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.

For short cooking times, for example for browning already-cooked meat, select the static grill function ; set the thermostat knob to maximum temperature and adjust grill intensity by means of the variable grill knob.
