Instructions for the User

9. USING THE OVEN

Before using the oven, check that the display is showing the symbol.

The appliance becomes very hot during use. Oven gloves should always be worn.

9.1 Precautions and General Advice

When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells. After an interruption in the electricity supply, the display flashes at regular

intervals, showing . For setting instructions, see point “11. ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER”.

Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials compliant with the relevant regulations.

During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil, and do not place pans or trays on it; this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, position it so that it does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.

To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside the oven, open the door in two stages: hold it half-open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it completely. If you have to carry out any procedures on foods, leave the door open for as short a time as possible to prevent a drop in the oven temperature which will impair the cooking results. When the door is opened the oven's internal fan cuts out automatically; it starts up again when the door is closed.

9.2 Cooling fan system

A cooling system comes into operation a few minutes after the oven is switched on. Operation of the fan generates a normal air flow which comes out above the door and may continue for a short time even after the oven is turned off.

9.3 Using the electric grill

For short cooking procedures, such as final browning of cooked meat, select the static grill function and turn the thermostat knob to the maxium temprature setting. The fan grill function (on some models only) allows real cooking processes to be carried out, thanks to the forced fan system that ensures the heat penetrates inside the food. For this type of cooking operation, select the fan grill function and use the function selector knob to set the ideal cooking temperature (in all cases no more than 200°C).

9.3.1 Operation of the grill + rotisserie

The grill function allows cooking in combination with the rotisserie. Fit the spit rod into the rotisserie bushing, select the grill function and turn the thermostat knob to the temperature required (never exceed 200°C).

Prepare the rotisserie rod with the food and tighten the screws A of the prongs. Fit the supporting frame B onto the third runners from the bottom. Remove the handle D and position the rotisserie rod so that the pulley E can turn on the frame B. Push the frame B fully into the oven until the tip of the rotisserie rod enters the hole C on the rear wall of the oven. Place a tray F on the bottom runners and pour a little water into it to prevent smoke from forming.
