USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Carry out an "empty" cooking cycle so as to remove any smell and smoke from the protective coatings applied to metal parts:

• switch on the oven by rotating the timer dial (D) to 15 minutes and set the dial (G) on the highest temperature;
• leave the appliance to operate with the door open in a well-aired environment.

During this operation, it is usual for smoke to come off metal parts and side openings. After this operation, ventilate the room.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• Make sure the crumb door (E) is tightly closed.
• Open the oven door by using the apposite handle (G); the grill (H) will slide outwards automatically (Fig. 2).

• Prepare food to be cooked in an apposite container and position them on the grill (H) or inside the drip pan (F).
  In case of food prepared in the drip pan (F), insert it on the grill (H) (Fig. 3).

• Turn the dial (B) to set the required cooking temperature.

• Close the oven door by using the apposite handle (G); the grill (H) will slide inwards automatically (Fig. 2).

WARNING: Place food at a minimum distance of 2 cm. from the top heating elements.

- Plug in appliance and select cooking time according to food to be prepared by means of the dial (D). At this stage, the oven starts cooking and the temperature light (C) switches on; it switches off when reaching the set temperature or if the dial (D) is manually reset to "0" position.

WARNING: Monitor food while cooking.

• At the end of the cooking time, the oven stops automatically, sending out an alarm.
• After each use, unplug the appliance and open the door. The grill (H) will slide outwards automatically. Remove the drip pan (F) by using suitable oven gloves to prevent burns.

CLEANING

• Frequent cleaning prevents the formation of smoke and unpleasant odours during cooking.
• The oven is equipped with a crumb tray door (E) to be cleaned after every use, once the oven has cooled down completely. Turn the appliance upside down and use the special knob (Fig. 4) to open the drawer, lifting it gently upwards (Fig. 5). Wipe clean with a damp sponge and remove any residues of food, crumbs, etc.
• The drip pan (F) and the grill (H) can be washed in warm soapy water or in the top rack of the dishwasher.
• Always wipe the outside clean with a damp sponge.
  Do not use abrasive products that can damage the paintwork.
• Never use products that might corrode aluminium (spray detergents) to clean the inside surfaces and never scrape the sides with sharp or pointed objects. Wipe with a damp sponge at the end of each use, when the oven has completely cooled.

IMPORTANT: All enamelled parts need to be washed with soapy water or other non-abrasive products.

- When there are grease spots or smoke exhalations, we recommend removing grease with a sponge soaked in hot soapy water.

IMPORTANT: Dry with a soft cloth. Acidic substances such as lemon juice, tomato purée, vinegar or similar can damage the enamel, making it lose shine.
