7. USE OF THE OVEN
Before using the oven make sure that the electronic programmer
displays the symbol (see paragraph "5.2.1 Clock adjustment") or that
the analog programmer shows the symbol (see paragraph "5.3.5
Manual cooking").
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.
In the models fitted with an electronic programmer, a power failure
causes the display to start flashing and the
symbol to appear.
To re-adjust, see paragraph "0 Electronic Programmer ".
To prevent any steam in the oven creating
problems, open the door in two stages: half open
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully
open. To access food, always leave the door
open as short a time as possible to prevent the
temperature in the oven from falling and ruining
the food.
7.2 Oven Light
It comes on when the function switch knob is turned to any position.
7.3 Storage compartment
A storage compartment, accessible by
pulling on the top edge of the door, is
located beneath the oven.
Never store inflammable materials such as
rags, paper or the like. The compartment is
intended only for holding the metal
accessories of the range.
Never open the storage compartment when the oven is on and still hot.
The temperature inside may be very high.
