Automatic Cooking Modes - Hotpoint FK 1037 EN P.20 /HA S Operating Instructions Manual

FAN GRILLING mode
GB
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where
present) are activated and the fan begins to operate.
During part of the cycle the circular heating element is
also activated. This combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided
by the heating elements through the forced circulation of
the air throughout the oven.
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and
allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always
cook in this mode with the oven door closed (see "Practical
cooking advice").
LOW TEMPERATURE modes
This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting,
preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and
slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options
are: 40, 65 and 90°C.
PIZZA modes
The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan
begins to operate. This combination heats the oven rapidly.
If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the position
of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.
BAKING mode
The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus
guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform
manner throughout the entire oven. This mode is ideal for baking
temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes, which need to rise).
ECO mode
The rear heating element and the fan are switched on,
thus guaranteeing the distribution of heat in a delicate and
uniform manner throughout the entire oven.This energy
saving mode is recommended for small dishes, ideal for
heating foods and finishing off cooking.

the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You may start
cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not.
The cooking duration can be customised according to
personal taste by modifying the relevant value - before
cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes depending on the
selected programme. The duration can however be modified
even once cooking has begun. If the value is modified
before the programme begins, it is stored in the memory
and suggested again by the appliance when the programme
is next used. If the temperature inside the oven is higher
than the suggested value for the selected mode, the text
"Hot" appears on the TEMPERATURE display and it will
not be possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.
! When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven
buzzer sounds.
! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking
time and temperature.

baking tray in position 5.
• The dough must be left to rise at room temperature for
1 – 1 ½ hours (depending on the room temperature) or
until the dough has doubled in size.
Recipe for BREAD:
