MULTILEVEL MULTILEVEL
All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since
the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the
air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A
maximum of two racks may be used at the same
time.
BARBECUE mode
The top heating element is activated. By turning the
THERMOSTAT knob, the different power levels
which may be set will appear on the DISPLAY; these
range between 5% 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
The top heating element is activated and the fan
begins to operate. During part of the cycle the
circular heating element is also activated. 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.
LOW TEMPERATURE modes
This type of cooking can be used for proving,
defrosting, preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the
required speed and slow cooking at low
temperatures. The temperature options are: 40, 65,
