SAfETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Always keep children away from the cooker.

While in operation direct contact with the cooker may cause burns!

 Ensure that small items of household equipment, including connection leads, do not touch the hot oven or the hob as the insulation material of this equipment is usually not resistant to high temperatures.

 Do not leave the cooker unattended when frying. Oils and fats may catch fire due to overheating or boiling over.

 Do not allow the hob to get soiled and prevent liquids from boiling over onto the surface of the hob. This refers in particular to sugar which can react with the ceramic hob and cause irreversible damage. Any spillages should be cleaned up as they happen.

 Do not place pans with a wet bottom on the warmed up heating zones as this can cause irreversible changes to the hob (irremovable stains).

 Use pans that are specified by the manufacturer as designed for use with a ceramic hob.

 If any defects, deep scratches, cracks or chips appear on the ceramic hob, stop using the cooker immediately and contact the service centre.

 Do not switch on the hob until a pan has been placed on it.

 Do not use pans with sharp edges that may cause damage to the ceramic hob.

 Do not look directly at the halogen heating zones (not covered by a pan) when they are warming up.

 Do not put pans weighing over 15 kg on the opened door of the oven and pans over 25 kg on the hob.

 Do not use harsh cleaning agents or sharp metal objects to clean the door as they can scratch the surface, which could then result in the glass cracking.

 Do not use the cooker in the event of a technical fault. Any faults must be fixed by an appropriately qualified and authorised person.

 In the event of any incident caused by a technical fault, disconnect the power and report the fault to the service centre to be repaired.

 The rules and provisions contained in this instruction manual should be strictly observed.

Do not allow anybody who is not familiar with the contents of this instruction manual to operate the cooker.

 The appliance has been designed only for cooking. Any other use (for example for heating) does not comply with its operating profile and may cause danger.

HOW TO SAVE ENERGY

Using energy in a responsible way not only saves money but also helps the environment. So let’s save energy! And this is how you can do it:

 Use proper pans for cooking.

Pans with thick, flat bases can save up to 1/3 on electric energy. Remember to cover pans if possible otherwise you will use four times as much energy!

 Match the size of the saucepan to the surface of the heating zone.

A saucepan should never be smaller than a heating zone.

 Ensure heating zones and pan bases are clean.

Soils can prevent heat transfer – and repeatedly burnt–on spillages can often only be removed by products which cause damage to the environment.

 Do not uncover the pan too often

(a watched pot never boils!).

Do not open the oven door unnecessarily often.

Switch off the oven in good time and make use of residual heat.

For long cooking times, switch off heating zones 5 to 10 minutes before finishing cooking. This saves up to 20% on energy.

Only use the oven when cooking larger dishes.

Meat of up to 1 kg can be prepared more economically in a pan on the cooker hob.

 Make use of residual heat from the oven.

If the cooking time is greater than 40 minutes switch off the oven 10 minutes before the end time.

Important! When using the timer, set appropriately shorter cooking times according to the dish being prepared.

 Only grill with the ultrafan after closing the oven door.

 Make sure the oven door is properly closed.

Heat can leak through spillages on the door seals. Clean up any spillages immediately.

 Do not install the cooker in the direct vicinity of refrigerators/freezers.

Otherwise energy consumption increases unnecessarily.

INSTALLATION

Installing the cooker

 The kitchen should be dry and airy and have effective ventilation according to the existing technical provisions.

 The room should be equipped with a ventilation system that pipes away exhaust fumes created during combustion. This system should consist of a ventilation grid or hood. Hoods should be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The cooker should be placed so as to ensure free access to all control elements.

 Coating or veneer used on fitted furniture must be applied with a heat resistant adhesive (100°C). This prevents surface deformation or detachment of the coating. If you are unsure of your furniture’s heat resistance, you should leave approximately 2 cm of free space around the cooker. The wall behind the cooker should be resistant to high temperatures.

During operation, its back side can warm up to around 50°C above the ambient temperature.

 The cooker should stand on a hard, even floor (do not put it on a base).

 Before you start using the cooker it should be leveled, which is particularly important for fat distribution in a frying pan. To this purpose, adjustable feet are accessible after removal of the drawer. The adjustment range is +/- 5 mm.

Mounting the overturning prevention bracket.

The bracket is mounted to prevent overturning of the cooker. When the overturning prevention bracket is installed, a child who climbs on the oven door will not overturn the appliance.

OPERATION

Zone heating indicator

If the temperature of a heating zone exceeds

50°C this is signalled by an indicator which lights up for that zone.

When the heating indicator lights up it warns the person using the cooker against touching a hot heating zone.

For about 5 to 10 minutes after a heating zone is switched off it will still have residual heat that can be used, for example to warm up or keep dishes warm without switching on another heating zone.

250 fan and combined grill on

When the knob is turned to this position, the oven activates the combined grill and fan function. In practice, this function allows the grilling process to be speeded up and an improvement in the taste of the dish. You should only use the grill with the oven door shut.

Enhanced roaster (super roaster)

In this setting both roaster and top heater are on. This increases temperature in the top part of the oven’s interior, which makes it suitable for browning and roasting of larger portions of food.

The oven can be switched off by setting both of these knobs to the position “”/“ 0”.

Caution!

When selecting any heating function (switching a heater on etc.) the oven will only be switched on after the temperature has ben set by the temperature regulator knob.

Roaster on.

Roasting is used for cooking of small portions of meat: steaks, schnitzel, fish, toasts, Frankfurter sausages,

(thickness of roasted dish should not exceed 2-3 cm and should be turned over during roasting).

16

OPERATION bottom heater on

When the knob is set to this position the oven is heated using only the bottom heater. Baking of cakes from the bottom until done (moist cakes with fruit stuffing).

Top and bottom heaters on

Set the knob in this position for conventional baking. This setting is ideal for baking cakes, meat, fish, bread and pizza (it is necessary to preheat the oven and use a baking tray) on one oven level.

L R

Switching on the oven is indicated by two signal lights, R, L, turning on. The R light turned on means the oven is working. If the L light goes out, it means the oven has reached the set temperature. If a recipe recommends placing dishes in a warmed-up oven, this should be not done before the L light goes out for the first time. When baking, the Llight will temporarily come on and go out (to maintain the temperature inside the oven). The R signal light may also turn on at the knob position of “oven chamber lighting”.

Top heater, bottom heater and fan are on.

This knob setting is most suitable for baking cakes. Convection baking

(recommended for baking).

When the functions have been selected but the temperature knob is set to zero only the fan will be on. With this function you can cool the dish or the oven chamber.

17

OPERATION

Use of the grill

The grilling process operates through infrared rays emitted onto the dish by the incandescent grill heater.

In order to switch on the grill you need to:

 Set the oven knob to the position marked grill.

 Heat the oven for approx. 5 minutes (with the oven door shut).

 Insert a tray with a dish onto the appropriate cooking level; and if you are grilling on the grate insert a tray for dripping on the level immediately below (under the grate).

 Close the oven door.

Warning!

When using function grill it is recommended that the oven door is closed.

When the grill is in use accessible parts can become hot.

It is best to keep children away from the oven.

bAKING IN THE OVEN – PRACTICAL HINTS

baking

 we recommend using the baking trays which were provided with your cooker;

 it is also possible to bake in cake tins and trays bought elsewhere which should be put on the drying rack; for baking it is better to use black trays which conduct heat better and shorten the baking time;

 shapes and trays with bright or shiny surfaces are not recommended when using the conventional heating method (top and bottom heaters), use of such tins can result in undercooking the base of cakes;

 when using the ultra-fan function it is not necessary to initially heat up the oven chamber, for other types of heating you should warm up the oven chamber before the cake is inserted;

 before the cake is taken out of the oven, check if it is ready using a wooden stick (if the cake is ready the stick should come out dry and clean after being inserted into the cake);

 after switching off the oven it is advisable to leave the cake inside for about 5 min.;

 temperatures for baking with the ultra-fan function are usually around 20 – 30 degrees lower than in normal baking (using top and bottom heaters);

 the baking parameters given in Table are approximate and can be corrected based on your own experience and cooking preferences;

 if information given in recipe books is significantly different from the values included in this instruction manual, please apply the instructions from the manual.

Roasting meat

 cook meat weighing over 1 kg in the oven, but smaller pieces should be cooked on the gas burners.

 use heatproof ovenware for roasting, with handles that are also resistant to high temperatures;

 when roasting on the drying rack or the grate we recommend that you place a baking tray with a small amount of water on the lowest level of the oven;

 it is advisable to turn the meat over at least once during the roasting time and during roasting you should also baste the meat with its juices or with hot salty water – do not pour cold water over the meat.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

By ensuring proper cleaning and maintenance of your cooker you can have a significant influence on the continuing fault-free operation of your appliance.

before you start cleaning, the cooker must be switched off and you should ensure

that all knobs are set to the “”/“0” posi- tion. Do not start cleaning until the cooker has completely cooled.

Ceramic hob

 The hob should be cleaned regularly after each use. If possible, it is recommended that the hob is washed while still warm

(after the heating zone indicator goes off). Do not allow the hob to get heavily stained; particualrly from burnt–on spillages from boiled over liquids.

 When cleaning do not use cleaning agents with a strong abbrasive effect, such as e.g. scouring powders containing an abrasive, abrasive compounds, abrasive stones, pumice stones, wire brushes and so on. They may scratch the hob surface, causing irreversible damage.

Do not use the cleaning fluid “Cillit” for cleaning the oven.

 Large spillages that are firmly stuck to the hob can be removed by a special scraper; but be careful not to damage the ceramic hob frame when doing this.

Caution! The sharp blade should always be protected by adjusting the cover (just push it with your thumb). Injuries are possible so be careful when using this instrument – keep out of reach of children.

 Appropriate light cleaning or washing products are recommended, such as e.g. any kind of liquids or emulsions for fat removal. In particular, special cleaning products such as COLLO Luneta, Sidol

Stahlglanz, Stahl–Fix for washing and cleaning and Cera–Fix for maintenance are recommended. If the recommended products are not available, it is advisable to use a solution of warm water with a little washing–up liquid or cleaning products for stainless steel sinks.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Oven

 The oven should be cleaned after every use. When cleaning the oven the lighting should be switched on to enable you to see the surfaces better.

 The oven chamber should only be washed with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid.

 Steam cleaning:

- pour 250ml of water (1 glass) into a bowl placed in the oven on the first level from the bottom,

- close the oven door,

- set the temperature knob to 50°C, and the function knob to the top and bottom heater position ,

- heat the oven chamber for approximately

30 minutes,

- open the oven door, wipe the chamber inside with a cloth or sponge and wash using warm water with washing-up liquid.

Caution! Possible moisture or water residues under the cooker can result from steam cleaning.

 After cleaning the oven chamber wipe it dry.

Replacement of the oven light bulb

In order to avoid the possibility of an electric shock ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the bulb.

 Set all control knobs to the position ”/“0” and disconnect the mains plug,

 unscrew and wash the lamp cover and then wipe it dry.

 unscrew the light bulb from the socket, replace the bulb with a new one – a high temperature bulb (300°C) with the following parameters:

- voltage 230 V

- power 25 W

- thread E14.

Caution!

Do not use cleaning products containing abrasive materials for the cleaning and maintenance of the glass front panel.

Oven light bulb

 Screw the bulb in, making sure it is properly inserted into the ceramic socket.

 Screw in the lamp cover.
