6. Cooking suggestions

6.1 Suggestions for using the oven correctly

6.1.1 Traditional cooking

With this type of cooking, the heat comes from the top and the bottom. It is therefore preferable to use the central guides. If the cooking requires a hotter temperature from the bottom or from the top, use the lower or upper guides. Traditional cooking is recommended for all food that requires high cooking temperatures, or long brazing times. This system is also recommended when cooking with recipients made of terracotta, porcelain and similar materials.

6.1.2 Convection cooking

With this type of cooking, the food is heated by preheated air that is circulated in the oven thanks to a fan located on the rear wall of the oven. Heat rapidly and evenly reaches all parts of the oven, thus enabling different food to be cooked at the same time on different shelves. The possibility of cooking on more than one shelf allows you to cook many different dishes at the same time. Biscuits and mini pizzas can be cooked in three different baking tins. The oven, however, can also be used for cooking on a single shelf. The lower shelves can be used so that it is easier to monitor cooking. Convection cooking is particularly convenient for bringing frozen food rapidly back to room temperature, for sterilising preserves or home-made fruit in syrup and, finally, for drying mushrooms or fruit.

Cooking in a steam-filled environment has considerable advantages over traditional cooking. It preserves the flavour by drastically reducing the evaporation of liquid, thus maintaining the organoleptic and nutritional qualities. It facilitates heat distribution, resulting in more even cooking and reduces cooking times, thus saving energy. The steam cooking function can be used at low temperatures (100°C), to gently cook fish and vegetables, and at higher temperatures to cook desserts and other dishes when wishing to preserve their delicate flavour.

6.1.4 Fan assisted steam cooking

Fan assisted steam cooking has all the aforementioned advantages of traditional steam cooking, with the added advantage of perfect ventilation which ensures even heat distribution and therefore enables different foods to be cooked simultaneously at different cooking levels. Fan assisted steam cooking is particularly recommended for large or delicate cuts of meat.

6.1.5 Cooking with the grill

The heat comes from the top. Almost all meat can be grilled, with the exception of lean game and dishes such as meat-loaf. Meat and fish to be grilled should be lightly drizzled with oil and placed on the grid bars, which should be placed in the guides closest to or farthest away from the grill element, depending on the thickness of the meat, so as to avoid burning the surface and cooking too little inside.

Position the grill pan on the lowest level to collect the juices and fat; pour one glass of water into the grill pan to prevent smoke forming due to fat overheating.

6.1.6 Cooking with the ventilated grill

Using the combination of grill and fan. This type of cooking allows the heat to penetrate gradually inside the food, even though the surface is directly exposed to the grill.Instructions for the user

6.2 Examples of cooking

(*) corresponds to the position of the grill or tray from the bottom. (**) see instructions in section “5.3.6” page 62.

7. Cleaning and maintenance

Before performing any operations, switch off the power supply to the appliance.

Do not clean the surfaces of the appliance when they are still hot. Use only suitable detergents to clean the surfaces of the appliance. The manufacturer declines all responsibility and is not liable for damage arising from the use of unsuitable and/or other detergents than those indicated. Do not use pressure or steam spray guns to clean the appliance.

7.1 Cleaning the stainless steel surfaces

To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, use a solution of warm water and vinegar or neutral soap. Pour the solution onto a damp cloth and wipe the steel surface, in the direction of the satin finish, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. Do not under any circumstances use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers that may damage the surfaces. Only use non-scratch, non-abrasive sponges and, if necessary, wooden or plastic utensils.

7.2 Cleaning the enamelled surfaces

Clean with a non-scratch, non-abrasive sponge dampened with neutral soap and water. Grease stains can easily be eliminated with hot water or a product specifically made for cleaning enamel. Rinse carefully and dry with a soft cloth or a piece of deerskin. Do not use products containing abrasives, scouring pads, steel wool or acid, which may spoil the surfaces. Do not leave acid or alkaline substances on the enamel (lemon juice, vinegar, salt, etc.).

7.3 Cleaning the polished surfaces

Clean with a non-abrasive, scratchproof sponge dampened with warm water and neutral soap or with a standard detergent for polished surfaces. Rinse and dry carefully with a soft cloth. Abrasive pastes, coarse wire pads, steel wool or acid will damage the surfaces. Do not use alcohol.

7.4 Cleaning the knobs and the control panel

Clean the knobs and the control panel with a damp cloth.Instructions for the user

7.5 Cleaning the oven

In order to preserve the oven well, it should be cleaned regularly, each time it is used if possible, after leaving it to cool: in this way it is possible to remove any residue more easily, preventing it from burning the next time the oven is used. Clean the stainless steel parts and enamelled parts as described in the corresponding sections “7.1 Cleaning the stainless steel surfaces” and “7.2 Cleaning the enamelled surfaces”. Take out all the removable parts and wash them separately. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

Never use detergent products to clean this type of oven. The walls of the oven can be cleaned using white vinegar and wiped with a cloth dampened with water. Subsequently, heat the oven for at least one hour at 150°C to facilitate cleaning. When the oven has cooled, wipe it again with a damp cloth.

We recommend always keeping the oven door clean. Use kitchen roll and on tougher dirt use a damp cloth and household detergent.

Spray products for cleaning the oven must not be used to clean the fan and the thermostat sensor inside the oven compartment.Instructions for the user

Periodically, it is necessary to maintain or replace some parts that are subject to wear and tear. Specific instructions are given below for each type of maintenance.

Though this operation is possible, it should not be performed by everyone, as it requires the strength to hold up the door and a minimum of expertise to re-fit it. If you are not sure of being able to do this, we recommend that you clean the door without taking it off or, in special cases, that you contact the nearest authorised service centre.

To remove the door, proceed as follows:

• open the oven door and release the safety catches of the hinges by turning the respective pins A (one for each hinge) backward;

• partially close the door until there is no more load tension on the springs (the door will form an angle of about 30°);

• using both hands, accompany the movement of the door towards closure and simultaneously lift it upward;

• turn the lower part of the door towards the outside to free the hinges B from their seats.

The inner glass can be removed for more thorough cleaning.

• loosen screw C by half a turn to enable the catch to be lifted from right to left;

• lift the two catches and slide out the inner glass;

• to refit the glass, follow the above instructions in reverse order.Instructions for the user

To clean the area between the outer glass and the intermediate glass, use a soft brush in the space between the glass panels, as shown on p. 72. To refit the door, follow the instructions on p. 72 in reverse order. When the hinges B are back in their seats, open the door all the way and re-fit the safety catches of the hinges, lowering the respective pins A (one for each hinge).

CAUTION: After re-fitting the door, always be sure to re-fit the hinge safety catches.

8.2 Removing the side rack-holder frames

The rack-holder frames can be removed to clean them separately and to facilitate cleaning the oven walls. The frames are hooked to the oven wall in the three points indicated by the arrows in the figure (detail 1).
