• 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.

All the heating elements (top and bottom), 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 top heating element comes on. This mode can be

used to brown food at the end of cooking.

The top 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: such as

beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...

Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical

Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode

with the oven door closed.

The top heating element, as well as the fan, will 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

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-

assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn

temperature sensitive foods.

level. The top heating element is regulated by a

thermostat and may not always be on.

• Ensure that the power supply cable of other

electrical appliances does not come into contact

with the hot parts of the oven.

• The openings used for ventilation and dispersion

of heat must never be covered.

• Always grip the oven door handle in the centre:

the ends may be hot.

• Always use oven gloves to place cookware in the

oven or when removing it.

• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the
