General warnings Thank you for choosing one of our products. To get the most out of your oven we recommend that you: Read the notes in this manual carefully: they contain important instructions on how to install, use and service this oven safely. Keep this booklet in a safe place for easy, future reference.
USEFUL TIPS Grilling Grilling makes it possible to give food a rich brown colour quickly. For browning we recommend that you insert the grill onto the fourth level, depending in the proportions of the food (pag.8). Almost all food can be cooked under the grill except for very lean game and meat rolls. Meat and fish that are going to be grilled should first be lightly doused with oil.
Service centre Before calling the Service Centre If the oven is not working, we recommend that: — you check that the oven is properly plugged into the power supply. If the cause of the fault cannot be detected: disconnect the oven from the mains, do not touch the oven and call the after sales service. Before calling the Service Centre remember to make a note of the serial number on the serial number specifications plate.

COOKING TIPS Temperatures and cooking times are given for information only to facilitate using the oven. Personal experience should then let you adapt these settings to your taste and habits. Remember that cooking at higher temperatures causes more spattering, and the oven can become dirty and smoky.
Page 15
COOKING TIPS MEAT It is better not to salt meats until after cooking as salt encourages the meat to spatter fat. This will dirty the oven and make a lot of smoke. Joints of white meat, pork, veal, lamb and fish can be put into the oven cold. The cooking time is longer than in a preheated oven, but it cooks through to the centre better as the heat has more time to penetrate the joint.
