[. . . ] The kitchen unit in which the oven is to be fitted must be made of material resistant to temperatures of at least 70°C. Before fixing: you must ensure good ventilation in the oven space to allow proper circulation of the fresh air required for cooling and protecting the internal parts. Make the openings specified on last page according to the type of fitting. The oven must be used only for the purpose for which it was designed: it must only be used for cooking food. [. . . ] Never use the drip tray as a roasting tray as this creates smoke and fat will spatter your oven making it dirty. When the oven is in use, any unused accessories should be removed from the oven. OVEN LIGHTING Disconnect the power supply from the oven before cleaning or replacing the lamp. The bulb and its cover are made of material resistant to high temperatures. After replacing the defective bulb, screw back the protective glass cover. For browning we recommend that you insert the grill onto the fourth level, depending on the proportions of the food (see fig. Almost all food can be cooked under the grill except for very lean game and meat rolls. Meat and fish that are going to be grilled should first be lightly doused with oil. For recommended cooking times and temperatures the first time you use the oven, refer to the tables on pages 13 - 14. You may then wish to vary these times and settings in the light of your own experience. Never clean your oven with abrasive cleaners, wire wool or sharp objects, or the enamel may be damaged beyond repair. GLASS PARTS We recommend you wipe clean the glass door with absorbent kitchen paper every time you use the oven. If the spattering is heavy, then you can clean with a well squeezed sponge and detergent, and rinse. OVEN DOOR SEAL If this gets dirty, clean the oven seal with a slightly damp sponge. Wash and rinse the drip tray in hot water with a sponge soaked in washing up liquid. It can also go in a dish washer or be cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner. The oven door is provided with a safety lock that prevents it being opened during pyrolysis due to the necessity of high temperatures. The pyrolysis cycle may result in a slight odour in the kitchen which will be more or less noticeable depending on the latter's aeration. iMPORTANT: Before carrying out pyrolysis: · Take all accessories out of the oven as they will be damaged in the high pyrolysis temperatures; · Clean away all excess food spills or large scraps of food which would take too long to be destroyed. Effectively, large amounts of grease may catch fire under the intense heat emitted by pyrolysis. If you have an hob top installed above the oven, never use the gas burners or the electric plates during pyrolysis to avoid excessive heating of the oven's control panel. It is strongly advised not to use detergents or any other recommended product for cleaning ovens. [. . . ] Caution: the correct way to use foil is with the shiny side in towards the cake. If not the heat is reflected by the shiny surface and does not penetrate the food. Avoid opening the door during the first 20 to 25 minutes of cooking: soufflés, brioches, sponge cakes, etc. You can check if cakes are done by pricking the centre with a knife blade or metal knitting needle.
