HOT AIR COOKING

The circular element and the fan are on. The heat is diffused by forced convection and the temperature must be regulated between 50° and 250 °C with the thermostat knob.

It is not necessary to preheat the oven.

Recommended for:

For foods that must be well done on the outside and tender or rare on the inside, i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole fish, etc.

GRILLING

The infra-red heating element is switched on. The heat is diffused by radiation.

Use with the function selector knob to position and the thermostat knob between 50°C and the 225°C position maximum and with the oven door closed.

For correct use see chapter “USE OF THE GRILL”

Before using the grill, preheat for about five minutes.

Always grill with the oven door closed and do not use the grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.

Caution: The oven door becomes very hot during operation.

Keep children well out of reach.

Recommended for:

Intense grilling action for cooking with a broiler; browning, crisping, “au gratin”, toasting, etc.

COOKING ADVICE

STERILIZATION

Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the fol- lowing way:

a.Set the switch to position .

b.Set the thermostat knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.

c.Fill the dripping pan with hot water.

d.Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 135 °C.

When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.
