Cooking modes

GB

Cooking modes

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking

modes between 60°C and Max, except for

 BARBECUE (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, bottom and circular), 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.

BARBECUE mode

than one rack simultaneously, switch the position of

the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

BAKING mode

The rear heating element and the fan come on,

guaranteeing the distribution of heat delicately and

uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for

baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods such

as cakes that need to rise and to prepare certain

tartlets on 3 shelves simultaneously.

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 BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes,

place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking

residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTI-COOKING

 Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires

more heat on 2.

The top heating element comes on.

The high and direct temperature of the grill is

recommended for food that requires high surface

temperature. 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.

PIZZA mode

The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as

the fan, will come on. This combination heats the oven

rapidly by producing a considerable amount of heat,

particularly from the bottom element. If you use more

 Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack

on top.

BARBECUE

 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 MODE

 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.
