an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking mode from the point at which it was interrupted, provided that the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not yet started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed. Cooling ventilation In order to cool down the external temperature of the oven, a cooling fan blows a stream of air between the control panel and the oven door. At the beginning of the PYROLYTIC cycle, the cooling fan operates at low speed. ! Once cooking has been completed, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven has cooled down sufficiently. Oven light When the oven is not in operation, the light may be switched on at any time by opening the oven door. Modes Manual cooking modes ! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually as desired, between 30 °C and 300 °C (where possible). MULTILEVEL mode All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of three racks may be used at the same time. CONVENTIONAL mode When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. GRILL mode The top heating element comes 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. ROTISSERIE mode The top heating element and the rotisserie spit will be activated. The function is ideal for rotisserie spit cooking. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. LOW TEMPERATURE modes This type of cooking can be used for proving, defrosting, preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the required speed and slow cooking at low temperatures. The temperature options are: 40, 80 and 120. Rotisserie spit To operate the rotisserie spit (see diagram) proceed as follows:
