Rack
Useful for supporting containers with food
during cooking.
Evaporation tray cover
Evenly distributes steam inside the oven.
Sponge
Useful for removing condensation from
inside the oven.
The appliance accessories
intended to come into contact with
food are made of materials that
comply with the provisions of
current legislation.
Supplied original and optional
accessories can be requested to
Authorised Assistance Centres.
Use only original accessories
supplied by the manufacturer.
2.5 Other cooking containers
• You may also use your own containers
for cooking, as long as they are resistant
to high temperatures.
• For steam cooking, the use of metal
containers is recommended. Metal
facilitates better distribution of heat to the
foods.
• It is normal for metal containers to
deform somewhat during hightemperature cooking, but they will return
to their original shape when they cool.
• Thick ceramic plates may require more
heat than normal. Longer cooking times
may be necessary.
Some models are not provided
with all accessories.

3.1 Instructions
High temperature inside the oven
during use
Danger of burns
• Keep the oven door closed during
cooking.
• Protect your hands by wearing oven
gloves when moving food inside the
oven.
• Open the appliance door carefully
during or after cooking.
• Take care because steam may not be
visible at certain temperatures.
• Do not cook dishes containing large
quantities of strong alcoholic beverages.
Alcohol vapour inside the oven could
ignite.
• Do not touch the heating elements inside
the oven.
• Do not pour water directly onto very hot
trays.
• Do not allow children to approach the
appliance when it is in operation.
Improper use
Risk of damage to enamelled
surfaces
• When steaming, always place the tray
below the perforated tray in order to
catch any drips.
• Do not cover the bottom of the oven
cavity with aluminium or tin foil sheets.
• The base of the oven and the
evaporation tray must always be left
free.
• Dishes must be heat and steam resistant.
• Do not use silicone moulds when
steaming.
• If you wish to use greaseproof paper,
place it so that it will not interfere with the
hot air circulation inside the oven.
• Do not place pans or trays directly on
the bottom of the oven cavity.
• Do not pour water directly onto very hot
trays.

wait a few seconds until the indicator light
starts flashing, otherwise
continue from step 10.
