Using the oven

Warning!

 Always cook with the oven

door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop
down oven door. Do not allow it to fall
open - support the door using the door
handle, until it is fully open.

The oven has four shelf levels. The shelf
positions are counted from the bottom
of the oven as shown in the diagram.

Important!

 It is important that the oven

accessories are correctly positioned.

Warning!

 Do not place cookware

directly on the oven base.

Warning!

 When cooking with the oven

or grilling, the cover must be kept open
to avoid overheating.

Warning!

 Do not place objects and

cookware directly on the oven base and
do not cover any part of the oven with
aluminium foil while cooking, as this
could cause a heat buildup which would
affect the baking results and damage the
oven enamel. Always place pans, heat-
resisting pans and aluminium trays on
the shelf.

Condensation and steam

The oven is supplied with an exclusive sys-
tem which produces a natural circulation of
air and the constant recycling of steam. This
system makes it possible to cook in a steamy
environment and keep the dishes soft inside
and crusty outside. Moreover, the cooking

time and energy consumption are reduced to
a minimum. During cooking steam may be
produced which can be released when
opening the oven door. This is absolutely
normal.

Warning!

 Always stand back from the

oven when opening the oven door
during cooking or at the end of it to allow
any build up of steam or heat to release.

When food is heated, it produces steam
in the same way as a boiling kettle does.
When steam comes in contact of the
oven door glass, it will condense and
produce water droplets.

To reduce condensation, ensure the oven is
well heated before placing food in the oven
cavity. A short oven pre-heating (about 10
minutes) will then be necessary before any
cooking. We recommend you to wipe away
condensation after each use of the appli-
ance.

Cookware

• Use any oven proof cookware which will

withstand temperatures of 230

°

 C.

• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not

be placed directly against the grid covering
the fan at the back of the oven, or placed
on the oven base.

• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm

- 35 cm (12 in - 14 in) as they will restrict
the circulation of heat and may affect per-
formance.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, con-
ductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way
they transmit heat to the food inside them.

A

: Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware

and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and
base browning.

B

: Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,

aluminium with nonstick interior and col-
oured exterior and dark, heavy utensils in-
crease cooking and base browning.

Cooking fish and meat

You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or
directly on the oven shelf. In this case, re-
member to place the drip tray in the first po-
sition from the bottom with some water in it.
The dripping pan will avoid the falling of mel-
ted fat on the oven base.
