9. USE OF THE OVEN

9.1 Warnings and general advice

Using the oven and the grill for the first time, heat them to the maximum temperature (260°C) for as long as it takes to burn off any production oil residues which could give a nasty flavour to the food.

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

Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials complying with the requirements of the current directive.

To prevent problems caused by steam in the oven, open the door in two stages: half open (5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open.

To access food, always leave the door open as short a time as possible to prevent the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the food.

9.2 Cooling system

The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes on upon a few minutes after the oven has been turned on.

Fans cause a steady outflow of air from above the door which may continue for a brief period of time even after the oven has been turned off.

9.3 Use of the electric grill

For short cooking procedures, such as the final crisping of meat which is already cooked, select the static grill function and turn the thermostat knob to the maximum temperature. The fan grill function allows actual cooking procedures to be carried out, thanks to the fan function which ensures that the

heat penetrates into the food. For this cooking mode, select the fan grill function and turn the thermostat knob to the ideal cooking temperature (never set at more than 220). Cooking procedures in this mode must never last more than 60 minutes.

All cooking with the grill and grill + spit must be done with the door closed to prevent the knobs and the front panel of the equipment to overheat.

Failure to do this will void the warranty.

9.3.1 How to use the grill

Food should be flavoured and basted with oil or melted butter before cooking. An oven dish should be used to contain the sauces. The food should be placed on the oven shelf which is positioned on one of the guides supplied with the different ovens, following the instructions below:
