During cooking it is always possible to:
GB
• Change the cooking mode by turning the SELECTOR knob
• Change the temperature by turning the THERMOSTAT knob
• Set the total cooking time and the cooking end time (see below).
• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this will avoid the enamel
coating being damaged. Only use position 1 in the oven when cooking with
the rotisserie spit.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating heat. It switches off when
the inside of the oven reaches the selected temperature. At this point the
light illuminates and switches off alternately, indicating that the thermostat
is working and is maintaining the temperature at a constant level.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob
than "0". It remains lit as long as the oven is operating. By selecting
with the knob, the light is switched on without any of the heating elements
being activated.
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
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.
PASTRY Mode
The bottom heating element comes on.
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods - especially cakes
that need to rise because the heat coming from the bottom helps the leavening
process.
Please note that it takes a considerable amount of time for the higher
temperatures to be reached, therefore we recommend you use the
"Convection Mode" in these cases.
MINI GRILL
The top central heating element comes on.
The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to
brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them
tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high
temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers
etc...
Some grilling examples are included in the "Practical Cooking Advice"
paragraph.
MAXI GRILL
The top heating element comes on.
This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.
