CONVENTIONAL
For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf

or cooking a pasta bake, however, use the 2nd
level. Preheat the oven before placing food
inside.
CONVECTION BAKE
For cooking on a maximum of two shelves
at the same time. Use the 2nd shelf to cook
on one shelf only. To cook on two shelves, we
recommend using the 2nd and 4th shelves. It is
a good idea to swap the position of the baking
trays halfway through cooking. Preheat the oven
before placing food inside.

water. Preheat the oven for 3-5 minutes. The oven
door must remain closed during cooking.
TURBO GRILL

beef, chicken). Place food on the 2nd shelf. We

must remain closed during cooking.
