Oven indicator light (only available on certain models) out -When lit, it indicates the ovens is heating up to the temperature set. How to use your oven The various features offered by your oven are selected by means of selector knob “B” and thermostat “C” situated on the control panel. Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door and let the room air.The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed. Notice: Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling food or when using the rotisserie (only available on certain models). For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc. etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides. Convection Mode . Position of thermostat knob “C”: between 60°C and Max. On this setting, the top and bottom heating elements come on. This is the classic, traditional type of oven which has been perfected, with exceptional heat distribution and reduced energy consumption. The convection oven is still unequalled when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, Spanish style cod, Ancona style stockfish, tender veal strips with rice, etc. Excellent results are achieved when preparing veal or beef-based dishes as well (braised meats, stew, goulash, wild game, ham etc.) which need to cook slowly and require basting or the addition of liquid. It nonetheless remains the best system for baking cakes as well as fruit and cooking using covered casserole dishes for oven baking. When cooking in convection mode, only use one dripping pan or cooking rack at a time, otherwise the heat distribution will be uneven. Using the different rack heights available, you can balance the amount of heat between the top and the bottom of the oven. Select from among the various rack heights based on whether the dish needs more or less heat from the top. 3 Pastry Mode . Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max. The bottom heating element comes on. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods especially cakes that need to rise because the heat coming from the bottom helps the leavening process. Please note that it takes a considerable amount of time for the higher temperatures to be reached, therefore we recommend you use the “Convection Mode” in these cases. “Top” Oven . Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max. The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking. Grill . Position of thermostat knob “C”: Max The top central heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender.The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc... Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” paragraph. The oven light Set knob “B” to the 3 symbol to turn it on. It lights the oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating ele ments in the oven come on. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, some models are equipped with a cooling fan which comes on automatically when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel. Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently. 4 How to Keep Your Oven in Shape Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance, disconnect it from the power supply.
