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 rôtisserie (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, alu- minium foil, etc. etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides. N.B.: Should the appliance be equipped with an electronic programmer, to use the electric oven, just press button 0 (the lj symbol will appear on the display) before selecting the desired cooking function.

The oven light Set knob “B” to the J symbol to turn it on. It lights the oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating elements 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.
