FREASY COOK

All the heating elements and the fan come on,
guaranteeing the distribution of heat consistently
and uniformly throughout the oven. Pre-heating is
not necessary for this cooking mode. This mode is
especially recommended for cookingpre-packed
food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results
are obtained if you use one cooking rack only.

ECO CONVECTION BAKE

For cooking roasts and stuffed roasting joints
on a single shelf. Food is prevented from drying out
excessively by gentle, intermittent air circulation.
When this ECO function is in use, the light will
remain switched off during cooking but can be
switched on again by pressing

.

temperature and time for baking a wide range of
recipes including meat, fish, pasta, sweets and
vegetables. Activate the function when the oven is
cold.

BOTTOM HEATING

the dishes. It is advisable to place the food on the
1st/2nd level. The function can also be used for slow

case, use the 3rd level. The oven does not have to be
preheated.
