specific oven cleaning product
following the instructions on the packaging.
Clean the outside with a sponge dampened with lukewarm
water.
 Do not use abrasives or metal pads.
Clean the oven door glass with a liquid detergent.
Wash the accessories in the dishwasher or by hand using
an oven cleaning product.
If cooking lasts for a long time, or when cooking
simultaneously on several levels, food containing a large
amount of water (pizza, stuffed vegetables, etc.) may
create condensation on the inside of the door and on the
gasket; when the oven has cooled, dry with a cloth or a
sponge.
Additional information for appliances which have
an aluminium front:
The material has a sensitive surface. In order to avoid
scratches, only use a soft sponge and liquid cleaner to clean
the front of the appliance.
Removing the oven door
To remove the oven door, guide the lever (A) into the hinge
notch (B): close the door to its stop position and pull out
towards you.
Refit in the reverse order.
Changing the oven light bulb
Disconnect the oven from electrical supply.
To remove and replace the bulb, remove the cover (H).
Proceed as shown in the diagram opposite.
Use only E14 -25W - 300 °C bulbs.
Remember to replace the seal (J).
Self-cleaning system
This oven burns off splashes and deposits at high
temperature.
The smoke produced is cleaned by being passed through a
catalyser.
The self-cleaning system works more efficiently if operated
before the oven becomes too soiled, with a low energy
consumption.
However, it is not necessary to operate the self-cleaning
function each time the oven is used, but only if the oven is
splashed. For safety reasons, the self-cleaning function will
only operate following automatic locking of the oven door.
Once the internal temperature of the oven exceeds the
maximum cooking temperature, the door can no longer be
opened.

CLEANING THE OVEN AND ITS ACCESSORIES
Notes
The self-cleaning function can be operated at any
time using the programmer, even overnight (to
take advantage of lower tariffs). Before operating,
take the following essential precautions:
 remove all accessories from the oven,
including the oven fittings (racks,
multifunction drip trays, etc.).
 remove larger deposits, since these can
ignite or produce a large amount of smoke.
When the self-cleaning operation is complete
and the door can be re-opened, there may be
white deposits on the inside of the oven: allow
the oven to cool and remove any residues with
a damp sponge.
The cooling fan will continue to operate
after the oven has switched off. This is
normal, and it will switch off automatically
once the oven has cooled down to normal
temperature.
USING THE SELF-CLEANING FUNCTION
- Turn the mode selector to the economic
self-cleaning position (if provided) or
to the normal self cleaning position .
In the position a time of 1h. 30 min. is
selected automatically and cannot be modified.
A delayed self- cleaning cycle can be
programmed; please refer to the instructions in
the separate Programmer Sheet, section:
Selecting the End of Cooking time.
In ovens with electronic control: a time of
1h. 30 min. is selected automatically.
To change this time or select delayed self-
cleaning, please refer to the separate Programmer
sheet, section: Selecting the Cooking Time or
Selecting the end of Cooking Time.
In ovens without electronic control, the self-
cleaning time must be programmed.
Please refer to the separate Product
Description Sheet.
The self-cleaning function can be extended to
120 minutes or more if the oven is particularly
heavily soiled.
The pilot light indicates that the oven door is
locked and remains on after the end of selected
self-cleaning time. The door cannot be re-
opened until the oven has cooled down to a
normal temperature (maximum temperature of
the cooking thermostat).
Do not attempt to unlock the oven door by force.
If the pilot light is on, wait until it switches off.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The oven does not work
Switch on the appliance again to see
whether the problem has disappeared.
Check that there is power to the appliance.
Check that the oven selector switch is not
on the O position.
Check that the temperature and function
have been selected.
Excessive smoke during operation
- Select a temperature lower than the
recommended temperature given in the
cooking chart.
- Do not use the multi-purpose drip tray as a
roasting tin.
- Clean the oven.
Steam
- When cooking food which contains a large
amount of liquid (e.g. stuffed tomatoes,
courgettes), the oven should be pre-heated
to the cooking temperature to prevent
condensation forming on the glass panels
of the oven door.
The cooling fan continues to operate
after the oven has switched off
- The Cooling Fan is an active safety device
which may continue to operate after the oven
has been switched off. This is normal and
ensures proper cooling down of the oven.
The cooling fan fails to operate
