Functions list Eco Using the grill and the lower heating element in combination is particularly suitable for cooking on a single shelf, as it provides low energy consumption. Static As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck. Fan-assisted static oi The operation of the fan, combined With traditional cooking, ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits and cakes, even when simultaneously cooked on several levels. [For multiple-level cooking, we recommend using the 2° and 4 shelves.] Fan-assisted grill oi The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, grilling perfectly even very thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat {e.g. shin of pork].

Fan-assisted small grill Through the combined action of the fan and the heat of the central element only, this function is perfect for rapid cooking and cooking au gratin of small quantities of food (particularly meats), by bringing together the dietary advantages of the grill and the even cooking of the fan. Grill The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results above all for thin and medium thickness meat and in combination With the rotisserie [where present] gives the food an even browning at the end of cooking. Perfect for sausages, ribs and bacon. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. Small grill Using only the heat released from the central element, this function allows you to grill small portions of meat and fish for making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and any types of grilled vegetable side dishes. Rotisserie grill The rotisserie works in combination with the grill element, allowing food to be perfectly browned. Bottom The heat coming just from the bottom allows you to complete the cooking of foods that require a higher b hout Fa igher bottom temperature, without [mn affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas. Fan-assisted bottom The combination of the fan with just the lower heating element allows cooking to be completed more rapidly. This system is recommended for sterilising or for finishing off the cooking of foods which are already well-cooked on the surface, but not inside, which therefore need a little more heat. Perfect for any type of food. In pyrolytic models, the special defrosting and proving functions are brought together under the same function Fan-assisted circular The combination of the fan and the circular element (incorporated in the rear ofthe oven] allows you to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same temperatures and same type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. lt will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously [on different levels) without mixing odours and flavours.

Turbo The combination of fan-assisted cooking and traditional cooking allows different foods to be cooked on several levels extremely quickly and efficiently, without odours and flavours mingling. Perfect for large volumes that call for intense cooking. Defrosting Rapid defrosting is helped by switching on the fan provided and the top heating element that ensure uniform distribution of low temperature air inside the oven. Pizza The operation of the fan, combined With the grill and the lower heating element, ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect not just for pizzas, but also for biscuits and cakes. Pyrolysis Settng this function, the oven reaches temperatures up to 500°C, destroying all the grease which forms on the internal walls. Vapor Clean This function makes cleaning easier using the steam produced by a little quantity of water poured onto the appropriate drawing placed on the bottom.

General advice + Use a fan-assisted function to achieve uniform cooking at several levels. +_Itis not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature [the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside]. Advice for cooking meat + Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality ofthe food and to consumer taste. +_ Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. lfit is hard, it is ready; if not, it needs another few minutes cooking. Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan-assisted grill + Meat can be grilled even when it is put into the cold oven or into the preheated oven if you wish to change the effect of the cooking. With the Fan-assisted grill function, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling. + We recommend placing the food at the centre ofthe rack. With the Grill function, we recommend that you turn the temperature knob to the maximum value near the LI symbol to optimise cooking. Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits + Use dark metal moulds: they help to absorb the heat better. +_ The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency

Use ofthe dough To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: at the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point ofthe dessert. IFthe dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked +_lfthe dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary. Advice for defrosting and proving +_ Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven. Avoid overlapping the food To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the oven To save energy + Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has accumulated inside the oven + Reduce any opening ofthe door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal +_Keep the inside ofthe appliance clean at all times.
