[. . . ] NEVER ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE YOURSELF. AFTER EACH USE OF THE OVEN, ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE CONTROL KNOBS ARE TURNED TO 0 (OFF). 22 Introduction NEVER PLACE FLAMMABLE OBJECTS IN THE OVEN: IF IT SHOULD ACCIDENTALLY BE SWITCHED ON, THIS MIGHT CAUSE A FIRE. THE APPLIANCE BECOMES VERY HOT DURING USE. OVEN GLOVES SHOULD ALWAYS BE WORN. THE NAMEPLATE WITH THE TECHNICAL DATA, SERIAL NUMBER AND MARK IS IN A VISIBLE POSITION ON THE BACK OF THE OVEN. [. . . ] The adjuster screw travel is 10 mm. 2. 4 Connection to the water supply Connect the water inlet connection on the rear to a water supply outlet having ¾ gas threaded connection, taking care to screw tightly to the hose. If the water supply pipe is new or has been unused for a long time, before making the connection turn the water on and allow it to flow out to ensure that it is clear and free from impurities. Otherwise, the water inlet may become fouled, damaging the oven. The oven must be supplied with water at a pressure between min. 500 kPa. 2. 5 Steam vent pipes The rear of the oven is fitted with a pipe which vents the steam produced during cooking. This pipe must be left free of all obstructions. Take care not to crush it. 26 Instructions for the User 3.

USING THE OVEN 4. 1 Precautions and General Advice When the oven is used for the first time, it should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process. If you have to carry out any procedures on foods, leave the door open for as short a time as possible to ensure the temperature inside the oven does not drop far enough to impair cooking results. To avoid unpleasant contact with any steam inside the oven, open the door in two stages: hold it half-open (about 5 cm) for 4-5 seconds, then open it completely. 4. 2 Inside lights The inside lights are turned on by turning the thermostat knob. 4. 3 Setting the time At first use, or after a power supply failure, the current time has to be set. Press START to display the parameters just set. Press START again to run the program just edited. 4. 7 Humidified fan-mode cooking Use the knob to select one of the preset programs (P1 ­ P14). The display shows the parameters of the selected program. Press START to confirm the start of the program. The program starts, performing the preheating stage; the display shows "PrEh". When the preheating is complete, a beep sounds to indicate that cooking can start, and the message "PrEh" flashes on the display. Keep START pressed for a few seconds to start cooking; another BEEP sounds to signal the switch from preheating to cooking. (If START is not pressed after the beep, the temperature is held constant for about 10 minutes, after which it will start to drop for a period up to a maximum time of 20 minutes, counted from when the beep sounded. ­ although this is not recommended in terms of cooking quality, the program can be started even before the preheating temperature is reached by keeping START pressed for a few seconds. During cooking, the display shows the time left until the end of the cooking process, the temperature set, the number of humidification cycles set (if any) and the number of the program being used, in alternation. While cooking is in progress only, water can be delivered to the cooking chamber by operating the intake valve in manual mode. [. . . ] Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers; they will damage surfaces. Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. 34 Instructions for the User 5. 2 Cleaning the inside of the oven To keep the oven in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly at the end of each day, after allowing it to cool.
