TOP OVEN GENERAL FEATURES
This is a conventional oven with 2 cooking positions and 3 heating elements (top,
bottom and grill), thermostatically controlled.
TOP OVEN OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the CONVENTIONAL oven are obtained in two following
ways:
by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element
MAIN OVEN GENERAL FEATURES
This is a MULTI-FUNCTION oven. As its name indicates, this is an oven that
presents particular features from an operational point of view. In fact, it is possible
to utilize 7 different programs to satisfy every cooking need. The 7 positions,
thermostatically controlled, are obtained by 4 heating elements (top, bottom, grill
and circular).
MAIN OVEN OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following
ways:
by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
by forced convection
The fan draws in air contained within the oven housing at the rear of the
oven and forces it over the circular heating element. The hot air envelops
the food in the oven giving faster and more even cooking before it is drawn
back into the housing to repeat the cycle.
It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously.
by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infra red grill element.
by radiation and ventilation
The radiated heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
