EXTERIOR SURFACES
Clean the surfaces with a damp microfibre cloth. If
they are very dirty, add a few drops of pH-neutral
detergent. Finish off with a dry cloth.
Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergents. If any of
these products inadvertently comes into contact with
the surfaces of the appliance, clean immediately with
a damp microfibre cloth.
INTERIOR SURFACES
• After every use, leave the oven to cool and then
clean it, preferably while it is still warm, to remove
any deposits or stains caused by food residues. To
dry any condensation that has formed as a result of
cooking foods with a high water content, leave the
oven to cool completely and then wipe it with a cloth
or sponge.
• The door can be easily removed and refitted to
facilitate cleaning of the glass.
• Clean the glass in the door with a suitable liquid
detergent.
• The upper heating element of the grill can be
lowered to clean the ceiling of the oven.
ACCESSORIES
Soak the accessories in a washing-up liquid solution
after use, handling them with oven gloves if they
are still hot. Food residues can be removed using a
washing-up brush or a sponge.
Do not use steam cleaning
equipment.
Use protective gloves during all
operations.
Carry out the required
operations with the oven cold.
Disconnect the appliance from
the power supply.
Do not use wire wool, abrasive
scourers or abrasive/corrosive
cleaning agents, as these could
damage the surfaces of the
appliance.
LOWERING THE UPPER HEATING ELEMENT
1.
Pull the heating element out a little and lower it
down.
2.
To reposition the heating element, lift it up and
pull it slightly towards you, making sure to fit it into
its seating.

HOW TO READ THE COOKING TABLE
The table lists the best function, accessories and level
to use to cook various different types of food.
Cooking times start from the moment food is placed
in the oven, excluding preheating (where required).
Cooking temperatures and times are approximate
and depend on the amount of food and the type
of accessory used. Use the lowest recommended
settings to begin with and, if the food is not cooked
enough, then switch to higher settings. Use the
accessories supplied and preferably dark-coloured
metal oven dishes and baking trays. You can also use
Pyrex or stoneware pans and accessories, but bear in
mind that cooking times will be slightly longer.
COOKING DIFFERENT FOODS AT THE SAME TIME
The “Forced Air” function enables you to cook
different foods (such as fish and vegetables) on
different shelves at the same time. Remove the food
which requires a shorter cooking time and leave the
food which requires a longer cooking time in the
oven.
