“MLTF” Function (Heat maintenance)
This function keeps one of two temperature levels of temperature (either 35°C or 60°C) inside the oven.
- Setting the temperature at 35°C is particularly useful to raise dough for bread and pizza.
- The default setting is 35°C. For this function it is advisable to use the first shelf level.
- Use the 60°C temperature setting to keep the food warm once it is cooked.
Fan function
This function is especially useful for simultaneously cooking different foods
at more than one shelf level (for example: fish, vegetables, pasta).
This function allows temperature control; the temperature can be set in the
range 50°C to 250°C. The default setting is 160°C.
- If possible choose dishes that require the same
- It is not necessary to preheat the oven.
- If the dishes in the oven have different cooking times, remove completed dishes and leave remaining foods until cooked.
Grill function
This function is ideal to grill small pieces of meat (steaks, sausages) and
for making toast.
This function allows four slight adjustments which progressively increase heat
output (position 1, 2, 3, 4) plus a maximum heat setting (position 5) for the
upper heating element. The default setting is 3.
- Preheat the oven for 3/5 minutes with the oven door closed
- The oven door should remain open during grilling for best cooking performance but may be closed if preferred
- When cooking meat, to avoid spatters of fat and smoke, pour a little water into the drip tray.
- Turn the food half-way through grilling time.
Turbo grill function (Grill + Fan)

This function allows four slight adjustments which progressively increase heat

upper heating element. The default setting is 3.
