Accessories
Not all accessories are available on some
models.
The accessories intended to come into
contact with food are made of materials that
comply with the provisions of current
legislation.
Original supplied and optional accessories
can be requested to Authorised Assistance
Centres. Use only original accessories
supplied by the manufacturer.
It is recommended to mount the pull-out
slides on the first shelf of the frames. In this
way, it is possible to optimise the space

Lowered pan stand
Used for supporting containers with food during
cooking.
Optional accessories (can be
purchased separately)
Chef plate
Good for browning foods evenly.
Microwaves
The appliance is equipped with a microwave
generator called a magnetron. The microwaves
generated are evenly emitted into the oven
cavity in order to reach the food and heat it.
Heating takes place through friction between
the molecules contained in the food (mainly
water molecules), with the consequent
generation of heat.
The heat generated directly inside the food
allows it to be defrosted, re-heated or cooked
in a shorter time compared to traditional
cooking.
The use of suitable containers for microwave
cooking leads to the microwaves reaching the
food in a uniform manner.

Cooking advice
General advice
It is not possible to shorten cooking times by
increasing the temperature (the food could
be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
Turn the food to brown both sides.
Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it needs
another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill
Meat can be grilled even when it is put into
the cold oven or into the preheated oven if
you wish to change the effect of the
cooking.
We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
With the Grill function, we recommend that
you set the temperature to the maximum
value to optimise cooking.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb
the heat better.
The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency of
the dough.
To check whether the dessert is cooked right
through: At the end of the cooking time, put
a toothpick into the highest point of the
dessert. If the dough does not stick to the
toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
If the dessert collapses when it comes out of
the oven, on the next occasion reduce the
set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a
longer cooking time if necessary.
Advice for defrosting and proving
Place frozen foods without their packaging
in a lidless container on the first shelf of the
oven.
Avoid overlapping the food.
To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the
second level and a tray on the first level. In
this way, the liquid from the defrosting food
drains away from the food.
The most delicate parts can be covered with
aluminium foil.
For successful proving, a container of water
should be placed in the bottom of the oven.
To save energy
Stop cooking a few minutes before the time
normally used. Cooking will continue for the
remaining minutes with the heat which has
accumulated inside the oven.
Reduce any opening of the door to a
minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all
times.
