USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Carry out an "empty" cooking cycle so as to remove any smell and smoke from the protective coat-
ings applied to metal parts:
- switch on the oven by turning the dial (H) to the symbol
and the timer to 15 minutes;
- leave the appliance to operate with the door open in a well-aired environment.
During this operation, it is usual for smoke to come off metal parts and side openings. After this
operation, ventilate the room.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
- Prepare the foods for cooking by placing them on the grill (C) or inside the drip pan (D).
- Plug the appliance into the mains power and use the function select dial (H) to select the type of
cooking required:
top cooking (for gratin);
bottom cooking;
cooking at full power (top and bottom at the same time);
- Turn the dial of the thermostat (G) and set the required cooking temperature.
- Place the grill (C) with the previously prepared food into the oven at the required cooking level (E),
by using the suitable fork (M) (Fig. 2). When cooking foods on the grill (C), also insert the drip pan
(D) at a lower level (E) than the grill (C) so as to collect any cooking fat. We recommend pouring two
glasses of water in the drip pan (D) to prevent smoke, unpleasant odours and build up.
In case of food prepared in the drip pan (D), insert the latter into the oven (Fig. 3).
IMPORTANT: Place foods at a minimum distance of 2 cm from the top heating element.
- Use the dial (L) to set the timer for the required cooking time.
At this stage, the oven starts cooking and the temperature light (I) switches on; it switches off when
reaching the set temperature or if the dial (H) is manually reset to
; set the temperature to the maximum
- 8 -
position.
