centre on a single shelf.
CONVECTION BAKE
For cooking meat or baking cakes with liquid
centre on a single shelf.
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.
GRILL
For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages,
cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread.
When grilling meat, we recommend using a drip tray
to collect the cooking juices: Position the pan on any
of the levels below the wire shelf and add 500 ml of
drinking water.
TURBO GRILL
For roasting large joints of meat (legs, roast
beef, chicken). We recommend using a drip tray to
collect the cooking juices: Position the pan on any
of the levels below the wire shelf and add 500 ml of
drinking water. The turnspit (if provided) can be used
with this function.
MAXI COOKING
For cooking large joints of meat (above 2.5
kg). Use the 1st or 2nd shelves, depending on the
size of the joint. The oven does not have to be
preheated. We suggest turning the meat during
cooking to obtain uniform browning on both sides.
It is advisable to baste the meat every now and again
so that it does not become too dry.
FAST PREHEATING
For preheating the oven quickly.
PYROL
an extra-high temperature cycle (approx. 500°). Two
self-cleaning cycles are available: a complete cycle
and a quick cycle (ECO). It is advisable to use the
complete cycle only in case of a very dirty oven, and
the shorter cycle if the function is used at regular
intervals.
For eliminating cooking residues with

energy. They are reactivated temporarily whenever any of
the buttons are pressed.

recommend searing roasting joints in a pan first

juices. Cooking times range from two hours for
fish weighing 300 g to four or five hours for fish
weighing 3 kg, and from four hours for joints of meat
weighing 1 kg to six or seven hours for joints of meat
weighing 3 kg. For meat, times range from 4 hours
for 1 kg joints to 6-7 hours for 3 kg joints.

4. 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 200 °C for around one hour, ideally
using a function with air circulation (e.g. “Forced Air”
or “Convection Bake”).
Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.
Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the
appliance for the rst time.
