A good flame should be blue with a yellow tip.
Some yellow tips on flames up to 1 inch in length are
acceptable as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
If flames are excessively yellow and irregular, the oil residue
may not be completely burned off, or the venturi may be
clogged or may not be properly positioned over the orifices.
Cooking Advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you
to cook any type of food in the best possible way. With time
you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking
appliance and the following directions are only a guideline
which may be varied according to your own personal
experience.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before
or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning
sickness.
Cooking Pizza
For tasty crispy pizzas:
●
Slide the baking tray into the oven.
●
Preheat the oven for at least 20 minutes.
●
Use a light colored pizza pan, placing it on the rack
supplied with the oven. If the dripping pan is used, this will
extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy
crust.
●
Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is
cooking.
Cooking Fish and Meat
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature
settings from 350
o
F (176
o
C) to 425
o
F (218
o
C).
For red meat that should be well done on the outside while
tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high
temperature setting “400
o
F (205
o
C)~425
o
F (218
o
C)” for a short
time, then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting.
Place the meat on the center of the rack and place the dripping
pan beneath to catch the fat.
Make sure that the drip tray is placed in the center of the oven.
If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use
the low rack heights. For savory roasts (especially duck and wild
game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.
Cleaning and Maintenance
How to Keep Your Oven in Shape
Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance,
disconnect it from the power supply.
To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned frequently.
Keep in mind that:
●
Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.
●
The enameled or stainless steel parts should be washed
with lukewarm water without using any abrasive powders
or corrosive substances which could ruin them; Stainless
steel could get stained. If these stains are difficult to
remove, use special products available on the market.
After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry.
●
The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned after
use, when it is still warm, when it is still warm, with hot
water and soap; the soap should be rinsed away and the
interior should be dried throughly. Avoid using abrasive
detergents (for example cleaning powders, etc…) and
abrasive sponges for dishes or acids (such as limescale-
remover, etc…) as these could damage the enamel. If the
grease spots and dirt are particularly tough to remove,
use a special product for oven cleaning by following the
instructions provided on the packet.
●
If you use your oven for an extended period of time,
condensation may form. Dry it using a soft cloth.
●
There is a rubber seal surrounding the oven opening
which guarantees its perfect functioning. Check the
condition of this seal on a regular basis. If necessary,
clean it and avoid using abrasive products or objects to
do so. Should it become damaged, please contract your
nearest After-sales Service Center. We recommend you
avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.
●
Never line the oven bottom with aluminium foil ,as the
consequent accumulation of heat could compromise the
cooking and even damage the enamel.
●
Clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or
sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.
