GB
BARBECUE mode
By turning the THERMOSTAT knob, the different power
levels which may be set will appear on the display; these
range between 50% and 100%. The high and direct
temperature of the grill is recommended for food which
requires a high surface temperature. Always cook in this
mode with the oven door closed.
GRATIN mode
This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the
unidirectional 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. Always cook
in this mode with the oven door closed.
PIZZA modes
This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a
considerable amount of heat, particularly from the element at
the bottom. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the
position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.
BAKING mode
This mode is ideal for baking temperature sensitive foods (such
as cakes, which need to rise) and for the preparation of "bitesize
pastries" on 3 shelves simultaneously.
FAST COOKING mode
Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This
mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed
food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are
achieved using one cooking rack only.
PROVING mode
The oven reaches and maintains a temperature of 40°C
irrespective of the position of the THERMOSTAT knob. This
mode is ideal for leavening dough made with yeast.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-assisted
cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn
temperature sensitive foods.
! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, particularly
when using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in
position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).
MULTI-COOKING
• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires
more heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on
top.
