remove all packaging materials and then clean the oven with soapy
water and rinse carefully. Set the current time on the programmer
as per page 16. Heat on each of the below programmes at maximum
temperature for the specified time. A slightly unpleasant smell may be
produced, caused by grease remaining on the oven elements from
the production process.
