Start-up
and
use
The first time you use your appliance, heat the
empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.
Before operating the product, remove all plastic
film from the sides of the appliance.
Never put objects directly on the bottom of the
oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.
Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
!
WARNING-
Accesible parts may become hot when
the grill is in use. Children should be kept away.
Starting the oven
With these two controls you can select the different
functions of the oven and choose the cooking tempe-
rature suitable for the food you are preparing. The
different cooking functions are set up by operating
the two knobs: the selection knob and the thermostat
knob on the oven panel.

The oven light turns on and so does the bottom heating
element. The temperature, fixed by the thermostat
knob, is reached automatically and kept constant. This
setting is recommended for finishing the cooking of
foods (placed in pans) that are well done on the outside
but still not done inside or for desserts covered with
fruit or jam which require a light browning on top. Note
that this function does not permit reaching the
maximum (250°C) temperature inside for cooking foods
always on this oven setting unless the foods are cakes
which only require temperatures below or equal to
180°C.

The oven light turns on and so does the infra-red ray
grill, and the motor starts turning the spit. The rather
high and direct temperature of the grill permits browning
the outside of meats immediately thus keeping in the
juices and assuring tenderness.

The oven light turns on and so does the double heating
element of the grill and the motor starts turning the
spit. This grill is larger than the average and has a
completely new design: cooking performance is
increased 50%. The double grill makes sure that even
the corners are touched by heat.
! when using the grill, keep the oven door closed to
obtain the best results and
save energy (about
10%).
When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the lower levels
(see cooking table). To catch grease or fat and prevent
smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom rack level.
