2. HEAT THE OVEN
A new oven may release odours that have been left behind during manufacturing: this is completely normal. Before starting to cook food, we therefore recommend heating the oven with it empty in order to remove any possible odours. Remove any protective cardboard or transparent film from the oven and remove any accessories from inside it. With the oven empty, run the GRILL function at the highest level, for a minimum of 15 minutes. Follow the instructions for setting the function correctly. Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.
Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the appliance for the first time.
