7. COOKING WITH THE OVEN

ECO: (on some models only)
Using the grill and the lower heating element in combination is
particularly suitable for cooking on a single runner only, as it
provides low energy consumption.
STATIC:
As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this
system is particularly suitable for certain types of food.
Traditional cooking, also known as static or thermal radiation
cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect
for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case
particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.
GRILL:
The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling
results, especially for thin and medium thickness meat and, in
combination with the rotisserie (when present), it allows the
food to be browned evenly at the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, ribs and bacon. This function enables large
rd
quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. (4 or
th
5 runner).
FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM:
The combination of the fan with just the lower heating element
allows cooking to be completed more rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for finishing off the cooking of
foods which are already well-cooked on the surface, but not
inside, which therefore need a little more heat. Perfect for any
type of food.
BOTTOM:
The heat coming solely from the bottom makes it possible to
complete the cooking of foods that require a greater basic
temperature, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes,
pies, tarts and pizzas.
FAN-ASSISTED STATIC:
The operation of the fan, combined with traditional cooking,
ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for
biscuits and cakes, even when simultaneously cooked on
several levels. (For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to
st rd
use the 2 and 4 runners.)
