FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SELECTOR SWITCH

FROM 50° TO 250°C

This classic cooking system, with the heat coming from below and above, is suited to cooking foods on one level only. Preheat the oven to the required temperature and put the food in the oven only after the thermostat light has gone out.

Deep-frozen meat can be put directly into the oven without defrosting. The only precaution to take is to select lower temperatures, around 20°C, and cooking times about 1/4 longer than fresh meat cooking times. Very fat meat can be put in when the oven is still cold.
