2.3 Other parts

Shelves

The appliance features shelves for positioning trays and racks at different heights. The insertion heights are indicated from the bottom upwards (see 2.1 General Description).

Cooling fan

The fan cools the oven and comes into operation during cooking.

The fan causes a steady outflow of air from above the door which may continue for a brief period of time even after the appliance has been turned off.

Interior lighting

The oven light comes on when the door is opened or any function is selected. To save energy, the lamp will remain on for one minute at the beginning of each cooking cycle (this feature can be disabled through the secondary menu).

Turn the temperature knob briefly to the right to activate or deactivate internal lighting.

Description

2.4 Microwaves

The appliance is equipped with a microwave generator called a magnetron. The microwaves generated are evenly emitted into the oven compartment in order to reach the food and heat it.

Heating takes place through the process of friction between the molecules contained within the food (mainly water molecules), with the consequent generation of heat.

The heat generated directly inside the food leads to defrosting, re-heating or cooking in a shorter length of time compared to traditional cooking.

The use of suitable containers for microwave cooking allows the microwaves to reach the food in a uniform manner (see Materials suitable for microwaves).

2.5 Available accessories

Some models are not provided with all accessories.

Rack

Useful for supporting containers with food during cooking.

The oven accessories intended to come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with the provisions of current legislation.

Original supplied and optional accessories can be requested to Authorised Assistance Centres. Use only original accessories supplied by the manufacturer.
