Grill - Turnspit
To use the turnspit, proceed as follows:
1. Insert the spit frame on the second gui-
de from the bottom, as shown in the figu-
re.
2. Insert the first fork in the spit, skewer the
food to be cooked and secure it by
inserting the second fork; fix the two forks
by tightening the special screws.
3. Insert the tip of the spit in the hole of the
turnspit motor, clearly visible in the
middle of the rear wall of the oven.
4. Place the front part of the spit on the spit
frame.
5. Unscrew the grip.
6. Turn the “Light-Grill & Fan” knob to the
symbol
and the thermostat knob to
“250”
It is advisable to insert the dripping pan on
the first guide from the bottom, after pouring
about two cups of water in it.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-
baking pastry. It may also be used to finish off
quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is cooked
through.
The thermostat control light will remain on
until the correct temperature is reached. It
will then cycle on and off to show the
temperature is being maintained.
Conventional Cooking
- The middle shelf position allows for the best
heat distribution. To increase base browning
simply lower the shelf position. To increase
top browning, raise the shelf position.
- The material and finish of the baking trays
and dishes used will affect base browning.
Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils
increase base browning, while oven
glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel
trays reflect the heat away and give less base
browning.
- Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to
ensure even browning.
- Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the base of the oven
and make cleaning easier.
- Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly on the oven base as it becomes very
hot and damage will occur.When using this
setting, heat comes from both the top and bottom
elements. This allows you to cook on a single
level and is particularly suitable for dishes
which require extra base browning such as
quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra
top browning also cook well in the conventional
oven.
