The various functions included in the cooker are selected
by operating the control devices located on the cooker
control panel.
Attention: The first time you use the oven we recommend
that you set the thermostat on the highest setting and leave
the oven on for about a half of an hour with nothing in it.
Then, open the oven door and let the room air. The odour
that is often detected during this initial use is due to the
evaporation of substances used to protect the oven dur-
ing storage and until it is installed.
Attention: Only use the bottom shelf of the oven when
using the rotisserie to cook (where present). For all other
types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never
place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in
operation because this could damage the enamel. Always
place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on
the grate provided with the appliance inserted especially
along the oven guides.
The oven and grill knob (G)
This knob is used to selct the different functions of the
oven and choose the right cooking temperature for the
food to be prepared in the oven from among the
temperatures shown on the knob (from Min to Max).
By turning the knob clockwise to the position indicated by
the symbol , the oven lamp lights up without turning on
the heating elements.
By continuing to turn the knob clockwise both the upper
and the lower heating element (electric resistances) begin
working. It is possible to choose, from among the comple-
te range of temperatures here below, the right cooking
temperature for the food to be prepared.
To do so, match the desired temperature value shown with
the permanent reference on the panel.
60 • 100 • 140
80 120
This temperature is reached automatically and kept
constant by the knob-controlled thermostat.
The oven lamp indicates that the oven is in use and stays
on during cooking.
Position bottom heating element
It is possible to use only the lower heating element by
turning the knob past the MAX. Setting and onto the setting
marked .
On this setting the oven will heat up slowly until it reaches
maximum (240°C) at which temperature it will be
maintained. It is not possible to use this function on lower
setting. This setting is recommended for finishing the
cooking of foods in containers that are well done on the
outside but still not done inside, or for desserts covered
with fruit or jam which requires a light browning on top.

Grill position
Turning the oven knob till to this position, the oven light
turns on, so does the infra-red ray grill, and the motor
starts turning the spit. The rather high and direct tempe-
rature of the grill permits browning the outside of meats
immediately thus keeping in the juices and assuring
tenderness.
Important: when using the grill, keep the oven door
closed, to obtain the best result and save energy
(about 10%). The table show the temperatures, cooking
times and positions recommended for obtaining the best
cooking results.
When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the lower levels
(see cooking table). To catch grease or fat and prevent
smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom rack level.
Thermostat Light (E)
This light indicates that the oven is heating. When it turns
off, the temperature inside the oven has reached the set-
ting made with the thermostat knob. At this point, the light
will turn on and off as the oven maintains the temperature
at a constant level.
Green Light (L)
This turns on whenever any electric heating element in
the cook-top.
Rotisserie
To activate the rotisserie, proceed as follows:
a) Distribute the food evenly along the spit;
b) Place the spit on the rotisserie support, making sure
that the front ring is positioned correctly on the support
guide (Fig. A);
c) Insert the sliding support piece at the 3rd rack setting
from the bottom, pushing it backwards until end of the
spit is inserted properly into the hole on the back of
the oven (Fig. A);
Some models are equipped with a different type of rotis-
serie support. If this is the case, points b) and c) must be
modified as follows (Fig. B):
b1)Insert the support hook into the two holes located on
the top part of the oven opening (position 1);
c1)Insert the skewer into the hole located at the centre of
the back part of the oven, making sure that the front
support ring on the skewer is positioned correctly on
the hook support (position 2);
d)
Activate the rotisserie by turning the oven knob to the
setting.
N.B.: Use the plastic handle to insert or remove the sliding
support piece from the oven (Fig. A).
