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.

When food is heated, it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle does. When steam comes in
contact of the oven door glass, it will condense and
produce water droplets.
To reduce condensation, ensure the oven is well
heated before placing food in the oven cavity. A short
oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) will then be
necessary before any cooking.
We recommend you to wipe away condensation after
each use of the appliance.

•
Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
•
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.
•
Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12
in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and
may affect performance.

This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of
malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequent over-
heating, the safety device will stop the power supply to the
appliance. If this happens, call your local Repair agent. Under
no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance
yourself.

The Cooling Fan
The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled
through vents between the oven door and the control panel,
as shown in the diagram.
The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off to
keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
