The Cooking Modes:

CONVECTION 

Position the temperature selector “

” between 

50

°C and 

250

°C.

The top and bottom heating elements are used. The heat is distributed evenly 

from the top to the bottom. The convection oven is best for preparing meat-

based dishes featuring beef or veal which require slow cook and basting. It is 

the best cooking mode for dry pastries and fruit in general. When cooking in 

convection mode, only use one baking tray or shelf at a time, otherwise the 

heat distribution will be uneven. Select from among the various shelf positions 

based on whether the dish needs more or less heat from the top.

BOTTOM HEATING ELEMENT 

Position the temperature control “

”: between 

50

°C and 

250

°C.

By turning the function selector to this position, the bottom heating element 

comes on. This is recommended for finishing off the cooking of food (in baking 

trays) which is well cooked on the surface but still soft inside.

MINIGRILL HEATING ELEMENT 
Important:

 do not set the temperature selector ‘

’ over 

200

°C.

By turning the function selector to this position, the upper heating element 

comes on. This is recommended for finishing off the cooking of food (in baking 

trays) which is already well cooked inside but needs browning.

GRILL 
Important:

 do not set the temperature selector ‘

’ over 

200

°C.

Food is cooked in the grill by the downward thermal rays produced by an 

incandescent electric cooking element. 

The extremely high and direct 

temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of 

meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The 

grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high surface 

temperature: such as beef steaks, veal, fillet steaks, hamburgers etc...

Important

: when grilling, the oven door must be kept shut.

FANNED GRILL 

 

Important:

 do not set the temperature selector ‘

’ over 

175

°C.

The heating element of the grill is activated, as well as the fan. This combination 

of features increases the effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating 

elements through forced air circulation throughout the oven. This helps to 

prevent foods from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate 

into the food.

Important: when grilling, the oven door must be kept shut.

FAN ASSISTED MODE 

 

Position the temperature control “

”: between 

50

°C and 

250

°C.

Both the heating elements and the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains 

constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food 

uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various 

dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are 

the same. A maximum of 2 shelves can be used at the same time, following 

the instructions in the section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Shelf”. 

This fan assisted mode is particularly recommended for dishes requiring a 

gratin finish or for those requiring considerably prolonged cooking times, 

such as for example: lasagne, pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, 

etc…  Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use 

lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, 

meat which is more tender and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast. 

This mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with 

the addition of a limited amount of condiment, thus maintaining  their flavour 

and appearance.

BAKING 

Position the temperature control “

”: between 

50

°C and 

250

°C.

The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing delicate heat 

distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and 

cooking delicate foods- especially cakes that need to rise. Cooking is also 

possible on both shelves. The oven heats up very quickly, so the food to be 

cooked may be put in the oven as it is switched on.

FAST DEFROSTING 

This function uses no heating elements, just the fan.

Oven light

By turning the function selector to 

 the interior light is switched on and 

allows you to observe the food in the oven without having to open the door. 
The oven light will come on automatically when the function selector ‘

’ is 

turned to any of the cooking modes.
