Start-up and use
!The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the room is well ventilated before switching the oven off and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances used during the manufacturing process burning away.

5. The oven switches off automatically after two hours: this default period of time is set for all cooking modes for safety reasons.
The cooking duration may be changed (see Cooking modes).
6. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from where it was interrupted as long as the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.
!There is no preheating stage for the BARBECUE modes.
!Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.
!Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel and the oven door. In the BAKING mode, the cooling fan is only activated when the oven is hot. At the beginning of the FAST CLEAN mode, the cooling fan operates at low speed.
!Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.
Oven light
When the oven is off, the lamp can be turned on at any time by opening the oven door.
