USEFUL TIPS
Grilling
Grilling makes it possible to give food a rich brown colour quickly.
For browning we recommend that you insert the grill onto the fourth level, depending in the
proportions of the food.
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.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean the stainless steel and enamelled surfaces with warm, soapy water or with suitable
brand products. On no account use abrasive powders that may damage surfaces and ruin the
oven's appearance.
It is very important to clean the oven each time that it is used. Melted fat is deposited on the si-
des of the oven during cooking. The next time the oven is used this fat could cause unpleasant
odours and might even jeopardise the success of the cooking. Use hot water and detergent to
clean; rinse out thoroughly. To make this chore unnecessary all models can be lined with ca-
talytic self-cleaning panels: these are supplied as an optional extra (see the section SELF-
CLEANING OVEN WITH CATALYTIC LINING).
Use detergents and abrasive metal pads like «brillo pads» for the stainless steel grills.
The glass surfaces as the top, oven door and warming compartment door must be cleaned
when they are cold. Damage that occurs to them because this rule was not adhered to are not
covered by the guarantee.
To replace the interior light: switch off the mains power supply and unscrew bulb. Replace with
an identical bulb that can withstand very high temperatures.

Self-cleaning oven with catalytic
Special self-cleaning panels covered in a micro-porous coating are available as optional extras
for all models. If they are fitted, the oven no longer needs to be cleaned by hand.
The fat that is splattered onto the sides of the oven during roasting is eliminated by the micro-
porous coating which breaks the fat down by catalysis and transforms it into gas.
Excessive splattering may nevertheless block the pores and therefore hinder self-cleaning.
The self-cleaning capacity may be restored by switching on the empty oven to maximum for
about 10-20 minutes.
Do not use abrasive products, metal cleaning wads, sharp objects, rough cloths, or chemical
products and detergents that may permanently damage the catalytic lining.
It is a good idea to use deep roasting trays to roast fatty foods such as joints of meat etc. and
to put a tray underneath the grill to catch surplus fat.
These simple precautions will ensure the correct temperature and ideal conditions for catalytic
cleaning to take place.
If the walls of the oven are so thickly coated in grease that the catalytic lining is no longer ef-
fective remove surplus grease with a soft cloth or sponge soaked in hot water.
The lining must be porous for self-cleaning to be effective.
N.B.: All catalytic linings currently on the market have a working life of about 300 hours. They
should therefore be replaced after about 300 hours.
Service centre
Before calling the Service Centre
If the oven is not working, we recommend that:
— you check that the oven is properly plugged into the power supply.
If the cause of the fault cannot be detected:
disconnect the oven from the mains, do not touch the oven and call the after sales service.
Before calling the Service Centre remember to make a note of the serial number on the
serial number specifications plate (see fig. 4, pag. 11).
The oven is supplied with a guarantee certificate that ensures that it will be repaired free of char-
ge at the Service Centre.
