Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. When using this traditional
cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. If more than one rack is used, the
heat will be distributed in an uneven manner.
The rear heating element and the fan are switched on, thus guaranteeing the
distribution of heat in a delicate and uniform manner throughout the entire oven. This
mode is ideal for baking and cooking temperature sensitive foods (such as cakes that
need to rise) and for the preparation of pastries on 3 shelves simultaneously.
The circular heating elements and the elements at the bottom of the oven are
switched on and the fan is activated. 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.
Temperature: any temperature between 50°C and Max.The heating elements,
as well as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant and uniform
throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire
surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as
long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2
racks can be used at the same time, following the instructions in the section
entitled: "Cooking On More Than One Rack".This fan assisted mode is
particularly recommended for dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those
requiring considerably prolonged cooking times, such as for example: lasagne,
pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, etc... Moreover, the excellent heat
distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts.
This results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender and a decrease in
the loss of weight for the roast. The fan assisted mode is especially suited for
cooking fish, which can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of
condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appearance.
Desserts: the fan assisted mode is also perfect for baking leavened cakes.
Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly white or red meat and
bread by setting the temperature to 80 °C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the
thermostat to 60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting the
thermostat to 0°C.
The central part of the top heating element is switched on. The high and
direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food that requires a
high surface temperature (veal and beef steaks, fillet steak and
entrecôte). This cooking mode uses a limited amount of energy and is
ideal for grilling small dishes. Place the food in the centre of the rack, as it will
not be cooked properly if it is placed in the corners.
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit will be activated. The provides a larger
grill setting and has an innovative design the improves cooking efficiency by 50 % and
eliminates the cooler corner areas. Use this grilling mode to achieve a uniform
browning on top of the food.
The top heating element and the turnspit are activated and the fan begins to
operate. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the
unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation
of the air throughout the oven. This prevents the food from burning on top by
enabling heat to penetrate into the food more effectively; it is therefore an ideal
way of cooking food quickly under the grill or for grilling large pieces of meat
without having to use the turnspit.
The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature
around the food. This is recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in
particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, such as for example: ice
cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes. By using the fan, the defrosting
time is approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to
accelerate the process using the "multi-cooking" mode and setting the temperature to
80° - 100°C
The lower heating element is activated. This position is recommended for
perfecting the cooking of dishes (in baking trays) which are already cooked on the
surface but require further cooking in the centre, or for desserts with a covering of
fruit or jam, which only require moderate colouring on the surface. It should
be noted that this function does not allow the maximum temperature to be reached
inside the oven (250°C) and it is therefore not recommended that foods are cooked
using only this setting, unless you are baking cakes (which should be baked at a
temperature of 180°C or lower).
The bottom heating element and the fan is activated, which allows for the heat
distribution within the whole cavity of the oven. This combination is useful for light
cooking of vegetables and fish
