9.4 Using the auxiliary oven with natural convection
The end of cooking display and the control knobs on the main oven
have no bearing on the operation of the auxiliary oven.
The auxiliary oven with natural convection is equipped with:
x a heating element positioned on the base of the oven (at the bottom);
x a heating element positioned on the ceiling of the oven (at the top) +
grill.
9.4.1 Switching on the auxiliary oven for the first time
The first time it is used, the auxiliary oven may smoke or give off an acrid smell caused by oily
residue from manufacturing that may give unpleasant odours or flavours to food. Before putting
food in the oven, heat the auxiliary oven to the maximum temperature for 30-40 minutes with
the door closed and wait until the smoke or odour has stopped.
To start heating the auxiliary oven, select the temperature (from 60 to MAX) or the required
function by turning the thermostat knob.
9.4.2 Cooking with the grill (auxiliary oven)
Turn the thermostat knob to position and let the auxiliary oven preheat for approximately 5
minutes. For correct operations, position the grill shelf on the third guide from the bottom. It is
however possible to vary the position of the grill shelf according to personal taste and different
cooking requirements. Before putting food in the oven, allow it to preheat for 5 minutes. A cooling
system prevents the control knobs from overheating.
9.4.3 Cooking with the spit (auxiliary oven)
Turn the thermostat knob to position and let the auxiliary oven preheat for approximately 5
minutes. In the meantime, proceed as follows:
x insert the food on to the spit rod A taking care to hold it firm with the two forks B, and balancing
it so as to avoid straining the gearmotor;
x place the pulley C of the spit rod onto the support D after
introducing the opposite end into the hole E, until the coupling with
the gearmotor F so that the rod rotates;
x pour a little water into the dripping pan and position it under the spit
rod;
x monitor the cooking from time to time and check the spit rod is
rotating correctly;
x at the end of the cooking, switch off the auxiliary oven by returning
the thermostat knob to position "0";
x remove the spit rod from the auxiliary oven using the knob G and
wearing an oven glove.
