Before using for the first time
- Clean the appliance (see General care
and cleaning) and remove any packing
materials completely.
- Before using the appliance for the first
time, let the interior heat up for 10
minutes with both heating elements on.
A slight smell may be emitted; this is
normal and will only last for a very short
time. Ensure sufficient ventilation.
- Before using the hot-plates for the first
time, let them heat up for approximately
3 minutes at maximum power, while
ensuring sufficient ventilation. This will
help to ‘burn in’ the protective coating
which safeguards the hot-plates against
corrosion. During this process, a slight
smell and a little smoke may be emitted.
This is normal and will only last for a very
short time.
Using the oven compartment
- Pre-heat the oven compartment for
several minutes with the door closed,
using both heating elements. Set the
temperature control knob to the required
level.
- With one or both heating elements
switched on, the compartment is
illuminated by the interior lamp.
- Place the food to be cooked on the
baking rack. When cooking food
containing fat or moisture, use the baking
tray to stop any dripping into the interior
of the appliance.
- Close the door and set the temperature
control knob to the required level.
- For overhead baking or grilling, either
the upper or the upper and lower
elements may be selected.
- The switch settings (upper heat/lower
heat) may be changed during the cooking
process.
