LAMP:
Turns on the oven light.
FAN COOKING:
We recommend you use this method for poultry, pastries, fish and vegetables. Heat
penetrates into the food better and both the cooking and preheating times are reduced. You can cook
different foods at the same time with or without the same preparation in one or more positions. This
cooking method gives even heat distribution and the smells are not mixed.
Allow about ten minutes extra when cooking foods at the same time.
GRILL
:
use the grill with the door closed.
The top heating element is used alone and you can adjust the temperature. Five minutes preheating is
required to get the elements red-hot. Success is guaranteed for grills, kebabs and gratin dishes. White
meats should be put at a distance from the grill; the cooking time is longer, but the meat will be tastier.
You can put red meats and fish fillets on the shelf with the drip tray underneath. The oven has two grill
positions:
Grill: 2140 W
Barbecue: 3340 W
Grill function MUST be performed at 200°C maximum
CONVENTIONAL COOKING:
Both top and bottom heating elements are used. Preheat the oven for about
ten minutes. This method is ideal for all traditional roasting and baking. For seizing red meats, roast beef,
leg of lamb, game, bread, foil wrapped food (papillotes), flaky pastry. Place the food and its dish on a shelf
in mid position.

FAN + LOWER ELEMENT:
circulating the air inside the oven. This method is ideal for juicy fruit flans, tarts,
quiches and pâté. It prevents food from drying and encourages rising in cakes, bread dough and other
bottom-cooked food. Place the shelf in the bottom position.
Funzione pizza:
This function with hot air circulated in the oven ensure perfect reslt for dishes such as
pizza or focaccia.
DEFROST:
When the dial is set to this position. The fan circulates air at room temperature around the
frozen food so that it defrosts in a few minutes without the protein content of the food being changed
or altered.
FAN ASSISTED GRILL :
use the turbo-grill with the door closed.
The top heating element is used with the fan circulating the air inside the oven. Preheating is
necessary for red meats but not for white meats. Ideal for cooking thick food items, whole
pieces such as roast pork, poultry, etc. Place the food to be grilled directly on the shelf centrally,
at the middle level. Slide the drip tray under the shelf to collect the juices. Make sure that the
food is not too close to the grill. Turn the food over halfway through cooking.
The
function allows you to cook in a healthier way, by reducing the amount of fat or oil
"COOK LIGHT"
required. Thanks to the use of the grill and fan combined with a pulsating cycle of air, it will retain the
moisture content of the food, grilling the surface and using a shorter cooking time, without
compromising on taste.
It is particularly suitable for cooking meat, roasted vegetables and omelettes. The cycle of pulsed air
keeps the humidity inside the oven and the moisture content of the food, preserving the nutritional
values and ensuring a rapid uniform cooking process.
