FAN GRILLING mode

The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where

 

present) are activated and the fan begins to operate.

 

During part of the cycle the circular heating element is

 

also activated. This combination of features increases the

 

effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided

 

by the heating elements through the forced circulation of

 

the air throughout the oven.

 

This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and

 

allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always

 

cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see “Practical

 

cooking advice”).

 

LOW TEMPERATURE modes

 

This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting,

 

preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and

 

slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options

 

are: 40, 65 and 90°C.

PIZZA modes

The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. This combination heats the oven rapidly. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

BAKING mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise).

ECO mode

The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven.This energy saving mode is recommended for small dishes, ideal for heating foods and finishing off cooking.

Rotisserie spit*

To operate the rotisserie function (see diagram) proceed as follows:

1. Place the dripping pan in position 1.

2. Place the rotisserie support in position 3 and insert the spit in the hole provided on the back panel of the oven.

3. Start the rotisserie

function by selecting the

or

modes;

!When mode is on, the rotisserie will stop if the door is opened.

values are set using the C.O.P.® (Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You may start cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not.

The cooking duration can be customised according to personal taste by modifying the relevant value - before cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes depending on the selected programme. The duration can however be modified even once cooking has begun. If the value is modified before the programme begins, it is stored in the memory and suggested again by the appliance when the programme is next used. If the temperature inside the oven is higher than the suggested value for the selected mode, the text “Hot” appears on the TEMPERATURE display and it will not be possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.

!When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven buzzer sounds.

!Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature.

BEEF mode
