A B 36 Instructions for the user 4. USE OF THE OVEN 4. 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 off any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad taste. During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on it as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven. 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. 4. 2 Cooling system (certain models only) The oven is equipped with a cooling system which automatically comes on when the oven is turned on. Fan operation causes a normal flow of air which exits at the bottom part of the oven front which may continue for a brief period of time even after the oven has been turned off. 4. 3 Oven light To turn on the oven light in models with static oven, rotate the temperature knob clockwise to the first setting aligned with the lamp symbol ( ). The light will remain on throughout the entire cooking operation. In the multifunction models, the inside oven light may be turned on by simultaneously rotating the function selector knob and the timer knob. [. . . ] The oven should be operated at the maximum temperature for about 15/20 minutes after using specific products, to eliminate the residues deposited inside the oven. For easier cleaning, the door can be removed (see P. 8. 2) 7. 3 Self-cleaning liners (only on some models) The oven is equipped with continuous self-cleaning enamelled liners. These liners make the oven easier to clean and ensure its efficiency over time. [. . . ]
