2. HEAT THE OVEN

A new oven may release odours that have been left
behind during manufacturing: this is completely
normal.
Before starting to cook food, we therefore
recommend heating the oven with it empty in order
to remove any possible odours.
Remove any protective cardboard or transparent film
from the oven and remove any accessories from inside
it.
Heat the oven to 250 °C for about one hour,
preferably using the “Convection Bake” function. The
oven must be empty during this time.
Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.

Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the
appliance for the rst time.
