Convection heating

This traditional cooking method (100°C to 220°C) allows you to cook food using heat produced by the ventilated element in the top of the oven. NO MICROWAVES are used in Convection Heating mode: you can therefore

use any metal dishes or heat-resistant

containers. NB: you can choose a temperature from 100° to 220°C in 10°C increments. For quick selection, temperature starts at 150°C.

Preheating

Remember to preheat the oven for the best results when cooking meat and pastries. It is preferable to preheat the oven with the accessories inside and not to open the oven door whilst it is preheating. See directions for use, page 12. The convection assisted top fan of this oven is particularly quick in browning the top of cakes, so it may be necessary to reduce the temperature by 20°C when using cooking temperatures stated in other cookbooks.

Accessories

In order to get a nice base colour for cakes you must preheat the oven with the metal tray. For browning the top of a gratin or grilling relatively thin meat, you may place the dish on the wire rack, on the metal tray.

Check the food several times and don't hesitate to cover the top of a cake or a quiche with a round of baking foil. You can also lower the temperature during cooking (press Convection pad once to indicate the temperature in the display window, then, several presses will change the temperature - by increments of 10°C)

English

Warning: in Convection and Grill Heating mode, the accessories and the oven will be very hot. Take care not to burn yourself.

Grilling

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PREHEAT THE GRILL.

The quartz Grill on your oven browns and crisps for a wide variety of foods.

The Grill provides 3 Grill Settings:

1	Press	Grill 1	1300 W
2	Presses	Grill 2	950 W
3	Presses	Grill 3	700 W

Place food to be grilled on the wire rack or in a shallow dish on wire rack. Place this on the metal tray. For large weight foods, place the dish directly on the metal tray.

The food being grilled should normally be turned over after half the grilling time. Never cover foods when grilling.
