Setting the Time on Your Oven

Modern ovens may feature different types of control panels - such as touchscreens, rotary knobs, or digital buttons. Because each configuration can have a unique process for setting/changing the time, we recommend referring to the specific steps outlined in your oven’s user manual.

Set the time by following the instructions in the user manual (chapter Clock Functions / Before First Use).

How to find the correct user manual for your oven

If you are unsure which instructions apply to your oven, download the user manual for your specific model.

1. Open the oven door.
2. Locate the data plate on the oven frame.
3. Find the PNC (Product Number Code) on the data plate.
4. Go to the User Manual download page.
5. Enter the PNC (without spaces) in the search field.
6. Download the manual for your oven.

Using the PNC ensures that you receive instructions that match your exact oven model.

The ways of setting the time vary depending on the type of control panel.
