When cooking with fat or oil, stay close by, as these materials can catch fire if they overheat. Do not store inflammable objects in the oven or on the heating zones. When plugging domestic electrical appliances into a socket nearby, make sure that the power cable is not touching the heating zones or caught in the oven door. Do not use the oven door handle to dry linen as this will prevent the oven's front ventilation from working. In the event of a malfunction, remove the mains fuses. To prevent a build-up of heat, which will affect cooking results and damage the enamel and the housing unit: - Do not place any utensils on the floor of the oven. - Do not line the interior of the oven with aluminium foil! Use the temperatures suggested in the cooking guide, to prevent excessive fat splashes in your oven. To protect the enamel on your oven: - Do not fill the baking tin up to the top when cooking a fruit tart. The fruit juice which runs off may cause permanent staining. - Do not pour water directly into the hot oven. To protect the door on your oven and ensure its air- tightness: - Do not lean on the open door. - Keep the door seals clean. For all cooking on the grill: - Place the items to be cooked onto the shelf. - Slide the dripping pan under the shelf or place directly on the floor of the oven to collect the cooking juices and prevent splashing.

Turn the timer knob to the right to the setting which corresponds to the time required (see cooking guide enclosed with the instruction book). FOR THE USER ADVICE ON USING THE OVEN Conventional + fan: vegetables, meat, fish. * This mode of cooking is similar to “fan-assisted heat”. Cooking is done by the upper and lower elements with the addition of the fan, which ensures uniform cooking results. * As the temperature rises rapidly, dishes can be placed directly into the cold oven. * The recommended temperatures are lower than for modes of cooking which do not use the fan. * Finally, this mode of cooking reduces shrinkage. Delicate vegetables (stuffed tomatoes) will not burst, and potato bakes will be smoother and browner. Fan-assisted grill: roasting Cooking is done by the upper element with the addition of the fan, to ensure uniform heat distribution. « All poultry can be cooked by this method. * Place the dripping pan at the 1st shelf position or on the floor of the oven if you are roasting a large joint. Bottom element + fan: baking Cooking is done from below. Cook setting recommended for pizzas, quiches, soft fruit tarts, brioche, fruit cake. Bread will be perfectly cooked underneath. Yeast dough (brioche), cake mixture (fruit cake) and soufflés will not be prevented from rising by the formation of a crust. | HH Defrost: vegetables, meat, fish. * You can defrost food in your oven with limited use of heat. The fan agitates the air to increase the temperature exchanges. - This mode is particularly suitable for fragile food ish is to be consumed raw (strawberries, raspberries, etc.). * You can increase the temperature to defrost food which is to be cooked immediately after defrosting (meat, etc.). Proceed with caution to prevent the surface from starting to cook. Meat should be placed on a shelf at the 2" shelf position, so as not to come into contact with the liquid produced during defrosting, which will be collected in the dripping pan placed on the 1st shelf position. = Conventional: custards Cooking is done from below and above, without the an. * Use this for perfect results when cooking egg custard, flan, creme caramel or créme brulée, using the dripping pan as a bain marie and finishing off under the grill after sprinkling with brown sugar. Е Grill: grilling, browning. « Setting designed for grilling. - Pre-heat with the shelf in the oven, then place the items to be grilled on the shelf at the appropriate shelf position (depending on thickness). - Position the dripping pan on the 1st shelf position. You can pour a glass of water into it to reduce smoke and odours, especially when grilling meat or sausages. Ideal for toast. USING THE TIMER - Turn the “timer” knob to the M position (manual). - Select the mode of cooking required by turning the “cook function selector” to the position you require. - Set the cooking temperature in accordance with your recipe by turning the “thermostat” knob. Following these actions, the oven heats up. - Select the cook time by turning the “timer” knob to the appropriate setting. - Set the cooking temperature in accordance with your recipe by turning the “thermostat” knob. - Select the mode of cooking by turning the “cook function selector” to the position you require. Following these actions, the oven heats up. When cooking is completed, the “timer” knob will be at the O min. setting. NB: No beep sounds at the end of cooking. FOR THE USER USING YOUR [FOB The energy control units can be set from 0 to 9 by simply turning the knob. Turn the control knob for the hotplate or cooking zone to the setting required. The indicator light above the knob lights and remains lit until the knob is turned back to "off". Details of the cook settings Settings 1, 2, 3: for continuing cooking, reheating or keeping some dishes warm. Settings 4, 5, 6: for simmering and for cooking large quantities. Settings 7, 8, 9: for pan grilling, frying or bringing to the boil. Turn control knob 2 or 4 as far as possible clockwise to turn on the additional heating zone, then turn back to the setting required. At the "off" position, the main cooking zone and the additional cooking zone are switched off simultaneously. To turn off the additional cooking zone and continue cooking on the main cooking zone only, turn the knob to "off" and then turn it back to the setting required. The additional cooking zone cannot be turned on without the main cooking zone. FOR THE USER ACCESSORIES CARE AND MAINTENANCE ALL COOKING IS DONE WITH THE OVEN DOOR CLOSED, INCLUDING GRILLING. Your oven has runners which enable the following accessories to be positioned on 4 evels. Shelf This is used for holding all dishes and tins which contain food for cooking or browning. Multi-purpose dripping pan = This can be used as a baking tray and has a sloping edge for this reason. It can be used for baking items such as choux buns, meringues, small cakes and flaky pastry, etc. When slid into the runners under the grill or in the first shelf position, it collects the juice and fat produced during grilling. It can also be used half-filled with water, for cooking requiring a bain-marie. Do not place meat for roasting directly onto the multi- purpose dripping pan as this will certainly lead to serious splashing of fat on the oven walls and to the production of excessive smoke. Rotisserie (for BCE 120 model ) Г Cooking on a rotisserie is very practical and enables the achievement, in particular, of flavourful roasts and even browning. » Polished, painted or enamelled metal surfaces. Use commercial cleaning products designed for cleaning polished metal. Oven door glass. When cooking has caused staining, you are strongly advised to clean the inner glass with a non-abrasive commercial cleaner. The metal cross-pieces on the oven door must not be cleaned with a scouring sponge or a harsh cleaning product. A gentle cream cleaner can be used. e Control knobs Clean the control knobs with soapy water. They can be removed if necessary, by pulling them towards you. » Shelf and dripping pan Use a sponge with a non-abrasive cleaner and never use sharp objects. Warning! Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before replacing the bulb (EN 60335-2-6/1990). - Turn the cover B one quarter turn to the left. - Unscrew the bulb and replace it with a heat-resistant (300 °C) bulb of the same size with an E14 base - 15 or 25 W. FOR THE USER This self-cleaning oven is made of a compartment equipped with removable inner walls, coated with a special micro-porous enamel (catalytic enamel) which gives it auto-grease removing qualities. As soon as grease marks appear, they spread out and penetrate largely in the micro-pores. They are oxidised on both sides and progressively disappear. The self-cleaning enamel is especially suitable for fatty substances, but not for sugar. This is why the floor, more liable to have spillage from sweets, is not coated with this enamel. We strongly recommend: - Not using a metal brush or pointed or sharp instruments. - Not using retail scouring products. - When grilling food, the temperature of the inner walls is not always enough to completely eliminate the spattering of fat while cooking. In this case prolong the heating of the oven at maximum of the chosen mode for 20 to 30 minutes after the cooking. If the stains persist, they will progressively disappear with further cooking. Before disassembling, let the appliance cool and check the cooking selector A is on the position "0" (OFF) Lateral walls Fully unscrew the toothed wheel 1. Slightly lift the runner line 2. Pull it from the 2 holes 3 of the catalytic wall and the block of the oven. Remove it from the catalytic wall 4. Place the new elements (walls and/or runners) by proceeding in the opposite order. Rear Walls After disassembling the lateral walls. Completely unscrew the 3 screws 5 of the rear wall.

This means that cooking time is reduced and less energy is required. Baking utensils made of tin reflect the heat, which means they reject it. Cakes and pies baked in these tins will not brown properly and take longer to cook. This type of utensil is not recommended for baking in a convection oven. Hints on successful cooking 1- If the top of the cake is a dark colour and the bottom is a very light colour, you have not cooked with enough heat from below: » Put the cake into a cold oven, * Move the cake lower down the oven, * Use a dark-coloured tin, * Lower the temperature. 2 - If the top of the cake is a light colour and the bottom is dark, you have cooked with too much heat from below: * Place the cake higher up the oven, * Lower the temperature. 3 - If the outside of the cake (e.g. fruit cake) is overdone, while the inside is undercooked and your pastry is unevenly browned, you are cooking at too a high a temperature: * Lower the temperature, * Increase the cooking time. 4 - If the outside of the cake is too dry but is a good colour, you have cooked it for too long and at too low a temperature: * Increase the thermostat setting, * Reduce the cooking time. The effect of dishes and tins on cooking results: - Materials which reduce cooking from below: Aluminium, tin, earthenware.... these prevent splashing. - Materials which increase cooking from below: Cast iron, black metal ... these are suitable for all types of baking. Meat Select a dish of similar size to the joint being cooked: too large and the cooking juices will burn and making gravy will be impossible. Earthenware dishes are best as glass dishes cause more fat splashing. Before being put into the oven, all types of meat should be left for at least one hour at room temperature. Wipe the joint and roll it in a little oil (1 teaspoonful) to which salt and pepper have been added (with the exception of beef, which should be seasoned after cooking, as salt causes the juices to run and the meat to dry out). Joints are often barded with fat which prevents a brown crust from forming on the outside. This should generally be removed from red meat as it causes smoke and odours. Barding is useful however, for some joints which can dry out during cooking, such as veal silverside and pork fillet. During cooking, beef and lamb do not need basting, however, poultry, pork and veal can only be improved by frequent basting with the cooking juices. Add a few spoonfuls of hot water to the dish to prevent the juices from burning. When cooking is completed, it is essential that meat be allowed to rest out of the oven, wrapped in aluminium foil (shiny side next to the meat). This pause enables the fibres to relax and the colour to become even, and white meat and poultry will remain tender. If the joint is long and narrow, the cooking time advised for 500 g should be reduced. Beef joint from 10 to 15 min. for 500 g * Pork joint from 35 to 40 min. for 500 g * Veal joint from 30 to 40 min. for 500 g When grilling, coat the items to be grilled with a thin layer of oil; this coating of fat, applied with a brush, ensures even distribution of heat and prevents sticking. Red meat should not be pierced before grilling. As use of a fork is not recommended, turn it with a spatula. 14 COOKING GUIDE BGE 120 Settings and advice 5 _ Se É © Recom- й Recommended E 252 ® Z | mended = My settings Dishes setting © 955 E | cooktimes| 2 — © hit t - a ite mea Roast pork (1 kg) Conventional G 180/210 | 2 1 hr 30 CE Roast veal (1 kg) Conventional 180/210 1 2 1 hr 40 A-G | RER Poultry (1 kg) Grill or 180/210 | 2 50/70 min | AG Jeera Large poultry joints (3 kg) Conventional 180/210 | 1 1 hr 40 A-G | Pork or veal chops Grill 265 4 5 15/20 min |[A-G-H|...................... ener = Red meat Beef steak (1 kg) Grill 265 3 5 25/30 min [A-G-H[......…......….….......rcccccsrarreessrerees Lamb chops (1 kg) Grill 265 4 5 10/20 min |[A-G-H[....................... nee care carre Roast beef (1 kg) Conventional — 240 2 30/40 min | A-F Joe nern Lamb (leg, shoulder) ( 2.5 kg) |Conventional 210/240 | 1/2 50 min A rene Fish and misc. meats Kebabs Grill 265 3/4 5 A eee Grilled fish Grill =| 265 4 A Baked fish Conventional DZ 180 2 45 min CT egetables Bakes Conventional 210/240 1 30 min E RER Potato bake Conventional 210 1 Thr | |, Roast potatoes Conventional 210 1 Thr10 | |, Baking Sponge cake Conventional 180 2 35/40 min В oo e ecc.
