Start-up and use
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum 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 8 with the SELECTOR knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected.
How to use the timer *
1. To set the buzzer, turn the TIMER knob clockwise almost one complete revolution.
2. Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time: align the minutes shown on the knob with the indicator on the control panel.
3. The timer operates in minutes: when the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer will sound.
! The timer does not turn the oven on or off. Clock with Country Style timer *
How to reset the correct time
The oven must be plugged in.
Pull the knob and turn it anticlockwise until you set the correct time.
! The programmer is electrically powered, therefore in the event of a power shortage, it will stop working for the entire duration of the same. Following this power failure, the correct time will have to be reset.
Timer Feature
The timer feature allows you to enter a given amount of time from which the timer begins to count down. This feature does not turn the oven on or off; it merely sounds when the time has elapsed.
How to set the timer
Turn the knob anticlockwise until the marker lines up with the desired time (internal scale), which can be seen in the “window”.
The time countdown will begin immediately.
To interrupt the timer buzzer, or to use only the clock feature, set the marker to the ! symbol.
