Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-
assisted cooking. This is because excessive direct
heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.
! In the GRILL and FAN GRILLING cooking modes,
particularly when using the rotisserie spit, place the
dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking
residues (fat and/or grease).
Cooking
MULTILEVEL
duration
• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which
requires more heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack
on top.
GRILL
• Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food
in the centre of the rack.
• We recommend that the temperature is set to its
maximum level. The top heating element is
regulated by a thermostat and may not always
operate constantly.
PIZZA
• Use a lightweight aluminium pizza pan. Place it on
the rack provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as
this extends the total cooking duration and
prevents the crust from forming.
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend
adding the mozzarella cheese to the top of the
pizza halfway through the cooking process.
