Remove and wash all the appliance accessories (if fitted) (see 4 Cleaning and maintenance).

This type of rapid defrosting is ideal as the taste and appearance of the de-frozen food, whether previously deep-frozen or frozen in the freezer, remain unaltered. Normal cooking Using the fan and the circular heating elements (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook different foods on several levels. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. 3. 3 Using the oven The oven is designed for a maximum load of 3. 5 kg. Switching the oven on To switch the oven on: 1.
