Cooking modes

GB
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes
between 60°C and Max, except for
• BARBECUE (recommended: set only to MAX power level);
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on.
With 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 unevenly.
MULTI-COOKING mode
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular), as well
as the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant
throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly.
A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.
PIZZA mode
The bottom and circular heating elements, as well as the
fan, will come on. This combination heats the oven rapidly
by producing a considerable amount of heat, particularly
from the bottom element. If you use more than one rack
simultaneously, switch the position of the dishes halfway
through the cooking process.
BARBECUE mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present)
come on.
The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended
for food that requires high surface temperature. Always cook
in this mode with the oven door closed.
GRATIN mode
The top heating element as well as the fan and the rotisserie
(where present) come on. 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 helps prevent food from
burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right
into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door
closed.

BAKING mode
The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing
the distribution of heat delicately and uniformly throughout
the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking
temperature sensitive foods such as cakes that need to rise
and to prepare certain tartlets on 3 shelves simultaneously.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-assisted
cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn
temperature sensitive foods.
! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, particularly
when using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in
position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).
MULTI-COOKING
• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires
more heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on
top.
BARBECUE
• Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the
centre of the rack.
• We recommend that the power level is set to maximum.
The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat
and may not always operate constantly.
PIZZA OVEN
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack
provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as it
prevents the crust from forming by extending the total
cooking time.
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding
the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway
through the cooking process.
To operate the rotisserie
function (see diagram)
proceed as follows:
1. Place the dripping pan in
position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie
support in position 3 and
insert the spit in the hole
provided on the back panel
of the oven.
