7. USING THE OVEN

7.1

Before using the appliance

Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate) from trays, dripping
pans and the cooking compartment.

Remove any protective film from the outside or inside of the appliance, including
from accessories such as trays, dripping pans, the pizza plate or the base
cover.

Before using the appliance for the first time, remove all accessories from the
oven compartment and wash them as indicated in “8. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE”.
Before using the oven and the grill for the first time, pre-heat to maximum
temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which could
give the food unpleasant odours.
WARNING: the gas oven must be lit with the oven door open. The oven is
equipped with a safety system that blocks ignition of the burner if the door is
closed. If you make a mistake in the lighting procedure, open the oven door and
wait a few moments before trying to light it again.

7.2

General Description

7.2.1 Oven runners

The oven features 

4 runners 

for positioning

trays and racks at different heights. The insertion
heights are numbered from the bottom upwards
(see figure).

7.2.2 Cooling system

The appliance is equipped with a cooling system
which comes into operation as soon as a
cooking function starts. The fan causes a steady
outflow of air from above the door which may
continue for a brief period of time even after the
oven has been turned off.
