Cookware
Ideally, cookware should have a flat
bottom, straight sides, a tight-fitting lid and
medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough cookware finishes may scratch the
cooktop. Aluminum and copper may be
used in cookware as a core material or for
the base. However, when used as a base
they can leave permanent marks on the
cooktop or grates.
Cookware properties are a factor in how
quickly and evenly heat is distributed, which
affects cooking results. A non-stick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material.
For example, a non-stick finish on aluminum
cookware will take on the properties of
aluminum.
Refer to the following chart as a guide to
the physical properties of cookware.
Aluminum
Heats quickly and evenly.
Suitable for all types of cooking.
Medium or heavy thickness is best for
most cooking tasks.
Cast iron
Heats slowly and evenly.
Good for browning and frying.
Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or glass-ceramic
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Heats slowly but unevenly.
Best results with low to medium heat
settings.
Copper
Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Use low heat settings.
Porcelain enameled steel or cast iron
See stainless steel or cast iron.
Stainless steel
Heats quickly but unevenly.
Stainless steel cookware with an
aluminum or copper core or bottom
provides even heating.

NOTE: If there is no power, the
cooling fan will not work. Do not
try to switch on the oven manually.
BAKE
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 static 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.
CONV BOTTOM
The combination of the fan with just the
bottom heating element allows cooking to
be completed more rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilizing 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.
BROIL
Using the heat released from the central
part of the broil element, this function allows
you to grill small portions of meat and fish
for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches
and any types of grilled vegetable side
dishes
BROIL MAX
The heat coming from the whole broil
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. This function is perfect
for sausages, ribs and ham. This function
enables large quantities of food,
particularly meat, to be grilled evenly.
CONV BROIL
The airflow produced by the fan softens the
strong heatwave generated by the broil
element, grilling perfectly even very thick
foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g.
shin of pork).

TRUE CONV
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.
STEAM CLEAN
This function makes cleaning easier using
the steam produced by a little quantity of
water poured onto the appropriate groove
placed on the bottom (see “Steam clean
function”).
DEFROST (Rapid)
Rapid defrost is assisted by the activation of
a fan to ensure uniform distribution of room
temperature air inside the oven. This
function can be used for any type of food.
PIZZA
The operation of the fan, combined with the
broil and the bottom heating element,
ensures uniform cooking even with complex
recipes. Perfect not just for pizzas, but also

2.6 Using the temperature probe
With the temperature probe, roasts, pork
loin and various cuts and sizes of meat can
be cooked to perfection.
The probe, in fact, allows foods to be
cooked to perfection because it accurately
monitors the core temperature of the food.
The core temperature of the food is
measured by a sensor located in the tip of
the probe.
High temperature of the
temperature probe

EN
Positioning the probe
1. Place the food on a tray.
2. Insert the tip of the probe into the food
before placing it in the oven.
3. For best results, make sure that the
temperature probe is placed transversely
in the thickest part of the food and for
least 3/4 of its length. Make sure that it
does not touch the tray underneath and
that it does not protrude from the food.
Cooking using the temperature probe
With preheating:
1. Set manual cooking (see “Using the
oven”).
2. After preheating, open the door and
insert the tray onto which the food has
been placed into the appropriate
guides.
3. Insert the plug of the probe into the
socket at the side, using the probe to
open the cover.
In order for the probe to measure
the core temperature of the food
precisely, its tip must not be in
contact with bones or fat.
The minimum recommended oven
temperature when cooking using
the probe is 250°F, unless slow
cooking is used (see Chap. 2.7).

2.7 Cooking advice
General advice
Use pans/trays with a maximum width of
33-35 cm.
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).
It is recommended to preheat the oven
before baking.
Using several ovens at the same time
might affect the final cooking results.
Advice for cooking meat
Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
Turn the food to brown both sides.
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 Broiler
Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into a cold oven or into a preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
When using the Broil function, preheat
the oven for 15 minutes before cooking.
Cooking times may vary depending on
the thickness of the food.
We recommend placing the food at the
center of the rack.
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.
Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits
Temperature and 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 batter does not stick
to the toothpick, the dessert is done.
If the dessert collapses when it comes out
of the oven, on the next occasion reduce
the set temperature by about 50°F,
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.
background
Use

Tips for cooking on two shelves:
Use a fan-assisted function to achieve
uniform cooking at several levels. Use
shelves 2 and 4.
It is recommended to use 2 racks (can
be requested from Authorized Assistance
Centers).
To facilitate the flow of air, place the
molds/pans in the center of the racks
and make sure that their width/diameter
does not exceed 30 cm.
Position the racks keeping an empty level
between them.
Depending on the food and the
increased load in the oven, cooking on
two levels may take a few minutes longer
than on a single shelf.
The functions indicated for cooking on
two shelves are THERMO-FAN-
ASSISTED and THERMO-FAN-
ASSISTED BASE.
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 a 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 tenderest parts of the food can be
protected with aluminum foil.
For successful rising, a container of water
should be placed at the bottom of the
oven.
To save energy
Unless otherwise indicated on the
packaging, defrost frozen food before
placing it in the oven.
In case of multiple cooking, it is
advisable to cook the products one after
the other to make the most of the already
hot oven.
Use preferably dark metal molds: they
help to absorb the heat better.
Remove all trays and racks which are not
required during cooking.
Stop cooking a few minutes before the
time normally used. Cooking will
continue for the remaining minutes with
the heat that 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.
Slow cooking with the probe
• This cooking mode is recommended for
tender and lean meat whose core
temperature should not exceed 65°C
(149°F). Set the temperature of the oven
to between 90° (194°F) and 100°C
(212°F). This increases the cooking time,
but maintains the quality of the food and
prevents an excessive reduction in its
volume.
For a better result, before slow cooking,
brown the meat in a pan over high heat
for 1 or 2 minutes on each side.
