[. . . ] To delete the entire set program, hold down the central key for 2 seconds; if cooking has already started, the oven will have to be switched off manually. Here we can see a programming example: the current time is 7:06 and cooking is programmed to start at 8. 00 and end at 9. 00. At 8 o'clock the inside segments between 8 and 9 will start to flash, while the hours hand will remain still. · · · · Warning: for the oven to start cooking operations after the programming procedures just described, the thermostat and functions switch knob must be correctly set on the required temperature and function. 7. 8. 4 Display brightness reduction To reduce energy consumption in stand-by, briefly press key display brightness. To restore the normal brightness, press to reduce the again. 73 Instructions for the user 8. OVEN FUNCTIONS STATIC: As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static or thermal radiation cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck. FAN-ASSISTED STATIC: The operation of the fan, combined with traditional cooking, ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits and cakes, even when simultaneously cooked on several levels. GRILL: Using only the heat released from the central element, this function allows to grill small portions of meat and fish for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and any types of grilled vegetable side dishes. FAN-ASSISTED GRILL: The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, giving perfect grilling results even with very thick foods. FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM: The combination of the fan with just the lower heating element allows cooking to be completed more rapidly. This system is recommended for finishing off the cooking of foods which are already well-cooked on the surface, but not inside, which therefore need a little more heat. BOTTOM + FAN-ASSISTED CIRCULAR: Fan-assisted cooking is combined with the heat coming from the bottom, at the same giving time slight browning. CIRCULAR: The combination of the fan and the circular element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) enables different foods to be cooked on several levels, as long as they need the same temperature and same type of cooking operation. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously (on different levels) without mixing odours and flavours. 74 Instructions for the user DEFROSTING: Rapid defrosting is helped by switching on the fan to ensure uniform distribution of room temperature air inside the oven. ECO: indicates which function gives the least energy consumption. Using the grill and the bottom heating element plus the fan is particularly suitable for heating up food, as it provides low energy consumption. WIDE GRILL: The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results, especially for thin and medium thickness meat and, in combination with the rotisserie (when present), it allows the food to be browned evenly at the end of cooking. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. [. . . ] Where the appliance is connected to the power grid via plug and socket, both of these must be of the same type and connected to the power cable in accordance with current standards. The socket must be accessible after the appliance has been built in. Should the earthing wire need replacing it must be longer than the conducting wires so that, if the plug is torn off the power cable, it is the last to be detached. Avoid use of adapters and shunts as these could cause overheating and a risk of burns. [. . . ]
