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
