WARNINGS

Cooking procedures in this mode must never last more than 60 minutes.

In models with gas oven, the door must be half-open on the first catch during grilling and grill-rotisserie cooking.

In models with electric oven, the door must be close during grilling and grill-rotisserie cooking.

To avoid dangerous overheating when the oven or the grill is used, the glass cover must always be up. The electric grill and the gas oven cannot be used at the same time.

During and after use the accessible parts of the oven may be very hot, and children must always be kept at a distance.

During cooking with the rotisserie, one of the oven trays provided with the cooker should be placed in the bottom of the oven, inserting it on the bottom runners, in order to collect the grease and fats which may be formed.

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.

When using the oven, remove all unused baking sheets and shelves from the interior.
