Tips for using oven
■
Using the oven for the first time :
Before using your oven for the first
time, heat it up empty with the door
closed for approximately 15 minutes
on the maximum setting.
The protection which surrounds the
oven cavity may at first produce a
particular smell, which is due to its
composition. You may also notice
that some smoke it produced the first
time the oven is heated.
■
The cooking guide for your appliances
provides the necessary information to
create a certain number of popular dishes.
■
Before beginning cooking, consult the
user instructions to find the most appro-
priate heat setting and the oven level to be
used for the cooking accessories.
■
By turning off the oven 5 to 10 minutes
before the end of your cooking session,
you can benefit from the accumulated
heat and save energy.
■
The adjustment settings for the oven
thermostat in the cooking guide are provi-
ded for information purposes only. Conse-
quently, in order to avoid excess smoke
being produced by a cooking temperature
which is too high, it is preferable to reduce
the oven power setting.

Child safety (according to model)
An additional protection device making it
possible to avoid contact with the oven
door is available from your distributor un-
der the following reference: WHITE GRID.
This device should be fitted if young chil-
dren are present.
- Ensure that your oven door is securely closed, to ensure that the door seal
can play its role effectively.
- Cooking in the oven and on the grill should be carried out with the cooker cover
opened in order to facilitate the removal of hot gases at the back of the work top.
- Do not cover the inside of your oven with aluminium sheet. Otherwise, this will
result in a build-up of heat which will have a harmful effect upon the cooking or
roasting and will damage the enamel.
- During operation, do not leave the oven door open for more than three minutes in
order to avoid excessive temperature at the knobs.
- During use, the appliance gets hot. Take care that neither you nor anyone else
touches the heating elements.
- The oven should not give off smoke. The main cause of smoke is a cooking
temperature which is too high, leading to spattering. In this case, reduce the oven
power setting.
