HOW TO USE YOUR ELECTRIC OVEN
- Before cooking in the first time we reccommend that the oven
should be operated at 200° C for 30 minutes to remove any
manufacturing greases and odours.
- Do not place items or pan directly on to the oven botton.
- Foil should only be used to cover food and not oven shelves or
party of the oven. When used improperly will obstruct the air
circulation causing problems in cooking and/or harmful accidents.

• a lower heating element;
• an upper heating element;
• a circular heating element surrounding the fan.

You obtain very good results when cooking on a shelf adjusting
the temperature between 60 and MAX°C.
Fan oven
Both the fan and the circular heating element operate together.
The hot air adjustable between 60 and MAX°C is evenly distributed
inside the oven. This is ideal for cooking several types of food
(meat, fish) at the same time without affecting taste and smell.

The fan assisted grill replaces perfectly the turnspit. You can obtain
very good results also with large quantities of poultry, sausage,
red meat. Turn the thermostat control knob to the 200°C position.
