HOW TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE

The＂Caribe 76 Eléctrico＂oven combines in a single appliance the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of modern forced air ventilation ovens. It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to easily and safely choose between 9 different cooking modes. The selection of the various functions can be obtained by putting the programmer to the manual position or setting a beginning/end of cooking program (see specific chapter on page 5)and successively by turning the selector (B) and thermostat (C) knobs on the control panel.

Oven light
When the selector knob is in any position other than the “0”position, the oven light comes on.
Attention: The first time you use the oven we recommend that you set the thermostat on the highest setting and leave the oven on for about a half an hour with nothing in it. Then, open the oven door and let the room air. The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until is installed.

The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until is installed.

Maxi grill 、
Important: do not the thermostat knob (C) to over 200℃. During grilling, keep the oven door closed. Both of the heating elements of the grill are activated. For more intensive grilling, select this function.

Ventilation Mode
Set the thermostat knob (C) between 50℃ and 250℃. The circular heating element and the fan will come on. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 rack levels can be used at the same time. This cooking mode is ideal for au gratin dishes or those which require an extended cooking time. Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, meat which is tenderer and a decrease in the loss of weigh for the roast. The ventilated mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appearance. The ventilated mode can also be used to thaw white or red meat, fish and bread by setting the temperature to 80℃-100℃

Lower heating element
Set the thermostat knob (C) between 50℃ and 250℃. By turning the knob to this position. The oven light and lower heating element come on. This position is recommended for finishing the cooking of food (in baking trays) which is already superficially well-cooked but still soft inside.

Convection Mode
Set the thermostat knob (c) between 50℃ and 250℃. The outer heating elements at both the top and the bottom of the oven will come on. The heat is distributed uniformly from top to the bottom. The convection mode is recommended for preparing meat-based dishes featuring of liquids. It still remains the best cooking mode for dry pastries and fruit in general. When cooking in convection mode, only use one dripping-pan or cooking rack at a time, otherwise the heat distribution with be uneven. Select from among the various rack heights based on the whether the dish needs more or less heat from the top or bottom.

Ventilated convection Mode
Set the thermostat knob (c) between 50℃ and 250℃. The outer heating elements at both the top and the bottom of the oven are activated, as well as the fan. Based on the convection model, this combination of features increases the effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced air circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevents foods from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food.

Ventilated Grill 、
Important: do not set thermostat knob (C) to over 200℃. During grilling, keep the oven door closed. All grill components and fan work. In this setting, the central heating elements of the top work. This combination of features compulsory in the air in the oven for the entire cycle of increased non-direct heating elements heat radiation effect. This will allow the heat to penetrate the internal food, and avoid food surface Charred.

Ventilated Maxi grill 、
Important: do not the thermostat knob (C) to over 200℃. During grilling, keep the oven door closed. Both of the heating elements of the grill are activated, as well as the fan and all grill components. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced air circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevents foods from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food.

Grill 、
Important: do not set thermostat knob (C) to over 200℃. During grilling, keep the oven door closed. Food is cooked in the grill by the downward thermal rays produced by an incandescent electric heating element. The high, direct grill temperature immediately browns meat, thus stopping juice dispersion and keeping meat tenderer. The grill is particularly recommended for cooking dishes requiring a high superficial temperature.

Gentle pastry oven
Set the thermostat knob (C) between 50℃ and 250℃. The lower heating element and the fan come on. This setting is ideal when cooking delicate foods, especially pastries that need to rise, because the heat rising from the bottom facilitates leavening. Please note that with this feature it takes a rather long time to reach higher temperatures in the oven. Therefore, if high temperatures are needed, we recommend that you use the ＂Conventional＂setting.

Multi-Skewer Rotisserie

1. Turn support 1 of gear box to a suitable angle, Connect gear box 2 to motor M as Fig. A.
2. Install rotisserie kit as Fig. A and B. Insert one end of rotisserie to gear box 2, and place another end to position 1.
