how to use the self cleaning oven
GENERAL FEATURES
This oven has special operating features.
5 different functions can be used to satisfy all cooking needs; it also has a self cleaning
function which can clean the oven cavity at high temperature, a defrost function and an
oven light function.
These functions are managed by an electronic programmer which keeps the tempera-
ture set constant by means of a probe inside the oven cavity.
The oven has the following heating elements:
- Lower heating element (double) 500 + 1300 W
- Upper heating element
- Grill heating element
USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
- Put in the shelf and the tray.
- Switch the oven on empty (on a cooking function – NOT SELF CLEANING) at maximum
power for about 2 hours to remove traces of grease and smells from the components.
- When the oven has cooled down and unplugging the range, clean the inside of the oven
with a cloth soaked in water and neutral detergent and dry it perfectly.
WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the multifunction self cleaning oven takes place as follows:
• by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
• by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
• by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element.
• by radiation and fan
The radiated heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan.
• by double radiation and fan
The fan distributes the heat radiated by the grill heating element and the upper heat-
ing element in the oven.
• by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.
• by self cleaning
The heat produced by the heating elements cleans the internal oven cavity removing
all residue of grease.
THIS IS NOT A COOKING FUNCTION
NOTES ON OVEN WORKING
A cooling fan starts automatically when selecting a cooking or self cleaning mode.
It stops when turning the selector knob to OFF or light or defrosting position and
th inside oven cavity temperature drops below 100 °C (212 °F).
The purpose of this fan is to reduce the temperature inside/outside the appliance.
Note: The first time the oven is used or after a black-out the programmer must be start-
ed by pressing keys 2 and 3 simultaneously. See the chapter on the use of the electronic
programmer.
