Practical Cooking Advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best
possible way. With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the
following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal
experience.
Cooking on more than one rack
Oven Light
1. Automatic Lights
The oven lights are automatic
and
will stay
on when any of the electrical heating elements in the oven
come on.
The lights will automatically turn off 10 minutes after the oven shuts-off.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, this 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 oven door and the control
panel.
Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently.
If you have to cook food using several racks, use the “Baking Mode”.
When cooking delicate food on
more than one rack, use the “Baking Mode”, which allows you to cook on three (3) racks at the same
time (the1st, 3rd, and 5th from the bottom).
When cooking other food on several racks, keep the
following suggestions in mind:
The oven is fitted with 5 rack positions. During fan assisted cooking, use two of the
three central racks; the lowest and highest racks receive the hot air directly and
therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these positions.
As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th rack positions from the bottom, placing the
foodstuffs that require greater heat on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example,
when cooking meat roasts together with other food, place the roast on the 2nd rack from
the bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.
When cooking foodstuffs that require differing times and temperatures, set a
temperature that is somewhere between the two temperatures required, place the more
delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom and take the food requiring less time out of
the oven first.
Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper rack.
