Using the Oven
Shelf supports
The oven has four shelf levels. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in figure 2. Shelf levels 1, 2 and 4 are fitted with telescopic shelf supports, to allow en easier operation when inserting or removing the shelves. Pull the right and left hand telescopic shelf supports completely out, as shown in figure 3. Place the shelf or the grill pan on the telescopic shelf supports, then gently push them all inside the oven (Fig. 3). Do not attempt to close the oven door if the telescopic shelf supports are not completely inside the oven. This could damage the door enamel and glass. � Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven. � The temperatures inside the oven can reach 250°C. Always ensure that you are using oven proof baking trays, oven dishes, etc. � Do not place pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil directly on the base of the oven. This could cause a heat build-up which could affect the performance of the oven and damage the oven enamel. � Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil, since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire, if overheated. For the same reason, be careful when placing or removing food in the oven, not to let any fat or oil fall on the oven base. If this happens, carefully clean the oven to avoid unpleasant smells or smoke. Always cook with the oven door closed When food is heated, it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle does. When steam comes in contact of the oven door glass, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by fault of the oven. We recommend you to wipe away condensation after all cookings.

Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat
You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the dripping pan in the first position from the bottom (see Fig. 2) with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base. White meat, poultry and fish in general, need a medium temperature cooking (between 150 and 175 ° C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher tempera-
Hints and Tips on grilling
If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them. In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness. Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it. When using the Thermal Grill Function, select a maximum temperature of 200°C
