Using the grill
The grill pan consists of a wire trivet and enamel tray. Place food on the wire trivet. A lower shelf position can be used to slow
cooking down, or the temperature can be reduced. A detachable grill pan handle is supplied for removing the hot tray.
Both the Fan Assisted Grill and Conventional Grill functions are designed to be used with the oven door closed. This ensures
efficient preheating and even cooking.
When grilling, always pre-heat the grill element for 5 minutes before introducing food (200°C is recommended for preheating). It
is recommended that the grill pan is always removed from the oven when not in use, as air flow around the oven can be
impaired. The grill should be used with the oven door closed. Use the Fan Assisted Grill function for thicker pieces of meat and
when cooking high water content foods to reduce condensation.
Always use oven gloves when handling the grill pan and turning food. Do not line the grill pan with aluminium foil, this can cause
damage to the enamel coating and the grill elements.
At the end of
cooking remove the grill pan for cleaning. If high fat content foods have been prepared, leave the grill turned on at
a maximum temperature for 5 minutes to clean the grill element.
USING THE NATURAL CONVENTIONAL ELECTRIC OVEN
When using the oven for the first time it should be operated for a maximum of 30 minutes at a temperature of about 250° to
eliminate any odours generated by the internal insulation. During normal oven use, select the desired cooking temperature
using the thermostat knob and wait until the orange light turns off before putting in any food. The oven is equipped with 5 guides
at different heights (fig.33) which can be used to insert shelves or the tray. To keep the oven as clean as possible it is
recommended to cook meat on the tray or on the shelf that has been inserted inside the tray. Table No. 8 below lists the
cooking times and the position of the tray for different types of foods. Personal experience will help to determine any variations
in the values reported in the table. In any case, it is recommended to follow the instructions of the specific recipe being used.
USING THE VENTILATED ELECTRIC OVEN
When using the oven for the first time it should be operated for a maximum of 30 minutes at a temperature of about 250° to
eliminate any odours generated by the internal insulation.
Before cooking, allow the oven to reach the desired temperature setting waiting for the orange light to turn off. This type of oven
is equipped with a circular element around which a fan has been installed that creates forced-air circulation in the horizontal
direction. Thanks to this type of operation, the ventilated oven can be used for different types of cooking at the same time,
without changing the taste of each food. Only some models are equipped with a removable metallic filter applied to the rear
screen which collects the fat while a roast is cooking. Therefore, it is recommended to remove this fat periodically, washing the
screen with soapy water and rinsing thoroughly. To remove the metallic filter just apply slight pressure toward the top on the tab
indicated by the arrow. Hot-air circulation guarantees a uniform distribution of heat. Pre-heating the oven is not necessary, but
for very delicate pastries, it is recommended to heat the oven before inserting the trays.
The ventilated conventional system partially changes the various notions about traditional cooking. Meat no longer needs to be
turned while it is cooking and the rotisserie is no longer needed to cook a roast on the spit. Just put the meat directly on the
shelf.
USING THE GAS GRILL (SINGLE CONTROL)
The gas grill can be combined only with the gas oven. It is controlled with the same gas oven knob (Fig.30), but turning it
clockwise instead of counterclockwise (see the gas oven use instructions), matching the symbol with the indicator. The grill
burner always operates at maximum and therefore there is no minimum position. In addition, it is equipped with a safety device
to prevent the flame from going out. The gas grill can also be ignited in different ways:
- Manual lighting: Just completely open the oven door, turn the knob so that the relative symbol matches the indicator, while
pressing the knob, and, at the same time, put a lit match next to the burner. Make sure that the burner is completely lit and after
about 10 seconds release the knob. Make sure that the burner remains on, otherwise repeat the operation.
- Electric ignition: In this case, completely open the oven door, press and turn the knob so that the relative symbol matches the
indicator, then press the thermostat knob (models with ignition trough knob). Wait about 10 seconds after the burner has been
completely lit and then release the knob. Make sure that the burner remains on, otherwise repeat the operation. As for cookers
without ignition trough knob, press the thermostat knob and the key with the spark symbol, wait about 10 seconds after the
burner has been completely lit and then release the knob. Make sure that the burner remains on, otherwise repeat the
operation.
WARNING: As with the oven, the grill must be lit with the door completely open.
The gas grill can be used to grill foods on the oven shelf or using the rotisserie.
Grilling on the shelf: In this case, the shelf supplied is placed on level 1 or 2 and the foods to be grilled are placed on top,
while the tray is inserted on the lower levels to collect the cooking juices.
Then light the grill burner according to the instructions described above.
IMPORTANT: grill foods on the shelf always with the door close.
WARNING: the accessible parts may become very hot while grilling. Keep children away from the appliance while
cooking.
Grilling with the rotisserie: This is used to grill with the rotating skewer. Therefore, insert the skewer holder on the side
shelves at level 3. Insert the food on the skewer and insert everything into the oven, inserting the point of the skewer into the
spindle that projects out from the left side of the oven and resting the front of the skewer into the skewer holder support (fig.38).
Afther, insert the tray into one of the lower guides, then light the grill burner according to the instructions described above and
press the button that starts the rotisserie
IMPORTANT: grill foods with the rotisserie always with the door close.
WARNING: the accessible parts may become very hot while grilling. Keep children away from the appliance while
cooking.
