Connection to the network is done using an
H05RRF-type cable and an all-pole switch
that conforms to installation regulations in
force. The guard wire must be linked to the
appliance's and the installation's ground tab
terminals. If the cable is damaged, it should
be replaced by a similar cable.
Before making the connection, check that the
section of the electrical installation wires is
big enough to supply the cooker correctly.
Use a mains cable with a cross section
suited to the connection (complying with the
chart below).
Fixed appliances including a power cable and
a mains power plug must be positioned in su-
ch a manner as to ensure that the

Useful tips to cook economically
on radiant and halogen rings
- Pans must be designed for cooking with elec-
tricity. They can be made of stainless steel wi-
th a triple base (steel, aluminium or copper
sandwich), of aluminium,
whether Teflon-coated or not, ceramic,
"vision" glass, thick enamelled steel or cast
iron (for these, select a pan with a base desi-
gned for ceramic hobs, e.g.:
VITROBASE).
- It is important that the base is thick and pro-
perly flat so that it is in contact with the whole
heating surface. A pan with a
concave or dented base will give poor
results, with hot points which may burn, and is
more likely to leave traces of metal on the hob.
- Best results and the guarantee of
quality over time are obtained by using
saucepans in which the diameter of the base
corresponds to the design
representing each heating zone on the
ceramic hob.
- A smaller pan can be used without
damaging the hob, but energy will be
wasted. If it is larger, it will take longer to heat
up.
-
AAuuttoommaattiicc rreegguullaattiioonn ooff tthhee rriinnggss::
The radiant ring regulates itself automatically.
It turns on and off in order to
maintain the selected power setting. In this
way, the temperature remains constant and
tailored to cooking your dishes.
The regulation frequency varies according to
the power setting selected.

- Energy efficiency: to finish cooking, switch to
position "0", and leave the saucepan or pan in
place to use the accumulated heat to best ef-
fect. (This helps you save energy). Use lidded
pans as often as possible to avoid heat losses
through evaporation.
- The ceramic surface heats up inside the
areas marked out by the screen printing on
top of the heating elements. There is
virtually no dispersion of heat outside these
areas.
- Avoid using the hob as a cutting board.
- Cooking food directly on the hob is not
recommended. Never place plastic items on
the hob when it is still hot.
- Never leave an empty enamelled or
aluminium saucepan or pan on a cooking sur-
face.
- Never use aluminium paper or place items
wrapped in aluminium directly on the
cooking surface. This may permanently
damage your appliance.
- The hob may get scratched by materials whi-
ch are harder than it, (such as grains of sand
for example), which are carried by
vegetables or on the bottoms of saucepans.
- The bases of oversized utensils may trap and
carry materials which cause staining on the
hop.
- Avoid spillages of sugar, liquid sugar or jam,
and should these occur remove them imme-
diately as they can be the cause of
tiny surface blemishes.
The indicator lights
- An indicator lights up on the cooker control
panel when a ring begins operating.
- If the surface temperature exceeds a
certain limit, the excess heat indicator lights
up on the ceramic hob even after the radiant
ring has cut off. Take great care as this means
the cooking zone is still hot.
Warning
- Never stare directly at a halogen
ring when it is operating.
- Items should not be placed on the gas
hob of your cooker, particulary plastic
ustensils or sheets of aluminium placed on
a surface when it is still warm.
- If a crack appears on the surface,
immediately disconnect the cooker from
the power source to avoid any risk of
electric shocks.
Contact your installer immediately. Do not
use the hob until it has been repaired.

There are two types of controls for the hobs
(depending on the model):
- Rapid cast-iron hob including
temperature limiting device, with control
switches numbered from 0 to 6.
- Rapid cast-iron hob controlled by an energy
regulator with switches numbered from 0 to 9.
Tips for using your cast-iron hob
(depending on model)
- Before using the hobs for the very first time,
allow the hobs to heat up with
nothing on them at maximum temperature for
3 minutes to harden the coating.
- A "Power on" light comes on when a hob is
operating.
- You should use flat bottomed recipients
which sit perfectly on the surface of the ring:
- Made from stainless steel with a thick
or sandwich base.
- Made from aluminium with a thick base
- Made from enamelled steel (thick
sheet metal).
- You should select a saucepan or pan of a si-
ze suited to your actual needs. The base dia-
meter of the pan should be equal or
superior to that of the ring used. Use a lid as
often as possible to reduce losses through
evaporation.
- When your preparation reaches boiling point,
there is no point in allowing it to boil with huge
bubbles. The food will not cook more quickly.
It will cook better on a
lower light which will maintain gentle boiling.
- You can turn the hotplate off by setting it to
0 before the cooking is finished; you will use
the heat accumulated in the
hotplate and therefore save on electricity.
- Use recipients with a dry base in order avoid
the hobs rusting.

Warning
- Ensure that your oven door is securely closed, to ensure that the door seal can play its
role effectively.
- Cooking in the oven and on the grill should be carried out with the cooker cover opened in or-
der to facilitate the removal of hot gases at the back of the work top.
- Do not cover the inside of your oven with aluminium sheet. Otherwise, this will result in a build-
up of heat which will have a harmful effect upon the cooking or roasting and will damage the en-
amel.
- During operation, do not leave the oven door open for more than three minutes in order to avoid
excessive temperature at the knobs.
- During use, the appliance gets hot. Take care that neither you nor anyone else touches the hea-
ting elements.
3 / USING YOUR COOKER
USING THE OVEN
Tips for using oven
- Using the oven for the first time : Before
using your oven for the first time, heat it up
empty with the door closed for approximately
15 minutes on the maximum setting. The
protection which surrounds the oven cavity
may at first produce a particular smell, which
is due to its composition. You may also notice
that some smoke it produced the first time the
oven is heated.
- Before beginning cooking, consult the user
instructions to find the most appropriate heat
setting and the oven level to be used for the
cooking accessories.
- The cooking guide for your appliances pro-
vides the necessary information to create a
certain number of popular dishes.
- The adjustment settings for the oven thermo-
stat in the cooking guide are provided for in-
formation purposes only. Consequently, in or-
der to avoid excess smoke being produced by
a cooking temperature which is too high, it is
preferable to reduce the oven power setting.
- By turning off the oven 5 to 10 minutes befo-
re the end of your cooking session, you can
benefit from the accumulated heat and save
energy.
- Child safety (depending on model)
An additional protection device making it pos-
sible to avoid contact with the oven door is
available from your distributor under the follo-
wing reference: WHITE GRID. This device
should be fitted if young children are present.

browned, as well as for grilling.
Multi-purpose dripping pan fig.3
This can be used as a baking tray and has slo-
ping sides. It can be used for cooking choux
buns, meringues, small cakes, flaky pastry,
etc.
Inserted into the runners under the shelf, it
collects the juices and fat produced when
grilling. It can also be used, half-filled with wa-
ter, as a bain marie.
Do not roast joints of meat in the dripping pan
as this will inevitably result in fat splashes on
the sides of the oven.
Never place this tray directly on the floor of
the oven, except on the GRILL setting.
Anti-drop safety shelf fig.1
The shelf can be used to support all dishes
and tins containing foodstuffs to be cooked or
browned.
It can also be used for grilling meat (with the
meat placed directly upon it).
Removal of dishes using a sliding
oven removal system fig.4
Fitted with a cake plate holder, this makes it
possible to completely remove the dish from
the oven enclosure, enabling you to intervene
easily during cooking.
The system has a anti-drop safety system en-
abling it to bear a weight of 5 kg spread uni-
formly.

It can be used as a cooking dish according to the si-
ze of the item to be cooked (for example poultry sur-
rounded by vegetables, at medium temperature).
Avoid placing small roasts or meat joints in it and co-
oking them at high temperatures as you will automa-
tically have problems of fat and juices spattering up
the walls of the oven.
Never place this dish directly on the bottom.
Rotisserie (depending on model)

- Clean the walls with a cloth soaked in very
hot soapy water, to remove fat splashes. We
advise frequent cleaning.
When a large spillage has occurred, wipe it
up if possible with a damp sponge or a soft
brush. Otherwise, take a sponge or a cloth
soaked in hot soapy water or cream cleaner
(for enamel or stainless steel) and cover the
remaining stains. Leave it there overnight; the
deposits will be easily removed the next day.
- This oven, which has a continuous cleaning
system, consists of 3 panels coated with a
special microporous enamel which makes
them self-cleaning. As soon as stains appear
they are dispersed and diffused across the
microporous surface. They are oxidised from
both sides and gradually disappear. The self-
cleaning enamel is particularly effective on
grease, but not on sugar: for this reason, the
floor, which is more likely to have sugar
spilled on it, is not coated.
Tips
- That these panels are not scratched
with a metal brush, or sharp or pointed
instruments.
- That you do not try to clean them with
scouring products.
- When cooking under the grill, a large
amount of fat is splashed on to the walls,
where the temperature is not high enough
for it to be eliminated completely during
cooking. When this occurs, after cooking
keep the oven on for 20 to 30 minutes, at
maximum heat. If traces remain, they will be
reduced during subsequent cooking and in
this way you will prevent the production of
excessive smoke.

Sponge cakes, vegetables,

Meat, fish, (in a dish), stuffed

Large pieces of spit roasted
meat..
Cooks without spitting: Pyrolysis
cleaning is unnecessary.
Pyrolysis cleaning every three
cooking sessions.
Pyrolysis cleaning can be carried
out after cooking something of
this type, if major spattering has
occurred.
Danger
- During the pyrolysis cleaning process, the surfaces get hotter than during normal use and
children should be kept well away.
- Regardless of the oven type, never place flammable products (rags, towels, paper, household
cleaning products, instructions, etc.) in the pan and accessory compartment of your oven. You
run the risk of a fire for which we cannot be held liable.
- Do not cover the interior of the oven with aluminium paper to reduce cleaning. This will lead to
overheating and will damage the enamel.
- This type of oven is cleaned via the high-temperature destruction of stains and soiling caused by
splashing or spills during cooking.
- The smoke given off is cleaned as it passes through a catalyst. Do not wait until the oven is too
full of grease before carrying out cleaning.

- When your oven starts giving off smoke during preheating or gives off a great deal of smoke
during cooking.
- When your oven gives off an odour when cold, following the cooking of various dishes (lamb,
fish, grilled meat, etc.).
It is not necessary to carry out pyrolysis cleaning after each cooking session, but only if the
degree of soiling and spattering justifies this.
Before starting the pyrolysis cleaning process, remove all accessories from inside the oven, inclu-
ding all pots and pans, etc. Remove any major grease deposits
which may have built up in order to avoid the risk of fire or excessive smoking.
The cleaning can be carried out at any time and even at night (if you want to take advantage of "off-
peak" electricity prices) using the auto timer equipped with the delayed start function (according to
model).
When opening the door after the pyrolysis cleaning session, you will notice a little whitish residue
on the walls of the oven. When the oven is completely clean, simply wipe this
with a damp sponge to remove it.
In order to avoid excessive spitting or splashing during cooking always check:
- That the correct cooking positions recommended in the instructions are
observed at all times.
- The correct oven level height setting is used.
- The correct temperature is used.
If, despite all this, a large piece of meat still leads to spitting and smoking, you should
reduce the power of the oven.
