Cooking modes

! A temperature value between 60°C and MAX can

be set for all cooking modes except the following:

• GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)

• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).

DEFROST mode

The fan at the bottom of the oven circulates room-

temperature air around the food. This mode is

suitable for defrosting any type of food, especially

delicate items that should not be heated, for

example: ice-cream cakes or cakes made with

custard, cream or fruit. The defrosting time will be

approximately halved. When defrosting meat, fish or

bread, the process may be accelerated by selecting

the “multilevel” mode and setting a temperature

between 80°C and 100°C.

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come

on. When using this traditional cooking mode, it is

best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one

rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly.

BAKING mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched

on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a

delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire

oven. This mode is ideal for baking temperature

sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise)

and for the preparation of “bitesize pastries” on 3

shelves simultaneously.

FAST COOKING mode

The heating elements and the fan are activated,

guaranteeing the distribution of heat consistently and

uniformly throughout the oven.

Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode.

This mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-

packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best

results are achieved using one cooking rack only.

MULTILEVEL mode

All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular)

switch on and the fan begins to operate. Since the

heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air

cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A

maximum of two racks may be used at the same

time.

PIZZA OVEN mode

The circular heating elements and the elements at

the bottom of the oven are switched on and the fan

is activated. This combination heats the oven rapidly

by producing a considerable amount of heat,

particularly from the element at the bottom. If you

use more than one rack at a time, switch the position

of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

GRILL mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie (where

present) come on. The high and direct temperature

of the grill is recommended for food which requires a

high surface temperature. Always cook in this mode

with the oven door closed.

FAN GRILLING mode

The top heating element as well as the fan and the

rotisserie (where present) come on. This combination

of features increases the effectiveness of the

unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the

heating elements through forced circulation of the air

throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from

burning on the surface and allows the heat to

penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this

mode with the oven door closed.

The Rotisserie (only available on certain models)

To operate the rotisserie

(see diagram) proceed as

follows:

1. Place the dripping

pan in position 1.

2. Place the rotisserie

support in position 3

and insert the spit in

the hole provided on

the back panel of the

oven.

3. Start the rotisserie

using the knob to select MODE

or .

! When

mode is on, the rotisserie will stop if the

door is opened.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 or 5 during fan-

assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn

temperature sensitive foods.

! When using the GRILL and GRATIN modes, place

the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking

residues (sauces and/or fats).

MULTILEVEL

• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which

requires more heat on the rack in position 2.

• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack

on top.
