4.1  Warnings and general advice 
Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum 
temperature ( 250°C) long enough to burn any manufacturing oily 
residues which could give the food a bad taste. 
 
 
 During cooking, do not cover the botto m of the oven with aluminium or 
tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on it as this may damage the 
enamel coating.  If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so that it 
will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.  
 
  To prevent any steam in the oven creating 
problems, open the door in two stages: half open 
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully 
open. To access food, always leave the door 
open as short a time as possible to prevent the 
temperature in the oven from falling and ruining 
the food. 
  
4.2 Cooling system 
The oven features cooling fan which switch on 
together with the oven. 
Fan operation causes a normal flow of air which 
exits at the bottom part of the oven front which 
may continue for a brief period of time even after 
the oven has been turned off.
