9.1Traditional cooking

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SELECTOR SWITCH FROM 50° TO 250°C

This traditional cooking method, in which heat comes from above and below, is suitable for cooking food on a single level. You have to pre- heat the oven until the set temperature is reached. Place the food in the oven only after the thermostat indicator light has turned off. very fatty meats may be put in when the oven is still cold. Put frozen meat in immediately, without waiting for it to thaw. The only precaution you need to take is to set the temperature about 20°C lower and cooking time about 1/4 longer than you would for fresh meat.

Use high-rim pans to prevent fat splashing and dirtying the sides of the oven.

9.2 Hot-air cooking

FUNCTION SWITCH

THERMOSTAT SELECTOR SWITCH FROM 50° TO 250°C

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.
