Oven Functions

Lower element
Heats only from beneath. Suitable for heating
dishes and raising pastry and similar.
Pizza (HPL-840)
Special for cooking pizzas, pastry and fruit
cakes.
Turbo (HPL-840)
The fan distributes the heat produced by an
element located at the rear of the oven. Due to
the uniform heat distribution, it allows roasting
and baking to take place at two heights at the
same time.
Defrosting
This cooking mode is suitable for gently defrost-
ing of food. In particular, food served cold,
e.g.: cream, custard, pastry, tarts, cakes, fruit,
etc.
Pyrolytic Function
This programme allows you to carry out a
pyrolytic cleaning cycle which involves the oxi-
disation and carbonisation of grease accumu-
lated during cooking, through the high temp-
eratures that are reached inside the oven.
During the cleaning cycle the light inside the
oven will remain off.
NB
The light remains on through all cooking func-
tions except the pyrolytic function.
