Starting

Press the “START” button.

The oven will start preheating for the selected time.

After the preset time of 3 minutes, the oven will stop.

2nd step: Crispy cooking

Always use oven gloves to handle the Crousty dish, it can be very hot.

Open the oven door and place the food in the Crousty dish.

Press the “Crousty” button once.

Setting the cooking time

Select the cooking time, using the rotary knob.

The maximum timer setting in “Crousty” mode is 60 minutes.

Setting the power

By default, the oven runs at maximum power. If you wish to use maximum power, there is no need to make a power setting.

If, on the other hand, you wish to use a reduced power setting, select it by pressing the “W” button the required number of times.

600W 450W 300W

In “Crousty” mode, the maximum permitted power is 600 W.

Press the “START” button to start cooking.

The grill element may well turn on and off during cooking. This is quite normal and prevents overheating.

The Crousty dish must not be put through the dishwasher. Wash it in warm water with washing-up liquid. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
