Pastry Mode y
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max. The bottom heating element comes on.
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods - especially cakes that need to rise because the heat com- ing from the bottom helps the leavening process.
Please note that it takes a considerable amount of time for the higher temperatures to be reached, therefore we recommend you use the “Convection Mode” in these cases.
“Top” Oven c
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Between 60°C and Max. The top heating element comes on.
This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cook- ing.
Grill d
Position of thermostat knob “C”: Max
The top central heating element comes on.
The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cook- ing Advice” paragraph.
The oven light
Set knob “B” to the 3 symbol to turn it on. It lights the oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating ele- ments in the oven come on.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, some models are equipped with a cooling fan which comes on automatically when the oven is hot.
When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel.
Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently.
