! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty oven
with its door closed at its maximum temperature for at least half

a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective substances
used during the manufacturing process burning away.
Starting the oven

SELECTOR knob.

knob. See the Cooking advice table for cooking modes and
the suggested cooking temperatures (see Cooking Modes).

light will stay on: place the food in the oven.
4. During cooking it is always possible to:
- change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob
- change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob
- stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the "0"
position.

Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a
cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel
and the oven door.

Cooking modes
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes
between 60°C and Max, except for:
• GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level);
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on.
With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one
cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat
will be distributed unevenly.
MULTI-COOKING mode
All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as the fan,
will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout
the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A
maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.
TOP OVEN mode
The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used
to brown food at the end of cooking.
GRILL mode
The top 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:
such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers
