Building^-in
It is important that the dimensions and materials of the surround or cabinet into which
the oven will be built are correct and that proper arrangements are made for a
continuous supply of air to the oven so it does not overheat.
Dimensions of the recess for building into a kitchen unit (mm).
Important
To ensure an efficient ventilation, it is
necessary to leave the vents provided at
the bottom of the oven clear.
Securing the oven to the cabinet
Fit the appliance into the cabinet recess.
Open the oven door and secure the oven
to the kitchen cabinet with six wood
screws which fit exactly the holes
provided in the oven frame (Fig. 3).
Cooling fan
The cooling fan is designed to cool the
oven housing and the components of the
oven itself
The fan switches on automatically when
either of the oven control knobs are
turned on.
Cool air is drawn in through the vents at
the bottom of the oven to cool the oven
and housing by absorbing the residual
heat This warm air is then blown out
through the venting grille incorporated in
the upper oven door handle mechanism.
4
Connecting to
electricity
The oven is designed to be connected to
240V - 50 Hz electricity supply.
The upper oven has a heating element
rated at 2500W.
The lower oven ratings are as follows;
Lower element 1000 W
Upper element 1000 W
Grill element 2000 W
The oven has an easily accessible terminal
block which is marked as follows;
Letter L Live terminal
Letter N Neutral terminal
Earth
The cable used must be of the three core
type with a min. cross section of 2.5 mm^
In order to connect it to the oven it is
necessary to remove the hatch at the back
of the oven to reach the terminal block.
For direct connection to the mains supply
a two pole switch with a minimum rating
of 19 A and a minimum distance of 3 mm
between its contacts must be fitted
between the supply and the appliance.
This switch must not break the
yellow/green earth cable at any point.
The appliance must be earthed.
Important
After installation and connecting, the
cable must be placed so that it cannot at
any point reach a temperature more than
50 "C above the ambient temperature.
Before the appliance is connected check
that;
the main fuse and the domestic
installation can support the load;
the power supply is properly earthed;
the double pole switch used to connect the
appliance to the supply is easily accessible
after installation.
The manufacturer disclaims any
responsibility should these safety
instructions not be carried out
This appliance meets the requirements
laid down in EEC Directive No 82/499
dated 7-6-82 relating to the suppression of
radio and TV interference.
5
Use and care
When the appliance is first
installed
Once the appliance is installed the
protective materials which were put on in
the factory must be removed.
The plastic film covering some external
parts can be removed by wiping with a
cloth dipped in methylated spirit.
Other protective materials will bum off if
the controls of the ovens are turned to
MAX and then let the ovens to run empty
for 30 minutes.
This will also remove any unpleasant
smells.
The FM16 consists of two ovens.
The upper oven is evenly heated
throughout A fan in the back waU
distributes heated air round the food
during cooking so that everything cooks in
the same time regardless of where it is
placed in the oven or how much is being
cooked.
Foods of different types, provided they
require the same cooking temperature,
can be cooked together and there is no
possibility of any flavours or smells being
transmitted from one food to another.
This is the Zanussi cuisinair system.
Cooking can be manual or automatic (with
or without the programmer).
The programmer includes an analogue
clock, a minute minder and controls by
which the upper oven can be set to come
on and go off unattended.
The lower oven is a conventional one and
contains a grill.
The grill is controlled by a thermostat
adjusting the selected temperature. By
positioning the grill on “MAX” the max.
temperature is obtained.
The dials above each control knob show
when the oven is switched on, whilst the
indicator lights show the behaviour of the
thermostat during cooking.
A light comes on inside the oven when it
is switched on and remains on until the
oven goes off.
The internal dimensions are:
Top oven
Height 320 mm
Width 420 mm
Depth 390 mm
Capacity 53,0 litres

Using the upper oven
As soon as the oven is switched on the fan
starts and runs until the oven control is
switched off again (Fig. 5).
The food should be put into the oven
before switching on, even when cooking
manually - the speed of heating up is so
fast that there is no need to preheat.
The oven shelves can be fully filled.
Most normal types and materials of
cooking utensils can be used.
During cooking the door should be opened
as little as possible to avoid heat loss and
so excessive electricity consumption.
Important
The anti-tip oven grid must be positioned
as shown in figure 6.
Cooking manually
When cooking manually ensure that the
programmer is not in operation
accidentally.
If this is not the case and you do not want
to use the automatic programmer, return
the control to the manual position.
Arrange the food in the oven, shut the
door and turn the oven control (Fig. 5) to
the required temperature setting.
When the control reaches O ^ the oven
temperature light will come on, also an
internal oven light.
This setting is NOT a cooking position but
is intended for rapid thawing of frozen
food.
Positions from 50 °C to MAX are cooking
positions and give a full range of
temperatures.
The oven temperature light will come on
until the oven has reached the correct
temperature; after that it will come on
and off showing how the temperature is
being maintained.

Cooking automatically
The upper oven cooks automatically when
the programmer is set to switch it on and
off at the times given without the need for
anyone to be in attendance.
Most foods cook well automatically but
preference should be given to those which
will not be affected by the waiting period
before the oven comes on.
Electric programmer
The function of the programmer is to turn
on and off, automatically the upper oven’s
heating element and thus to change the
preset cooking time as one pleases. The
programmer features an electric clock
indicating the hour and the day and a
minute minder with a sound signaling
device.
Operation of the programmer
The figure 7 shows the controls of the
electric programmer.
Knob A-START
By depressing and turning this knob the
C-hand is set on the cooking start time.
Knob B - •cir
By turning this knob anticlockwise or
clockwise it prearranges cooking duration
on dial D (up to 3 hours).
When pulled outwards and turned
clockwise or anticlockwise it enables you
to ad.just the clock time (when installed,
following a power failure, or due to gains
or losses of clock time).
Upper oven manual operation
The oven may be used in a normal
manner, that is to say, without
programming it.
In such cases the programmer’s knob B
must be turned clockwise until symbol
"^coincides with indication of dial D.
Furthermore, the C-hand must be covered
by the hour hand.
Upper oven semi-automatic
operation
Manual cooking start; programmed, i.e.
automatic cooking stop:
Place the food to be cooked into the oven;
'Turn knob B clockwise, and set on dial D
the number of minutes corresponding to
the required cooking end;
Turn the oven knob (Fig. 5) to the
required temperature setting.
Upper oven totally automatic
cooking
Place the food to be cooked in the oven;
Press in and turn knob A so as to set the
C-hand to the required cooking start time
(the C-hand is integral with the hour hand
when the oven is not in the automatic
mode);
Turn knob B, setting on dial D the
required cooking duration.
Turn the oven control knob (Fig. 5) to the
required temperature setting.
When the cooking time is up a sound
signal will indicate that cooking is over.
To stop the sound signal turn knob B
clockwise until the “0” symbol appears on
dial D.
In this position the oven is disconnected
from the electric supply.
If the sound signal is not interrupted it
will do so automatically after
approximately 10 minutes.
9
Example of programmer setting for
automatic operation of the oven.
Cooking start time: 17.00 hours;
Cooking duration: 90 minutes (max.
180 minutes);
Press-in and turn knob A, setting the
C-hand on 5 (corresponding to 17.00
hours);
Turn knob B, setting dial D to 90;
Turn the oven control knob (Fig. 5) to the
desired temperature level.
After carrying out the above settings, the
oven will operate automatically from
17.00 hours to 18.30 hours, i.e., for 1 hour
and 30 minutes.
Minute minder
The programmer will act as a minute
minder only if no automatic cooking is
programmed and the oven is not turned on.
To operate the minute minder, turn knob
B clockwise and set on dial D the required
cooking time. The maximum allowed
cooking duration is 180 minutes.
To stop the sound signal turn knob B until
the “0” symbol coincides with the index of
dialD.
Programmed cooking
Programmed cooking is no different to
normal cooking. The programmer controls
the selected cooking time while one may
be busy doing other things; therefore,
when cooking is carried out automatically
it’s preferable to cook food which does not
require particular attention.
Using the lower oven
Preheat the oven, arrange the food in the
oven, shut the door and turn the selector
knob (Fig. 8) to symbol S ; turn then the
temperature regulator knob (Fig. 9) to the
required temperature.
By turning the selector knob to position
S the oven light will come on;
this operation will also maintain the
general control light on until the knob is
turned again to position “0”. The cooking
positions of the temperature regulator
knob (Fig. 9) are the positions from 50 ’ to
MAX and give a full range of temperatures.
The oven temperature light will come on
and will remain on until the oven has
reached the correct temperature; after
that it will come off and on shovnng how
the temperature is being maintained.
When the oven control reaches □ the
bottom element comes on and a max.
temperature of 280 "C can be obtained.
When the oven control reaches □, the top
element comes on and a max. temperature
of 260 "C can be obtained. These settings
are particularly useful for finishing food
either only on the top or the bottom.
During cooking, the door should be
opened as little as possible to avoid heat
loss and so excessive electricity
consumption.
Attention
If at the end of the programmed cooking
time the oven remains still in operation it
will be necessary to re-program it again or
carry out cooking by setting up the
minute minder.
10
Using the grill
Fig. 8
Fig. 9
The grill is located in the lower oven. As
with the oven, the grill control can be set
to a number of different heats (Fig. 8).
At MAX position the maximum
temperature is obtained.
Foods to be grilled are placed on the wire
grid in the grill pan which can be ac^usted
on the side grids either upwards or
downwards to give the required distance
from the element.
For foods which require a longer grilling,
the grill pan has to be set on the lower
positions.
Important
Because the grill element is in the top of
the lower oven, the door must be opened
when grilling.
This means that the escaping heat from
the grill could overheat the upper oven
door and the control panel, so to prevent
this happening it is essential that the heat
deflector provided to protect the rest of
the appliance is in place before the grill is
switched on.
The deflector is put in place as shown in
Fig. 10.
To use the grill
Open the door and put the heat deflector
in position. Turn the oven selector knob
(Fig. 8) to B an then set the grill
regulator knob (Fig. 9) to the heat setting
required.
A little use and practice will soon show
which heat setting is the best for the
individual user.
When grilling is over remove the heat
deflector and shut the door.
11
Maintenance and
cleaning
Important
The electricity supply must be switched
off before undeitaking any maintenance
operation.
The oven will have a longer life if it is
frequently cleaned thoroughly, paying
special attention to the following;
The cleaning should not be carried out
when the oven is still warm;
The enamelled parts should be cleaned
with lukewarm water and soap without
using abrasive scourers which may
damage them;
The parts in stainless steel after their
cleaning, are to be dried with chamois
leather.
Never use abrasive scourers or steel wool,
muriatic acid or other abrasive cleaners
which may scratch the finish. The
enamelled and glass parts should not be
cleaned while they are still warm.
Grease filter (upper oven)
This filter protects the fan from fat
splashes; it should always be cleaned after
roasting has taken place.
As it is stainless steel you can safely wash
it in a dishwasher.
Install the grease filter only when roasting
fat meats.
Removing the grease filter (Fig. li)
To remove the filter, proceed as follows:
pull up the protruding tongue and then
pull the filter outwards, removing it from
the rear panel.

Removing and cleaning the oven
panels (Supplied on request)
If you wish to remove lateral and upper
panels proceed as follows:
Remove the upper panel; unscrew the
fixing ring nuts of the side runners
(Fig. 12);
Remove the runners and the panels
(Fig. 13);
If necessary, you can also remove the back
panel, but in this case you have also to
disconnect the electricity supply.
Unscrew the panel fixing screws by
means of a screwdriver (Fig. 14).
In order to protect the upper oven the
appliance features an enamelled panel,
suitably shaped, to contain possible liquid
overflowings.
To make thorough cleaning of this panel
easier, you can extract it from the bottom
by pulling it up.
If you use an oven spray cleaner, be
careful not to spray it on the oven fan and
on the thermostat feeler.
Cleaning the lower oven
The oven interior is made of a strong
vitreous enamel and therefore can be
cleaned with any normal caustic oven
cleaner.
Remove, by pulling out, the infrared grill
(Fig. 15) and put the safety plug into the
grill socket (Fig. 15).
Remove the side mnners as described for
the upper oven.
Important
Please take care to follow the oven
cleaner manufacturers instructions
precisely.
Care must be taken to ensure that the
oven cleaner does not come into contact
with the aluminium and painted surfaces
of the appliance.

Replacing appliance components
Prior to undertaking any maintenance
work or replacing the oven lamp or grill
heating element, be sure to disconnect the
appliance from the electric supply.
1. Control Knobs
These can be removed by pulling them
out.
2. Oven lamp replacement
Unscrew glasscap (Fig. 16) and replace
bumt-out bulb with one that resists to
high temperatures (300 "C).
Electric bulb: 15W, 240V, 50Hz, 300"C.
E14.
Removing the oven door
To thoroughly clean the oven you should
remove the door by proceeding as follows:
1. With the aid of a coin, turn the oven
door stops (catches) 45" to the right.
2. Raise the door to the limit stop and
pull it out in a forward direction (Fig. 17).
Grasp the door on the two sides - don’t
pull it by the handle!
To re-install the door:
1. Insert the door into the oven with its
two brackets.
2. Open the oven door and return the door
stops (catches) to their original position.

What happens
if something goes
wrong
Important
If the ovens do not come on when cooking
manually, first check that the fault is with
both ovens - it may be that if it is the
upper one only that is affected there is
probably a simple answer - the
programmer is set to automatic - to set
it to manual turn the control knob to
the required position. If this is not the
answer then:
check that the appliance is connected
correctly;
check that the switch from the supply to
the appliance is ON;
replace the fuse in the socket, where
present, with another of the appropriate
rating;
check that the fuse in the fuse box is
intact
If after all these checks the appliance still
does not work, call your local Zanussi
Network service centre listed in the
telephone directory.
It helps to jot down the address and
telephone number in the space below.
