MINUTE MINDER PROGRAMMING
Minute Minder programming allows you to have a simple alarm
after a scheduled time without activating the cooking (mode Minute
Minder). To schedule an "alarm" (Minute Minder mode), press the
knob 3 times until the flashing of "ALARM" icon. Minute Minder
setting is identical to end of cooking time setting (see the corre-
sponding paragraph).
It's possible to use Minute Minder only when there is no current
cooking program active.
DISPLAYING THE PROGRAM SET
The timer allows the display of the program. To view the program set
press and release the knob, at the same time the programmer will
display the program set by moving the hands on the set times and
highlighting the steps with the flashing of the icons. The controller
then returns automatically to display the current time and continues
with the execution of the program.
CANCELLATION OF PROGRAM SET
The timer allows the cancellation of the program. To delete the
program set to press knob for a few seconds until the icons shut
off and emission of the second beep.
The programmer then automatically returns to the manual cooking.
BLACKOUT INDICATION
The timer signals every lack of power supply through the flashing of
the symbol "CLOCK". In this case, to disable it briefly press the knob.
FOR COOKERS WITH SELF-CLEANING OVEN
The two side walls and the back are coated with a catalytic self-
cleaning enamel.
Every 10-15 times it is used, leave the oven empty at full heat. The
time required for cleaning depends on the condition of the oven.
Some splashes tend to set hard and may clog the pores of the spe-
cial coating, preventing oxidation and eliminating its self-cleaning
properties. In this case, as soon as the oven has completely cooled
apply very hot water to soften the deposits and use a soft brush,
without detergent, to remove them. Then switch the oven back on
at maximum heat for a few minutes.
(Important: never use metal brushes or abrasive substances).
HOW TO USE OVEN ACCESSORIES
- The oven shelf is designed to take normal oven dishes for cooking
sweets or roasts, or is used without a pan for cooking foods under
the grill.
- The drip pan under the grill is used to collect juices, which drip
from the food that is cooked directly on the grill. The drip pan can
also be used for cooking.
- Remember that cooking times may vary if food is cooked on two
shelves at the same time.
- The oven is provided with a stop system to extract the racks and
prevent them from coming out of the oven (1).As shown in the
drawing, to extract them completely, simply lift the racks, holding
them on the front part, and pull (2), see fig.18

REMOVING THE OVEN DOOR

The door can be removed to clean the oven in an easier way fol-
lowing this instructions:
1) Open the door completely.
2) Turn the two levers "B" bringing them from position 1 to position
2 (see fig.19).
3) Close the door slowly to a stop, grab it with both hands from side
to side, close it further and pull it by lifting it upwards.
4) To replace the door you must follow the procedure in reverse
order, insert the two hinges in their seats and open the door
completely.
5) Turn the two levers "B" bringing them back in position 1.
6) Close the door normally.
HOW TO USE THE CERAMIC HOB
The hotplate power has a sequential control device which ensures
excellent control of the cooking temperature.
The heat settings are from 1 to 6. The knob can be set in the required
position by turning it to right or left.
On dual circuit plates, the knob only turns clockwise and the heat
settings are from 1 to 6, for the central zones of the plates only.
If the knob is turned forward another notch after the last heat set-
ting, the other zones of the plates will switch on.
When one of the cooking zones is hot, the warning light E (see fig. 1)
comes on; it will not go off until the temperature of all the hotplates
has dropped below about 60 degrees C).
The four cooking zones are indicated by the outlines screen-printed
on the hob. For good efficiency and appropriate energy consump-
tion, only use saucepans and utensils with thick, perfectly flat bot-
toms (see fig.10). The diameter of the base of the pan must be at
least as large as the outline marked on the hob. If the bottom of
the pan does not cover the heating area, energy will be wasted.
Preferably, it should be slightly larger in diameter.
Pan bottoms and the cooking surface must be clean and dry. Oth-
erwise heat, and thus energy, will be wasted.
Note:
- Never cook directly on the hotplates.
- To save time, cooking with the hotplates may be started at full
heat (knob on 6), turning down to the ideal temperature once the
contents of the pan have heated up.
- All the hotplates are equipped with a temperature limiter which
prevents them from overheating, even if a hotplate is operated at
the highest setting with no pan, or if pans with uneven bottoms
are used.
The table below will serve as a guide, bearing in mind that cook-
ing times and temperatures may vary depending on the type and
amount of foods cooked and personal taste.
Knob Cooking process

1 - 2 Keeping foods warm, bechamel sauce, custard
2 - 3 Reheating foods
3 - 4 Pasta, vegetable soups, ragout
4 - 5 Boiling, roasting
5 - 6 Steamed vegetables, steaks, fish
6 Grilling, omelettes, lamb chops
CAUTION
- Do not look directly at the halogen hotplates while they are on, as
the light emitted from the hotplates may be harmful to your eyes.
- The ceramic glass surface is very tough but it is not shatterproof
and it may not be used to place objects upon it.
- It may be damaged if struck violently by sharp or very hard objects.
- If breakages, crazing or cracks appear on its surface, stop using
it and contact the after-sales service immediately.
- Do not place aluminium foil or plastic film wrappings on the hob
while it is still hot.
- Soon after installation, the hob may give off a burnt smell; this will
disappear after the first few times it is used.
IMPORTANT:
Because of their height, children may fail to see the residual heat
warning light. Take care that they do not touch the hob, even if the
heating elements are switched off.

CLEANING OF THE CERAMIC HOB

The ceramic hob is much easier to clean than a hob with conven-
tional hotplates. Light dirt can be removed with a sheet of damp
kitchen paper.
To remove tougher dirt, use the same cleaning methods as for
glass, with specific detergents. If a pan boils over onto the hob,
use a spatula to remove the deposit formed.
Sugar or syrup must be removed immediately before it forms
caramel on the glass. Any residues of aluminium foil or plastic film
wrappings accidentally placed on the hob while it is still hot must
