be.Place the meat in the centre of the grid and put a spill-
tray underneath to catch grease drips. Insert the grid so
that it is in the middle of the oven. If more heat from below
is required, use the 1° bottom shelf.
To grill
When using any of the grilling modes, it is recommended
that the thermostat knob be turned to the highest setting,
as it is the most efficient way to use the grill (which
utilizes infrared rays). If necessary, however, the
thermostat can be set to lower temperatures for grilling.
When using the grill functions, place the grid on the
lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and
grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and
smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st
oven rack from the bottom.

Cooker routine maintenance and cleaning

Before each operation, disconnect the cooker from the
electricity.To assure the long life of the cooker, it must be
thoroughly cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that:
· Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.
· the enamelled parts and the self-cleaning panels are
washed with warm water without using any abrasive
powders or corrosive substances which could ruin
them;
· the inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often
while it is still warm using warm water and detergent,
followed by careful rinsing and drying;
· the electric plates are cleaned with a damp cloth and
they should be lubricated with a little oil while they still
warm;
· Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into
contact with very hard water or harsh detergents
(containing phosphorous) for long periods of time. After
cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry. It
is also recommended to dry any water drops;
Important: always use the grill with the oven door
closed. This will allow you both to obtain excellent results
and to save on energy (approximately 10%). Table 1
includes the recommended temperatures, cooking times
and positions for you to obtain the best results when
cooking.
