WARNING: The appliance and some of its accessible parts may become very hot during use. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements. Children less than 8 years of age shall be kept away unless continuously supervised.

The appliance is not intended to be controlled by external timers or separate remote controll system.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass/ the glass of hinged lids of the hob (as appropriate), since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

Do not use steam cleaners or high-pressure cleaners to clean the appliance as this may result in an electric shock.

WARNING: Before replacing the light bulb, make sure the appliance has been disconnected from the mains power, in order to prevent the hazard of an electric shock.

Never pour water directly on the bottom of the oven cavity. Temperature differences could result in damage to the enamel coating.

Other important safety warnings

The appliance is intended for household use. Do not use it for any other purpose, such as room heating, drying of pets or other animals, paper, fabrics, herbs etc. As this may lead to injury or fire hazard.

Appliance must be connected to fixed wiring which has incorporated means of disconnection. Fixed wiring must be made in accordance with the wiring rules.

We recommend that (due to appliance weight) at least two persons carry and install the appliance.

Do not lift the appliance by holding it by the door handle.

Oven door hinges may be damaged when under excessive load. Do not stand or sit on the open oven door, and do not lean against it. Also, do not place any heavy objects onto the oven door.

If the power cords of other appliances placed near this appliance get entangled in the oven door, they can be damaged, which in turn can result in a short circuit. Therefore, make sure the power cords of other appliances are always at a safe distance.

Make sure the vents are never covered or obstructed in any other way.

Do not line the oven cavity with aluminium foil, and do not place any baking trays or other cookware on the oven bottom. This would obstruct and reduce air circulation in the oven, slow down the baking process, and destroy the enamel coating.

We recommend you avoid opening the oven door during baking, as this increases power consumption and increases condensate accumulation.

At the end of the baking process, and during baking, be careful when opening the oven door, as there is danger of scalding.

To prevent limescale accumulation, leave the oven door open after baking or using the oven, to allow the oven cavity to cool down to room temperature.

Clean the oven when it has completely cooled down.

Eventual mismatches in colour shades between different appliances or components within a single design line may occur due to various factors, such as different angles under which the appliances are observed, different coloured backgrounds, materials, and room illumination.

Do not use the appliance if it is damaged. Unplug the appliance from the power mains and call an authorized service centre.

The oven can be safely used with or without baking pan guides.

Do not store items in the oven, which could cause danger when the oven is switched on.

  • The guides allow cooking or baking on 5 rack levels.

  • The height levels of guides into which the racks can be inserted shall be counted from bottom up.

  • Guide levels 4 and 5 are intended for grilling/broiling.

  • When inserting equipment, it should be correctly rotated.

Wire guides

žična vodila_bio21

In case of wire guides, always insert the wire rack and the baking tray into the slot between the upper and lower part of each guide level.

Fixed pull-out guides

(depending on the model)

teleskopska vodila_bio21

Pull-out guides may be fitted for the 2nd and 4th level.

In case of fixed pull-out guides, place the rack or baking tray onto the guide. You can place the wire rack directly onto a baking tray (shallow or deep all-purpose baking tray) and place both onto the same guide; in this case, the baking tray acts as a drip tray.

Click-on pull-out guides

(depending on the model)

flexi vodila_bio21

The click-on pull-out guide can be inserted into any space between two wire guides.
Place the guide symmetrically onto the wire guides on the left and the right side of the oven cavity. First, hook the upper clip of the guide under the wire of the wire guide. Then, press the lower clip into the right position until you hear a CLICK.

NOTE: The guides can be attached to any height between two levels of wire guides.

The click-on pull-out guides cannot be mounted onto guides with fixed double-level partial extension. They can, however, be mounted on to single-level partially extendible guides, to levels 3–4 and 4–5.

Make sure the pull-out guide is correctly rotated and that it extends outwards, i.e. out from the oven.

Oven door switch

(depending on the model)

If the oven door is opened during oven operation, the switch turns off the heater and fan in the oven cavity. When the door is closed, the switch turns the appliance operation back on.

Cooling fan

The appliance is fitted with a cooling fan that cools the housing, the door, and the appliance control unit. After the oven is switched off, the cooling fan continues to operate for a short while in order to cool down the oven.

Oven equipment and accessories

(depending on the model)

resetka

The WIRE RACK is used for grilling/broiling or as support for a pan, baking tray or baking dish with the food you are baking.

There is a safety latch on the wire rack. Therefore, the wire rack has to be lifted slightly at the front when pulling it out from the oven.

nizek pekac

SHALLOW BAKING TRAY is used for flat and small pastry. It can also be used as a drip tray.

The shallow baking tray may deform as it heats up in the oven. Once it cools down, it returns to the initial shape. Such deformation does not affect its function.

globok pekac

The ALL-AROUND DEEP BAKING TRAY is used for roasting vegetables and baking moist pastry. It can also be used as a drip tray.

Never insert the all-purpose (or universal) deep baking tray into the first guide during baking.

The appliance and some of the accessible parts tend to heat up during cooking.

Before first use

  • Remove oven accessories and any packaging (cardboard, polystyrene foam) from the oven.

  • Wipe the oven accessories and interior with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive or aggressive cloths or cleaners.

  • Heat an empty oven for approximately one hour with the top and bottom heater system at a temperature of 250 °C. The characteristic "new oven scent" will be released; therefore, ventilate the room thoroughly during this process.

HOT AIR 1
Hot air allows better flow of hot air around the food. This way, it dries out the surface and creates a thicker crust. Use this system to cook meat, pastry and vegetables, and to dry food on a single rack or multiple racks simultaneously. Steam injection results in better browning and more crunchiness of the surface.

simbol_para_bio21You can add steam to the baking process with these systems. The basic function will operate when the system is selected. By using a baking tray with water, the function is changed to baking with addition of steam (see chapter Start of operation).

LARGE GRILL
Use this system to grill large amounts of flat-shaped food like toast, open sandwiches, grill sausages, fish, skewers etc., as well as for cooking au gratin and for browning the crust. The heaters mounted on the top of the oven cavity evenly heat the entire surface.
Maximum allowed temperature is 240 °C.

počasna peka_bio21

SLOW BAKING2
For gentle, slow and even cooking of meat, fish and pastry on a single rack. This cooking method will leave the meat with a higher water content, making it juicier and more tender, while pastry will be evenly browned/baked. This system is used in the temperature range between 140 °C and 220 °C.

This function is used for determining the energy efficiency class pursuant to the EN 60350-1 standard.

If you do not wish to use the timer switch or if the time is either shorter than 15 minutes or longer than 120 minutes, then the manual setting is recommended. Rotate the knob to the left to the symbol simbol_roka_bio21_min. In the "0" position the oven will not operate.

Starting the cooking process

After 10 seconds, when the system, temperature, and the timer switch are set, the oven starts to operate.

In models with a timer function, select the cooking time or rotate the switch-off timer to the manual (hand) position simbol_roka_bio21_min.

During the cooking process, you can change the SYSTEM, TEMPERATURE, and TIMER FUNCTIONS.

uporaba_entry steam_bio21

Baking with addition of steamsimbol_para_bio21
Steam injection results in better browning and a crunchier crust.
In systems with steam addition or injection, place the shallow baking sheet in the first-level guide while the oven is still cool. Pour a maximum of 2 dl of water onto the baking sheet. Place the food to be cooked on the second level and start the system.

If you are using a deep baking tray, insert it one level higher than specified in the recommended settings table.
For optimum operation of the function, do not open the oven door and do not add water during the cooking process.

End of cooking by touching

Rotate the SYSTEM SELECTOR KNOB and the TEMPERATURE KNOB to position "0". An acoustic signal will be sounded.

After the use of the oven, some water may be left in the condensate channel (underneath the door). Wipe the channel with a sponge or a cloth.

General tips and advice for baking

  • Remove all unnecessary equipment from the oven during baking

  • Use equipment made of heat-resistant non-reflective materials (supplied baking trays and dishes, enamel-coated cookware, tempered glass cookware). Bright-coloured materials (stainless steel or aluminium) materials reflect heat. As a result, thermal processing of food in them is less effective.

  • Always insert the baking sheets and trays to the end of the guides. When baking on the wire rack, place the baking dishes or trays in the middle of the rack.

  • For optimum food preparation, we recommend observing the guidelines specified in the cooking table. Choose the lower specified temperature and the shortest specified cooking time. When this time expires, check the results and then adjust the settings as necessary.

  • Unless it is absolutely necessary, do not open the oven door during baking.

  • Do not place the baking trays directly onto the oven cavity bottom.

  • Do not use the all-purpose deep baking tray on the 1st guide level while the appliance is operating.

  • Do not cover the oven cavity bottom or the wire rack with aluminium foil.

  • With longer cooking programs, you can switch off the oven approximately 10 minutes before the end of cooking time to make use of the accumulated heat.

  • Always place the baking dishes onto the wire rack.

  • When baking on several levels at the same time, insert the all-purpose deep baking tray into the lower level.

  • When cooking according to recipes from older cookbooks, use the bottom and top heater system (as in conventional ovens) and set the temperature 10 °C lower than specified in the recipe.

  • If you are using parchment paper, make sure it is resistant to high-temperatures. Always trim it accordingly. Parchment paper prevents the food from sticking to the baking tray and makes it easier to remove the food from the baking tray.

  • When cooking larger cuts of meat or pastry with higher water content, a lot of steam will be generated inside the oven, which in turn may condense on the oven door. This is a normal phenomenon which will not affect the operation of the appliance. After the cooking process, wipe the door and the door glass dry.

  • When baking directly on the wire rack, insert the all-purpose deep tray one level lower to serve as a drip tray.

Fast preheating of the oven: Only preheat the oven if required by the recipe of in the tables in these instructions for use. If you are using the fast preheating function, do not insert the food into the oven until the oven is fully heated. Temperature has a substantial effect on the final result. Fast preheating is recommended for delicate cuts of meat (sirloin), and for yeast-leavened and sponge dough that require a shorter baking time. Heating an empty oven consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, if possible, we recommend cooking several dishes in succession, or making several dishes simultaneously.

GentleBake: Allows slow and controlled cooking at a low temperature. The meat juices are distributed evenly, and the meat remains juicy and tender. The GentleBake slow cooking method is suitable for delicate boneless meat cuts. Before slow cooking, sear the meat thoroughly from all sides in a frying pan.

Cooking table

NOTE: Dishes requiring a fully pre-heated oven are indicated with a single asterisk * in the table. Dishes for which a 5-minute pre-heating cycle suffices are indicated with two asterisks **. In this case, do not use the rapid preheat mode.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the power mains and wait for the appliance to cool down.

Children should not clean the appliance or perform maintenance tasks without proper supervision.

For easier cleaning, oven cavity and baking tray are coated with special enamel for a smooth and resistant surface.

Regularly clean the appliance and use warm water and hand dishwashing liquid to remove larger impurities and limescale. Use a clean soft cloth or sponge cloth.

Appliance exterior: use hot soapsuds and a soft cloth to remove impurities, then wipe the surfaces dry.

Appliance interior: for stubborn dirt and grime, use conventional oven cleaners. When using such cleaners, thoroughly wipe the appliance with a wet cloth to remove all cleaner residue.

Accessories and guides: clean with hot soapsuds and a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt and grime, we recommend prior soaking and use of a brush.

If the cleaning results are not satisfactory, repeat the cleaning process.

Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaners and accessories (abrasive sponges and detergents, stain and rust removers, scrapers for glass ceramic plates).

Oven equipment is dishwasher-safe.

Food residue (fat, sugar, protein) can ignite during the use of the appliance. Therefore, remove larger chunks of dirt from the oven interior and accessories before each use.

Using the Aqua Clean program to clean the oven

This program makes it easier to remove any stains from inside the oven.
The function is the most effective if used regularly, after each use.
Before running the cleaning program, remove all large visible chunks of dirt and food residues from the oven cavity.

čiščenje_aqua_bio21

1Insert the shallow baking tray into the first guide level and pour 0.4 litres of hot water into it.

2Turn the SYSTEM SELECTOR KNOB to Aqua Cleanaqua_bio21. Set the TEMPERATURE KNOB to 80 °C.

3Let the program operate for half an hour.

4When the program is completed, carefully remove the baking tray, using oven mitts (there can still be some water on the baking tray). Wipe down the stains with damp cloth and soapsuds. Thoroughly wipe the appliance with a wet cloth to remove all cleaner residue.

If the cleaning process is not successful (in case of particularly stubborn dirt), repeat it.

Use the Aqua Clean system when the oven has fully cooled down.

Removing wire and fixed pull-out (extendible) guides

AHold the guides by the bottom side and pull them towards the center of the oven cavity.

BRemove them from the openings at the top.

When removing the guides, take care not to damage the enamel coating.

Removing and replacing the oven door and glass panes

snemanje in vstavljenje vrat in stekla_bio21

1First, fully open the door (as far as it will go).

2Oven door is attached to the hinges with special supports that also include safety levers. Rotate the safety levers towards the door by 90°. Slowly close the door to a 45° angle (relative to the position of the fully closed door); then, lift the door and pull it out.

Oven door glass pane can be cleaned from the inside, but it has to be removed from the appliance door first. First, proceed as described under item 2, but do not remove it.

3Remove the air guide. Hold it on the left- and right-hand side of the door with your hands. Remove it by slightly pulling it towards you.

4Hold the door glass at the upper edge and remove it. To the same for the second and third glass pane (depending on the model).

5To replace the glass panes, observe the reverse order.

To replace the door, follow the reverse order. If the door does not open or close properly, make sure the notches on the hinges are aligned with the hinge beds.

The oven door hinge can close with considerable force. Therefore, always rotate both safety levers to the support when fitting or removing the appliance door.

Soft door closing and opening

(depending on the model)

Oven door is fitted with a system that dampens the door closing force, starting at the a 75°angle. It allows simple, quiet, and gentle opening and closing of the door. A gentle push (to a 15° angle relative to the closed door position) is enough for the door to close automatically and softly.

If the force applied to close the door is too strong, the effect of the system is reduced or the system will be bypassed for safety.

Replacing the bulb

The bulb is a consumable and therefore not covered by warranty. Before replacing the bulb, remove all accessories from the oven.

Halogen lamp: G9, 230 V, 25 W

Only replace the light bulb when the appliance is disconnected from power supply.
