INSERTING THE WIRE SHELF AND OTHER ACCESSORIES

. Insert the wire shelf onto the level you require by holding it tilted slightly upwards and resting the raised rear side (pointing upwards) down first. Then slide it horizontally along the shelf guide as far as possible.

FUNCTIONS

CONVENTIONAL

For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.

FORCED AIR

For cooking different foods that require the same cooking temperature on several shelves (maximum three) at the same time. This function can be used to cook different foods without odours being transferred from one food to another.

MAXI COOKING

For cooking large joints of meat (above 2.5 kg). We recommend turning the meat over during cooking to ensure that both sides brown evenly. We also recommend basting the joint every so often to prevent it from drying out excessively.

PIZZA

For baking different types and sizes of pizza and bread. It is a good idea to swap the position of the baking trays halfway through cooking.

GRILL

For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages, cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread. When grilling meat, we recommend using a drip tray to collect the cooking juices: position the pan on any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml of drinking water.

TURBO GRILL

For roasting large joints of meat (legs, roast beef, chicken). We recommend using a drip tray to collect the cooking juices: position the pan on any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml of drinking water.

. The other accessories, such as the drip tray and the baking tray, are inserted horizontally by sliding them along the shelf guides. . The shelf guides can be removed to facilitate the oven cleaning: pull them to remove from their seats.

A new oven may release odours that have been left behind during manufacturing: this is completely normal. Before starting to cook food, we therefore recommend heating the oven with it empty in order to remove any possible odours.

Remove any protective cardboard or transparent film from the oven and remove any accessories from inside it.

Heat the oven to 250 °C for about one hour, preferably using the “Maxi cooking” function. The oven must be empty during this time. Follow the instructions for setting the function correctly.

Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the appliance for the first time.
