[. . . ] Incorrect installation may cause harm to persons, animals or may damage property. Fitting the appliance Use the appropriate cabinet to ensure that the appliance functions properly. • The panels adjacent to the oven must be made of heat-resistant material. • Cabinets with a veneer exterior must be assembled with glues which can withstand temperatures of up to 100°C. [. . . ] Select the desired temperature with the THERMOSTAT knob. See the Cooking advice table for cooking modes and the suggested cooking temperatures (see Cooking Modes).

Never put objects directly on the oven bottom to avoid damaging the enamel coating. Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, some models are fitted with a cooling fan that blows out air between the control panel and the oven door. Once the cooking has been completed, the cooling fan remains on until the oven has cooled down sufficiently. * Only on certain models 5 Cooking modes GB Cooking modes !A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for • GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level); • GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C). TRADITIONAL OVEN mode Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly. MULTI-COOKING mode All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time. TOP OVEN mode The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking. GRILL mode The top heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc. . . Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” paragraph. [. . . ] • The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery (even in your dishwasher).
