required to rectify faults arising from incorrect installation, this
assistance is not covered by the guarantee.
The installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel
must be followed. Incorrect installation may cause harm or injury to
people, animals or belongings. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for such harm or injury.
The kitchen unit in which the oven is to be fitted must be made of
material resistant to temperatures of at least 70°C.
The oven can be located high in a column or under a worktop.
Before fixing: you must ensure good ventilation in the oven space
to allow proper circulation of the fresh air required for cooling and
protecting the internal parts. Make the openings specified on last
page according to the type of fitting.

This appliances complies with Directives 89/336/EEC,
73/23/EEC and following changes.

SAFETY HINTS
• The oven must be used only for the purpose for which it was
designed: it must only be used for cooking food.
Any other use, e.g. as a form of heating, is an improper use of the
oven and is therefore dangerous.
• The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any damage
caused by improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.
When using any electrical appliance you must follow a few basic
rules.
- Do not pull on the power cable to remove the plug from the socket.
- Do not touch the oven with wet or damp hands or feet.
- Do not use the oven unless you are wearing something on your
feet.
- Do not allow children or irresponsible people to use the oven
unless they are carefully supervised.
- It is not generally a good idea to use adapters, multiple sockets
for several plugs or cable extensions.
- If the oven breaks down or develops a fault switch it off at the
mains and do not touch it.
• If the cable is damaged it must be replaced promptly.
When replacing the cable, follow these instructions.
Remove the power cable and replace it with one of the HO5RR-F,
H05VV-F, H05V2V2-F type. The cable must be able to bear the
electrical current required by the oven. Cable replacement must be
carried out by properly qualified technicians.
The earthing cable (yellow-green) must be 10 mm longer than the
power cable.
Use only an approved service centre for repairs and ensure that only
original parts are used. If the above instructions are not adhered to
the manufacturers cannot guarantee the safety of the oven.
• The oven you have just acquired has the described technical
characteristics and you must not make any modifications to it.
• Never use a steam or high-pressure spray to clean the oven.
• Do not store flammable products in the oven; they can catch fire if
the oven comes on accidentally.
• Do not press on and do not let children sit on the oven door.
• Use kitchen oven gloves, when putting into or removing a dish
from the oven.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT
BY AN APPROVED CONTRACTOR OR TECHNICIAN WITH
SIMILAR QUALIFICATIONS.
The installation receiving the appliance must comply with the
standard in force in the installation country.
The manufacturer does not accept any responsibility if this provision
is not complied with.
Connection to the network must be by earthed socket outlet, or by
means of a multipole circuit-breaker having a distance between
contacts of at least 3 mm.
The installation must be protected by suitable fuses, and have wires
with a large enough cross-section to supply the oven normally.
CONNECTION:
The oven is fitted with a power lead for connecting exclusively to a
voltage of 230 V AC across the phases or across phase and neutral.
Connection must be carried out having first checked:
. the supply voltage indicated on the meter,
. the circuit-breaker setting.
The lead protection wire (green/yellow) connected to the earth
terminal of the oven must be connected to the earth terminal of the
installation.
Caution:
. Have the earth continuity of the installation checked by
an electrician before making the connection.
. The manufacturer will not be liable for any incident, or the
possible consequences that may arise from the use of the
oven not earthed, or connected to an earth with defective
continuity.

RECOMMENDATIONS
• After each use of the oven, a minimum of cleaning will help
keep the oven perfectly clean.
• Do not line the oven walls with aluminium foil or single-use
protection available from stores. Aluminium foil or any other
protection, in direct contact with the hot enamel, risks melting
and deteriorating the enamel of the insides.
• In order to prevent excessive dirtying of your oven and the
resulting strong smoky smells, we recommend not using the
oven at too high a temperature. It is better to extend the cooking
time and lower the temperature a little.
• In addition to the accessories supplied with the oven, we
advise you only use dishes and baking moulds resistant to very
high temperatures.

NB: Do not forget that the oven may require after-sales service. Also,
locate the socket outlet so that the oven can be connected once it is
removed from its space.
Power supply cable: if the power supply cable has to be changed,
please have this done by the after-sales service or by someone with
similar qualifications.

CLEANING THE OVEN

OVEN EQUIPMENT

Wait for the oven to cool down before doing any cleaning by
hand.
. Never clean your oven with abrasive cleaners, wire wool or
sharp objects, or the enamel may be damaged beyond repair.
. Only use soapy water or bleach (ammonia) cleaners.

It is necessary to do an initial cleaning of the equipment before
the first use of each of them. Wash them with a sponge. Rinse
and dry off.
The shelf can take moulds and dishes.

GLASS PARTS
We recommend you wipe clean the glass door with absorbent
kitchen paper every time you use the oven. If the spattering is heavy,
then you can clean with a well squeezed sponge and detergent, and
rinse. Never use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
OVEN DOOR SEAL
If this gets dirty, clean the oven seal with a slightly damp sponge.
ACCESSORIES
Clean them with a sponge soaked in soapy water. Rinse with clean
water and dry off. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
DRIP TRAY
After grilling, remove the drip tray from the oven. Take care to pour
the warm grease into a container. Wash and rinse the drip tray in hot
water with a sponge soaked in washing up liquid.
If residues remain attached, soak them off in water and detergent.
It can also go in a dish washer or be cleaned with a commercial oven
cleaner.
Never placer a soiled drip tray in the oven.
OVEN LIGHTING
Disconnect the power supply from the oven before cleaning or
replacing the lamp.
The bulb and its cover are made of material resistant to high
temperatures.
Bulb characteristics:
230 V AC - 25 W - E 14 base Temperature 300°C

The drip tray catches the juices
from grilled foods.
The pastry tray must be placed on
the shelf. It is for cooking small
pastries like choux, biscuits,
meringues, etc...
Never place the pastry tray directly
on the oven bottom.
When the oven is in use, any unused accessories should be
removed from the oven.

B

Special self-cleaning panels covered in a micro-porous coating are
available as optional extras for all models. If they are fitted, the oven
no longer needs to be cleaned by hand.
The fat that is splattered onto the sides of the oven during roasting is
eliminated by the microporous coating which breaks the fat down by
catalysis and transforms it into gas.
Excessive splattering may nevertheless block the pores and therefore
hinder self-cleaning. The self-cleaning capacity may be restored by
switching on the empty oven to maximum for about 10-20 minutes.
Do not use abrasive products, metal cleaning wads, sharp objects,
rough cloths, or chemical products and detergents that may
permanently damage the catalytic lining.
It is a good idea to use deep roasting trays to roast fatty foods such
as joints of meat etc. and to put a tray underneath the grill to catch
surplus fat.
If the walls of the oven are so thickly coated in grease that the
catalytic lining is no longer effective remove surplus grease with a soft
cloth or sponge soaked in hot water.
The lining must be porous for self-cleaning to be effective.

- ALL COOKING SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE DOOR
CLOSED • NATURAL CONVECTION Both top and bottom heating elements are in use. This method is ideal
for all traditional roasting and baking. When cooking red meat, roast
beef, leg of lamb, game, bread or foil wrapped foods.
• FAN ASSISTED COOKING Both top and bottom heating elements are used in conjunction with the
fan, which circulates hot air throughout the oven. We recommend this
method for poultry, pastries, fish and vegetables. By using this method
better heat penetration is achieved and cooking and preheating times
are also reduced. The fan cooking option allows you to cook different
foods together at different positions in the oven all at the same time,
providing even heat distribution but without the risk of mingling tastes
and smells. When cooking different foods at the same time allow a further
10 minutes.

In this mode the oven is on standby, only the time of day appears
on the display.
1- Turn the function selector knob to the "Manual" position.

• BOTTOM HEAT Using the lower element. Ideal for cooking all pastry based dishes. Use
this for flans, quiches, tarts, pâté and any cooking that needs more heat
and radiation from below.

2- Turn the central button in the appropriate direction for the required
cooking method. See the table above.
Confirm your selection by pressing the central button.
... The cooking method is now set.
The heating elements in operation for the selected cooking
method are displayed.

• BOTTOM HEAT + FAN The combination of the bottom heating element and fan is ideal for fruit
flans, tarts, quiches and pastries. It prevents food from becoming too dry
and encourages bread dough to rise. Place the shelf in the bottom position in the oven.

3- The appropriate temperature according to the cooking method
selected is displayed. It can be modified within a pre-determined range
- see the table above.
To modify the temperature setting, turn the central button and
confirm the setting by pressing the same button.
... the temperature display is fixed but can be modified during
the cooking cycle.

• FAN COOKING - Both top and bottom heating elements are used in
conjunction with the circular heating element, which circulates hot air
throughout the oven. Its definition is the same as that of the Fan Cooking
method.
• GRILL using the top heating element. Success is guaranteed for mixed grills,
kebabs and gratin dishes. The grill should be pre-heated to a high
temperature for 5 minutes. White meats should always be placed at some
distance from the grill element, the cooking time is slightly longer but the
meat will be more succulent. Red meat and fish fillets can be placed
directly onto the shelf with the drip tray placed beneath on lower shelf
position.

The oven will start cooking in "Manual" mode and will start to heat
up.
The indicator light flashes until the selected temperature
has been reached. An audible signal sounds at the end of
this operation.
4- A cooking time and an end of cooking time can be programmed by
turning the programme selector knob to "cooking time" or "end of
cooking time".
The "cooking time" or "end of cooking time" display starts flashing.
Using the central button, modify the settings as required and confirm.
When you have done this, do not forget to turn the programme selector
knob back to STOP to confirm the new setting.
For more details about programming, refer to the chapter entitled
PROGRAMMING.

• GRILL + FAN The top heating element is used in conjunction with the fan which
circulates the hot air around the oven. Pre heating is recommended for
red meats but is not necessary for white meats. Grilling is ideal for cooking
thicker food items such as pork or poultry. Food to be grilled should be
placed directly at the centre of the middle shelf. By sliding the drip tray
underneath the shelf it will ensure that any juices are collected. For best
results always make sure that the food is not too close to the grill element
and turn the food over half way through the cooking time.

5- At the end of the cooking cycle, turn the function selector knob
back to STOP.

15

Meats:
It is better not to salt meats until after cooking as salt encourages the
meat to spatter fat. This will dirty the oven and make a lot of smoke.

PROGAMMATION
DISPLAY SYMBOLS :

Joints of white meat, pork, veal, lamb and fish can be put into the oven
cold. The cooking time is longer than in a preheated oven, but it cooks
through to the centre better as the heat has more time to penetrate the
joint.
Correct preheating is the basis of successful red
meat cookery.
Programmation
control knob

Grills:
• Before loading the grill:
Remove the meat from the refrigerator a few hours before grilling. Lay
it on several layers of kitchen paper: this improves seizing, making it
tastier and avoids it staying cold at the centre.
Add pepper and spices to the meat before grilling, but add any salt
after cooking. This way it will seize better and stay juicy. Baste all the
food to be cooked with a little oil. This is best done with a wide flat
basting brush. Then sprinkle with more pepper and herbs (thyme, etc.).
Load the grill.
• During cooking:
Never pierce the food during cooking even when you turn it. This lets
the juice out and it becomes dry.

THE TIMER:
The timer works independently of the oven and has no effect on the
heating elements. It is simply a reminder.
• Turn the knob to the Timer position. The Timer symbol will
appear. The digits 00:00 will appear on the display.
• The minutes will then flash, turn the central button to the required
number of minutes and confirm by pressing the same button.
• The hours will flash, turn the central button to the required
number of hours and confirm by pressing the same button.
• Turn the knob back to the STOP position.
When the time is up, the cooking time will disappear. An audible
signal will sound for 15 seconds and the Timer display will flash (to
stop it before the 15 seconds are up, just press the central button).

Baking:
Avoid using shiny tins, they reflect the heat and can spoil your cakes. If
your cakes brown too quickly, cover them with grease-proof paper or
aluminium foil. Caution: the correct way to use foil is with the shiny side
in towards the cake. If not the heat is reflected by the shiny surface and
does not penetrate the food. Avoid opening the door during the first 20
to 25 minutes of cooking: soufflés, brioches, sponge cakes, etc. will
tend to fall. You can check if cakes are done by pricking the centre with
a knife blade or metal knitting needle. If the blade comes out nice and
dry, your cake is ready and you can stop cooking. If the blade comes
out moist or with bits of cake attached, continue baking but slightly
lower the thermostat so that it is finished off without burning.

PROGRAMMING THE COOKING TIME:
various recipes are pre-programmed with a cooking time. In Manual
mode, Defrosting or Pizza mode can be pre-set, if required.
• Turn the knob to the Cooking time position. The Cooking time
symbol will appear. A pre-programmed cooking time for the various
recipes will appear, or 00:00 for other functions of the oven.
• With the minutes flashing, turn the central button to the required
number of minutes and confirm by pressing the same
button.
• With the hours flashing, turn the central button to the required
number of hours and confirm by pressing the same button.
• Turn the programme selector knob back to the STOP position to
confirm the new cooking time.
When the time is up, the cooking time will disappear from the
display. An audible signal will sound for 15 seconds and the Cooking
time and STOP symbols will flash.
• Turn the programme selector knob back to STOP. If you do not
do this, the Cooking time and STOP symbols will continue
flashing.
PROGRAMMING THE END OF COOKING TIME:
various recipes are pre-programmed with a cooking time and
therefore with an end of cooking time. In Manual Mode, Defrosting
or Pizza mode can be pre-set, if required.
• Turn the knob to the End of cooking position. The STOP symbol
will appear. A pre-programmed end of cooking time for the various
recipes will appear, or 00:00 for other oven functions or the time of
day will be shown.
• Turn the programme selector knob to confirm the end time.
• The minutes will flash. Turn the central button to indicate the
required number of minutes, and confirm your choice by pressing
the same button.
• The hours will then flash. Turn the central button to indicate the
required number of hours, and confirm your choice by pressing the
same button.

PIZZA MODE - DEFROST MODE
The access for these two functions is direct.
• PIZZA : when the temperature of 230°C is reached, an audible signal
sounds, the food must be placed in the oven. The intense heat generated
when using this function is similar to that produced in traditional woodfired pizza ovens.
.... the temperature is pre-set to a constant 230 degrees C (no
adjustment is available).
• DEFROST : the top and bottom elements are used with the fan circulating
the hot air inside the oven. Wrap the food to be defrosted in aluminium
foil, shiny side out.
.... the temperature is pre-set to constant 40 degrees C (no
adjustment is available).

NB : with a delayed start, the end of programme time will appear on
the display with the "Cooking time" and "STOP" symbols, and only
the function mode of the oven remains.
The oven automatically calculates the start time (end time minus
cooking time).

These two functions can be pre-programmed. To do this, turn the
programme selector knob to "Cooking time" or "End of cooking time".
The cooking time or the end of cooking time will start flashing. Using
the central button, adjust the time as you desire and confirm. When
you have done this, do not forget to turn the programme selector knob
back to STOP in order to confirm the new programme.

At the end of the cycle the oven switches itself off automatically. For
15 seconds, an audible signal lets you know that the cycle has
ended and the "Cooking time" and STOP symbols will flash.
• Turn the function selector knob to STOP. Unless you do this, the
symbols will continue flashing.

For more details about programming, refer to the chapter entitled
PROGRAMMING.

LIVEL 2: Locking function selector knobs
. To activate: turn the function selector knob to child safety and
keep the central button pressed in for 3 seconds.
. Action: the controls are inactive*.
. To deactivate: the same procedure as for activating. Turn the
function selector knob to child safety and keep the central
button pressed in for 3 seconds.
*Nota : in all cases, for reasons of safety, even when the controls
are locked, the oven can be switched off by turning the selector
knob to zero.
