Start-up and use
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
GB
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may
produce a slightly unpleasant odour caused by the
burning away of protective substances used during
the manufacturing process.
Starting the oven
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the
SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the desired temperature with the
THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table for
cooking modes and the suggested cooking
temperatures ( see Cooking Modes ).
3. When preheating is finished, the THERMOSTAT
indicator light will stay on: place the food in the oven.
4. You may do the following during cooking:
- change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR
knob.
- change the temperature by turning the
THERMOSTAT knob.
- stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the
"0" position.
! Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to
avoid damaging the enamel coating.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the
oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that
blows out air between the control panel and the oven
door.
! Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling
fan remains on until the oven has cooled down
sufficiently.
Oven light
It goes on when selecting
knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected.
Cooking modes
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking
modes between 60°C and MAX, except for the GRILL
programme, for which only the MAX power level is
recommended.
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come
on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use
one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used,
the heat will be distributed unevenly.
with the SELECTOR
BAKING mode
The rear heating element and the fan come on,
guaranteeing the distribution of heat delicately and
uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for
baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods
such as cakes that need to rise and to prepare
certain tartlets on 3 shelves simultaneously.
FAST COOKING mode
The heating elements and the fan come on,
guaranteeing the distribution of heat consistently
and uniformly throughout the oven.
Pre-heating is not necessary for this cooking mode.
This mode is especially recommended for cooking
pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The
best results are obtained if you use one cooking
rack only.
MULTI-COOKING mode
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular),
as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat
remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks
and browns food uniformly. A maximum of two racks
may be used at the same time.
PIZZA mode
The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as
the fan, will come on. This combination heats the
oven rapidly by producing a considerable amount of
heat, particularly from the bottom element. If you
use more than one rack simultaneously, switch the
position of the dishes halfway through the cooking
process.
BARBECUE mode
The top heating element comes on.
The high and direct temperature of the grill is
recommended for food that requires high surface
temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed.
GRATIN mode
The top heating element, as well as the fan, will
come on. This combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation
of the heating elements through forced circulation of
the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food
from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to
penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this
mode with the oven door closed.
Practical cooking advice
! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn
temperature sensitive foods.
! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes,
place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect
cooking residues (fat and/or grease).
