•For installation to comply with current safety
regulations, an all-pole disconnect switch with
minimum contact gap of 3 mm must be used.
•Do not use multiple plug adaptors if the oven is fitted
with a plug.
•Do not use extension leads.
•Do not pull the power supply cable.
•The electrical components must not be accessible to
the user after installation.
•If the surface of the induction plate is cracked, do not
use it and switch off the appliance to avoid the
possibility of electric shock (only for models with
induction function).
•Do not touch the appliance with any wet part of the
body and do not operate it when barefoot.
•This appliance is designed solely for use as a domestic
appliance for cooking food. No other type of use is
permitted (e.g.: heating rooms).
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for
inappropriate use or incorrect setting of the controls.
•The appliance and its accessible parts become hot
during use.
•Care should be taken to avoid touching heating
elements.
•Very young (0-3 years) and young children (3-8 years)
shall be kept away unless continuously supervised.
•Children of 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge, can use this appliance
6
only if they are supervised or have been given
instructions on safe appliance use and understand the
hazards involved. Children must not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be
performed by children without supervision.
•During and after use, do not touch the heating
elements or interior surfaces of the appliance – risk of
burns. Do not allow the appliance to come into
contact with cloths or other flammable materials until
all the components have cooled down completely.
•At the end of cooking, exercise caution when opening
the appliance door, letting the hot air or steam exit
gradually before accessing the oven. When the
appliance door is shut, hot air is vented from the
aperture above the control panel. Do not obstruct the
vent apertures.
•Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories,
taking care not to touch the heating elements.
•Do not place flammable materials in or near the

remain vigilant when cooking foods rich in fat and oil.
•Never leave the appliance unattended during food
drying.
•If alcoholic beverages are used when cooking foods
7
(e.g. rum, cognac, wine), remember that alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. As a result, there is a
risk that vapours released by the alcohol may catch
fire upon coming into contact with the electrical
heating element.
•Never use steam cleaning equipment.
•Do not touch the oven during the pyrolysis cycle.
Keep children away from the oven during the pyrolysis
cycle. Any excess spillage must be removed from the
oven cavity before the cleaning cycle (only for ovens
with Pyrolysis function).
•During and after the pyrolysis cycle, the animals have
to be kept away from the area of the appliance
location (only for ovens with Pyrolysis function).
•Use only the temperature probe recommended for
this oven.
•
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass as they can scratch
the surface, which may result in the glass shattering.
•
Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing
the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
•Do not use aluminium foil to cover food in the cooking
vessel (only for ovens with a cooking vessel supplied).
SCRAPPING OF HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES
• This appliance is manufactured with recyclable or reusable materials. Scrap
the appliance in accordance with local regulations on waste disposal. Before

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 different foods at the same time
Using the "FORCED AIR" function, you can cook different foods which require the same cooking
temperature at the same time (for example: fish and vegetables), using different shelves. 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 fillings (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 filling.
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
flavour. 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 first 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.

Recommended use and tips
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.
Rising function (only in some models)
It is always best to cover the dough with a damp cloth before placing it in the oven. Dough proving time
with this function is reduced by approximately one third compared to proving at room temperature (20-
25°C). Proving time for a 1 Kg batch of pizza dough is around one hour.
