The Controls
The 7 Chefs oven combines the advantages of a
convection oven with those of fan assisted models in a
single appliance.
It is extremely versatile allowing you to choose easily and
safely between different cooking modes. The various
features offered by the oven are selected by means of the
function selector "B" situated on the control panel.
Setting Time and Date
Selecting the language
Press button 3 for a few seconds with the oven turned off.
The languages available appear in sequence on the display
panel. Press button 3 again to select the desired language.
Setting the clock
The clock can only be set if the oven is turned off.
After the appliance has been connected to the power
supply, or following a power failure, the clock displays a
flashing 12:00 or the last time memorised.
The time can be changed by pressing button 1 and resetting
the clock using knob "C", which you can modify only whilst
the scrolling writing crosses the display.
Setting the date
To update the date, press and hold down button 1 until the
word "YEAR" comes up on the display. Update the year by
turning knob "C" and then press button 1 to set the month,
again using knob "C". Press button 1 again to set the day
using knob "C". Press button 1 to memorise the date set.
Minute Minder Feature
The timer can only operate when the oven is turned off.
Please remember that the timer does not control the
starting or stopping of the oven, it merely sounds a buzzer
when the time is up and can be interrupted at any time just
by pressing a button.
To set the Minute Minder, press button 2, and then make
the necessary adjustment using knob "C".
Press button 4 to start the timer.
At all times during the Minute Minder operation, you may:
• adjust its duration using knob "C";
• stop the countdown by pressing button 4 for
approximately 3 seconds or turning knob "B" anti-
clockwise;
• enable/disable the control panel lock, by pressing button
2 for at least 3 seconds (see the paragraph entitled
"Locking and Unlocking the Control Panel").
Locking and Unlocking the Control Panel
This option enables the user to lock all the buttons and
knobs. We especially advise you to use this option if there
are children present. To enable the control panel lock, press
button 2 for a few seconds. The word "LOCKED" comes
up on the display. To restore the usual commands to the
appliance, just press button 2 again for a few seconds.
The word "UNLOCKED" will come up on the display.
Selecting the display panel brightness
To update the date, press and hold down button 4 until the
word "BRIGHTNESS" comes up on the display.
Turn knob "C" clockwise/anticlockwise to increase/
decrease the brightness of the display panel. A few seconds
after this selection, the oven will be ready for further
instructions.
The oven light
At any time, including during pre-heating and cooking, you
can turn the oven light on or off by pressing button 4. When
the oven is turned off, the light turns off automatically 10
minutes after the last instructions were entered onto the
control panel.
Cooling ventilation
In order to reduce the external temperature of the oven,
this appliance has been equipped with a cooling fan. During
cooking, the fan is always on and a normal flow of air can
be heard exiting between the oven door and the control
panel.
In order to raise the temperature inside the oven more
quickly during pre-heating, the speed of the air outlet is
approximately half the speed of air outlet during cooking.
If there is a hob above the oven, the cooling fan may switch
itself on automatically to protect the electronic components,
even if the appliance has been switched off.
Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the
oven cools down sufficiently.
How To Choose a Cooking Mode/Function or a Pre-
Set Recipe:
Turn the function selector "B" clockwise to choose from
the default cooking modes or from the pre-entered recipes
available (see the recipe book).
For each cooking mode, the display will indicate the
following:
• the cooking mode name (or that of the recipe);
• the cooking mode number (or that of the recipe);
• the default temperature;
• the heat sources;
Should the recommended temperature not be to your liking,
you can always adjust it using control "C".
Each cooking mode is also associated with a
recommended cooking time, which you can modify, from
one minute to 10 hours, by pressing button 2 and then
turning control "C" to set it to the desired value. The cooking
time can be adjusted until the scrolling wording disappears
completely from the display panel. The selected cooking
time does not include the time required for preheating the
oven.
To start cooking, press cooking start button 4.
With the exception of the "Fast cooking" and "Grill" modes,
the oven will now begin the pre-heating stage, during which
you may still:
• change the temperature by turning control "C";
• change the cooking time by pressing button 2 and then
turning control "C";
• enable/disable the control panel lock, by pressing but-
ton 2 for at least 3 seconds (see the paragraph entitled
"Locking and Unlocking the Control Panel");
• stop cooking and turn the oven off by turning the function
selector "B" anti-clockwise.
Note: pre-heating is performed automatically by the appli-
ance, which sets the pre-heating time according to the tem-
perature selected by the user. The display panel will feature
how long the oven will take to preheat before cooking starts.
