using the door handle, until it is fully open.
• Donot lean on an open oven door, or place heavy
items on it. This could damage the appliance. Take care
in the region of the hinges.
Condensation and Steam
Hot steam may be produced when using some cooking
modes. Take care when opening the oven door and always
use oven mitts or pot holders to handle hot cooking utensils.
This oven is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam.
This steam 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.

asaboilingkettledoes.Whensteamcomesincontact
with the oven door glass, it will condense and produce
water droplets. To reduce condensation, ensure the oven
is well heated before placing food in the oven cavity.
Oven preheating will be necessary before any cooking.

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivit y, colour
etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food
inside them.
• Aluminium,earthenware,ovenglasswareandbright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
• Enamelled,castiron,anodizedaluminium,aluminium
withnon-stickinteriorandcolouredexterioranddark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
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.
Alwaysplacedishescentrallyontheshelftoensure
even browning.
Donot place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on the
oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.
Single level cooking gives best results in conventional
modes.Ifyourequiremorethanonelevelcookingusethe
