Cooking modes
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking
modes between 60°C and Max, except for
• BARBECUE (recommended: set only to MAX power
level);
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).
TRADITIONAL OVEN mode
With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use
one cooking rack only: if more than one rack is used,
the heat will be distributed unevenly.
MULTI-COOKING mode
Since the heat remains constant throughout the
oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly. A
maximum of two racks may be used at the same
time.
BARBECUE mode
The high and direct temperature of the grill is
recommended for food that requires high surface
temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed.
GRATIN mode
This combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of
the heating elements through forced circulation of the
air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from
burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate
right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the
oven door closed.
PIZZA mode
This combination heats the oven rapidly by
producing a considerable amount of heat,
particularly from the bottom element. If you use more
than one rack simultaneously, switch the position of
the dishes halfway through the cooking process.
BAKING mode
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking
temperature sensitive foods such as cakes that
need to rise and to prepare certain tartlets on 3
shelves simultaneously.
FAST COOKING mode
Pre-heating is not necessary for this cooking mode.
This mode is especially recommended for cooking
pre-packed food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The
best results are obtained if you use one cooking
rack only.
V FAST CLEAN mode
This mode cleans the oven automatically and thoroughly
using pyrolysis (see Care and maintenance).
Practical cooking advice
! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn
temperature sensitive foods.
! In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes,
place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking
residues (fat and/or grease).
MULTI-COOKING
• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that
requires more heat on 2.
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack
on top.
BARBECUE
• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in
the centre of the rack.
• We recommend that you set the maximum power
level. The top heating element is regulated by a
thermostat and may not always be on.
PIZZA MODE
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the
rack provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan
(prevents crust from forming by extending cooking
time).
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza
halfway through the cooking process.
