Création cooking modes ! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually between 30 °C and 300 °C as desired. The Création cooking mode covers all manual cooking modes. The oven controls all essential aspects of each of these cooking modes and makes it easier for you to create the perfect dish, from the simplest recipe to the most sophisticated culinary delights: the temperature, heat source, humidity and fan assisted operation are all controlled automatically. This chapter was written with the help of our very own culinary expert. We invite you to follow his advice so you can benefit from his experience and perfect your cooking skills. The recommended cooking modes, temperatures and oven shelf heights reflect our experts own experience in the kitchen and will help you achieve the very best results. The table below specifies whether it is best to pre-heat your oven or not for each Création cooking mode. Observing these suggestions will guarantee perfect results. If you wish to place food in a preheated oven, wait for the preheating stage to be completed (this will be signalled by a series of beeps). The temperature is set automatically, according to the cooking mode selected; however, you may adjust it to suit your recipe. You can also set a cooking time with an immediate or delayed start. 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 two racks may be used at the same time. GRILL mode The top heating element comes 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. SPIT ROAST mode The top heating element and the turnspit will be activated. The function is ideal for spit cooking. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. GRATIN mode The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. 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 mode is ideal for cooking gratin dishes, lasagne, etc... Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. OVEN TRADITION mode When using this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only. Recommended for slow cooking or cooking with a bain-marie. When using a bain-marie, the water should be poured directly into the dripping pan. ROASTING mode The top and circular heating elements switch on and the fan begins to operate. 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 and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. PROVING mode The circular heating element will come on and the fan will operate during the preheating stage only. The oven temperature is ideal for activating the rising process. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. BRIOCHE mode The combined use of the upper and circular heating elements make this cooking mode ideal for desserts containing natural yeast. PIES mode The combined use of the upper and circular heating elements make this cooking mode ideal for puff pastry or flaky pastry desserts. BAKED CAKES mode This cooking mode is suitable for all baked desserts which do not fall into the BRIOCHE or PIES category (for example, small choux pastries, sponge cake, etc...). Cooking modes23

LOW TEMPERATURE modes This type of cooking mode, used for years by industry professionals, enables food (meat, fish, fruit and vegetables) to be cooked at very low temperatures (between 85 and 120°C), thereby guaranteeing a perfect level of cooking and enhancing the taste as much as possible. The value of these advantages should not be underestimated: As the cooking temperatures are very low (in general they are lower than the evaporation temperature), the dispersion of cooking sauces due to evaporation is substantially reduced and the food becomes softer. When cooking meat, the muscular fibres contract less than they would during a classic cooking programme. The result is a more tender meat which does not need to be rested after it is cooked. Meat should be browned before it is placed in the oven. Cooking foods which have been vacuum-packed at low temperatures, a technique used for over 30 years by the most prestigious chefs, brings many advantages: Culinary: flavours are concentrated and the taste, softness and tenderness of the food are maintained. Hygienic: provided that hygiene regulations are respected, this type of cooking protects the food from the harmful effects of oxygen, guaranteeing that the dishes may be stored for longer in the refrigerator. Organisational: thanks to the longer storage period, dishes may be prepared well in advance. Diet-related: this type of cooking limits the amount of fatty substances used and therefore means that the food is lighter and easier to digest. Financial: the food shrinks less so there is more of the product left after it has been cooked. To use this technique, you must use a vacuum- packing machine and the appropriate bags. Follow the instructions given relating to vacuum-packing food carefully. The vacuum-packing technique may also be used for raw products (fruit, vegetables, etc.) in addition to pre-cooked products (traditional cooking). Spit roast To operate the rotisserie spit (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.

3. Start the rotisserie spit by selecting the xxx

cooking mode. ! When this mode is enabled, the spit will stop if the door is opened. Succès automatic cooking modes ! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature. The Succès function encompasses all the automatic cooking programmes devised and set by our chef. All Succès cooking modes are completely automatic: the temperature and cooking duration are pre-set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time - automatically. These values cannot be adjusted using the C.O.P.

(Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. Cooking ends automatically and the oven informs you when the dish is ready (only the Pizzeria function requires the user to check the food before taking it out of the oven). This chapter was written with the help of our very own culinary expert. We invite you to follow his advice so you can benefit from his experience and perfect your cooking skills. The recommended cooking modes, temperatures and oven shelf heights reflect our experts own experience in the kitchen and will help you achieve the very best results. None of the Succès cooking modes - except the Pizzeria function - require the oven to be preheated (see following paragraph). For the ROAST... and PIES... cooking modes, it is possible to programme a delayed start.24

ROAST... mode Use this function to cook beef, pork and lamb. Place the meat inside the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. PIES... mode This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are made using natural yeast, baking powder and desserts which contain no yeast. Place the dish in the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. BREAD mode Use this function to make bread. Please see the following chapter for further details. To obtain the best results, we recommend that you carefully observe the instructions below: Follow the recipe. Do not exceed the maximum weight of the dripping pan. Remember to put 100 ml of water in the dripping pan above the tray holding the dough; commence cooking while the oven is still cold. The dough must be left to rise at room temperature for 1 1 ½ hours (depending on the room temperature) or until the dough has doubled in size. Recipe for BREAD: 1 Dripping pan of 1000 g Max, lower level 2 Dripping pans each holding 1000 g Max, medium and lower levels Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 350 ml water, 10 g salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast) Method: Mix flour and salt in a large bowl. Dilute yeast in lukewarm water (approximately 35 degrees). Make a small well in the mound of flour. Pour in water and yeast mixture. Knead dough by stretching and folding it over itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes until it has a uniform consistency and is not too sticky. Ball and cover the dough with plastic wrap and leave it to leaven at room temperature for 1 1 ½ hours (until it has doubled in size). Cut the dough into equal sized loaves. Place them in the dripping pan on oven paper. Cover the loaves with flour. Make incisions on the loaves. Pour 100 ml of cold distilled water into the dripping pan and place it above the tray holding the dough. Place the loaves inside the oven while it is still cold. Start the BREAD cooking mode. Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill racks until they have cooled completely. Programming the cooking mode ! Programming is only possible after a cooking mode has been selected.

The programme will start automatically at 11:15 a.m. The message awaiting cooking shows that a programme has been scheduled. The display shows the cooking end time and the cooking duration alternately. The cooking end time may be modified while the oven is waiting to start, by following the procedure detailed above. To cancel a programmed schedule, set the duration to 0:00 or switch the oven off

! A delayed cooking programme may be scheduled when setting the duration. 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 SPIT ROAST, GRATIN and ROASTING cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTILEVEL 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. GRATIN Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack. We recommend that the temperature is set to its maximum level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate constantly.26

Precautions and tips ! This appliance has been designed and manufactured in compliance with international safety standards. The following warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read carefully. General safety ! The oven control panel is not a touch-pad, therefore the buttons should be pressed lightly yet firmly to ensure you have performed the intended operations. The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use. The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms. When moving or positioning the appliance, always use the handles provided on the sides of the oven. Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or damp hands and feet. The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions provided in this booklet. Do not touch the heating elements and parts of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep children well away from the appliance. Ensure that the power supply cables of other electrical appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven. The openings used for the 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 when placing cookware in the oven or when removing it. Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven. Do not place flammable materials in the oven: If the appliance is switched on accidentally, it could catch fire. When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable. Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work without having disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains. If the appliance breaks down, under no circumstances should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a Service Centre (see Assistance). Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door. Avoid accidental knocks to the handle as this could damage the glass. Disposal When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused. The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection. Exhausted appliances may be collected by the public waste collection service, taken to suitable collection areas in the area or, if permitted by current national legislation, they may be returned to the dealers as part of an exchange deal for a new equivalent product. All major manufacturers of household appliances participate in the creation and organisation of systems for the collection and disposal of old and disused appliances. Respecting and conserving the environment You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, the delayed cooking mode (see Cooking modes) and delayed automatic cleaning mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise their time efficiently. Always keep the oven door closed when using the SPIT ROAST, GRILL and ROASTING modes. This will achieve improved results while saving energy (approximately 10%). Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding heat dispersion.28

Switching the appliance off Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it. Cleaning the appliance The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap.
