required.

For foods prepared inside the drip pan (C), it is first necessary to place the grill (B) inside the oven

and then to place the drip pan (C) on it (Fig. 2).

IMPORTANT: Place foods at a minimum distance of 2 cm from the top heating element.

At this point, the oven will commence cooking and the On indicator light (G) will switch on: it

switches off when the set cooking time has stopped automatically or if the dial (H) is reset to “0”.

IMPORTANT: Keep an eye on the food while it is cooking.

CLEANING

ATTENTION: NEVER PLACE THE APPLIANCE BODY, PLUG OR POWER CORD IN WATER OR

OTHER LIQUIDS; ALWAYS WIPE CLEAN WITH A DAMP CLOTH.

ATTENTION: ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE ELECTRICITY MAINS BEFORE

FITTING OR REMOVING SINGLE ATTACHMENTS OR BEFORE CLEANING THE APPLIANCE.

- Frequent cleaning prevents the formation of smoke and unpleasant odours during cooking.

- The oven has a crumb tray door (I) which needs to be cleaned after every use, once the oven has

cooled down completely: turn the appliance upside down and use the special knob to open the

drawer, lifting it gently upwards (Fig. 3). Wipe clean with a damp sponge and remove any residues

of food, crumbs, etc.

- The drip pan (C) and the grill (B) can be washed in warm soapy water or in the top rack of the

dishwasher.

- Always wipe the outside clean with a damp sponge.

Do not use abrasive products that can damage the paintwork.

- Never use products that might corrode aluminium (spray detergents) to clean the inside surfaces

and never scrape the sides with sharp or pointed objects. Wipe with a damp sponge at the end

of each use, when the oven has completely cooled.

IMPORTANT: All enamelled parts need to be washed with soapy water or other non-abrasive prod-

ucts.

- When there are grease spots or smoke exhalations, we recommend removing grease with a

sponge soaked in hot soapy water.

IMPORTANT: Dry with a soft cloth. Acidic substances such as lemon juice, tomato purée, vinegar

or similar can damage the enamel, making it lose shine.
