7 USING THE OVEN

Before using the oven in models with an electronic programmer, make sure that the symbol appears on the display.

For models with a clockface and hands, and a timer control, set the programmer to .

7.1General warnings and advice

When using the oven and the grill for the first time, they should be heated to their maximum temperature (260°C for an electric oven, 275°C for a gas oven) for a long enough period to burn off any oily residues from the manufacturing process which may give the food disagreeable odours. After

a power outage, the oven display will flash constantly and the symbol will be displayed. To set the display, see paragraph "8. ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER (ONLY APPLIES TO MODELS EQUIPPED WITH ONE)”.

The oven accessories which may come into contact with food have been made using materials that conform to the provisions of the applicable directive.

ATTENTION: A gas oven must be lit with the door open. The oven is equipped with a safety system to prevent the burner from lighting when the door is closed. If there is a problem, open the door and wait a few moments before relighting.

To avoid being affected by any steam inside the oven, open the door in two stages: initially open it slightly (around 5 cm) for 4 or 5 seconds then open it completely. If the preparation process requires some time, leave the door open as little as possible to prevent the temperature inside the oven from falling too fast and adversely affecting the cooking process.

7.2Cooling ventilation

When the oven is lit, a cooling system starts to operate after a few minutes have passed. The operation of the fans causes a normal flow of air to emerge from under the door, and this may continue for a short period even after the oven has been turned off.

7.3Using the electric grill

7.3.1Using the grill in cooking ranges with an electric oven

For brief cooking processes, for example browning meat which has already been cooked at the end of

the cooking process, select the static grill function and set the thermostat to the maximum temperature. The fan-assisted grill function (only available in certain models) enables complete cooking to be effected due to the forced ventilation which allows the heat to penetrate inside the food.

For this type of cooking, select the fan-assisted grill function and set the thermostat to the correct cooking temperature (no more than 200°C).

7.3.2Grill + rotisserie operation

Both the static grill and the fan-assisted grill can be combined with use of the rotisserie for cooking. Put the end of the spit into the rotisserie socket, select grill function or or the fan-assisted grill function and set the thermostat to the desired temperature (do not exceed 200°C).
