Use of the oven

3. Use of the oven

3.1Warnings and general advice

Using the oven for the first time, heat it to the maximum (250°C) for sufficient time to burn away any oily residues from manufacture.

The heating elements and the fan are de-activated when the oven door is opened.

If you have to do something with the food in the oven, leave the door open for the shortest possible time so that the internal temperature doesn’t drop to the extent of spoiling the cooking.

3.2Switching on the oven

Select the required function with the function selector knob;

select manual cooking (or a cooking time as indicated in the paragraph "2.2 Description of commands");

select the temperature with the thermostat knob.

3.3Inside light bulbs

Turn on the inside light bulbs by turning the function selector knob to any position or by opening the door with the oven turned off.

3.4Cooling ventilation

The appliance is equipped with a cooling system which comes into operation when the oven is switched on.

When the fans are on they cause a normal air flow to come out from the top and bottom of the door, which will continue for a short time after the oven has been switched off.

3.5Safety thermostat

If the temperature rises excessively due to a technical fault, a safety thermostat will be tripped, switching the appliance off. Disconnect the power supply to the appliance and contact an authorised service centre.

3.6Technical Failure

Quick flashing of any warning light indicates a technical failure. Disconnect the power supply to the appliance and contact an authorised service centre.
