7. USE OF THE OVENS
7.1 Warnings and general advice
Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum
temperature (250°C) long enough to burn any manufacturing oily
residues which could give the food a bad taste.
To avoid problems that may be caused by any vapour
in the ovens, open the doors in two phases: keep them
half open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds then open them
completely. If you need to attend to the food the doors
should be left open for the shortest time possible, thus
avoiding lowering of internal temperature to a point that
might jeopardise final cooking results.
7.2 Oven Light
It comes on when the function switch knob is turned to any position.
7.3 Cooling fan
The appliance is equipped with a cooling system, which comes into
operation as soon as a cooking function is selected. This is also the case
for cooking with the minute minder.
Fans cause a steady outflow of air from the rear top skirtboard on the
rear of the cooking hob, which may continue for a brief period of time
even after the oven has been turned off.
This ventilation system ensures that the temperatures on the outside of
the appliance meet the standards required by the current regulations.
