Cooking functions

GRILL function

The top heating element is activated. By turning the TEMPERATURE knob, the different power levels which may be set will appear on the display; these range between 5% and 100%. The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food which requires a high surface temperature. This function is particularly suitable for browning food, cooking gratins, colouring meringues, making toasted sandwiches and grilling small quantities of thin, lean meat. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

FAST COOKING function

This function requires the oven to be preheated. This function is particularly suitable for cooking pre- packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked).

Programmed cooking modes which have not started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.

Cooking functions

UNIVERSAL function

All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of three racks may be used at the same time. If you are using several racks at the same time, we recommend you place the dripping pan on shelf level 1. If you are cooking on 3 levels at the same time, we recommend you place the shelves on racks 3 and 5, and the dripping pan on rack 1.
