Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put into the cold oven or into the preheated oven if you wish to change the effect of the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the centre of the rack.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: At the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.
Advice for defrosting and proving
• Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the oven.
To save energy
• Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has accumulated inside the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.
• (Where fitted) When it is not being used, remove the pizza plate and put the cover back in its slot.

This mode allows the appliance to keep cooked food warm (at low temperatures) for around an hour after cooking finishes with a cooking cycle for which a duration has been set (if this is not manually interrupted).
Light timing mode
For greater energy savings, the light is automatically deactivated one minute from the start of cooking.
To stop the appliance from automatically deactivating the light after one minute, set this mode to OFF.
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.
Ordinary daily cleaning
Always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they will damage the surfaces. Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth. Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the enamel lining of the oven.
Removing the door
For easier cleaning, the door can be removed and placed on a canvas. To remove the door proceed as follows: 1. Open the door completely and insert two pins into the holes on the hinges indicated in the figure.
2. Grasp the door on both sides with both hands, lift it forming an angle of around 30° and remove it.
3. To reassemble the door, put the hinges in the relevant slots in the oven, making sure that grooved sections A are resting completely in the slots. Lower the door and once it is in place remove the pins from the holes in the hinges.
Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll. In case of stubborn dirt, wash with a damp sponge and an ordinary detergent.
Removing the internal glass panes
For easier cleaning the door internal glass panes can be disassembled.
1. Remove the internal glass pane by pulling the rear part gently upwards, following the movement indicated by the arrows (1).
2. Then, pull the front part upwards (2) In this way, the 4 pins attached to the glass detach from their housings in the oven door.
3. Some models have an intermediate glass pane. Remove the intermediate glass pane by lifting it upwards
4. Clean the external glass pane and the panes previously removed. Use absorbent kitchen roll. In case of stubborn dirt, wash with a damp sponge and neutral detergent.
5. Refit the panes in the reverse order in which they were removed.
6. Reposition the internal glass pane. Take care to centre and insert the 4 pins into their housings in the oven door by applying slight pressure.
Cleaning the inside of the oven
For the best oven upkeep, clean it regularly after having allowed it to cool. Take out all removable parts. Clean the oven racks with warm water and non-abrasive detergent. Carefully rinse and dry damp parts.
Removing racks/trays support frames
Removing the guide frames enables the sides to be cleaned more easily. This operation should be performed each time the automatic cleaning cycle is used (on some models only).
To remove the guide frames: Pull the frame towards the inside of the oven to unhook it from its groove A, then slide it out of the seats B at the back.
When cleaning is complete, repeat the above procedures to put the guide frames back in.
On pizza models only:
Remove in sequence the pizza plate cover (1) and the base (2) on which it is placed. The base has to be lifted a few millimetres, then pulled outwards.
Lift the end of the lower heating element (3) a few centimetres and clean the oven base.
Put the pizza plate base back in place, pushing it in until it hits the back of the oven, and push it down so that the heating element plate is embedded into the base itself.
Cleaning the pizza plate
The pizza plate should be washed separately according to the following instructions:
Pyrolytic models: Leave the pizza stone inside and activate the pyrolysis function, then at the end, when the stone has cooled down to lukewarm, wipe it with a damp microfibre cloth to remove any residues.
Multifunction models: The stone must be cleaned after every use. Do not heat it again if it has any encrustations. To clean, pour 50 cc of vinegar onto the stone, leave it to act for 10 minutes, then remove it by wiping with a metallic mesh or abrasive sponge. Rinse with water then leave to dry.
• Before cleaning, remove any dirt burnt onto the stone with the aid of a metal spatula or a scraper of the kind used for cleaning glass-ceramic hobs.
• For best results, the stone must still be warm; otherwise, wash it in hot water.
• Use metal mesh sponges or abrasive scotch-brite pads, dipped in lemon or vinegar.
• Never use detergents.
• Never wash in the dishwasher.
• Never leave the stone to soak.
• The damp stone must not be used for a least 8 hours after the end of the cleaning procedures.
• Over time, slight cracks may appear on the surface of the stone. This is due to the normal expansion caused by high temperatures of the enamel coating the stone.
Extraordinary maintenance
Replacing the internal light bulb
1. Completely remove all accessories from inside the oven.
2. Remove the racks/trays support frames.
3. Remove the bulb cover using a tool (e.g. a screwdriver).
4. Slide out and remove the lamp.
5. Replace the lamp with one of the same type (40W).
6. Refit the cover correctly, so that the moulded part of the glass is facing the door.
7. Press the cover completely down so that it attaches perfectly to the bulb support
What to do if...
The display is completely off:
• Check the mains power supply.
• Check whether an omnipolar switch upstream of the appliance supply line is in the “ON” position.
The appliance does not heat up:
• Check whether it has been set in “showroom” mode (for further details see “Secondary menu”).
The controls do not respond:
• Check whether it has been set in “child lock” mode (for further details see “Secondary menu”).
The cooking times are longer than those indicated in the table:
• Check whether it has been set in “low power” mode (for further details see “Secondary menu”).
After the (pyrolytic) automatic cleaning cycle it is not possible to select a function:
• Verify whether the door lock has deactivated. If it has not, the oven has a safety device that does not allow functions to be selected while the door lock is active. This is because the temperature inside the oven is still too high to permit any type of cooking.
The display shows “ERR4”:
• The door lock has not properly attached to the door. This might be because the door was accidentally opened during the door lock activation. Switch the oven off and on again, waiting a few minutes before selecting a new cleaning cycle.
If the door is opened during a fan assisted function, the fan stops:
• This is not a fault. It is a normal operation of the appliance, useful when cooking foods in order to avoid excessive heat escaping. When the door is closed, the oven will return to normal operation.
