To use this technique, you must use a vacuum-packing machine and the appropriate bags. Follow the
instructions supplied relating to vacuum-packing food carefully.

pre-cooked products (traditional cooking).
DEFROSTNG mode
The fan at the bottom of the oven circulates room temperature air around the food. This mode is
suitable for defrosting any type of food, especially delicate items that should not be heated, for
example: ice-cream cakes or cakes made with custard, cream or fruit.
ECO mode
The back heating element and the fan are switched on, ensuring a smooth and uniform heat level
inside the oven.
This programme is suitable for any slow cooking of any type of food with temperatures which can be
set up to a maximum of 200°C; the programme is also suitable for heating food and to complete the
cooking process.
The programme is particularly suitable for the slow cooking of meat and fish, as it allows you to have
softer meat and save energy at the same time.
For a better energy effectiveness, when the product is turned on, the light stays on only for
30 seconds; in order to turn the light back on, press the
AUTOMATIC COOKING MODES
The temperature and the cooking duration are pre-set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time
- automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.® (Programmed Optimal Cooking) system.
The cooking cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You may start
cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not. The cooking duration can be customised
according to personal tastes, modifying it by ± 5/20 minutes depending on the selected programme.
If the value is modified before cooking begins, it is stored in the appliance memory and suggested
again when that cooking mode is next used. If the temperature inside the oven is higher than the
suggested value for the selected mode, the text 'Hot' appears on the display and it will not be possible
to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.
When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven buzzer sounds.
Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature.
BREAD mode
Use this function to bake bread. To obtain the best results, we recommend that you carefully observe
the instructions below:

temperature) or until the dough has doubled in size.
