Starting the oven

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).

! Should the appliance be equipped with an electronic 
programmer*, to use the electric oven, just press buttons  

and  

at the same time (the symbol  

 will appear 

on the display) before selecting the desired cooking 
function.

During cooking it is always possible to:
•Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR 
knob.
•Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT 
knob.
•Set the total cooking time and the cooking end time 
(see below).
•Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the 
“0” position.

! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; 
this will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged. 
Only use position 1 in the oven when cooking with the 
rotisserie spit.

! 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.

Cooking modes

! A temperature value between 50°C and MAX can be set 
for all cooking modes except the following:

•  GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)

•  GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will be 
activated. 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 BAKING mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, 
thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and 
uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is 
ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods 
(such as cakes that need to rise) and for the preparation 
of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously.

MULTILEVEL mode

All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular), as 
well as the fan, will be activated. Since the heat remains 
constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns 
food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may 
be used at the same time.

PIZZA OVEN mode

The circular heating elements and the elements at 
the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan is 
activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly by 
producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly 
from the element at the bottom. If you use more than one 
rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway 
through the cooking process.

 / 

GRILL mode

The central part of the top heating element and the 
rotisserie spit (where present) are activated. The high and 
direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food 
that requires a high surface temperature (veal and beef 
steaks, fillet steak and entrecôte). This cooking mode 
uses a limited amount of energy and is ideal for grilling 
small dishes. Place the food in the centre of the rack, as 
it will not be cooked properly if it is placed in the corners.

* Only available in certain models.
