ideally lined with foil, underneath the shelf to catch the
fat etc. which runs off. Pork chops, steaks and fish
should be grilled high up in the oven, while meats such
as thick spare ribs are better lower down.
Set the function control to and the temperature
control to the temperature require (250ºC maximum).
Preheat the grill for 3 to 5 minutes. Keep an eye on the
food, and turn it at least once. Grilling for too long
makes food dry, dull, and possibly burnt as well. The
oven door should be closed when grilling.
Browning (swift start)
Excellent for browning au gratin dishes, toasted sand-
wiches, etc. You can also use this function to heat the
oven quickly to the set temperature. When the oven
has reached that temperature, you can then select
whichever function is required. It takes about 8 min-
utes to reach 200ºC. However, do not use this method
of rapid heating when baking biscuits or meringues.
Cleaning and maintenance
The oven
The oven surfaces are of vitreous enamel. The outer
section, the door front, can easily be removed for
cleaning (see “The oven door” below).
IF THE OVEN IS VERY SOILED:
1 Use a spatula or similar implement to remove
spillages which have hardened.
2 Use a sponge to spread soft soap inside the
oven.
3 Close the door. Set the oven to (top/bottom
heat) and 100°C for about 10 minutes.
4 When the oven has cooled, wash the surfaces
with clean water. Rub gently with a soapimpreg-
nated steelwool pad on stubborn patches. Wipe
the surfaces dry.
The oven door
The oven door consists of two sections with heat-
reflecting glass for a lower surface temperature.
The outer section, the door front, can be removed
for cleaning.
Take care not to damage the panes of glass.
Small cracks at the edges can cause an entire
pane to crack after it has been heated a few
times.
