Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, the model is equipped with a cooling fan, which comes on automatically
when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the door and the control
panel.
Note:
When cooking is finished, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently – it will automatically turn off once cool.
Practical cooking advise
The oven has a wide range of settings allowing you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. The following
directions are only a guideline which may vary according to personal preferences.
Pre-heating
If the oven needs to be pre-heated, conventional or fan heat should be selected. These are the most efficient modes, which
will reach the desired temperature as quickly as possible using the least amount of energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the required cooking function should be selected.
Multi shelf cooking
If you want to use several shelves during cooking, select the fan heat function as this is the only function that allows
multi-level cooking
When cooking delicate foods on more than one shelf, use the fan heat function. This mode allows you to cook on 3 shelves
at the same time. Refer to the ‘cooking guide’ table.
Using the grill
There are 2 different grilling functions, both require the oven door to be closed.
- Place the food on the centre of the grill pan, insert and fit the grill pan on either the 3rd or 4th shelf from the bottom.
Note:
Only the central part of the top heating element operates for grilling.
When using the grill function, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not mean
you cannot use lower temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.
- Use the turbo grill function with the oven door closed. This function is very useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the
distribution of heat by the fan makes it possible not only to brown the surface, but also to cook the bottom of the food. It
can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding a crisp top to a dish.
- When using the turbo grill function place the food on the 2nd or 3rd oven shelf from the bottom, then place a dripping-
pan on the first rack to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the oven base.
- We recommend you set the thermostat to 200°C, as it is the most efficient temperature for turbo grill function.
However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the desired
temperature.
Important:
For best results and to save energy, always use the turbo grill with the oven door closed.
