COOKING ADVICE
COOKING WITH FORCED AIR
Fan cooking is more economical and quicker than cooking in a conventional oven. The moving hot air surrounds the food and penetrates it more quickly than in a conventional oven. The oven can be filled with different dishes all requiring the same cooking temperature. Subtract 10 minutes per hour for every dish requiring a cooking time of more than 1 hour and reduce the heat by 10-20 ; the hotter the oven, the more the temperature can be reduced.
Generally, there is no need to pre-heat the oven, but it is advisable to pre- heat for about 5 minutes to ensure the best results; use the indicator light as a guide, it goes out when the set temperature is reached. Fan cooking is ideal for gelatine based dishes and softening ice cream – a microwave oven is much too strong for these dishes. Cooking yeast based dishes is also speeded up this way. If the oven door has been opened, the oven quickly regains its temperature once the door is closed.
STERILIZATION
Steriliza tion of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following way: a. Set the switch to position FanForced b. Set the thermostat knob to position
175 and preheat the oven. c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water. d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan
making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 125 . When steriliza tion has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.

REGENERATION
Set the switch to position FanForced and the thermostat knob to position 150 . Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for about 10 minutes.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember: – that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 and 200 . – that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
COOKING DIFFERENT DISHES AT
THE SAME TIME
With the function selector in position FanForced , the ventilated oven allows you to cook different types of food at the same time. Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked together without the smells and flavours mixing. The only precautions required are the following: – The cooking temperatures must be as
close as possible with a maximum difference of 20 – 25 between the different foods. – Different dishes must be placed in the
oven at different times according to the cooking time required for each one. This type of cooking obviously provides a considerable saving on time and energy.

18

Prior first use
Remove packaging, clean the interior of the oven. Take out and wash the oven fittings with warm water and a little washing-up liquid. Switch on the ventilation in the room or open a window.
Heat the oven (to a temperature of 250 for approx.30min.)remove any stains and wash carefully.
Caution!
When heating the oven for the first time, it is normal phenomenon to give off smoke and peculiar smell. This will disappear about 30 min later.

By ensuring proper cleaning and maintenance your oven you can have a significant influence on the continuing fault-free operation of your appliance.
Before you start cleaning, the oven must be switched off and you should ensure that all knobs are set to the “0” position. Do not start cleaning until the oven has completely cooled.
Oven
The oven should be cleaned after each use. Cool the oven completely before cleaning.
Never clean the appliance with pressurized hot steam cleaner. The oven chamber should only be washed with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid.

Caution! Do not use cleaning products containing abrasive materials for the cleaning and maintenance of the glass front panel.
Replacement of the oven light
Bulb
Before any maintenance is started involving electrical parts, the appliance must be disconnected from the power supply. If the oven has been in use, let the oven cavity and the heating elements cool down before attempting any maintenance.
Changing the bulb Unscrew the protective cover. We
recommend that you wash and dry the glass cover at this point.
Carefully remove the old bulb and insert the new bulb suitable for high
temperatures (300ºC) having the
following specifications: 220-240V, 50-60Hz, 25W , G9 fitting. Refit the protective cover.

Door removal
In order to obtain easier access to the oven chamber for cleaning , it is possible to remove the door.
To do this, tilt the safety catch part of the hinge upwards. Close the door lightly, lift and pull it out towards you. In order to fit the door back on to the cooker, do the reverse. When fitting, ensure that the notch of the hinge is correctly placed on the protrusion of the hinge holder. After the door is fitted to the oven, the safety catch should be carefully lowered down again. If the safety catch is not set it may cause damage to the hinge when closing the door.

Removal of the internal glass panel
Unscrew and unfasten the plastic latch that is in the corner at the top of the door. Next take out the glass from the second blocking mechanism and remove. After cleaning, insert and block the glass panel, and screw in the blocking mechanism.

Baking tips
Is cake baked?
Pierce the cake with a wooden skewer at the thickest part, if the dough does not stick to it, the cake is bake. You may switch off the oven and use the remaining heat.
Cake has fallen Check the recipe. Use less liquid next time. Follow the mixing times, especially when using electric kitchen mixers.

In case you may not find any particular type of cake in the tables, use the information available for the next most similar type of cake.
Baking with upper and lower elements
Use only a single guide level.
This baking position is especially suitable for baking dry pastry, bread and teacakes. Use dark baking pans. Light pans reflect heat and pastry is not adequately browned.
Always place baking pans on the grid rack. Remove the grid only if baking in the flat biscuit tray, supplied with the appliance.
Preheating shortens the baking time. Do not put the cake in the oven until proper temperature is obtained.

Cake is too light on the bottom Use dark baking pan next time, or place the pan one level lower, or switch on the lower heater a while before the completion.
Cheese cake is undercooked
Next time reduce the baking temperature and extend the baking time.
Warnings regarding the baking tables
The tables indicate the temperature range. Always select lower temperature first. You may always increase the temperature in case pastry needs more baking.
Baking times are indicative only.
The asterix indicates that the oven requires preheating.

Roasting
Tip regarding roasting pans
For best results, use light enamel pans, temperature resistant glass pans, clay dishes or cast iron dishes.
As stainless steel dishes reflect the heat, they are not recommended.
If you cover your roast or wrap it in foil, it will preserve its juices and the oven will remain clean.
The roast will be cooked quicker if it is left uncovered. Large roasts can be placed directly on the grid with the oven tray below for catching the juices and melted fat.

Attention when roasting!
Roasting tables indicate suggested temperatures, guide level and roasting times. Roasting time largely depends upon the type of meat, its size and quality. So you may expect some variations
Roasting of large chunks of meat may produce excessive steaming and condensation on the oven door. This is quite normal, and does not affect the operation of the oven. However, after the completion of roasting wipe the oven door and the glass thoroughly.
Add as much liquid as necessary to prevent burning of juice, dripping from meat. Roast must be checked regularly and liquid added if necessary.

At approximately the middle of the indicated time turn the roast round,
especially if you use the deep roast dish.

When roasting on the grill grid, place the
grid in the deep roasting pan and insert both into the sliding guide. The bottom pan will intercept dripping fat.

Never leave roast to cool in the oven, as it might produce condensation and corrosion
of the oven.

Grilling
Take extra precautions when grilling. Intensive heat from infrared element makes the oven and the accessories extremely hot. Use protective gloves and barbecue accessories!
Perforated roast may produce spurting of hot grease(sausages). Use long grill tongs to prevent skin burns and protect your eyes.
Supervise the grill at all time. Excessive heat may quickly burn your food and provoke fire!
Do not let the children in the vicinity of the grill.
Grill heater is especially suitable for the preparation of low-fat sausages, meat and fish fillets and steaks, and for browning and crisping the roast skin.

Tips for grilling
Grilling should be carried out with the oven door closed.
Grilling tables indicate the recommended temperature, guide levels and grilling times, which may vary according to the weight and quality of meat
Grill element should be pre-heated for 3 minutes.
Oil the grill grid before placing food on it, to avoid food sticking to the grid.
Place the meat upon the grid, then place the grid upon the grease interception pan. Insert both trays into the oven guides.
Turn the meat round after half of the grilling time has expired. Thinner slices will require only one turn, for larger chunks you might need to repeat the procedure. Always use barbecue tongs to avoid losing excessive juice from meat.
Dark beef meat is grilled quicker than lighter pork or veal.

Clean the grill, the oven and the accessories each time after use.
