THANK YOU FOR BUYING OUR PRODUCT.
Before using the appliance carefully read the Safety Instruction.
USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME
HEAT THE OVEN
A new oven may release odours that have been left behind during
manufacturing: this is completely normal.Before starting to cook food,
we therefore recommend heating the oven with it empty in order
to remove any possible odours. Remove any protective cardboard
or transparent lm from the oven and remove any accessories from
inside it. Heat the oven to 250 °C for about one hour: The oven must be
empty during this time. Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.
Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the appliance for the
rst time.

third shelf for cooking. This function is also suitable for cooking frozen
convenience foods; follow the instructions on the food packaging.

GRILL
To grill steak, kebabs and sausages, to cook vegetables au gratin
and to toast bread. Preheat the oven for 3-5min. During cooking the

RECOMMENDED USE AND TIPS
How to read the cooking table
The table indicates the best function to use for any given food, to
be cooked on one or more shelves at the same time. Cooking times
start from the moment food is placed in the oven, excluding pre-
heating (where required). Cooking temperatures and times are purely
for guidance and will depend on the amount of food and type of
accessory used. Use the lowest recommended values to begin with
and, if the food is not cooked enough, then move on to higher values.
Use the accessories supplied and preferably dark coloured metal cake
tins and oven trays. You can also use pans and accessories in pyrex or
stoneware, but bear in mind that cooking times will be slightly longer.
To obtain best results, carefully follow the advice given in the cooking
table for the choice of accessories (supplied) to be placed on the
various shelves.
Cooking dierent foods at the same time
Using the “CONVECTION BAKE” function, you can cook dierent foods
which require the same cooking temperature at the same time (for
example: sh and vegetables), using dierent shelves. Switch leveles
two-thirds through cooking if necessary. Remove the food which
requires less cooking time and leave food which requires longer
cooking time in the oven.
Desserts
Cook delicate desserts with the conventional function on one shelf
only. Use dark coloured metal cake tins and always position them
on the wire shelf supplied. To cook on more than one shelf, select
the forced air function and stagger the position of the cake tins on
the shelves, aiding optimum circulation of the hot air.
To check whether a raising cake is cooked, insert a wooden
toothpick into the centre of the cake. If the toothpick comes out
clean, the cake is ready.
If using non-stick cake tins, do not butter the edges as the cake
may not rise evenly around the edges.
If the cake “sinks” during cooking, set a lower temperature the
next time, perhaps reducing the amount of liquid in the mixture
and mixing more gently.
For sweets with moist llings (cheesecake or fruit pies) use
the “CONVECTION BAKE” function. If the base of the cake is
soggy, lower the shelf and sprinkle the bottom of the cake with
breadcrumbs or biscuit crumbs before adding the lling.
Meat
Use any kind of oven tray or pyrex dish suited to the size of the
piece of meat being cooked. For roast joints, it is best to add some
stock to the bottom of the dish, basting the meat during cooking
for added avour. When the roast is ready, let it rest in the oven for
another 10-15 minutes, or wrap it in aluminium foil.
When you want to grill meat, choose cuts with an even thickness
all over in order to achieve uniform cooking results. Very thick
pieces of meat require longer cooking times. To prevent the meat
from burning on the outside, lower the position of the wire shelf,
keeping the food farther away from the grill. Turn the meat two
thirds of the way through cooking.
To collect the cooking juices it is advisable to place a drip-tray with half
a litre of water directly under the grill on which the meat is placed. Top-
up when necessary.
Turnspit (only in some models)
Use this accessory to evenly roast large pieces of meat and poultry.
Place the meat on the turnspit rod, tying it with string if chicken, and
check that it is secure before inserting the rod in the seat located on
the front wall of the oven and resting it on the respective support. To
prevent smoke and to collect cooking juices, it is advisable to place a
drip-tray with half a litre of water on the rst level. The rod has a plastic
handle which must be removed before starting to cook, and used at
the end of cooking to avoid burns when taking the food out of the
oven.
Pizza
Lightly grease the trays to ensure the pizza has a crispy base. Scatter
the mozzarella over the pizza two thirds of the way through cooking.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the oven has cooled down before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning. Do not use steam cleaners. Do not
use wire wool, abrasive scourers or abrasive/corrosive cleaning agents, as these could damage the surfaces of the appliance. Wear
protective gloves. The oven must be disconnected from the mains before carrying out any kind of maintenance work.
EXTERIOR SURFACES
Clean surfaces with a damp microbre cloth. If they are very dirty,
add a few drops of pH -neutral detergent. Finish o with a dry cloth.
Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergents. If any of these products
inadvertently comes into contact with the surfaces of the appliance,
clean immediately with a damp microbre cloth.
INTERIOR SURFACES
After every use, leave the oven to cool and then clean it, preferably
while it is still warm, to remove any deposits or stains caused by
food residues. To dry any condensation that has formed as a result
of cooking foods with a high water content, leave the oven to cool
completely and then wipe it with a cloth or sponge. Clean the glass in
the door with a suitable liquid detergent.
ACCESSORIES
Soak the accessories in a washing-up liquid solution after use, handling
them with oven gloves if they are still hot. Food residues can be
removed using a washing-up brush or a sponge.
LOWER THE TOP HEATING ELEMENT (Only in some models)
The top heating element of the grill can be lowered to clean the upper
panel of the oven. Remove the side accessory lateral shelves. Pull
the heating element out a little (1) and lower it (2). To reposition the
heating element, lift it up, pulling it slightly towards you, making sure it
comes to rest on the lateral support (3).
