GRILL mode
The central part of the top heating element is switched on.
The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended
for food that requires a high surface temperature (veal and
beef steaks, fillet steak and entrecôte). This cooking mode
uses a limited amount of energy and is ideal for grilling small
dishes. Place the food in the centre of the rack, as it will not
be cooked properly if it is placed in the corners.

GRATIN mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present)
are activated and the fan begins to operate. This combina-
tion of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirec-
tional thermal radiation provided by the heating elements
through 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.
! The GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes must be performed
with the oven door shut.
DEFROSTING mode
The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air
circulate at room temperature around the food. This is
recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in
particular for delicate types of food which do not require
heat, such as for example: ice cream cakes, cream or
custard desserts, fruit cakes. By using the fan, the
defrosting time is approximately halved. In the case of
meat, fish and bread, it is possible to accelerate the
process using the "multi-cooking" mode and setting the
temperature to 80° - 100°C.
BOTTOM VENTILATED mode
The bottom heating element and the fan is activated,
which allows for the heat distribution within the whole
cavity of the oven. This combination is useful for light
cooking of vegetables and fish.
BOTTOM mode
The lower heating element is activated. This position
is recommended for perfecting the cooking of dishes
(in baking trays) which are already cooked on the
surface but require further cooking in the centre, or
for desserts with a covering of fruit or jam, which only
require moderate colouring on the surface. It should
be noted that this function does not allow the maximum
temperature to be reached inside the oven (250°C)
and it is therefore not recommended that foods are
cooked using only this setting, unless you are baking
cakes (which should be baked at a temperature of
180°C or lower).
Practical cooking advice
! In the GRILL cooking mode, place the dripping pan in
position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).
GRILL
Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food
in the centre of the rack.
We recommend that the power level is set to
maximum. The top heating element is regulated by a
thermostat and may not always operate constantly.
PIZZA
Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the
rack provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan
as it prevents the crust from forming by extending the
total cooking time.
If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recom-
mend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza
halfway through the cooking process.
WARNING! The oven is provided
with a stop system to extract the
racks and prevent them from coming
out of the oven.(1)
As shown in the drawing, to extract
them completely, simply lift the
racks, holding them on the front part,
and pull (2).
