Common Questions
10 totalHow do I factory reset the Candy Fcm925nrl Ovens?
Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds until the LED flashes red. This clears all settings and returns the device to factory defaults. You will need to re-pair all connected devices after the reset.
What is the correct procedure if I suspect a gas leak?
Do not use a flame to check for leaks; instead, apply soapy water around joints and connections. If bubbles appear, there is a leakage, and you must contact a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
How do I adjust the feet on my Candy Fcm925nrl Oven to level it?
Use a wrench to turn each adjustable foot individually until the oven is perfectly balanced and leveled. Ensure that any liquids in pans remain horizontal.
What steps should I take if the oven does not heat up properly?
Check that the oven control knobs are at the correct position, ensure the correct temperature has been selected, and verify there is no obstruction in the gas supply or electrical connection.
What are the safety recommendations for grilling with the Candy Fcm925nrl Oven?
Keep the top lid of the cooktop open during oven functions, close the oven door when using the grill function. Do not cover inner oven walls or bottom with aluminum foil to prevent damage to enamel.

#### 3. USE OF COOKTOP BURNERS
#### 3.1. USE OF COOKTOP GAS BURNERS
The knobs which control the burners are positioned on the control panel.

Figure 7 Off Position
When the knob is turned so that the 'dot' symbol faces towards the panel, it is in the Off position and the gas valve is closed and the flame will go out.
Maximum Gas Flow Press the burner knob and turn it to the left till the 'dot' symbol faces towards the large flame symbol. The flame is on full at this position. In this position, the gas valve is completely open.
######### Minimum Gas Flow
The flame can be decreased by turning the knob so that the 'dot' symbol faces towards the small flame symbol. The valve will be partially open and the burner will then be on low.
F
Figure 8
Ignition of the Burners Cooktop Gas Burners The burner must be ignited before a pan is placed over it. For models with automatic ignition, the 'spark' button must be pressed. Press the knob controlling the burner you want to ignite and then turn it left to the big flame symbol. Press the ignition button. On models with ignition-thru knobs, press and turn the knob controlling the burner you want to ignite as far as the star symbol; the electrode will be automatically activated. All the electrodes will be activated automatically and the burner to which gas is supplied (that relative to the knob pressed) will ignite. Oven Gas Burners
The button must not be kept pressed down for more than 15 sec. If the burner has not ignited after 15 sec. release the button and open the compartment door and/or wait at least 1min. before attempting again. For other models the gas is ignited by means of the control knobs.
|Make sure that the gas is actually burning after this step! If there is no flame, repeat the procedure| |---|
After ignition, adjust the flame to the size required. Manual ignition (if the electricity supply is not available) Hold a flame (a match or a lit taper or a hand-operated gas lighter), near the burner. WARNING!to wait 1 minute between two ignition tentative. Press and turn the knob of the burner you want to ignite as far as the large flame symbol. If the burner does not catch fire at the first attempt, try again pressing the knob a little longer. When the burner is lit, adjust the flame to the required level. If the burner does not light after several attempts, check the correct position of the burner and its cap. Turn the knob clockwise to the “O” position in order to close the gas flow. If the burner accidentally stops burning, wait at least one minute before attempting to relight it. Some cookers have a flame safety device (see the picture above, safety device F). If the flame goes out, the gas supply is automatically cut off.
Minimum and maximum diameters of the cooking pan bases :
|Burner|Min. Diameter [mm]|Max. Diameter [mm]| |---|---|---| |Auxiliary Burner|Ø 60 mm|Ø 200 mm| |Semi Rapid Burner|Ø 140 mm|Ø 240 mm| |Rapid Burner|Ø 220 mm|Ø 280 mm| |QC|Ø 220 mm|Ø 320 mm|
#### 3.2. USE OF COOKTOP ELECTRICAL PLATES
Turn the knob to the position for the required temperature of the hot plate. The indicator light of the hot plate will come on and the hot plate will start to heat. When cooking is completed, turn the knob to the “O” position. Do not leave the hot plate turned on without a pan on it. The diameter and the base of the pan you use is critical. The minimum diameter of the pan base is 14 cm and the base should be flat. Leave the hot plate to heat up for 5 minutes before placing a pan on it the first time you use it. This will allow the heat resistant coating of the plate to harden due to burning. Use a wet cloth and detergent for cleaning the hot plates. Do not remove food residues from the hot plates with a knife or any other hard, sharp object. Turn on the hot plate for a few moments to dry it after cleaning. However, it must never be left on for more than a few moments without a pan on top.

Suitability of Cooking Pans Keep in mind that larger pans have larger heating surfaces. This will help them to cook the food faster than pans with smaller heating surfaces. Always use pan sizes proportionate to the amount of the food to be cooked. In order to prevent splashing, do not use very small pans, especially for foods with excess liquid. If you use excessively large pans for quick cooked foods, sausages and liquids will stick and residues will remain attached to the pan after being emptied. Closed pans and baking trays or moulds are suggested for cooking sweets. Splashed sugar and juices from an open pan may stick to the cooker surface and will be difficult to remove.
|


| |---|
| | |---|
This is especially important for pans used for roasting or pressurized cooking at high temperature. Do not leave burners unattended without a pan or with an empty pan on top. Check the suitability of cooking pans with respect to the following criteria; They should be heavy. They should completely cover the burner surface; they may be a little bigger but no smaller. Base surfaces should be completely flat and fit well on the cooking surface.
•For the best use of the electric hotplates and to minimize energy consumption, only pans with smooth flat bases should be used. The size of the pan should be as close as possible to the diameter of the hotplate, and never smaller. The base of the pan should be dry and spillage should be avoided. Empty pans must not be left on the plates, and the plates should not be left switched on without a pan.
#### 4. USE OF THE OVEN 4.1. GRILLING
|When grill function is selected, the oven temperature must be adjusted up to 200ºC (max), in case there is an installed termostat on your product.| |---|
|Never cover oven inner walls or the bottom with aluminium foil. Accumulated heat can damage the oven enamel and your meal.| |---|
|While the oven functions are running, top lid of the cooktop must be open position.| |---|
|Oven door must be closed in grill position.| |---|

######### Traditional Cooking
Heat is generated from the upper and lower heaters. Generally, the middle shelf position is preferable for cooking. However, if the top or bottom surface of the food must be cooked more, place it on the upper or lower shelf.
Small fish can be cooked at the maximum temperature from start to finish. Medium sized fish must be cooked at the maximum temperature at the beginning and then the temperature must be slowly reduced. Larger fish must be cooked at lower temperatures from start to finish. Check the cut at the bottom of fish to understand whether it is cooked properly. In order to understand whether the fish properly grilled or not, check the cleavage at the bottom of the fish. The colour (for grilled fish) should be an even matt white. This is not the case for salmon and trout.
