FUNCTIONS

CONVENTIONAL*

For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.

FORCED AIR

For cooking different foods that require the
same cooking temperature on several shelves
(maximum three) at the same time. This function
can be used to cook different foods without odours
being transferred from one food to another.

MAXI COOKING

For cooking large joints of meat (above 2.5
kg). We recommend turning the meat over during
cooking to ensure that both sides brown evenly. We
also recommend basting the joint every so often to
prevent it from drying out excessively.

PIZZA

For baking different types and sizes of pizza
and bread. It is a good idea to swap the position of
the baking trays halfway through cooking.

GRILL

For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages,
cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread.
When grilling meat, we recommend using a dripping
pan to collect the cooking juices: position the pan on
any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml
of drinking water.

2. HEAT THE OVEN

A new oven may release odours that have been left
behind during manufacturing: This is completely
normal.
Before starting to cook food, we therefore
recommend heating the oven with it empty in order
to remove any possible odours.

Remove any protective cardboard or transparent film
from the oven and remove any accessories from inside
it.

Heat the oven to 250 °C for about one hour, preferably
using the “Maxicooking” function. The oven must be
empty during this time.
Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.
