9. COOKING ADVICE

The oven should always be preheated in fan mode to 30/40°C above the cooking temperature. This considerably shortens cooking times and reduces electricity consumption, as well as giving better results.

The oven door must be closed during cooking operations.

9.1Conventional cooking

FUNCTION SELECTOR

THERMOSTAT

50 ÷ 250 °C

This conventional cooking method, with heat from above and below, is suitable for cooking food on just one shelf. The oven must be preheated to the chosen temperature. Do not place the food in the oven until the thermostat light goes out. Place frozen meat in the oven directly, without thawing. The only precaution required is to set temperatures about 20°C lower and cooking times about 1/4 longer than for fresh meat.

9.2Hot air cooking

FUNCTION SELECTOR

THERMOSTAT

50 ÷ 250 °C

This system is suitable for cooking on several shelves, even with foods of different kinds (fish, meat, etc.) without cross-contamination of flavours or smells. The air circulation inside the oven ensures uniform heat distribution.

Multiple cooking is possible provided that all foods require the same temperature.
