THERMOSTAT indicator light  
Setting the time  
GB  
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat.  
It switches off when the inside of the oven reaches  
the selected temperature. At this point the light  
illuminates and switches off alternately, indicating  
that the thermostat is working and is maintaining the  
temperature at a constant level.  
In order to use the timer, it must be wound by turning  
the TIMER knob almost one complete turn in the  
clockwise direction  
. Then, turning it back  
, set  
the desired time by lining up the number for the  
minutes with the mark on the control panel.

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 emit a slightly

unpleasant odour caused by protective substances  
used during the manufacturing process burning away.  
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven;  
this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.  
! 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 emit a  
slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective  
substances used during the manufacturing process  
burning away.  
In order to cool down the temperature of their exterior,  
some models are fitted with a cooling fan that comes on  
when the programme selector knob is turned. In this  
case, the fan is always on and a normal flow of air can  
be heard exiting between the oven door and the control  
panel.  
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking  
modes  
between 50°C and Max, except for the following  
modes  
• MAXI-GRILL / MINI-GRILL (recommended: set only  
to MAX power level)  
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).  
Note: when cooking is done, the fan stays on, even  
if knob is set to “0”, until the oven has cooled  
down sufficiently.  
In "Fast cooking" mode, the fan comes on automatically  
only when the oven is hot.  
Once you have removed the food from the oven, we  
recommend you leave the oven door ajar for a few  
minutes: this will drastically reduce the duration of the  
cooling cycle. The process is controlled by an additional  
thermostat and can consist of one or more cycles.  
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode  
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come  
on. When using 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 in an uneven  
manner.  
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the  
SELECTOR knob.  
2. Select the recommended temperature for the  
cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning  
the THERMOSTAT knob.  
BAKING mode  
A list detailing cooking modes and suggested  
cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant  
table (see Oven cooking advice table).  
The rear heating element and the fan are switched  
on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a  
delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire  
oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking  
temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that  
need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3  
shelves simultaneously.  
During cooking it is always possible to:  
• 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.  
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Z
PIZZA mode  
MULTILEVEL  
GB  
The circular heating elements and the elements at  
the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan is  
activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly by  
producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly  
from the element at the bottom. If you use more than  
one rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes  
halfway through the cooking process.  
• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food that  
requires more heat on the rack in position 2.  
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack  
on top.  
GRILL  
• When using the GRILL cooking mode, place the  
rack in position 4 and the dripping pan in position 1  
to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).  
When using the GRATIN cooking mode, place the  
rack in position 2 or 3 and the dripping pan in  
position 1 to collect cooking residues.  
• We recommend that the power level is set to  
maximum. The top heating element is regulated by  
a thermostat and may not always operate  
constantly.  
MULTI-COOKING mode  
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular)  
switch on and the fan begins to operate. Since the  
heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air  
cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A  
maximum of two racks may be used at the same  
time.  
MINI-GRILL mode  
PIZZA MODE  
The central part of the top heating element is  
switched on. The high and direct temperature of the  
grill is recommended for food that requires a high  
surface temperature (veal and beef steaks, fillet  
steak and entrecôte). This cooking mode uses a  
limited amount of energy and is ideal for grilling small  
dishes. Place the food in the centre of the rack, as it  
will not be cooked properly if it is placed in the  
corners.  
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the  
rack provided.  
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as  
it prevents the crust from forming by extending the  
total cooking time.  
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend  
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza  
halfway through the cooking process.  
Cooking modes for Conventional main  
oven (2nd oven)  
MAXI-GRILL mode  
All the top heating element are activated .  
! 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 emit a  
slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective  
substances used during the manufacturing process  
burning away.  
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking  
modes  
between 60°C and Max, except for the following  
modes  
GRATIN mode  
e
The top heating element and the rotisserie (where  
present) are activated and the fan begins to operate.  
This combination of features increases the  
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation  
provided by the heating elements through forced  
circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps  
prevent food from burning on the surface and allows  
the heat to penetrate right into the food.  
! The GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes must be  
performed with the oven door shut.  
• MAXI-GRILL / MINI-GRILL (recommended: set only  
to MAX power level)  
Practical cooking advice  
Starting the oven  
! Do not place racks in position 1 or 5 during fan-  
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn  
temperature sensitive foods.  
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the  
SELECTOR knob.  
2. Select the recommended temperature for the

MINI GRILL  
GB  
The top central heating element comes on.  
During cooking it is always possible to:  
• Change the cooking mode by turning the  
SELECTOR knob.  
• Change the temperature by turning the  
THERMOSTAT knob.  
• Set the total cooking time and the cooking end  
time (see below).  
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to  
the “0” position.  
The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill  
makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and  
roasts while locking in the juices to keep them  
tender. The grill is also highly recommended for  
dishes that require a high temperature on the surface:  
beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...  
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical  
Cooking Advice” paragraph.  
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the  
oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being  
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when  
cooking with the rotisserie spit.  
MAXI GRILL  
The top heating element comes on.  
This mode can be used to brown food at the end of  
cooking.  
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

the light is switched on without any of the heating  
elements being activated.  
Using the grill pan kit  
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode  
Position the handle on the grill pan so that it fits into  
the small recess (fig. 1), tilt it upwards and slide it  
towards the centre (fig. 2).  
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come  
on. When using 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 in an uneven  
manner.  
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.  
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The  
best results are achieved by placing the oven rack  
on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into  
the grill pan will make the collection of grease  
particles more efficient and prevent the formation of  
smoke.  
PASTRY Mode  
The bottom heating element comes on.  
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate  
foods - especially cakes that need to rise because  
the heat coming from the bottom helps the leavening  
process.  
Please note that it takes a considerable amount of  
time for the higher temperatures to be reached,  
therefore we recommend you use the “Convection

Using the glass  
ceramic hob  
Residual heat indicator light (D)  
! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of  
grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we  
recommend you remove these with a special non-  
abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours  
of use there may be a smell of rubber which will  
disappear very quickly.  
GB  
This indicates that one or more cooking zones are at a  
temperature greater than 60°C, even after the cooking  
zones have been switched off. The hob is fitted with 4  
residual heat indicator lights, one for each cooking zone.  
Advice for the operation of the ceramic glass  
hob  
Description of the heating elements  
To achieve the best results using your hob, there are  
several basic suggestions which should be taken into  
account while cooking or preparing food.  
• Use pans with a flat base so as to ensure the pan  
adheres properly to the cooking zone.  
• Always use pans with a diameter which is large  
enough to cover the cooking zone fully, in order to use  
all the available heat.  
The radiant elements “A-B-C” consist of circular heating  
elements. These become red a few seconds after they  
have been switched on.  
They are extremely easy to use because they are similar  
to the other heating elements. Please refer to table 1.  
Control knobs  
Each cooking zone is fitted with a control knob “E”,  
which can be used to continuously adjust the tempe-  
rature intensity level to values between a minimum of  
1
and  
a
maximum of 12. Table1 lists the  
correspondences between the positions indicated on  
the knob and the use for which the hotplates are  
recommended.  
The “A-B” hotplate control knob usually only activates  
• Make sure that pan bases are always clean and dry,  
in order to guarantee perfect contact with the hob and  
to safeguard the durability of the hotplates and the  
pans themselves.  
• Do not use cookware which has been used with gas  
burners. The concentration of heat from gas burners is  
such that it may warp the base of the pan, and therefore  
the desired result will never be achieved if it is then  
used on the glass ceramic hob.

Precautions and tips  
! This appliance has been designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards.  
The following warnings are provided for safety reasons and  
must be read carefully.  
• If the surface of the hob is cracked, switch off the  
appliance to prevent electric shocks from occurring.  
• Remember that the temperature of the cooking zones  
remains relatively high for at least thirty minutes after they  
have been switched off.  
GB  
• Keep any object that could melt away from the hob, for  
example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a  
high sugar content. Keep plastic or aluminium objects away

Disposal  
• When disposing of packaging material: observe local  
legislation so that the packaging may be reused.  
• Make sure that the power supply cables of other electrical  
appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of  
the oven.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that  
household appliances should not be disposed of using the  
normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances  
should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost  
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,  
while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and  
to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all  
products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding  
separated waste collection.  
• The openings used for the ventilation and dispersion of  
heat must never be covered.  
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the  
oven or when removing it.  
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...) near  
the appliance while it is in use.  
• Always make sure the knobs are in the “0” position when  
the appliance is not in use.  
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug from  
the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.  
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work without  
having disconnected the appliance from the electricity  
mains.  
For further information relating to the correct disposal of  
exhausted household appliances, owners may contact the  
public service provided or their local dealer.  
Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
• If the appliance breaks down, under no circumstances  
should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself. Repairs  
carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or  
further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact  
Assistance.  
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity  
supply network companies by using the oven in the hours  
between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning.  
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL  
and GRATIN modes: This will achieve improved results  
while saving energy (approximately 10%).  
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.  
• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks,  
but it may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object  
such as a tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance  
from the electricity mains immediately and contact a  
Service Centre.  
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to  
ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere properly  
to the door, thus avoiding heat dispersion.

! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for example,  
products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens),  
stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or  
sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the  
surface beyond repair.  
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity  
supply before carrying out any work on it.

the appliance.  
• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external  
parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using  
a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water  
and neutral soap. Use specialised products for  
the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning,  
rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive  
powders or corrosive substances.  
• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special  
glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and  
dry thoroughly.  
• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable  
scraper (this is not supplied with the appliance).  
Remove spills as soon as possible, without waiting  
for the appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming  
crusty deposits. You can obtain excellent results by  
using a rustproof steel wire sponge - specifically  
designed for glass ceramic surfaces - soaked in  
soapy water.  
• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned  
after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot  
water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with  
a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.  
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a  
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product,  
then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use  
rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers  
as these could scratch the surface and cause the  
glass to crack.  
• If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally  
been melted on the hob, remove them immediately  
with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.  
• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a  
special protective maintenance product: the  
invisible film left by this product protects the  
surface from drips during cooking. This  
maintenance should be carried out while the  
appliance is warm (not hot) or cold.  
• The accessories can be washed like everyday  
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.  
• Dirt and grease should be removed from the control  
panel using a non-abrasive sponge or a soft cloth.  
• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that  
has been left on the surface for a long time, or by  
aggressive detergents containing phosphorus. After  
cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Any

clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can
