Modes

Cooking modes

! A temperature value between 60°C and MAX can be set for all cooking
modes except the following:
• GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power level)
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
DEFROST mode
The fan at the bottom of the oven circulates room-temperature air around
the food. This mode is suitable for defrosting any type of food, especially
delicate items that should not be heated, for example: ice-cream cakes
or cakes made with custard, cream or fruit. The defrosting time will be
approximately halved. When defrosting meat, fish or bread, the process may
be accelerated by selecting the "multilevel" mode and setting a temperature
between 80°C and 100°C.
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 unevenly.
BAKING mode
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 temperature sensitive foods (such as
cakes, which need to rise) and for the preparation of "bitesize pastries" on 3
shelves simultaneously.

and buttons are illuminated. The
FAST COOKING mode
The heating elements and the fan are activated, guaranteeing the distribution
of heat consistently and uniformly throughout the oven.
Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This mode is particularly
suitable for cooking pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best
results are achieved using one cooking rack only.
MULTILEVEL mode
All the heating elements (top, bottom and circular) switch on and the fan
begins to operate. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the
air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may
be used at the same time.
PIZZA OVEN mode
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.
GRILL mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present) come on.
The high and direct temperature of the grill is recommended for food which
requires a high surface temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed.
GRATIN mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie (where present) are activated
and the fan begins to operate. This combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating
elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps
prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right
into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.
Rotisserie spit*
! When
mode is on, the rotisserie will stop if the door is opened.
