Condensation and steam
The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant recycling
of steam. This system makes it possible to cook in a steamy
environment and keep the dishes soft inside and crusty
outside. Moreover, the cooking time and energy
consumption are reduced to a minimum. During cooking
steam may be produced which can be released when opening
the oven door. This is absolutely normal.

Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly
against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven,
or placed on the oven base.

This oven is provided with a cooling fan, meant to keep the
front panel, the knobs and the oven door handle cool. The
fan switches on automatically after a few minutes of cooking.
Warm air is blown out through vents between the oven
door and the control panel, as shown in the diagram. When
the oven is switched off, the fan will remain on in order to to
keep the controls cool, after which it switches off automatically.
This is quite normal.
