7. USING THE OVEN
7.1 Precautions and General Advice
When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated
to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues
left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with
unpleasant smells.
During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin
foil, and do not place pans or oven dishes on it; this may damage the
enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, position it so that it
does not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.
Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from
materials compliant with EEC directive 89/109 of 21/12/88 and national
relevant regulations.
To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside
the oven, open the door in two stages; hold it open
just a little (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open
it completely. If you have to check or carry out other
procedures on food during cooking, leave the door
open for as short a time as possible to prevent a
drop in the oven temperature which will impair the
cooking results. When the door is opened the
oven's internal fan cuts out automatically; it starts
up again when the door is closed (Depending on
models).
