- Set a duration (for universal cooking functions only)

and the cooking end time.

 

- Stop cooking by turning the FUNCTION knob to the

 

 

“0” position.

 

5. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in

 

operation, an automatic system within the appliance

 

will reactivate the cooking function from the point at

 

which it was interrupted, as long as the temperature

 

has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed

 

cooking modes which have not started will not be

 

restored and must be reprogrammed.

 

Universal cooking functions

 

￿ All functions have a default cooking temperature

 

which may be adjusted manually to a value between

 

40°C and 250°C as desired.

 

For the BARBECUE function, the default power level

 

value is indicated as a percentage (%) and may also

 

be adjusted manually.

 

MULTILEVEL function

 

All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the

 

heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks

 

and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of four

 

racks may be used at the same time. If you are using

 

several racks at the same time, we recommend you place

 

the dripping pan on the lower rack. If you are cooking on 4

 

levels at the same time, we recommend you place the

 

shelves on racks 3, 5 and 6 and the dripping pan on rack

 

1.

 

GRATIN function

 

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit

 

(where present) are activated and the fan begins to

 

operate. During part of the cycle the circular heating

 

element is also activated. This combination of

 

features increases the effectiveness of the

 

unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the

 

heating elements through the forced circulation of

 

the air throughout the oven.

 

This helps prevent food from burning on the surface

 

and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food.

 

Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

 

BARBECUE function

 

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where

 

present) are activated. By turning the SET

 

TEMPERATURE knob, the different power levels

 

which may be set will appear on the display; these

 

range between 5% and 100%. The high and direct

 

temperature of the grill is recommended for food

 

which requires a high surface temperature. Always

 

cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

LOW TEMPERATURE function

This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting, preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options are: 40, 65 and 90 °C.

Spit roast (only available in certain models)

To operate the spit roast function (see diagram) proceed as follows:

1. Place the dripping pan in position 1.

2. Place the rotisserie support in position 3 and insert the spit in the hole provided on the back panel of the oven.

3.Begin spit roast operation by selecting theor functions.

Automatic cooking functions

￿The temperature and cooking duration are pre- set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time - automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.® (Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. The cooking duration may be modified by a period of several minutes, as specified in the description of the individual functions below.

MEAT function

Use this function to cook veal, pork, lamb and beef. Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. It will only be possible to adjust the duration by -10/ +10 minutes.

BAKED CAKES function

This function is ideal for baking cakes. Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. It will only be possible to adjust the duration by -10/+15 minutes.
