burn any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad taste.
After a power failure, the display will flash at regular intervals showing

paragraph "

ELECTRONIC PROGRAMME
”.
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials complying with
the requirements of the current directive.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans
or oven trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper,
place it so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
To prevent any steam in the oven creating problems, open the door in two
stages: half open ( 5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully open. To
access food, always leave the door open as short a time as possible to prevent
the temperature in the oven from falling and ruining the food.
5.2
Cooling system
The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes on upon the oven being
turned on.
Fans cause 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.
5.3
Use of the electric grill
For short cooking procedures, such as the final crisping of meat which is already cooked, select the
static grill function
and turn the thermostat knob to the maximum temperature. The fan grill function
(certain models only) allows actual cooking procedures to be carried out, thanks to the fan function
which ensures that the heat penetrates into the food. For this cooking mode, select the fan grill
function
and turn the thermostat knob to the ideal cooking temperature (never set at more than
225° C).
