otherwise they should be added during the last
half-hour. You can check the degree of cooking by
squashing the meat with a spoon: if the meat does not
yield, it is correctly cooked. For roast beef and fi l-
let, which must remain pink inside, cooking time
must be very brief. Meats may be placed on a plate
suitable for oven cooking or directly on the grill,
under which you should place a tray to collect the
gravy. When cooking has fi nished, we advise you to
wait for 15 minutes before cutting the meat so that
the gravy does not come out. Before being served,
the dishes may be kept hot in the oven at minimum
temperature.
10. ROUTINE CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Cut power to the appliance before every operation
General cleaning
Clean the oven when it is cold. Wash enamelled
parts with lukewarm water and soap, do not use
abrasive products, steel wool, or acids, which
could ruin them. To clean the steel parts, do not
use products containing chlorine (sodium hy-
pochlorite, hydrochloric acid, etc) even if diluted.
Use specifi c off-the-shelf products or a little hot
vinegar. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with
a soft cloth. Clean the glass door of the oven with
hot water only, and do not use rough cloths. Do not
allow foods (especially acid foods such as salt, vin-
egar, lemon, etc) to stagnate on the stainless steel
parts, because they could deteriorate. Do not wash
the appliance with direct jets of water, because if
water enters, this could limit the appliance's safety.
Do not use corrosive substances (e.g. hydrochloric
acid) to clean the oven's support bench.
Cleaning the oven
It is good practice to clean the oven interior at the
end of every day of duty. In this way it will be easier
to remove cooking residues, preventing them from
burning when the oven is next used. Clean it accu-
rately with hot water and soap or with the appropri-
ate off-theshelf products.
Grilling
Almost all meats may be grilled, with the exception
of some lean game meats and meat loaves. Apply
a slittle oil on the meat or fi sh to be cooked and
always place them on the grill - put the grill in the
guides nearest or furthest from the grill heating
element in proportion to the meat, in order to avoid
burning the surface and cooking the inside insuffi -
ciently. It is useful to place a tray under the grill to
collect drops of gravy and fat.
Cleaning the oven door
To clean the oven door thoroughly, proceed as fol-
lows:
• fully open the door;
• insert the equipped plugs in the "A" holes on the
hinges (Fig. 4);
• lift the door gently and withdraw it (Fig. 5);
• put back the door in the initial position by oper-
ating inverserly.
Replacing oven lamp
Electrically switch off the appliance; unscrew the
protective glass cap (Fig. 6); unscrew the lamp and
replace it with another lamp suitable for high tem-
peratures (300°C), with the following characteris-
tics:
• Voltage 230/240 V
• Power 15 W
• Fitting E 14
Refi t the glass cap and power up the appliance.
Put back the lamp cover with the gaskets and turn
on the electricity.
