Practical Cooking Advice

Preheating
If the oven must be preheated (generally this is the case when cooking leavened foods) use the "Fan forced mode" in order
to save on energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven. The most appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.
Using the grill
The Multifunction oven offers you three different grilling modes.
Use the "Half or Half fan grill" setting for grilling in perfect mode small portions like toasted sandwiches, hotdogs, etc., to
perfection.
The " Full grill" position is the best for grilling foods rapidly. For a better distribution of heat, not only to brown the surface
but also to cook the bottom part, select "Full Fan Grill" function.
This mode can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process.
Important: always use the grill with the oven door closed. This will allow you both to attain excellent
results and to save energy
When using any of the three grilling modes , it is recommended that the thermostat knob be turned to the 175°C, as it is
the most efficient way to use the grill (which utilizes infrared rays).
If necessary, however, the thermostat can be set to lower temperatures by simply turning the knob to the desired setting.
When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the lower levels (see cooking table). To catch grease or fat and prevent smoke,
place a dripping-pan at the bottom rack level.
Baking pastries
When baking pastries, always place them in the oven after it has been preheated. Make sure you wait until the oven has
been preheated thoroughly (the red thermostat indicator light will turn off ). Do not open the door while the pastry is
cooking in order to prevent it from dropping.
Batters must not be too runny, as this will result in prolonged cooking times.
