Electronic clock Fig. 2 Fig. 3 FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB THERMOSTAT KNOB Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions. This only sets the cooking temperature and does not switch the oven on. Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 to 250°C).
OVEN LIGHT By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on (15 W). It remains on in all the cooking modes. TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat is dispersed by natural convection and the temperature must be set to between 50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob. The oven must be preheated before cooking. Recommended for: Food that requires the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.
HOT AIR COOKING The circular resistance and fan come on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection and the temperature can be regulated to between 50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob. The oven does not require preheating. Recommended for: Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example lasagne, lamb, roast beef, whole fish etc. VENTILATED GRILL COOKING The infrared grill and the fan come on.
CONVECTION COOKING WITH VENTILATION The upper and lower heating elements come on and the fan. The heat coming from above and below is dispersed by convection with ventilation. The temperature can be set to between 50° and 250°C via the thermostat knob. Recommended for: Voluminous dishes and large quantities which require the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example rolled roasts, turkey, roast legs, cakes etc.
ROASTING To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember: – that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180° and 200 °C. – that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods. GRILLING AND COOKING “AU GRATIN” Grilling may be done without the roasting jack on position of the switch, because the hot air completely envelops the food that is to be cooked. Set the thermostat to position 175 °C and after having preheated the oven, simply place the food on the rack.
How to use the electronic clock The electronic programmer is a device with the following functions: – 24 hours clock with illuminated display – Timing of oven cooking with automatic switch-off (max. 99 minutes). Electronic clock Upon immediate connection of the oven or after a mains failure, three zeros will flash on the programmer panel. To set the clock it is necessary to push the button and then, within 7 seconds, the or button until you have set the correct time.

For the installer Building in the oven All our ovens are designed for being easily built in - whether masonry or a cabinet made of wood laminated plastic or metal, provided it is heat resistant. To fit the oven properly, any such enclosure, should be as shown in figures 8 and 9. The oven should then be secured by 4 screws fitted into the holes provided at the sides of the oven.

Fixing the oven Introduce the oven into the furniture opening and fix it with screws as figure 7. It is essential that the oven rests on a surface which will support its weight, as the screw fixing is only complementary. Warning! It is very important that the upper slits of the control panel are not obstructed. These slits are part of the ovens air circulation system and any blockage could result in overheating.
Electrical connection All electrical wiring must be in compliance with the appropriate I.E.E. and local Electricity Board regulations and carried out by a qualified electrician, e.g. your local Electricity Board or a contractor who is on the roll of the National Inspection Council For Electrical Contracting (N.I.C.E.I.C.).
