(top heating element only) or 
(bottom heating element only).
THE FAN OVEN (
)
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant
symbol ( 
) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. The fan behind the back panel circulates heated air into the oven.
If you need to cook more than one dish in the fan oven at the same time, place the shelves on the first and third position from the bottom. If you are cooking only one dish in the fan oven, use the lower positions, as this will give you better results.
DEFROSTING
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( 
) and set the thermostat knob on the OFF
position (symbol : ●). The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven.
•The temperatures inside the oven can reach 250°C. Always ensure that you are using oven proof baking trays, oven dishes, etc.
•Do not place pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil directly on the base of the oven. This could cause a heat
•Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil, since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire, if over- heated. For the same reason, be careful when placing or removing food in the oven, not to let any fat or oil fall on the oven base. If this happens, carefully clean the oven to avoid unpleasant smells or smoke.
HINTS AND TIPS ON COOKING FISH AND MEAT
You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the dripping pan in the first position from the bottom with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base.
White meat, poultry and fish in general, need a medium temperature cooking (between 150 and 175 ° C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher tempe- rature (between 200 and 250 ° C) for a short time is recommended.

HINTS AND TIPS ON GRILLING
If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them. In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness. Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it.
GREASE FILTER
When cooking meat, the grease filter must be fitted over the oven fan by clipping it over the vents in the back panel. This will prevent a
When cooking is completed and the oven has cooled down, remove the filter by pushing the protruding tongue on the filter upward. (See Fig. 4)
Fit the gease filter only when roasting.
