OPERATION - Before first use

1. Remove the packaging.
2. Clean all the accessories to remove any residue that may be left from the manufacturing process (see "Cleaning and maintenance"). Dry them thoroughly.
3. Turn on the top and bottom heating elements for 15 minutes at the highest Temperature with the door open. This will remove any packaging odour from the appliance.

ATTENTION:

- The appliance may emit a little smoke and a characteristic smell when you switch it on for the first time. This is normal and will stop on its own. Make sure the appliance has sufficient ventilation.

OPERATION - Grill

You can use the grill fot food that must be heated, not fried and is large enough not to fall through the grill. The grill can also be used when you want to grill with both top and bottom heat.

OPERATION - Baking tray

The baking tray is used for fine food that really needs to be fried. The heat from the bottom element causes the baking tray to heat up witch will provide cooked food.

OPERATION - Convection function

The fan in the back of the oven blows hot air into the oven. This is used to heat the dishes. You can use several levels at the same time, thus saving energy. Because of the intensiv heat you can select a temperature of 20 °C lower then indicated in the conventional recepy. The hot air system is highly suitable for baking cakes, cookies and apple tarts. You can bake on multiple levels simultaneously if desired, in which case the tins should be aligned directly under one another. Baking sheets with cookies should be positioned on the second and third levels.

It is not necessary to preheat the oven. In certain cases, however, you may achieve a better result if the oven is preheated, for example, for meat that must be cooked medium rare (pink on the inside with a red core) or when baking a cake or pizza.

- If the stone is stored in a cold place, allow it to reach room temperature before use.
- Never take the pizza stone out of a hot oven. Also not with oven gloves on or with the removal handle. The take-out handle will damage the stone and oven gloves cannot protect your hands from the heat of the stone
- The stone will become increasingly dark due to use. This is how it should be and does not need to be cleaned. Never use soapy water or a dishwasher. You can optionally use a putty knife to remove visible dirt. Then rinse with lukewarm water and let it dry before you use the stone again.

9. Set the desired baking time with the time setting (7). The on / off indicator light (8) comes on.
10. Bake the pizza until it is done. At the end of the baking time, an audible signal is heard and the oven switches off automatically. The on / off indicator light goes out.
11. Open the oven door. Careful! The door is hot.
12. Place the spatulas under the pizza and place the pizza on a plate.
13. When you have finished baking, turn the function setting to the position and remove the plug (3) from the wall socket.
