•
Never leave the oven unsupervised when
cooking. Make sure that children do not play
with the appliance.
• To open the oven door, grab the door handle at
its middle. Avoid forcing the oven door when it
is open.
• Do not worry if steam condensation accumulates
on the door and on the inside walls of the oven
during use. This does not affect its working
order.
• Mind hot steam when opening the oven door.
• The appliance becomes very hot during use. Do
not touch the heating elements inside the oven.
Wear oven gloves when placing or removing
pans from the oven.
• In placing foods into or removing them from the
oven, make sure sauces do not drip onto the hot
plate of the oven (overheated oils and fats can
easily ignite).
• Use only ovenware resistant to the temperature
range indicated on the thermostat knob.
• During baking, avoid covering the bottom plate
of the oven or its grid with tin foil or other
material. Saucepans, oven trays and all other
ovenware must always be placed on the oven
grid.
• When you use the grill, do not forget to place the
drip pan beneath it to collect any sauce dripping,
as suggested in the “USEFUL COOKING TIPS “
section.
• After use of the appliance, make sure that all the
controls are set to the off or closed positions.
• IMPORTANT WARNING: During and after use
the oven crystal door and all surfaces may be
very hot. Keep children away from the oven!
IMPORTANT!!!
ALWAYS KEEP THE OVEN DOOR CLOSED
DURING BAKING OR GRILLING.
When a gas oven is being used it produces heat
and humidity in the room where it is installed.
For this reason the room must be well ventilated,
keeping the natural ventilation openings free
(fig. 9) and switching on the mechanical aeration
system (extractor or electric fan figs. 10 and 11).
If the oven is used for a long time additional aeration
may be necessary, for instance, by opening a window
or a more effective aeration by increasing the power of
the mechanical system if there is one.
WHAT TO DO THE FIRST TIME YOU USE THE
OVEN
Before cooking for the first time, ensure the oven is
empty and its door closed, heat the oven at maximum
temperature for 2 hours. This will allow the protective
coating on the interior of the oven to be burnt off and
dissipate the associated smells. During this time do
not stay in the same room and keep it aerated.
After the hour or so has elapsed leave the oven to cool
down and then clean its interior with hot water and a
mild detergent. Also wash the accessories (shelves,
trays, drip pan, spit..) prior to use.
Prior to any cleaning, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity mains.
WARNING - During and after use, the oven door
glass and the accessible parts will become hot
when in use. To avoid burns and scalds children
should be kept away.
