7.USING THE OVENS

7.1Precautions and General Advice

When the oven is used for the first time, it should be heated to the maximum temperature (250-220°C) for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells.

During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil, and do not place pans or trays on it; this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, position it so that it does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.

To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside the oven, open the door in two stages: hold it half-open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it completely. If you have to carry out any procedures on foods, leave the door open for as short a time as possible to prevent a drop in the oven temperature which will impair the cooking results.

7.2 Oven light

It comes on when the function selector is turned to any setting.

7.3 Cooling fan system

The appliance is equipped with a cooling system which comes into operation as soon as a cooking function is selected. This also applies for timed cooking processes.

Operation of fans generates a normal air flow which comes out above the door and may continue for a short time even after the oven is switched off.

7.4 Storage compartment

The storage compartment is in the bottom of the cooker, underneath the ovens. To open it, pull on the top of the door.

Never use it to store flammable materials such as rags, paper, etc.; it is intended to take the appliance's metal accessories only.

Caution: when the ovens are in use, the bottom inside surface of the storage compartment may become hot.
