Oven - Helpful hints and tips Warning! Always close the oven door when you cook, even while grilling. Do not put baking trays, pots, etc. on the oven floor to prevent damage to the oven enamel. Be careful when you remove or install the accessories to prevent damage to the oven enamel. • The oven has four shelf levels. Count the shelf levels from the bottom of the oven floor. • You can cook different dishes on two levels at the same time. Place the shelves on level 1 and 3. • The oven is supplied with a special system which circulates the air and constantly recycles the steam. This system allows to cook in a steamy environment and keep the food soft inside and crusty outside. It reduces the cooking time and energy consumption to a minimum. • Moisture can condense in the appliance or on the glass doors. This is normal. Always stand back form the appliance when you open the oven door while cooking. To reduce condensation, run the oven for 10 minutes before cooking. • Wipe away moisture after every use of the appliance. Baking cakes • The best temperature for baking cakes is between 150 °C and 200 °C. • Preheat the oven for approximately 10 minutes before baking.

Cooking tables To see which oven function you must use, refer to the oven functions list in Oven Daily Use chapter.

• Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the set cooking time is up. • If you use two baking trays at the same time, keep one level empty between them. Cooking meat and fish • Do not cook meat with weight below 1 kg. Cooking too small quantities makes the meat too dry. • To keep the red meat well cooked outside and juicy inside set the temperature between 200 °C-250 °C. • For white meat, poultry and fish set the temperature between 150°C-175°C. • Use a dripping pan for very fatty food to prevent the oven from stains that can be permanent. • Leave the meat for approximately 15 minutes before carving so that the juice does not seep out. • To prevent too much smoke in the oven during roasting, add some water into the dripping pan. To prevent the smoke condensation, add water each time after it dries up. Cooking times Cooking times depend on the type of food, its consistency, and volume. Initially, monitor the performance when you cook. Find the best settings (heat setting, cooking time, etc.) for your cookware, recipes and quantities when you use this appliance.

Ø By-pass in 1/100 mm.

Gas Connection Choose fixed connections or use a flexible pipe in stainless steel in compliance with the

regulation in force. If you use flexible metallic pipes, be careful they do not come in touch with mobile parts or they are not squeezed.

Flexible nonmetal pipes connection If it is possible to easily control the connection in its full area, you can use a flexible pipe. The flexible pipe must be tightly attached by clamps. Installation: use the rubber pipe holder. Always engage the gasket. Then continue with the gas connection. The flexible pipe is prepared for apply when: – it can not get hot more than room temperature, higher than 30°C; – it is no longer than 1500 mm; – it shows no throttles; – it is not subject to traction or torsion; – it does not get in touch with cutting edges or corners; – it can be easily examined in order to check its condition. The control of preservation of the flexible pipe consists in checking that: – it does not show cracks, cuts, marks of burnings on the two ends and on its full length; – the material is not hardened, but shows its correct elasticity; – the fastening clamps are not rusted; – expired term is not due. If one or more defects are visible, do not repair the pipe, but replace it. Important! When installation is complete, make sure that the seal of each pipe fitting is correct. Use a soapy solution, not a flame! The gas supply ramp is on the rear side of the control panel. Warning! Before gas connection disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket or switch off the fuse in the fuse box. Close the primary valve of the gas supply.
