How to use your appliance
This oven combines the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of the more modern fan
assisted models. It is a highly versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily and safely between 9
different cooking modes. Use knobs (B) and (E) on the control panel to pick one of the cooking modes
available and to set the desired temperature. We recommend you consult the suggested cooking table on
page 23 for the best use of your new oven.
Cooling fan
In order to cool down the door, control panel and sides of the appliance, this Franke oven is fitted with a
cooling fan which turns 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. Special attention has been paid to ensure the
speed of the air flow does not disturb you while cooking and to make sure it is as silent as possible.
To protect the surrounding furniture cabinets, when cooking is complete, the fan stays on until the oven has
cooled down sufficiently.
The oven light
This symbol is turned on when the light inside the oven is turned on, which has no effect whatsoever on the
oven heating.
It is especially useful for cleaning the oven when the same is turned off as it illuminates the appliance
interior to aid you in the cleaning task.
Cooking modes
Defrosting
Set the knob to the symbol ( ) to enable the defrosting mode.
In this mode, the air circulated by the motor action throughout the interior of the oven affects the food and
speeds up the natural thawing process.
Convection mode
The thermostat knob (E) should be set to between 50°C and Max (260°C).
The oven is heated both from above (top heating element) and from below (bottom heating element). This is
the traditional cooking mode that allows food to be cooked evenly, using one rack height only.
Fan assisted mode
The thermostat knob (E) should be set to between 50°C and Max (260°C).
The top and bottom heating elements are turned on, as well as the fan inside the oven. Compared with the
previous cooking mode (convection), an even more even distribution of heat is obtained thanks to the fan,
and 2 different rack heights can be used at the same time.
Ventilated mode
The thermostat knob (E) should be set to between 50°C and Max (260°C).
The circular heating element and the fan are turned on. The constant even heat 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.
This is the most delicate of the ventilated modes
available in this Franke oven, and is ideal for baking cakes and pastries in general, as it allows you to
cook on three different rack heights simultaneously.
Multi power ventilated mode
The thermostat knob (E) should be set to between 50°C and Max (260°C).
The circular heating element is turned on, accompanied by the partial action of the top and bottom heating
elements and the fan. Compared with the previous cooking mode, it is more powerful and quicker to reach
the desired temperature; this, together with the uniform distribution of the heat, makes it ideal for cooking
meat roasts and fish as well as pasta bakes, using up to 3 different rack heights.
