possible and to save on the amount of gas consumed,
it is recommended that only pans that have a lid and a
flat base are used. They should also be suited to the
size of the burner.

The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
Before operating the product, remove all plastic
film from the sides of the appliance.
Never put objects directly on
the bottom of the oven; this
will avoid the enamel coating
being damaged. Only use
position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie
spit.
