Electrical Connection  
Electrical connection  
Power cable supply connection to the electrical  
mains:  
GB  
The electrical connection to the mains must be made  
on the appliance. The power voltage and frequency  
are as indicated on the rating plate.  
We recommend you use a power supply cable which  
is long enough to allow you to take the oven out of  
its recess in the event of maintenance operations  
(only use HAR - H 05 - RR< quality cables fitted with  
a plug conforming to the regulations in force.  
The plug must be accessible at all times.  
! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.  
Connecting the power supply cable  
Unplug the appliance before all operations, even  
when replacing the oven lamp.  
To open the terminal board:  
• Using a screwdriver, press on the tabs situated  
on each side of the terminal board cover.  
Using the appliance without correct earthing is  
highly dangerous.  
• Pull open the terminal board cover.  
! After connecting the appliance to the flexible  
cable, tighten all the screws on the terminal  
board.  
To connect the power supply cable, proceed as  
follows:  
Unscrew the cable clamp screw and the contact  
screws L-N-6.

You can connect your oven to the system means of  
a terminal board. Refer to above information for the  
minimal cable sections and the calibration of the  
protective elements according to the connection.  
If the appliance is installed with a junction box, an  
omnipolar circuit breaker - with a minimum contact  
opening of 3mm - should be installed between the  
appliance and the mains.  
This appliance conforms to the  
following European Economic  
Community directives:  
- 2006/95/EEC of 12/12/06 (Low  
Voltage) and subsequent  
amendments;

Start-up and use  
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the  
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum  
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the  
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off  
and opening the oven door. The appliance may  
produce a slightly unpleasant odour caused by the  
burning away of protective substances used during  
the manufacturing process.  
Cooling ventilation  
GB  
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.  
Starting the oven  
Oven light  
1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the  
SELECTOR knob.  
It goes on when selecting  
with the SELECTOR  
knob. It stays on when a cooking mode is selected.  
2. Select the desired temperature with the  
THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table for  
cooking modes and the suggested cooking  
temperatures (see Cooking Modes).  
3. When preheating is finished, the THERMOSTAT  
indicator light will stay on: place the food in the oven.  
4. You may do the following during cooking:  
- change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR  
knob.  
- change the temperature by turning the  
THERMOSTAT knob.  
- stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the  
“0” position.  
! Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to  
avoid damaging the enamel coating.  
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

Cooking modes  
Cooking modes  
GRATIN mode  
GB  
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking  
modes between 60°C and Max, except for  
The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come  
on. 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. Always cook in this mode with the  
oven door closed.  
• 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 come  
on. With 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 unevenly.  
Practical cooking advice  
! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-  
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn  
temperature sensitive foods.  
MULTI-COOKING mode  
! In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, place the  
dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues  
(fat and/or grease).  
All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as  
the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant  
throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food  
uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at  
the same time.  
MULTI-COOKING  
• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires  
more heat on 2.  
TOP OVEN mode  
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack  
on top.  
The top heating element comes on. This mode can be  
used to brown food at the end of cooking.  
GRILL  
GRILL mode  
• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in  
the centre of the rack.  
The top heating element comes on. The extremely  
high and direct temperature of the grill makes it  
possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts  
while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The  
grill is also highly recommended for dishes that  
require a high temperature on the surface: such as  
beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...  
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical  
Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode  
with the oven door closed.  
• We recommend that you set the maximum power  
level. The top heating element is regulated by a  
thermostat and may not always be on.  
PIZZA  
• <or best results when cooking pizza, use the  
MULTI-COOKING mode.  
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the  
rack provided.  
<or a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan  
(prevents crust from forming by extending cooking  
time).  
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend  
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza  
halfway through the cooking process.

Maintenance and care  
Switching the appliance off  
Inspecting the seals  
GB  
Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If  
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest  
After-sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We  
recommend not using the oven until the seals have  
been replaced.  
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity  
supply before carrying out any work on it.  
Cleaning the appliance  
• The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts  
as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a  
sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water  
and neutral soap. If these stains are difficult to  
remove, use only specialised products. After  
cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use  
abrasive powders or corrosive substances.  
• Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned  
after each use, when it is still lukewarm. Use hot  
water and detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.  
Do not use abrasive products.  
Replacing the light bulb  
To replace the oven light bulb:  
1. Remove the glass cover of the lamp-holder.  
2. Remove the light bulb and replace it with a similar  
one: Wattage 25 W, cap E 14.  
3. Replace the glass cover (see diagram).  
• All accessories can be washed like everyday  
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.  
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on  
the appliance.  
Cleaning the oven door  
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge  
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry  
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive  
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could  
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack. To  
clean more thoroughly, you can remove the oven door.  
1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram).  
2. Lift up and turn the small levers located on the  
two hinges (see diagram).  
F
3. Grip the door on the two  
external sides and close it  
approximately half way. Unlock  
the door by pressing on the  
clamps , then pull the door  
F
towards you lifting it out of its  
seat (see diagram).  
To replace the door, reverse  
this sequence.
