Using the Oven
The oven is supplied with an exclusive
system which produces a natural
circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam.
This system makes it possible to cook in
a steamy environment and keep the
dishes soft inside and crusty outside.
Moreover, the cooking time and energy
consumption are reduced to a minimum.
During cooking steam may be produced
which can be released when opening the
oven door. This is absolutely normal.
However, always stand back
from the oven when opening the
oven door during cooking or at
the end of it to allow any build
up of steam or heat to release.
Attention! - Do not place objects
on the oven base and do not cover
any part of the oven with aluminium
foil while cooking, as this could
cause a heat build-up which
would affect the baking results and
damage the oven enamel. Always
place pans, heat-resisting pans
and aluminium trays on the shelf
which has been inserted in the
shelf runners. When food is heated,
steam is created, like in a kettle.
When the steam comes into
contact with the glass in the oven
door, it condenses and creates
water droplets.
To reduce condensation, always
preheat the empty oven for 10
minutes.
We recommend you wipe the water
droplets away after every cooking
process.

Conventional Cooking

- The middle shelf position allows for
the best heat distribution. To increase
base browning simply lower the shelf
position. To increase top browning,
raise the shelf position.
- The material and finish of the baking
trays and dishes used will affect base
browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy
or non-stick utensils increase base
browning, while oven glassware,
shiny aluminium or polished steel trays

Always cook with the oven
door closed, even when
grilling. Stand clear when
opening the drop down oven door.
Do not allow it to fall open -
support the door using the door
handle, until it is fully open.
The oven has four shelf levels, and
is supplied with one shelf. The
shelf positions are counted from
the bottom of the oven as shown
in the diagram.
It is important that these shelves
are correctly positioned as shown
in the diagram.
Do not place cookware directly on
the oven base.
