Functions list

Convection

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 convection 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.

Baker’s function

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.

Small grill

Using only the heat released from the central element, this function enables small portions of meat and fish to be grilled for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and all types of grilled vegetable side dishes.

The rotisserie is not present on this appliance.

The rotisserie is only available as a kit purchased separately.

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

Fan 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. pork hock).

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 shelf).

Fan forced

The combination of the fan and the circular 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.

Bottom

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.

Rapid defrost

Rapid defrost is helped by switching on the fan provided and the top heating element that ensure uniform distribution of low temperature air inside the oven.

Eco

Using the grill and the lower heating element in combination is particularly suitable for cooking on a single shelf, as it provides low energy consumption. Ideal for cooking meat, fish and vegetables.

Not recommended for desserts which must rise.

Vapour Clean

This function makes cleaning easier using the steam produced by a small quantity of water poured onto the appropriate groove placed on the bottom.

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 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 grill function, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend that you turn the temperature knob to the maximum value near the symbol to optimise cooking.
• Foods should be seasoned before cooking. Foods should also be coated with oil or melted butter before cooking.
• Use the oven tray on the first bottom shelf to collect fluids produced by grilling.
• Grilling processes should never last more than 60 minutes.

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.
• While cooking desserts or vegetables, excessive condensation may form on the glass. In order to avoid this, open the door very carefully a couple of times while cooking.

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.

Cleaning and maintenance

Instructions

Improper use

Risk of damage to surfaces

• Do not use steam jets to clean the appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. scouring powders, stain removers and metallic sponges) on glass parts.
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers.
• Do not wash the removable components such as the cooktop grids, flame-spreader crowns and burner caps in a dishwasher.

Cleaning the appliance

We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.

Recommendations for cleaning the cooktop

To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Cleaning the cooktop

1. Pour some non-abrasive detergent on a damp cloth and wipe down the surfaces.
2. Rinse thoroughly.
3. Dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Cleaning the cooktop grids, flamespreader crowns and burner caps

1. Remove the components from the cooktop.
2. Clean them with warm water and nonabrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations.
3. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
4. Replace the components on the cooktop.

Continuous contact between the grids and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the operation of this component.

Cleaning the igniters and thermocouples

• If necessary, clean the igniters and thermocouples with a damp cloth.
• If there is any dry residue, remove it with a toothpick or needle.

Recommendations for cleaning the oven cavity

For the best oven upkeep, clean it regularly after having allowed it to cool.

Avoid letting food residue dry inside the oven cavity, as this could damage the enamel.

Take out all removable parts before cleaning.

For easier cleaning, we recommend removing:

• The door
• The rack/tray support frames
• The oven seal.

In the event you are using specific cleaning products, we recommend running the oven at maximum temperature for 15-20 minutes in order to eliminate any residue.

Removing the door

For easier cleaning, the door can be removed and placed on a tea towel. 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.

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.

Vapour Clean

Vapour Clean is an assisted cleaning procedure which facilitates the removal of dirt.

Thanks to this process, it is possible to clean the inside of the oven very easily. The dirt residues are softened by the heat and water vapour for easier removal at a later stage.

Improper use

Risk of damage to surfaces

• Remove any food residues or large spills from previous cooking operations from the inside of the oven.
• Carry out assisted oven cleaning operations only when the oven is cold.

Preliminary operations

Before starting the Vapour Clean function:

• Completely remove all accessories from inside the oven.
• Pour approximately 40 cc of water into the tray. Make sure it does not overflow out of the cavity

• Spray a water and washing up liquid solution inside the oven using a spray nozzle. Direct the spray against the side walls, upwards, downwards and towards the deflector.

• Close the door.

We recommend spraying approx. 20 times at the most.

Vapour Clean setting

1. Turn the function knob to the symbol and the temperature knob to the symbol .

2. Set a cooking time of 18 minutes using the programmer clock.

The Vapour Clean cycle starts a few seconds after the last press on the programmer clock keys.

3. At the end of the Vapour Clean cycle, the timer will deactivate the oven heating elements, the buzzer will start to sound and the numbers on the programmer clock dial will flash.

End of the Vapour Clean cycle

4. Open the door and wipe away the less stubborn dirt with a microfibre cloth.

5. Use an anti-scratch sponge with brass filaments on tougher encrustations.

6. In case of grease residues use specific oven cleaning products.

7. Remove the water left inside the oven.

For improved hygiene and to avoid food being affected by any unpleasant odours, we recommend that the oven is dried using a fan assisted function at 160°C for approximately 10 minutes.

We recommend wearing rubber gloves for these operations.

For easier manual cleaning of the parts difficult to reach, we recommend removing the door.

Adaptation to different types of gas

In case of operation with other types of gas, the burner nozzles must be changed and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas cocks.

Replacing nozzles

1. Remove the pan stands, burner caps and flame-spreader crowns to access the burner casings.

2. Replace the nozzles using a 7 mm socket wrench according to the gas to use (see “Burner and nozzle characteristics table”).

3. Replace the burners in the correct position.

Adjusting the minimum setting for natural or city gas

Light the burner and turn it to the minimum position. Extract the gas cock knob and turn the adjustment screw next to the cock rod (depending on the model) until the correct minimum flame is achieved.

Refit the knob and verify that the burner flame is stable.

Turn the knob rapidly from the maximum to the minimum setting: the flame should not go out. Repeat the operation on all gas cocks.

Adjusting the minimum setting for LPG

Tighten the screw located at the side of the cock rod clockwise all the way

Following adjustment to a gas other than the one originally set in the factory, replace the gas setting label fixed to the appliance with the one corresponding to the new gas. The label is inserted inside the nozzle pack (where present).

Lubrication of gas cocks

Over time the gas cocks may become difficult to turn and get blocked. Clean them internally and replace the lubrication grease.

The greasing of the gas cocks should be performed by authorised persons.
