THE FIRST TIME YOU USE THE OVEN

Clean the oven thoroughly with soapy water and rinse well. To remove the lateral
frames from smooth-walled ovens, proceed as shown in the figure.
Operate the oven for about 30 minutes at maximum temperature to burn off all traces
of grease which might otherwise create unpleasant smells when cooking.

Important:

As a safety precaution, before cleaning the oven, always disconnect the plug from the
power socket or the power cable from the oven. Do not use acid or alkaline substances
to clean the oven (lemon juice, vinegar, salt, tomatoes etc.). Do not use chlorine based
products, acids or abrasive products to clean the painted surfaces of the oven.

SELF-CLEANING CATALYTIC PANELS

Our smooth walled ovens can be fitted with self-cleaning panels to cover the inside
walls.
These special panels are simply hooked on to the walls before the side frames are
fitted. They are coated in a special, micro-porous catalytic enamel which oxidises and
gradually vaporises splashes of grease and oil at cooking temperatures above 200° C.
If the oven is not clean after cooking fatty foods, operate the empty oven for 60 mi­nutes (max.) at maximum temperature.
Never wash or clean self-cleaning panels with abrasive, acid, or alkaline products.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

CONVENTIONAL COOKING

Conventional cooking uses top and bottom heat to cook a single dish.
Place the food in the oven only once cooking temperature has been reached, i.e. when
the heating indicator goes out.
If you want to increase top or bottom temperature towards the end of the cooking
cycle, set the temperature control to the right position.It is advisable to open the oven
door as little as possible during cooking.

FAN COOKING

For this type of cooking a fan positioned at the back allows the circulation of hot air
inside the oven, creating uniform heat. In this way cooking is more rapid than
conventional cooking. It is a suitable method for cooking dishes on more than one
shelf, especially when the food is of different types (fish, meat etc.)

DEFROSTING

By selecting one of the fan cooking functions and setting the thermostat to zero, the fan
allows cold air to circulate inside the oven. In this way frozen food can be rapidly
defrosted.

It is not essential to pre-heat the oven, but you are advised to do so when cooking
pastries.

7

GRILL COOKING

Use the grill to grill or brown foods. KEEP THE DOOR CLOSED.
Some ovens may be equipped with an electric motor, spit and skewers for turning on
the spit.
Place the shelf with the food to be cooked in the 1st or 2nd position from the top.
Pre-heat the oven for 5 minutes. Turn the thermostat to a temperature between 50° and
200°.

COOLING FAN

The fan is positioned on the upper part of the oven and create a circle of cooling air on
the inside of the furniture and through the door of the oven.
It is turned on when the temperature of the outer shell of the oven reaches 60°C.
By switching on the oven with the thermostat at 200°C the fan starts working after
approx.10 min.
It is turned off when the temperature of the outer shell of the oven descends under
60°C.
By switching off the oven with the thermostat at 200°C the fan stops working after
approx. 30 min.
