Start-up and use

!

 The first time you use your appliance, heat the

empty oven with its door closed at its maximum
temperature for at least half an hour. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated before switching the oven off
and opening the oven door. The appliance may emit
a slightly unpleasant odour caused by protective
substances used during the manufacturing process
burning away.

!

 Before operating the product, remove all plastic film

from the sides of the appliance.

Starting the oven

1. Select the desired cooking mode by turning the
SELECTOR knob.
2. Select the recommended temperature for the
cooking mode or the desired temperature by turning
the THERMOSTAT knob.
A list detailing cooking modes and suggested
cooking temperatures can be found in the relevant
table (

see Oven cooking advice table).

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 total cooking time and the cooking end

time (

see below).

• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to

the “0” position.

!

 Never put objects directly on the bottom of the

oven; this will avoid the enamel coating being
damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when
cooking with the rotisserie spit.

!

 Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

light illuminates and switches off alternately,
indicating that the thermostat is working and is
maintaining the temperature at a constant level.

Oven light

This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob
to any position other than “0”. It remains lit as long
as the oven is operating. By selecting
