Using the grill
This multi-function oven offers you
2 different grilling modes only and exclusively with oven door shut.
Use the “grill” mode
, placing the food under the centre of the grill (situated on the 3rd or 4th rack from
the bottom) because only the central part of the top heating element is turned on.
Use the bottom rack (1st from the bottom), placing the dripping pan provided to collect any sauce and/or
grease and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom.
When using this mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not
mean you can not use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to desired temperature.
Setting “fan assisted grill”
, is extremely useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the distribution of heat makes
it possible not only to brown the surface, but also to cook the bottom part.
Moreover, it can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin
finish to pasta bakes, for example.
When using this mode, place the grid on the 2nd or 3rd oven rack from the bottom (see cooking table) then, to
prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and thus smoke from forming, place a
dripping pan on the 1
st
rack from the bottom.
Important: always use the grill with the oven door shut.
This will allow you both to obtain excellent results and to save on energy (approx 10%).
When using this mode, we advise you to set the thermostat to 200 , as it is the most efficient way to use the
grill, which is based on the use of infrared rays. However, this does not mean you can not use lower
temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.
Therefore the best results when using the grill modes are obtained by placing the grid on the lower
racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and
smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st oven rack from the bottom.
Baking cakes
When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Make sure you wait until the oven has been
preheated thoroughly ( the read light “E” will turn off). Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the
cake from dropping. In general:
Pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10 and reduce the cooking time
Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10
Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
