Practical cooking advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best possible way.
With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the following directions are
only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal experience.
Preheating
If the oven must be preheated(this is generally the case when cooking leavened foods), the "fan assisted"
mode can be used to reach the desired temperature as quickly as possible in order to save on energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.
Cooking on more than one rack
If you have to cook on more than on rack at the same time, use only the "fan assisted mode"
only one that is appropriate for this type of cooking.
5 the oven is fitted with 5 racks. During fan assisted cooking, use two of the three central racks; the lowest
and highest racks receive the hot air directly and therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these
racks.
6 As a general rule, use the 2ndand 4th rack from the bottom, placing the foodstuffs that require greater heat
on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when cooking meat roasts together with other food, place
the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.
7 When cooking foodstuffs that require differing times and temperatures, set a temperature that is
somewhere between the two temperature required, place the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the
bottom and take the food requiring less time out of the oven first.
8 Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper;
Using the grill
This multi-function oven offers you 2 different grilling modes only and exclusively with oven door shut.
Use the "grill " mode
top heating element is turned on.Use the bottom rack (1st from the bottom), placing the dripping pan provided
to collect any sauce and/or grease and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom.
When using this mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not
mean you can not use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to desired temperature.
Setting "fan assisted grill"
possible not only to brown the surface, but also to cook the bottom part.
Moreover, it can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin
finish to pasta bakes, for example.
When using this mode, place the grid on the 2nd or 3rd oven rack from the bottom (see cooking table) then, to
prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and thus smoke from forming, place a
st
dripping pan on the 1 rack from the bottom.
Important: always use the grill with the oven door shut.
