I used more than one level and they are not all at the same cooking point

Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking fish and meat

To avoid them drying out too much, always cook pieces of meat at least 1kg (2.2 lbs) in weight. In the case of white meat, poultry and fish, bake at low temperatures (150-175°C). In the case of red meat which must be well cooked outside and juicy inside, set the oven at a higher temperature (200- 220°C) for a short time and then decrease the temperature. Generally, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature must be and the longer the cooking time. Place the meat in the centre of the shelf and place the drip pan under the shelf. The shelf should be placed in the centre of the oven. If you wish to have more heat underneath the food, use the 1st level from the bottom. To obtain tasty roasts, always baste well with lard or bacon.

Cooker routine maintenance and cleaning

Before each operation, disconnect the cooker from the electricity. To assure the long life of the cooker, it must be thoroughly cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that:

•the enamelled parts and the self-cleaning panels are washed with warm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them;

•the inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often while it is still warm using warm water and detergent, followed by careful rinsing and drying;

•the electric plates are cleaned with a damp cloth and they should be lubricated with a little oil while they still warm;

•Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into

contact with very hard water or harsh detergents (containing phosphorous) for long periods of time. After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry. It is also recommended to dry any water drops;

N.B: do not close the lid while the electric plates are still hot.

3° Glass

You can buy a special kit to reduce door temperature when the oven is on and save energy. If there are little children in the house, this kit is a must. The kit code number is 12191 and it may be purchased for installation from an authorised dealer or a Technical Assistance Service centre indicated in the list included with the appliance documents.
