9. COOKING HINTS

During cooking, do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium or tin foil and do not place pans or oven trays on It as this may damage the enamel coating. If you wish to use greaseproof paper, place it so that it will not interfere with the hot air circulation inside the oven.

In fan-assisted mode preheating should be carried out at 30/40°C above the cooking temperature. This considerably shortens cooking times and reduces power consumption, as well as giving better cooking results.

Keep the oven door closed during cooking

This system is suitable for cooking on several levels, including different types of food (fish, meat etc.), without the tastes and smells mingling. Air circulation in the oven ensures a uniform distribution of heat. Pre-heating

is not necessary.

Multiple cooking is possible as long as the cooking temperature of the different foods is the same.
