Oven cooking
Before introducing the food, preheat the
oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is
advisable to remove the tray from the
oven and introduce it together with the
food, when the oven has reached the
desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn off the
oven 5 minutes before the theoretical
time to recuperate the stored heat.
Simultaneous cooking of
different foods
The MULTI-FUNCTION oven set on
position
and
gives simultaneous
heterogeneous cooking of different foods.
Different foods such as fish, cake and
meat can be cooked together without
mixing the smells and flavours.
This is possible since the fats and vapours
are oxidized while passing through the
electrical element and therefore are not
deposited onto the foods.
The only precautions to follow are:
– The cooking temperatures of the
different foods must be as close to as
possible, with a maximum difference of
20° - 25 °C.
– The introduction of the different dishes
in the oven must be done at different
times in relation to the cooking times of
each one.
The time and energy saved with this type
of cooking is obvious.
Grilling and “au gratin”
Grilling may be done by selecting
grill+fan setting
with the function
selector knob, because the hot air com-
pletely envelops the food that is to be
cooked.
Set the thermostat knob between 50°C
and 200°C maximum and after having
preheated the oven, simply place the
food on the grid.
Close the door and let the oven oper-
ate until grilling is done.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the
end of the cooking time gives the golden
“au gratin” effect.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
It is recommended that you do not
grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
Use of the grill
Set the function selector knob to position
and the thermostat knob between
50°C and 225°C maximum.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5
minutes with the door closed.
Introduce the food to be cooked, posi-
tioning the grill pan as close to the grill
as possible.
Insert the drip pan under the rack to col-
lect the cooking juices.
Always grill with the oven door
closed.
Grilling with the oven door closed and
not for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
