Oven thermostat knob
After selecting a cooking function, turn this knob to set the desired temperature. The oven thermostat light will illuminate whenever the thermostat is in operation to heat up the oven or maintain the temperature.

Oven Functions
* The functions of your oven may be different due to the model of your product.

Oven Lamp:

Only the oven light will switch on. It will remain on for the duration of the cooking function.

Defrosting:

The oven's warning lights will switch on and the fan will start to operate. To use the defrost function, place your frozen food in the oven on a shelf in the third slot from the bottom. It is recommended that you place an oven tray under the defrosting food to catch the water accumulated due to melting ice. This function will not cook or bake your food, it will only help to defrost it.

Hot air roasting:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the ring heating element and fan will start operating. The turbo function evenly disperses the heat in the oven so all food on all racks will cook evenly. It is recommended that you preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.

Static roasting:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the lower and upper heating elements will start operating. The static cooking function emits heat, ensuring even cooking of food. This is ideal for making pastries, cakes, baked pasta, lasagne and pizza. Preheating the oven for 10 minutes is recommended and it is best to use only one shelf at a time in this function.

Fan-assisted roasting:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the upper and lower heating elements and fan will start operating. This function is good for baking pastry. Cooking is carried out by the lower and upper heating elements within the oven and by the fan, which provides air circulation, giving a slightly grilled effect to the food. It is recommended that you preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.

Pizza:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the ring, lower heating elements and fan will start operating. This function is ideal for baking food, such as pizza, evenly in a short time. While the fan evenly disperses the heat of the oven, the lower heating element ensures baking of the food.

Small grill:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the grill heating element will start operating. This function is used for grilling and toasting foods on the upper shelves of the oven. Lightly brush the wire grid with oil to stop food sticking and place food in the centre of the grid. Always place a tray beneath the food to catch any drips of oil or fat. It is recommended that you preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.

When grilling, the oven door must be closed and the oven temperature should be adjusted to 190°C.

Large grill:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the grill and upper heating elements will start operating. This function is used for faster grilling and for grilling food with a larger surface area, such as meat. Use the upper shelves of the oven. Lightly brush the wire grid with oil to stop food sticking and place food in the centre of the grid. Always place a tray beneath the food to catch any drips of oil or fat. It is recommended that you preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.

When grilling, the oven door must be closed and the oven temperature should be adjusted to 190°C.

Fan-assisted large grill:

The oven's thermostat and warning lights will switch on, and the grill, upper heating elements and fan will start operating. This function is used for faster grilling of thicker food and for grilling of food with a larger surface area. Both the upper heating elements and grill will be energised along with the fan to ensure even cooking. Use the upper shelves of the oven. Lightly brush the wire grid with oil to stop food sticking and place food in the centre of the grid. Always place a tray beneath the food to catch any drips of oil or fat. It is recommended that you preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.

When grilling, the oven door must be closed and the oven temperature should be adjusted to 190°C.
