Prepare the rotisserie rod with the food, tightening the screws A of the
prongs. Fit the frames B into the holes of the drip tray F. Position the
rotisserie rod so that the pulley E is still in the guides on the cavity of

go until the tip of the rod is in line with the hole C. Now rock the frames B
to insert the tip of the rod into the drive connection C of the rotisserie
motor on the side of the oven. Pour a little water in the drip tray to prevent
smoke from forming.
Keep the oven door closed during cooking. Heating up time must not

Regular flashing of the thermostat indicator light during cooking is normal
and indicates that the temperature is being maintained constant inside
the oven.

9.  CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
9.1 Cleaning stainless steel
9.1.1  Ordinary daily cleaning
To clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific
products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface,
rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
9.1.2  Food stains or residues
NEVER USE A JET OF STEAM FOR CLEANING THE APPLIANCE.
Before any intervention that requires access to live parts, disconnect
the appliance from the power supply.
To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly
after use. Let it cool first.
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage
the surface. 
Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, with the aid of
wooden or plastic utensils if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside
the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the
enamel lining of the oven.

Take out all removable parts.
 Clean the oven rack and side runners with warm water and non-
abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry.
 For easier cleaning, the door can be removed (see point 8.2)
 The oven should be operated at the maximum heat setting for 15/20
minutes after use of specific products, to burn off the residues left
inside the oven.
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the
surface.
