• Start the PIZZA cooking mode.
Recipe for BREAD (maximum amount of dough):
Ingredients:
• 1.3 kg flour
• 700 g water
• 25 g salt
• 50 g fresh baker’s yeast or 4 sachets dried yeast
powder.
Method:
• Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.
• Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately 35
degrees).
• Make a small well in the mound of flour.
• Pour in the water and yeast mixture.
• Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over
itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes, until
it has a uniform consistency and is not too sticky.
• Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a large
bowl and cover it with transparent plastic wrap to
prevent the surface of the dough from drying out.
Place the bowl in the oven, set to 40° using the
LOW TEMPERATURE manual function, and leave to
rise for approximately 30–45 minutes. Alternatively,
leave at room temperature for approximately 1 hour
(until the dough has doubled in volume).
• Break up the dough, kneading gently, and divide it
to create several loaves.
• Place them on a sheet of baking paper on top of the
rack (or on 2 or 3 racks if you wish to cook the
loaves on different shelves) and dust them lightly
with flour.
• Make a few incisions in the top using a sharp blade.
• Place the rack in the oven, on shelf level 2 if using
only one level, or place two racks on shelf levels 1
and 4 if using two levels, or place three racks on
shelf levels 1, 3 and 5 if using three levels.
• Place the dripping pan on shelf level 7 and pour
in 150 g cold water.
• Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.
• Start the automatic function BREAD.
• When the cooking process has finished, leave the
loaves to rest on the rack until they have completely
cooled.
Small Space
Starting the oven
1. Fit the DIVIDER to the DIVIDER shelf “D” using the
two pins, with the arrows turned towards the rear part
of the oven. After it has been fitted correctly, you will
be able to read the text “OPENSPACE” on the front
part of the DIVIDER frame. A buzzer will sound to
confirm that the DIVIDER has been fitted correctly; it
will then be possible to use the two Main and Small
space compartments separately or at the same time.
The EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob will be
disabled.
2. Select the desired cooking function by turning the
SMALL SPACE FUNCTION knob.
3. The oven will begin its preheating stage. The
temperature may be changed by turning the
TEMPERATURE knob. The indicator light flashes
during the pre-heating stage.
4. Once the pre-heating stage is completed, the
icon stops flashing (becomes fixed) and a buzzer
sounds. It is now possible to introduce foodstuffs into
the oven.
5. During cooking it is always possible to:
- Change the cooking function by turning the SMALL
SPACE FUNCTION knob.
- Change the temperature by turning the
TEMPERATURE knob.
- Set the cooking duration in addition to the cooking
end time.
- Stop cooking by turning the SMALL SPACE
FUNCTION knob to the “0” position.
6. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in
operation, an automatic system within the appliance
will reactivate the cooking function from the point at
which it was interrupted, as long as the temperature
has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed
cooking modes which have not started will not be
restored and must be reprogrammed.
Cooking functions
GRILL function
The top heating element is activated. By turning the
TEMPERATURE knob, the different power levels which
may be set will appear on the display; these range
between 5% and 100%. The high and direct
temperature of the grill is recommended for food which
requires a high surface temperature. This function is
particularly suitable for browning food, cooking gratins,
colouring meringues, making toasted sandwiches and
grilling small quantities of thin, lean meat. Always cook
in this mode with the oven door closed.
FAST COOKING function
This function requires the oven to be preheated. This
function is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed
food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked).
