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.
A list detailing cooking modes and suggested cooking
temperatures can be found in the relevant table (see Oven
cooking advice table
).
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.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
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.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob to
any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long as the
oven is operating. By selecting

with the knob, the
light is switched on without any of the heating elements
being activated.
STATIC 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.
OVEN BOTTOM mode
The lower heating element is activated. This position is
recommended for perfecting the cooking of dishes (in
baking trays) which are already cooked on the surface
but require further cooking in the centre, or for desserts
with a covering of fruit or jam, which only require moderate
colouring on the surface. It should be noted that this
function does not allow the maximum temperature to
be reached inside the oven (250°C) and it is therefore
not recommended that foods are cooked using only this
setting, unless you are baking cakes (which should be
baked at a temperature of 180°C or lower).
GRILL mode
The top heating element is activated. 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.

DOUBLE GRILL mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit will be
activated. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes
that require a high surface temperature: beef steaks, veal,
rib steak, fillets, hamburgers etc...
! The GRILL and DOUBLE GRILL cooking modes must
be performed with the oven door shut.
Turnspit
To operate the rotisserie
(see diagram) proceed as
follows:
1. Place the dripping
pan in position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie
support in position 4 and
insert the spit in the hole
provided on the back
panel of the oven.
3. Activate the rotisserie
by selecting with the SELECTOR knob.
Practical advice on using the electric
hotplates
To avoid heat loss and damage to the hotplates use pans
with a flat base, whose diameter is no less than that of
the hotplate itself.
! Before using the hotplates for the first time, you should
heat them at maximum temperature for approximately 4
minutes, without placing any pans on them. During this
initial stage, their protective coating hardens and reaches
its maximum resistance.
WARNING! The glass lid can break in if
it is heated up. Turn off all the burners
and the electric plates before closing
the lid. *Applies to the models with
glass cover only.
