Cooking modes

!A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and Max, except for

GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level);

GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C). TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly.

MULTI-COOKING mode

All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.

TOP OVEN mode

The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.

GRILL mode

The top heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...

Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode with the oven door partially open.

GRATIN mode

The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.

Practical cooking advice

GB

!Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan- assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

!In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTI-COOKING

Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more heat on 2.

Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

GRILL

Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack.

We recommend that you set the maximum power level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on.

PIZZA

For best results when cooking pizza, use the MULTI-COOKING mode.

Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided.

For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time).

If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.

!When inserting the shelf make sure the

backstop is at the rear of the cavity (see image).
