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 lit, the THERMOSTAT indicator light indicates
that the oven is heating up to the temperature set.
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
with the SELECTOR
knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected.

Clock with Country Style timer *
How to reset the correct time
The oven must be plugged in.
Pull the knob and turn it clockwise 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 clockwise 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.
