9.1 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 "11.
ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER ”
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.
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials complying with the
requirements of the current directive.
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.
9.2 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.
9.3 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). 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). Cooking time must not exceed 60 minutes.
9.3.1 Operation of the grill + rotisserie (only on some models)
The function can be used for cooking in combination with the rotisserie. Fit the spit rod into the
rotisserie bushing, select the or fan grill function and set the thermostat knob to maximum temperature
(260°C).
Cooking procedures with grill and rotisserie must never last more than 60 minutes.
All cooking procedures with grill + rotisserie must be carried out with the door closed to prevent the
knobs and front panel of the appliance from overheating.
