1.6 - INSTALLATION

1)Check that the appliance has not suffered any damage due to transportation.

2)Place the appliance on a flat, stable surface out of the reach of children (the glass door becomes very hot while the oven is in operation).

3)Before using this appliance, move it two to four inches away from the wall or any object on the counter top. Remove any object that may have been placed on top of the appliance. Do not use on surfaces where heat may be a problem.

4)Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15 min.). This is normal. It is due to the protective substance on heating elements which protects them from salt effects during shipping from the factory.

5)When a function is started, the pilot light B turns on.

1.7 - IMPORTANT TIPS AND TECHNIQUES

POSITIONING THE WIRE SHELVES:

There are two slots on the sides of the oven. Slide one or both shelves into these positions. The upper shelf can be turned over, allowing three different levels. The recipes will suggest the best arrangement (1 to 3; see page 7) where necessary for best results. The shelf reversed in slot 1 must be used only with the dehydrator kit L (optional).

ACCESSORIES AND UTENSILS

The shallow pan H is designed to permit the circulating heat to surround the food (except for the bottom sur- face) more effectively. Use it as you would any shallow baking or roasting pan. Other utensils you own can be used provided that an inch or so of space remains open to allow circulation of the fan-forced heat. Casserole covers should not be used and glass ovenware should not be placed closer than two inches from the upper heating element.

The cookies sheets F provided must also be centered on the shelf. When using both sheets on two wire shelves, place wire shelves

in position 1 and 3.

Use handgrip (if fitted) to bring the wire rack out of the oven when it is hot.

PREHEATING THE OVEN

To pre-heat the oven, press the required function (BAKE, FAN/BAKE, BROIL) and set the desired tempera- ture (only for BAKE and FAN/BAKE). After having pressed START, if no duration has been set, the display will show the countdown starting from the default duration of 1:00 (one hour). On reaching the set tempera- ture, the control will emit 3 times 3 beeps. The ON light (2) will stay on.

USE ALUMINUM FOIL

Do NOT allow foil to touch sides of the oven or the heating elements. Foil can be used to cover foods or the shallow pan (for easier clean-up) provided foil is tucked in securely around the food or the edges of the pan or dish. DO NOT cover the broiling rack as this can cause accumulated grease to catch fire. DO NOT cover the crumb tray (E).

Unlike an ordinary toaster-oven, the DeLonghi features 8 functions: convection and traditional baking and roasting, toasting, broiling, keeping food warm, defrosting frozen foods and even dehydrating sliced fruits for nutritious snacks.
