Energy saving

Only pre-heat the oven if specified in the

cooking table of the Product Description Sheet or in your recipe.

Use dark, black enamelled baking moulds as they

absorb heat very well.

Residual condensation after cooking could

damage the oven and surrounding kitchen units in time. We recommend that you:

- set the lowest temperature;

- cover food;

- remove food from the oven;

- dry the wet parts when the oven is cool.

• Make sure that the electrical cables of other appliances used near the oven do not touch hot parts and are not trapped in the oven door.

• Some oven models are equipped with an air cooling system to prevent the front of the oven and cabinet cavity from reaching excessively high temperatures.

Attention: Steam and smoke are vented through an opening located between the control panel and the oven door. Do not obstruct the vent opening.

• Do not place inflammable material in the oven or nearby: a fire may break out if the oven is inadvertently switched on.

• Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories, when the oven is hot.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN

• Remove the accessories from the oven and heat

it 200°C for about an hour to eliminate the smell of the protective grease and insulating materials. Keep the window open during this operation.

• If alcoholic beverages are added when roasting or cooking cakes and sweets (for example, rum, cognac, wine, etc.) remember that alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. It may happen that vapours released by the alcohol can catch fire when they are in contact with the electric heating element.

• Do not heat sealed containers in the oven (except for packages specifically designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's instructions). The pressure that develops inside the packaging might cause it to explode, damaging the oven.

• Do not use containers made of synthetic material for cooking (except for packages specifically designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's instructions). They could melt at high temperatures.

• Keep an eye on the oven if you are using a lot of fat or oil. Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire!

• Never pull out fully loaded s helves. Use extreme caution.

• Before using the oven, remove:

- stickers on the front and oven door, except for the rating plate;

- cardboard protection and protective plastic film from the front panel controls and other parts of the oven;

- any sticky labels from the accessories (for example, under the drip tray).
