warning
IMPORTANT: Do not turn off the mains power supply
to the oven during the pyrolytic cycle. A power
failure could cause a temperature increase of the
surround or cabinet.
Using the Oven
• Always cook with the oven door closed.
• S tand clear when opening the drop down oven door.
Do not allow it to fall open. Always support the door
using the door handle, until it is fully open.
• D o not lean on an open oven door, or place heavy
items on it. This could damage the appliance. Take care
in the region of the hinges.
Condensation and Steam
Hot steam may be produced when using some cooking
modes. Take care when opening the oven door and always
use oven mitts or pot holders to handle hot cooking utensils.
This oven is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam.
This steam makes it possible to cook in a steamy
environment and keep the dishes soft inside and
crusty outside. Moreover, the cooking time and energy
consumption are reduced to a minimum. During cooking
steam may be produced which can be released when
opening the oven door. This is absolutely normal.
Always stand back from the oven when opening the
oven door during cooking or at the end of it to allow
any build up of steam or heat to be released.
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle does. When steam comes in contact
with the oven door glass, it will condense and produce
water droplets. To reduce condensation, ensure the oven
is well heated before placing food in the oven cavity.
Oven preheating will be necessary before any cooking.
We recommend that any condensation be wiped away
after each use of the oven.
tips and information
Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.
Do not place objects on the oven base and do not cover
any part of the oven with aluminium foil while cooking, as
this may cause a heat build-up which would affect the
baking results and damage the oven enamel.
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour
etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food
inside them.
• A luminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
• E namelled, cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution.
To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position.
To increase top browning, raise the shelf position.
Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even
browning.
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on the
oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.
Single level cooking gives best results in conventional
modes. If you require more than one level cooking use the
fan cooking function.
