Things to watch for

The appliance should only be connected by a qualified fitter (see electrical connection).
- Disconnect the appliance before starting with cleaning or reparation. Preferably by taking the plug out of the socket or by turning off the mains switch.
The glass oven door can heat up when using the oven at maximum temperature for a long time (e.g. during grilling). Act with care if children are nearby.
Grease and oil are flammable when overheated. Stay near the cooker when preparing dishes.
Cords to electrical appliances - e.g. a mixer - can get caught between the door of the convector oven or may accidentally touch the cooking zones.
Always grill with a closed oven door.
Always cool the oven with a closed oven door

Before use of the oven

Prepare for use

Remove all accessories from the oven and clean them thoroughly using a dish-washing detergent. Switch on the closed, empty oven at the maximum temperature for about thirty minutes, after which the grilling element should be switched on for a period of fifteen minutes. Let the oven cool off and clean it with warm water.

Please note:

When the oven is heated to a high temperature for the first time, you will smell a "new appliance" odour. This is to be expected.

No aluminium foil on the oven base

Never cover the base of the oven with aluminium foil and do not put baking tins on the base of the oven. The foil will block the heat, damaging the enamel, and the baking result will therefore not be satisfactory.

Clean immediately

Spilled foods with sugar or fruit juices, such as prune juice or rhubarb, may affect the colour of the enamel. Spills of this type should be cleaned immediately.

Use of the oven

1. Select a temperature and a cooking function.
   2 Set the selectors in position '0' to switch off the oven.

Ovenfunctions

A3405

A3415

A3570

Conventional

It is used for sponges and cakes where the heat received must be uniform to achieve a spongy texture.

Conventional with fan

Appropriate for roasts and cakes. The fan spreads the heat uniformly inside the oven. With this function you can also defrost food. To do this, set the temperature selector in position '0'.

Grill

For preparing dishes with superficial roasting. It allows the outer layer to be browned without affecting the inside of the food. Ideal for flatfood, such as steaks, ribs, fish and toast.

Maxi-grill

Allows greater surfaces to be prepared. Due to the higher power, the time required for browning the food is reduced.

Grill with fan

The ventilator distributes the heat radiated by the grill element throughout the oven. Allows uniform roasting at the same time as surface browning. Ideal for large volume pieces, such as poultry, game etc. It is recommended to put the item on a rack with a tray beneath to collect the stock and juices.

Caution

While using the Grill, Maxi-grill or Grill with fan, the door must be kept closed.

Hot air

The fan in the back of the oven blows hot air into the oven. This is used to heat the dishes. You can use several levels at the same time, thus saving energy. The hot air system is highly suitable for baking cakes, cookies and apple pie.

Pizza

Special for cooking pizzas, pasty and fruit cakes.

Lower element

Heats only from beneath. Suitable for heating dishes and raising pastry and similar.

Grill with lower element

Special for roasts. It can be used for any piece, whatever its size.

Baking tips

Oven levels

Depending on the height of the pastry or cookies, place the baking sheet on the second or third level from the bottom. Tins should be placed on a rack on the first or second level from the bottom.

Tins are important

In particular in ovens with upper and lower heating elements, the material from which the tin is made is extremely important. The best tins are made from black tin or are lined with a special synthetic material: these tins absorb the heat the quickest and can shorten the baking time.

How to test whether or not a cake is cooked

Prick a skewer into the cake at its thickest point about 10 minutes before the end of the given baking time. If the skewer remains dry and no cake mixture sticks to it you can turn off the oven and use the residual heat to let the cake cook thoroughly.

The cake has not risen proper.

Use less liquid next time, or set the oven to a temperature 10^ lower. You should adhere exactly to the mixing times given in your cookery book.

The cake has risen beautifully at the edges

but sunk in the middle

Do not grease the sides of the cake tin. Loosen the cake carefully with a knife after baking.

The cake is too dark on the top

Put the cake on a lower ridge in the oven, set a lower temperature, bake the cake for a little longer and, perhaps, use black baking tins.

The cake is too dark on the bottom

Put the cake on a higher ridge in the oven and set a lower temperature.

The souffle is much too dark on top

Remove the crust. Grill the top for a moment to give a golden brown crust to the souffle. Do not use Parmesan cheese; this type of cheese browns too quickly and will taste bitter. Next time put the dish a little lower in the oven and set the temperature 10^ lower.

The biscuits stick to the baking sheet

Slide the baking sheet back into the oven for a moment and then remove the biscuits immediately.

The cake will not turn out of the tin

Carefully loosen the edge with a sharp knife. Turn the tin upside down again and cover with a cold, damp cloth a couple of times. Next time grease and flour the tin wall.

If the meat is covered when roasted, e.g. in a casserole, it will retain its juices and little or no smoke will develop. When roasted in an open roasting tin it will brown and crisp more quickly. The oven's roasting tin is ideal for roasting large joints.

The table below applies only when you put the dishes into a cold oven. When using top and bottom heat the dishes should be put on to the second ridge.

Grilling

Place the roasting sheet on the lowest level in the oven.
Place the grill sheet in the middle of the oven (see table).
Close the door and turn the knob to the grill setting.

Dark meat such as beef, game and mutton, will brown more quickly than light meat, such as veal, pork and poultry. Light meat and fish files will not be as brown on the outside, even when they are done to juicy perfection on the inside.

Smoke caused by burning grease will often develop when meat is grilled directly on the rack. The smoke development can be minimised by filling the roasting sheet with water and placin

it underneath the grill rack. This will, of course, result in increased condensation.

Browning

To brown and crisp the outside of meat, switch the grill element on for a few moments. Wait until the top is golden brown; turn the food without pricking it.

Small pieces of meat

Grilled meat will retain its natural flavour if it is not coated with oil before grilling.

Large pieces of meat

These are best brushed with a thin coating of oil or butter to prevent the surfaces exposed to the heat from drying out.

Time table for surface grilling
