How To Use the Cooking Hob
The ceramic surface of the hob allows
a fast transmission of heat in the vertical direction, from the heating elements
underneath the ceramic glass to the
pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in the horizontal direction, so that the glass stays
“cool” at only a few centimeters from the
cooking plate.
The 5 cooking zones are shown by painted disks on the ceramic surface.
Important note:
The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches the element
ON/OFF during all the settings to protect the ceramic glass from overheating.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong
pan positioning will cause the temperature limiter to operate more frequently,
resulting in a reduction of cooking performance.
3 circuit radiant zones
Incorporating 3 heating elements
(fig. 3.4) you can control and light up all
together or separately by a 6 position
switch (fig. 3.3).
Reaches the working temperature in a
very short time.
Fig. 3.3
Fig. 3.4
15
Double and oval radiant
zones
The heating element is formed of a coil
of resistant material which reaches the
working temperature quickly.
Operation of the cooking zone is controlled by a continuous energy regulator
from 1 to 12 (maximum temperature)
(fig. 3.5).
To turn on both zones of the double
element, turn the double element knob
fully clockwise to the position
.
To reduce the heat of the full double
element, turn its knob anticlockwise to
setting 12 or lower. Adjust the heat during
cooking as necessary.
Note: if you leave the knob at the
position, the full double element will
remain at the highest heat setting.
To return to using only the inner zone
of the double element, first turn the knob
to the o (off) position (you should feel a
click) and then clockwise to a setting from
1 to 12.

Residual heat indicator
Cooking hints:
The hob also features 5 warning lights
which are connected to the corresponding plates.
When the temperature of a cooking plate
is above 60 °C, the relevant warning light
will also light up to warn of heat on the
surface of the hob.
This light also stay on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to show that
the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat will lasts for a long
time after the cooking plate has been
switched off.
During this time you should avoid
touching the hob surface over the
cooking area.
Please pay special attention to ensure
that children are not allowed near
the hob.
The light will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.
–To reduce the cooking time, you can
turn the control knob to the max when
you switch the plate on.
After a short time you can set the control knob to the position required for
cooking.
– You should only use pots and pans with
flat bases (pans with the test mark for
glass-ceramic hobs are available from
specialist shops).
The diameter of the pan should match
that of the cooking plate (or be slightly
bigger) to make the most of the energy.
– Since the cooking surface will stays hot
for a certain time after the plate has
been switched off, you can switch it off
5 or 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking.
The residual heat of the hob will complete the cooking.
– To save electricity, use pan lids whenever possible.
– Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic hob, but in special pans
or containers.
– Do not scratch the cooktop with cutting or sharp objects.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface
as a work surface.
Caution!
The cooker becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
Deep fat frying
Fig. 3.9
DO NOT USE GLASSWARE ON CERAMIC HOBS.
DO NOT USE PANS WITH ROUGH CIRCULAR
MACHINED BASE.
18
For safety purposes when deep fat frying, do not fill the pan more than one
third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO
NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave
the pan where it is and turn off the control knobs.
Place a damp cloth or lid over the pan
to smother the flames. Leave the pan to
cool for at least 30minutes before moving the pan.
DO NOT USE WATER ON THE FIRE.
Safety hints:
Cleaning the hob
– Before you switch the hob on, make
sure you know which knob controls the
required cooking plate. We advise you
to set the pan over the cooking plate
before switching it on. Remove the pan
after you have switched the cooking
plate off.
– Do not use pots and pans with rough
bases (pay attention to cookware made
of cast-iron). Rough bases can damage
(scratch) the glass surface of the hob.
Make sure that the pan bottom of the
pan is dry and clean.
– Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave
silver streaks or spots on the hob.
– Do not leave wet or damp lids on the
hob.
– The glass-ceramic surface and pans
must be clean. Carefully remove any
food debris (especially containing
sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleansing agent.
– Pan handles should never stand out
beyond the kitchen worktop, as there
is a great danger of knocking the pan
over.
This will also ensure that children
cannot reach them.
– Do not use the hob if the glass surface is broken or cracked in any way.
Please disconnect the hob from the
mains and contact the after-sales
service.
– Do not lean over the cooking plate when
in use.
– Do not lay cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface when it is
hot.
– Remember that the surface remains hot
for a long time (about 30 min.) after the
cooking plate has been switched off.
–Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
Before you begin cleaning make sure
that the appliance is switched off.
Do not use the glass surface for
storage.
Remove spillages and other types of
incrustations.
Dust or food particles can be removed
with a damp cloth.
If you use a detergent, please make
sure that it is not abrasive or scouring.
Abrasive or scouring powders can damage the glass surface of the hob.
All traces of the cleaner must be removed
with a damp cloth.
Do not put articles on the hob which can
melt: i.e plastic, aluminium foil, sugar,
sugar syrup mixtures etc.
If any of these products items have melted on the ceramic surface, you should
remove it immediately (when the surface
is still hot) by using a scraper to avoid
any permanent damage to the surface
of the hob.
Avoid using a knife or other sharp
utensils since these can damage the
ceramic.
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive
sponge which could scratch the surface
permanently.
ATTENTION: MOST IMPORTANT!
If cleaning the glass ceramic hob
using a special scraper tool take
extra care to avoid damaging to the
seal at the edges of the glass ceramic surface.

General features
As its name indicates, this is an oven
that presents particular features from an
operational point of view.
In fact, it is possible to insert 7 different
programs to satisfy every cooking need.
The 7 positions, thermostatically
controlled, are obtained by 4 heating
elements which are:
– Bottom element – Top element
– Grill element
– Circular element

Note:
Upon first use, it is advisable to operate
the oven for 30 minutes in the position
and for another 30 minutes at the
maximum temperature (thermostat knob
on position 250) in the positions
, to eliminate possible traces of
and
grease on the heating elements.
Clean the oven and accessories with
warm water and washing-up liquid.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the MULTIFUNCTION oven are obtained in the
following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper
and lower heating elements.
b. by forced convection
A fan sucks in the air contained
in the oven muffle, which sends it
through the circular heating element
and then sends it back through the
muffle. Before the hot air is sucked
back again by the fan to repeat the
described cycle, it envelops the food
in the oven, provoking a complete and
rapid cooking.
It is possible to cook several dishes
simultaneously.
c. by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and
lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
d. by radiation
The heat is irradiated by the infra red
grill element.
e. by radiation and ventilation
The irradiated heat from the infra red
grill element is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
f. by ventilation
The food is defrosted by using the
fan only function without heat.
WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.
During use the appliance becomes
hot. Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside the
oven.

Cooking Advice
Sterilization
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in
the following way:
a. Set the switch to position
.
b. Set the thermostat knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.
c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the
door and set the thermostat knob to position 135 °C.
When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn
off the oven and let cool.
Regeneration
Set the switch to position
and the thermostat knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven
for about 10 minutes at the highest temperature.
Roasting
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
– that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 and 200 °C.
– that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
Grilling and “au gratin”
Set the switch to position
.
Set the thermostat to position 175 °C and after having preheated the oven, simply place
the food on the shelf.
Close the door and let the oven operate with the thermostat on, until grilling is complete.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin”
effect.
Note: It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one
time.
ATTENTION: the oven door becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
27
Simultaneous cooking of different foods
The MULTI-FUNCTION oven set on position
and
gives simultaneous heterogeneous
cooking of different foods.
Different foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked together without mixing the
smells and flavours.
This is possible since the fats and vapors are oxidized while passing through the electrical
element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.
The only precautions to follow are:
– The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with a
maximum difference of 20° - 25 °C.
– The introduction of the different dishes in the oven must be done at different times in
relation to the cooking times of each one.
The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.
Use of the grill
Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.
Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.
The drip pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Caution: the oven door becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
Oven cooking
Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and
introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to
recuperate the stored heat.
