SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance becomes hot during operation. Take care not to touch the hot parts inside
the oven.
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 cooker should not be cleaned using steam cleaning equipment.

Using energy in a respon-
sible 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 repeat-
edly 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 cook-
ing. 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.
HOW TO SAVE ENERGY
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.

During transportation, protec-
tive packaging was used to
protect the appliance against
any damage. After unpack-
ing, please dispose of all
elements of packaging in a
way that will not cause dam-
age to the environment.
All materials used for packaging the appli-
ance are environmentally friendly; they are
100% recyclable and are marked with the
appropriate symbol.
Caution! During unpacking, the packag-
ing materials (polythene bags, polystyrene
pieces, etc.) should be kept out of reach of
children.
UNPACKING DISPOSAL OF THE APPLIANCE
Old appliances should not sim-
ply be disposed of with normal
household waste, but should
be delivered to a collection and
recycling centre for electric and
electronic equipment. A symbol
shown on the product, the
instruction manual or the packaging shows
that it is suitable for recycling.
Materials used inside the appliance are
recyclable and are labelled with information
concerning this. By recycling materials or
other parts from used devices you are making
a significant contribution to the protection of
our environment.
Information on appropriate disposal centres
for used devices can be provided by your
local authority.

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 ven-
tilation 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 instruc-
tions. 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 coat-
ing. If you are unsure of your furniture’s
heat resistance, you should leave ap-
proximately 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 adjust-
ment range is +/- 5 mm.

wire must be connected to the PE terminal

INSTALLATION
Electrical connection
Warning!
All electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and authorised electrician. No
alterations or wilful changes in the electricity supply should be carried out.
Fitting guidelines
The cooker is manufactured to work with three–phase alternating current (400V 3N~50Hz).
The voltage rating of the cooker heating elements is 230V. Adapting the cooker to operate
with one-phase current is possible by apropriate bridging in the connection box according
to the connection diagram below. The connection diagram is also found on the cover of the
connection box. Remember that the connection wire should match the connection type and
the power rating of the cooker.
The connection cable must be secured in a strain–relief clamp.
Warning!
Remember to connect the safety circuit to the connection box terminal marked with . The
electricity supply for the cooker must have a safety switch which enables the power to be cut
off in case of emergency. The distance between the working contacts of the safety switch
must be at least 3 mm.
Before connecting the cooker to the power supply it is important to read the information on
the data plate and the connection diagram.

Remove packaging, empty the drawer,
clean the interior of the oven and the hob.
Take out and wash the oven fittings with
warm water and a little washing–up liquid.
Switch on the ventillation in the room or
open a window.
Heat the oven (to a temperature of 250°C,
for approx. 30 min.), remove any stains and
wash carefully; the heating zones of the hob
should be heated for around 4 min. without
a pan.
Before first use Important!
In ovens equipped with the electronic pro-
grammer, the time “12.00” will start flashing
in the display field upon connection to the
power supply.
The programmer should be set with the cur-
rent time. (See Electronic programmer ). If the
current time is not set operation of the oven
is impossible.
The knobs are “concealed” in the control
panel, to select it you should:
– push the knob in gently and then re-
lease it;
– set it to the right position.
