7. USING THE OVEN
7.1
Precautions and General Advice
All cooking operations must be carried out with the door closed
When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated
to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues
left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with
unpleasant smells.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium
or tin foil, and do not place pans or trays on it; this may damage the
enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, position it so
that it does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from
materials compliant with directive 89/109/EEC of 21/12/88 and relevant
national regulations.
To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside
the oven, open the door in two stages: hold it half-
open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it
completely. If you have to carry out any procedures
on foods, leave the door open for as short a time as
possible to prevent a drop in the oven temperature
which will impair the cooking results.
To prevent excessive amounts of condensation from forming on the
internal glass, food should not be left inside the oven for too long after
cooking.
