Helpful hints and tips

Warning! Always close the oven door
when you cook, even while grilling.

Do not put baking trays, pots, etc. on the
oven floor to prevent damage to the
oven enamel.

Be careful when you remove or install the
accessories to prevent damage to the
oven enamel.

• The oven has four shelf levels. Count the
shelf levels from the bottom of the oven
floor.

• You can cook different dishes on two lev­els at the same time. Place the shelves on
level 1 and 3.

• The oven is supplied with a special system
which circulates the air and constantly re­cycles the steam. This system allows to
cook in a steamy environment and keep
the food soft inside and crusty outside. It
reduces the cooking time and energy con­sumption to a minimum.

• Moisture can condense in the appliance or
on the glass doors. This is normal. Always
stand back form the appliance when you
open the oven door while cooking. To re­duce condensation, run the oven for 10
minutes before cooking.

The cooling fan

The cooling fan (not visible) keeps the front
panel, the knobs and the oven door handle
cool. When the oven is on the fan switches
on automatically. Warm air blows out
through the air vents near the oven door han­dle. To keep the controls cool, the cooling fan
can still run after the oven is off.

Safety thermostat

To prevent dangerous overheating (through
incorrect use of the appliance or defective
components), the oven is fitted with a safety
thermostat, which interrupts the power sup­ply. The oven switches back on again auto­matically, when the temperature drops.
Should the safety thermostat fail to work, do
not attempt to fix it yourself. Please contact
After Sales Service.

• Wipe away moisture after every use of the
appliance.

Baking cakes

• The best temperature for baking cakes is
between 150 °C and 200 °C.

• Preheat the oven for approximately 10 mi­nutes before baking.

• Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of
the set cooking time is up.

• If you use two baking trays at the same
time, keep one level empty between them.

Cooking meat and fish

• Do not cook meat with weight below 1 kg.
Cooking too small quantities makes the
meat too dry.

• To keep the red meat well cooked outside
and juicy inside set the temperature be­tween 200 °C-250 °C.

• For white meat, poultry and fish set the
temperature between 150°C-175°C.

• Use a dripping pan for very fat food to pre­vent the oven from stains that can be per­manent.

• Leave the meat for approximately 15 mi­nutes before carving so that the juice does
not seep out.

• To avoid too much smoke in the oven dur­ing roasting, pour a little water into the
dripping pan.
