-
During cooking it is always possible to:
-
change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob
-
change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob
- set the cooking duration in addition to the cooking end time (see Cooking modes)
- stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.
- The oven switches off automatically after two hours: this default period of time is set for all cooking modes for safety reasons.
The cooking duration may be changed (see Cooking modes).
- If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from where it was interrupted as long as the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.
! There is no preheating stage for the FAST COOKING and BARBECUE modes.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being damaged.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
Cooling ventilation
