USING THE OVEN
Before using the oven in models with an electronic programmer, make sure that the symbol
appears on the display.
For models with a clockface and hands, and a timer control, set the programmer to
.
7.1
General warnings and advice
When using the oven and the grill for the first time, they should be heated to their maximum
temperature (
260
°C for an electric oven,
275
°C for a gas oven) for a long enough period to burn off
any oily residues from the manufacturing process which may give the food disagreeable odours. After
a power outage, the oven display will flash constantly and the
symbol will be displayed. To set
the display, see paragraph "8. ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMER (ONLY APPLIES TO MODELS
EQUIPPED WITH ONE)”.
The oven accessories which may come into contact with food have been made using materials that
conform to the provisions of the applicable directive.
ATTENTION: A gas oven must be lit with the door open. The oven is
equipped with a safety system to prevent the burner from lighting when
the door is closed. If there is a problem, open the door and wait a few
moments before relighting.
To avoid being affected by any steam inside the oven, open the door in two
stages: initially open it slightly (around 5 cm) for 4 or 5 seconds then open it
completely. If the preparation process requires some time, leave the door open
as little as possible to prevent the temperature inside the oven from falling too
fast and adversely affecting the cooking process.
7.2
Cooling ventilation
When the oven is lit, a cooling system starts to operate after a few minutes have passed. The
operation of the fans causes a normal flow of air to emerge from under the door, and this may
continue for a short period even after the oven has been turned off.
7.3
Using the electric grill
7.3.1
Using the grill in cooking ranges with an electric oven
For brief cooking processes, for example browning meat which has already been cooked at the end of
the cooking process, select the static grill function
and set the thermostat to the maximum
temperature. The fan-assisted grill function (only available in certain models) enables complete
cooking to be effected due to the forced ventilation which allows the heat to penetrate inside the food.
For this type of cooking, select the fan-assisted grill function
and set the thermostat to the correct
cooking temperature (no more than 200°C).
7.3.2
Grill + rotisserie operation
Both the static grill and the fan-assisted grill can be combined with use of the rotisserie for cooking.
Put the end of the spit into the rotisserie socket, select grill function
or
or the fan-assisted grill
function
and set the thermostat to the desired temperature (do not exceed 200°C).
