[. . . ] All parts which ensure the safe operation of the appliance must not be removable without the aid of a tool. 13 GB Electrical connections !Ovens equipped with a three-pole power supply cable are designed to operate with alternating current at the voltage and frequency indicated on the data plate located on the appliance (see below). Open the terminal board by inserting a screwdriver into the side tabs of the cover. Use the screwdriver as a lever by pushing it down to open the cover (see diagram). The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate (see below). [. . . ] Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time: align the minutes shown on the TIMER knob with the indicator on the control panel. The timer operates in minutes: when the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer will sound. See the Cooking advice table for cooking modes and the suggested cooking temperatures (see Cooking Modes). When lit, the THERMOSTAT indicator light indicates that the oven is heating up to the temperature set. You may do the following during cooking: - change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob. Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to avoid damaging the enamel coating. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that blows out air between the control panel and the oven door. Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently. Using the cooking timer* 1. To set the buzzer, turn the COOKING TIMER knob clockwise almost one complete revolution. Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time: align the minutes shown on the COOKING TIMER knob with the indicator on the control panel. When the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer sounds and the oven turns off. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. PIZZA mode The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly from the bottom element. If you use more than one rack simultaneously, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process. BAKING mode The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing the distribution of heat delicately and uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods such as cakes that need to rise and to prepare certain tartlets on 3 shelves simultaneously. Practical cooking advice !In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTI-COOKING Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more heat on 2. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on. For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time). [. . . ] If these stains are difficult to remove, use only specialised products. Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned after each use, when it is still lukewarm. The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery (even in your dishwasher). Sliding Rack Kit assembly To assemble the sliding racks: 1. If the oven is fitted with self-cleaning panels, these will have to be temporarily disassembled. Cleaning the oven door Clean the glass door using non-abrasive products and sponges and dry it with a soft cloth. [. . . ]
