4.1 Warnings and general advice

Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum
temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which
could give the food a bad taste.

During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or
tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on it as this may damage the
enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so that it
will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.

To prevent any steam in the oven creating
problems, open the door in two stages: half open
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully
open. To access food, always leave the door
open as short a time as possible to prevent the
temperature in the oven from falling and ruining
the food.

Instructions for the user

4.2 Cooling system (on some models only)

perfection, although this time may vary depending on the dough used or
individual taste.

5.1.1 Precautions for using the pizza plate

• Always remove the round cover and fit the pizza plate with the oven
off and cold.

• Never use the pizza plate except as described above (for
example,never use it on gas or ceramic hobs, or on ovens not
designed to take this accessory).

• During use, the appliance becomes very hot; protective gloves
should be worn for all operations.

• If you like oil on your pizza, it is best to add it after removal from the
oven since oil stains on the pizza plate are unsightly and may reduce
its efficiency.

Instructions for the user

5.2 Warnings

8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before performing any operations requiring access to powered
parts, switch off the power supply to the machine.

8.1 Cleaning stainless steel

To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly
after use. Let it cool first.

8.1.1 Ordinary Daily Cleaning

To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface,
rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.

8.1.2 Food stains or residues

Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will
damage the surface.
Use normal non-abrasive products for steel, and a wooden or
plastic tool if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set
inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the
enamel lining of the oven.

8.2 Cleaning of the oven (without self-cleaning panels)

For best oven upkeep clean regularly after having allowed to cool. Take
out all removable parts.

55

Instructions for the user

56

To clean the bottom of the oven, proceed as follows with the oven cold.

1) 2)

Remove the pizza plate and then the base to which it is fixed (Fig. 1).
Lift the base a few mm and then bring it out of the oven.
Now lift the end of the heating element next to the door of the oven and
clean the bottom. When the operation is complete, damp parts should be
dried thoroughly.

• DO NOT USE A STEAM JET FOR CLEANING THE INSIDE OF
THE OVEN.

• Clean the oven grill and side guides with hot water and non-abrasive
detergent. Rinse and dry.

• The oven should be operated at the maximum temperature for about
15/20 minutes after using specific products, to eliminate the residues
deposited inside the oven.

• For easier cleaning, the door can be removed (see P. 8.3)

The pizza plate must be washed separately;

• Before cleaning, remove any dirt burnt onto the stone with the aid of
a metal spatula or a ceramic hob cleaning scraper;

• For the best results, the stone must be still warm; otherwise, wash it
with hot water;

• Use non-abrasive metal mesh pads or scotch-brite, dipped in lemon
or vinegar;

• Never use detergents;

• Never wash in the dishwasher;

• Never leave the stone to soak;

• The damp stone must not be used for a least 8 hours after the end of

the cleaning procedures;

• Over time, slight cracks may appear on the surface of the stone.

• This is due to the normal expansion of the stone's finishing glazes at

high temperatures.

• To refit the pizza plate base, push it snugly against the oven floor
and down so that it locks with the pizza heating element (detail A,
Fig. 2).

Periodically, to prevent food residues and unpleasant smells from
accumulating inside the oven, the appliance should be operated empty at
temperatures of not less than 200°C for a time varying from 30 to 60
minutes, in order to allow the self-cleaning liners to oxidise the residues
present; when the oven has cooled, these will then be removed with a
damp sponge

8.2.3 Looking after the self-cleaning liners

The liners should not be cleaned with abrasive creams or ordinary
detergents. Use a damp sponge only, so as not to damage the special
characteristics of the enamel which coats the liners.

8.2.4 Assembling the self-cleaning liners

1. Remove all accessories from the oven;

2. Remove the side grilles (fig.1);

3. Extract the side liners “F” and “G”(fig. 2);

4. Remove the back panel “A” after undoing the threaded ring-nut “C”

(fig. 2).

5. Reassemble the panels, restoring them to their original position.

8.3 Removing door

With the door completely open, lift the levers A until they touch the

hinges B and take hold of the two sides of the door with both hands
close to the hinges. Raise the door to an angle of about 45° and remove
it. If the hinges have not locked, repeat the operation, raising the levers
and keeping the door slightly raised. To reassemble, fit the hinges B into
their grooves, then lower the door into place, ensuring that it remains
fitted into the grooves C.

8.4 Door glass (on some models only)

The door glass should always be kept clean.

For easier cleaning, the glass parts of the door can be fully removed by
proceeding as described below.
After opening the door and locking it in place with at least one of the
hinges (see point “8.3 Removing door”), remove the two panes of glass.
The first pane is removed in two steps: first slide it along, leaving it
resting on the door frame (1) and then lift it out (2).The second pane
must first be removed from the seat “A” (see detail) by slighting it out a
few centimetres. Then also free it from the seat “B”.
If the door should close during these operations, simply relock one of
the hinges as described in point "8.3 Removing door".
The panes of glass can now be washed separately.

Use absorbent kitchen paper to clean. In case of tough spots, clean with

a damp sponge using regular detergent. This oven door is air cooled.
Care should be taken not to use excess moisture for cleaning, and avoid
spillage through the vents.

Warning: before removing the panes of glass, make sure that the door
has been locked in open position as described in point “8.3 Removing
door”. This operation might have to be repeated during the removal
process if the door is accidentally freed.

9. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

The oven may require extraordinary maintenance or replacement of parts
subject to wear such as seals, bulbs, and so on. The following
instructions describe how to carry out these minor maintenance
operations.

Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the device.

9.1 Replacement of light bulb

Remove the bulb protector A by turning anticlockwise and change bulb B
(in the 8-function model with front glass panel change the halogen bulb
C) with a similar one. Re-fit the bulb protector A.

Only use oven bulbs (T 300°C).

9.2 Oven door seal

To permit thorough cleaning of the oven, the seal
may be removed. Before removing the seal, take off
the door as described above. Once the door has
been taken off, lift the tabs at the corners as shown
in the figure.
After cleaning, refit the seal with the longer side
horizontal and insert the tabs into the appropriate
holes starting from the top ones.
