Oven structure

The Openspace oven has a capacity of 70 litres and offers users the option of cooking on 4 shelves at the same time or cooking large quantities which would not necessarily be possible in a traditional oven.

Thanks to the ExtraLarge Space, Openspace offers 10 cooking functions, 6 of which are universal and suitable for any type of cooking, while the remaining 4 are automatic programmes which can be used to achieve perfect results for any recipe.

DRIPPING PAN

￿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. Make sure 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.

￿Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged.

￿Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

￿We suggest not opening the door when cooking foodstuffs which require leavening, so as to not compromise cooking results.

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.

￿Once cooking is completed, the cooling fan activates and deactivates automatically until the oven has cooled down sufficiently.
