The Controls

Grill

Important: do not set the temperature control "C" to over 175°C. During grilling, keep the oven door closed.

Food is cooked in the grill by the downward thermal rays produced by an incandescent electric heating element. The high, direct grill temperature immediately browns meat, thus stopping juice dispersion and keeping meat more tender. The grill is particularly recommended for cooking dishes requiring a high surface temperature: beef and veal steaks, entrecote, fillet steaks, hamburgers etc...

Fanned Grill

Important: do not set the temperature control "C" to over 175°C. During grilling, keep the oven door closed.

The heating element of the grill is activated, as well as the fan. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced air circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevents foods from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food.

"Gentle pastry oven"

Set the temperature control (C) between 50°C and 250°C. The lower heating element and the fan come on.

This setting is ideal when cooking delicate foods, especially pastries that need to raise, because the heat rising from the bottom facilitates leavening. Please note that with this feature it takes a rather long time to reach higher temperatures. Therefore, if high temperatures are needed, we recommend that you use the "Conventional" setting.

Fan Assisted Mode

Set the temperature control (C) between 50°C and 250°C. Both the heating elements and the fan will come on. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 shelves can be used at the same time, following the instructions in the section entitled, "Cooking On More Than One Shelf". This cooking mode is ideal for au gratin dishes or those which require an extended cooking time.

Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast.

This mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appearance. This mode can also be used to thaw white or red meat, fish and bread by setting the temperature to 80°-100°C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the termostat to 60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting the temperature control to 0°C.

The thermostat light (E)

This indicates that the oven is heating up. When the light goes out, the required temperature has been reached. When the light alternately comes on and goes out, it means that the thermostat is working properly to maintain the oven temperature.

Multi-Skewer Rotisserie

This oven is equipped with a removable multiple skewer rotisserie positioned parallel to the back of the oven Fig. 1). Slide the meat to be cooked onto the spit lengthwise, keeping it in place with the adjustable forks.

With kebabs, slide the meat to be cooked onto the skewers provided and place them on the appropriate holders. Slide the holders, "A" and "B" in Fig. 1, into the appropriate holes in the baking tray, rest the groove end of the rod on the guide "D" and slide the rack onto the bottom guide (Fig. 2). Then slide the rod into the hole for the motor shaft and place the grooved end of the rod on the guide "C."

Start the motor by turning the knob to the grill setting .
