Steam and condensation may settle in your Zanussi Cookers oven if you leave the dish in the oven for too long after cooking. To prevent this, do not leave dishes in the oven for longer than 15 - 20 minutes after the cooking process ends.

This document is a user manual for a Zanussi cooker, specifically models ZCV66050BA, ZCV66050WA, and ZCV66050XA. It provides comprehensive instructions for installation, safe operation, daily use, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The Zanussi cooker is designed for cooking purposes in a single household domestic indoor environment. It features both a hob and an oven, allowing for a variety of cooking methods. The hob is equipped with radiant heating technology and multiple cooking zones, each with its own heat setting. The oven includes both a top oven and a main oven, offering different functions such as conventional cooking, defrosting, and grilling. The main oven also features a "Thermaflow" function for baking and drying food on multiple shelf positions simultaneously.
Hob: The hob offers various heat settings (1-6) for different cooking applications, from keeping warm to bringing to a boil or deep-frying. A residual heat indicator warns users of hot cooking zones, even after deactivation or if hot cookware is placed on a cold zone. For energy saving, users are advised to use residual heat to complete cooking processes, and to place cookware on the zone before activation. The manual provides guidance on suitable cookware materials and minimum diameters to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency.
Oven: Both the top and main ovens have distinct functions. The top oven is suitable for smaller quantities of food, baking fruitcakes, cookies, savoury flans, or quiche. The main oven is designed for larger quantities and includes the "Thermaflow" function for efficient multi-shelf baking. Oven functions are selected via dedicated knobs, and temperature indicators or symbols provide feedback on the oven's status. The cooling fan automatically activates during oven operation to keep surfaces cool and continues until the oven cools down. Accessories like wire shelves and deep pans are provided for various cooking needs, with specific instructions on their insertion and use, including anti-tip features for safety. The manual includes detailed tables with recommended temperatures, times, and shelf positions for baking various foods in both ovens, as well as roasting and grilling guidelines. For grilling, it's emphasized to always grill with the oven door closed and at maximum temperature. Defrosting instructions advise removing food packaging and not covering the food to avoid extending defrost time.
General Cleaning: Regular cleaning is crucial to prevent the deterioration of surface materials and to avoid fire hazards from fat and food residues. The appliance should be cleaned after each use. For the front of the appliance, a microfibre cloth with warm water and a mild detergent is recommended. Metal surfaces can be cleaned with a cleaning solution, and stains with a mild detergent. The cavity and door should be wiped dry after each use to prevent corrosion from condensation.
Hob Cleaning: Melted plastic, plastic foil, salt, sugar, and sugary foods should be removed immediately from the hob surface using a special hob scraper to prevent damage. Limescale, water rings, fat stains, and shiny metallic discoloration should be removed when the hob is cool, using a moist cloth and a non-abrasive detergent, or a solution of water with vinegar for metallic discoloration. A special cleaner suitable for the hob surface and a special scraper for glass are recommended. Harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers should not be used on the glass door or hinged lids to avoid scratching or shattering the glass.
Oven Cleaning: All accessories should be cleaned and dried after each use using a microfibre cloth with warm water and a mild detergent; non-stick accessories should not be cleaned with abrasive cleaners or sharp-edged objects. The shelf supports are removable for easier cleaning of the oven cavity. Instructions are provided for safely removing and reinstalling these supports. The door glasses in both the top and main ovens can also be removed for cleaning, with specific steps detailed for each oven type.
Lamp Replacement: The oven lamp is a 300 °C heat-resistant oven lamp. Instructions are provided for turning off the oven, disconnecting it from the mains, and carefully replacing the lamp and its glass cover.
Troubleshooting: The manual includes a troubleshooting section to address common issues such as the appliance not activating, the oven not heating up, or the lamp not operating. It provides possible causes and remedies, advising users to check electrical connections, fuses, and settings, and to contact an Authorised Service Centre if problems persist.
