FUNCTIONS

CONVENTIONAL

For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.

MULTILEVEL

XL 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 Baking tray to collect the cooking juices: position the pan on any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200ml of drinking water.

GRATIN

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 FORCED AIR

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

HYDROCLEANING

The action of the steam released during this

special low-temperature cleaning cycle allows dirt and food residues to be removed with ease. Pour 200 ml of drinking water on the bottom of the oven and only activate the function when the oven is cold.
