7.1.3 Programming
Cooking time: the 2
nd
 key 
 can be pressed to set the cooking time. Before it can be set, the
thermostat knob must be turned to the required cooking temperature and the function selector knob to
any setting. To set the cooking time, proceed as follows:
Press key 
; the pointer will go to position 12 and the adjacent symbol 
will flash (Fig. 1).
Within 5 seconds press key 
 or 
 to set the cooking time: each
pressure on 
 adds 1 minute to the cooking time, and every 12 minutes a
new inside segment will light up (figure 2 shows a cooking duration of 1
hour); Once the required time is obtained, cooking will start about 5 seconds
after the last pressure on 
 or 
.
The display will show the current time, represented by the constantly
illuminated segments, and the minutes left to the end of the cooking time,
represented by the flashing segments (each flashing segment means 12
minutes of cooking time left).
At the end of the cooking time the timer will switch the oven heating
elements off, the beeps will start to sound and the numbers on the dial will
flash. The time can also be reset by deleting the program selected: Press the
central key 
 for 2 seconds to cancel the set time and the oven will have to
be manually switched off if the cooking operation is in progress.

  2) 
it is not possible to set a cooking time of more than 12 hours.
Cooking start: as well as setting a cooking time, the cooking start time can also be set (with a maximum
delay of 12 hours in relation to the current time). To set the cooking start/end time, proceed as follows:
Set the cooking time as described in the previous point.
Within 5 seconds of last pressing key 
 or 
, press key 
 again to set the cooking end time.
Symbol 
 will flash on the display together with the current time, with the internal segments
illuminated to show the end of cooking time. Use keys 
 and 
 to set the cooking end time.
5 seconds after the last key is pressed, the display will show the current time and the cooking start
and end times, which will be represented by the illuminated inside segments. The display segments
will be constantly illuminated as long as the current time is not the same as the cooking start time; as
soon as the current time reaches the set starting time, all the inside segments will start to flash,
indicating that the oven has started cooking.
At the end of the cooking time the timer will switch the oven heating
elements off, the buzzer will start to sound and the numbers on the dial
will flash.
To delete the entire set program, hold down the central key 
 for 2 seconds;
if cooking has already started, the oven will have to be switched off manually.
Here we can see a programming example: the current time is 7.06 and
cooking is programmed to start at 8.00 and end at 9.00.
At 8 o'clock the inside segments between 8 and 9 will start to flash, while
the hours hand will remain still.
Warning: for the oven to start cooking after the programming procedures just described, the thermostat and
functions switch knob must be correctly set on the required temperature and function.
