FUNCTIONS

CONVECTION
For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.
FORCED AIR
For cooking different foods that require the same cooking temperature on several shelves (maximum three) at the same time. This function can be used to cook different foods without odours being transferred from one food to another.
MAXI COOKING
For cooking large joints of meat (above 2.5 kg). We recommend turning the meat over during cooking to ensure that both sides brown evenly. We also recommend basting the joint every so often to prevent it from drying out excessively.
PIZZA
For baking different types and sizes of pizza and bread. It is a good idea to swap the position of the baking plates halfway through cooking.
GRILL
For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages, cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread. Whengrilling meat, we recommend using a drip tray to collect the cooking juices: Position the tray on any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml of drinking water.
TURBO GRILL
For roasting large joints of meat (legs, roast beef, chicken). We recommend using a drip tray to collect the cooking juices: position the pan on any of the levels below the wire shelf and add 200 ml of drinking water.
RISING
For helping sweet or savoury dough to rise effectively. To maintain the quality of proving, do not activate the function if the oven is still hot following a cooking cycle.
DEFROSTING
For defrosting food more quickly. To activate the defrosting function turn the selection knob to the icon then turn the thermostat knob clockwise to any temperature. This function does not heat so any temperature can be used. When defrosting is completed turn the two controls to the and positions.
ECO FORCED AIR
For cooking roasts and stuffed roasting joints on a single shelf. Food is prevented from drying out excessively by gentle, intermittent air circulation. When this ECO function is in use, the light will remain switched off during cooking but can be switched on again by pressing .
BREAD AUTO
This function automatically selects the ideal temperature and baking time for bread. For best results, carefully follow the recipe. Activate the function when the oven is cold.
PASTRY AUTO
This function automatically selects the ideal temperature and baking time for cakes. Activate the function when the oven is cold.

USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

USEFUL TIPS

HOW TO READ THE COOKING TABLE
The table lists the best function, accessories and level to use to cook different types of food. Cooking times start from the moment food is placed in the oven, excluding preheating (where required). Cookingtemperatures and times are approximate and depend on the amount of food and the type of accessory used. Use the lowest recommended settings to begin with and, if the food is not cooked enough, then switch to higher settings. Use the accessories suppliedand preferably dark-coloured metal cake tins and baking trays. You can also use Pyrex or stoneware pans and accessories, but bear in mind that cooking times will be slightly longer.
COOKING DIFFERENT FOODS AT THE SAME TIME
Using the “Forced Air” function, you can cook different foods which require the same cooking temperature at the same time (for example: fish and vegetables), using different shelves. Remove the food which requires a shorter cooking time and leave the food which requires a longer cooking time in the oven.
BREAD AUTO FUNCTION
For best results you should carefully follow the instructions, using the recipe for mixing 1000 g of dough: 600 g of flour, 360 g of water, 11 g of salt, 25 g of fresh yeast (or two packets of yeast powder).
For optimal rising, allow about 90 minutes at room temperature or 60 minutes in the oven using the “Proving” function.
Put the dough into the (cold) oven, pour 100 cc of cold drinking water on to the bottom of the oven and activate the “Bread Auto” function. After cooking, leave the dough to stand on a wire shelf until completely cooled.
