8. USE OF THE OVEN
For the models with electronic programmer, before using the oven make sure that the display shows the
symbol .
During and after use the accessible parts of the oven may be very hot, and children must always
be kept at a distance.
8.1 Warnings and general advice
Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature (260°C) for as long
as it takes to burn off any production oil residues which could give a nasty flavour to the food. After a
power cut, the oven display will flash intermittently and show . To adjust refer to paragraph "9.
ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER ”
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials complying with the
requirements of the current directive.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or
oven trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it
so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
To prevent problems caused by steam in the oven, open the door in two stages:
half open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open.
To access food, always leave the door open as short a time as possible to
prevent the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the food.
8.2 Cooling system
The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes on upon a few minutes after the
oven has been turned on.
Fans cause a steady outflow of air from above the door which may continue for a brief period of time
even after the oven has been turned off.
8.3 Use of the electric grill
For short cooking times, for example for browning already-cooked meat, select the static grill function ;
set the thermostat knob to maximum temperature (260°C) and adjust grill intensity by means of the
variable grill knob. The ventilated grill function allows actual cooking to be done, thanks to the forced
ventilation which lets heat penetrate inside the food. For this type of cooking select the ventilated grill
function , set the thermostat knob to the desired cooking temperature (never more than 225°C) and
adjust grill intensity by means of the variable grill knob. Cooking time must not exceed 60 minutes.
8.4 How to use the grill
Once the grill is lit, the red warning light will come on. Leave the oven to heat up for five minutes before
placing the food inside.
Food should be flavoured and basted with oil or melted butter before cooking. An oven dish should be
used to contain the sauces. The food should be placed on the oven shelf which is positioned on one of
the guides supplied with the different ovens, following the instructions below:
