The tables below describe the symbols used. TIMER KNOB This knob enables manual cooking or the timer to be selected; the timer switches off the oven automatically at the end of cooking. If no cooking time is selected, the timer knob must be positioned on . To set the cooking time, turn the knob clockwise until it reaches the "90" position and then set the desired cooking time. The numbers from 5 to 90 correspond to minutes. Adjustment is progressive so that the time can also be set to any intermediate value between these numbers. At the end of the programmed cooking time, a buzzer will sound and switch off automatically after 4-5 seconds. THERMOSTAT KNOB The cooking temperature is selected by turning the knob clockwise to the desired setting, between 50°C and 250°C. This knob also enables the temperature to be selected for Vapor Clean (on some models only). THERMOSTAT INDICATOR LIGHT (RED) When this is flashing, it indicates that the oven is heating up to the temperature set using the thermostat knob. Once the oven has reached the selected temperature, the light stops flashing and remains steady until the oven switches off. In some models, the light switches on when the automatic cleaning cycle (pyrolysis) starts and remains lit until the cycle is complete. 11 Instructions for the user FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB This knob is used to select the desired cooking function.

The insertion heights are numbered from the bottom upwards (see figure). 7. 2. 2 Cooling system The appliance is equipped with a cooling system which comes into operation as soon as a cooking function starts. The fan causes a steady outflow of air from above the door which may continue for a brief period of time even after the oven has been turned off. 7. 2. 3 Oven inside lights The lights inside the oven go on as soon as any function is selected. 13 Instructions for the user 7. 3 Warnings and general advice for usage All cooking operations must be carried out with the door closed. During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven. For the best cooking results, we recommend placing cookware in the centre of the rack. To prevent any steam in the oven from causing problems, open the door in two stages: half open (5 cm approx. ) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open. 8. 1. 2 Advice for cooking meat Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
