Modes
!
A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes
between 60°C and Max, except for
• 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.
With 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.
/
MULTI-COOKING
mode
All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as the fan,
will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout
the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. 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 comes on. 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 temperature on the surface:
such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers
etc...
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical
Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode with
the oven door closed.
/
GRATIN
mode
The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come on.
This combination of features increases the effectiveness of
the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements
through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven.
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface,
allowing 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.
The
Rotisserie
*
To operate the rotisserie (
see
diagram
) proceed as follows:
1. Place the dripping pan
in position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie
support in position 3 and
insert the spit in the hole
provided on the back panel
of the oven.
3. Start the rotisserie using
the knob to select MODE

Practical cooking advice
!
Do not place racks in position 1 and 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 (fat
and/or grease).
MULTILEVEL
• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more
heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on
top.
GRILL
• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the
centre of the rack.
• We recommend that you set the maximum power level.
The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat
and may not always be on.
PIZZA
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack
provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents
crust from forming by extending cooking time).
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding
the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway
through the cooking process.
