Start-up and use

WARNING!

 The oven is 

provided with a stop system 

to extract the racks and 

prevent them from coming 

out of the oven (1).

As shown in the drawing, 

to extract them completely, 

simply lift the racks, holding 

them on the front part, and 

pull (2).

!

 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. Make sure that the room is well ventilated 

before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. 

The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused 

by protective substances used during the manufacturing 

process burning away.

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.

 All settings can only be entered if the oven is connected 

to the mains electricity. In case of blackouts lasting over 10 

seconds, the programmer stops: when current is restored, 

the  CLOCK  icon  flashes  to  indicate  that  a  blackout  has 

occurred and that the time must be set again. 

Setting the time

To adjust the time indicated by the hands, briefly press the 

TIME SETTING knob until the CLOCK icon starts flashing.

Then, to increase or decrease the displayed time setting in 

1-minute steps, turn the knob clockwise or anti-clockwise; 

the minutes hand moves clockwise or anticlockwise 

accordingly, in 1-minute steps.

Once 10 seconds have elapsed since the most recent 

adjustment,  the  programmer  automatically  exits  the 

adjustment mode.

Setting the minute minder

!

 This function does not interrupt cooking nor does it affect 

the oven’s operation; it is simply used to activate the buzzer 

when the set duration has elapsed.

To activate the minute minder, briefly press the TIME 

SETTING knob until the MINUTE MINDER icon starts 

flashing.

To increase or decrease the set duration, turn the TIME 

SETTING knob clockwise or anti-clockwise; the minutes 

hand will move in 1-minute steps.

The  MINUTE  MINDER  icon  flashes  continuously  for  10 

seconds after the most recent rotation. The setting can be 

confirmed by pressing the TIME SETTING knob or letting 

10 seconds elapse, provided that a cooking time of at least 

1 minute has been programmed.

The switched-on MINUTE MINDER icon indicates that the 

duration has been set; the countdown will start immediately.

Select the desired cooking mode using the PROGRAMMES 

knob.

To  view  the  set  duration,  briefly  press  and  release  the 

TIME SETTING knob; the hands and icons will display the 

remaining minutes.

At the end of the set time, the MINUTE MINDER icon 

flashes and the buzzer sounds for 1 minute (to silence it, 

briefly press the knob).

Turn the PROGRAMMES knob to position “0”.

!

 To cancel the setting, press the TIME SETTING knob 

for 3 seconds: the programming will be cancelled and the 

MINUTE MINDER icon will switch off.
