OVEN COOKING
For efficient oven preheating, we rec-
ommend that grill trays and racks are
removed from the oven and replaced
after about 15 minutes.
Before introducing the food, preheat the
oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is
advisable to remove the tray from the
oven and introduce it together with the
food, when the oven has reached the
desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn off the
oven 5 minutes before the theoretical
time to recuperate the stored heat.
