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).

 

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.

 

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.

 

GRAtIN 

mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present) are activated 

and the fan begins to operate.  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. 

 

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.

practical cooking advice

!

 Do not place racks in position 1 or 5 during fan-assisted cooking. Excessive 

direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

!

 In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 

1 to collect cooking residues (sauce and/or grease).

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.

GRILL

•  Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Make sure the food is in the centre of the 

rack.

•  We recommend that the power level is set to maximum. The top heating 

element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate 

constantly.

PIZZA OVEN MODE

•  Use a lightweight aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided.

  For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as this extends the total 

cooking duration and prevents the crust from forming.

•  If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella 

cheese to the top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.
