LEFT MULTIFUNCTION MAIN OVEN GENERAL FEATURES With your new Multi-Function oven it is possible to cook a variety of food using the 6 different cooking functions. These 6 functions are obtained using a combination of the 4 different heating elements plus a defrost function using the fan only.
Figure 27 THERMOSTAT KNOB This only sets the cooking temperature and does not switch the oven on. Rotate clockwise until the required temperature is reached (from 50 °C to 250 °C). FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions. OVEN LIGHT By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on.
GRILLING The infrared grill element at the top of the oven comes on. The heat is dispersed by radiation. Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to position 225 °C for max 15 minutes, then to position 175 °C. For cooking hints, see the chapter “USE OF THE GRILL”.
MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE AFTER COOKING OR SLOWLY HEATING FOODS The upper element, the circular element and the fan come on. The heat is circulated by forced convection with greater intensity in the upper part. The temperature can be set to between 50 °C and 140 °C via the thermostat knob. Ideal for: Keeping food warm after any type of cooking.
SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS The oven set on position can cook several different foods together. Foods as diverse as fish and cakes can be cooked together without the cross transference of flavours. This is because the fats and cooking smell that would normally be deposited on the different foods are oxidised and are not absorbed by the foods.
