Manual cooking modes
All cooking modes have a default cooking
temperature which may be adjusted manually
between 40°C and 250°C as desired.
In the BARBECUE mode, the default power level
value is indicated as a percentage (%) and may also
be adjusted manually.
MULTILEVEL mode
All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since
the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the
air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A
maximum of two racks may be used at the same
time.
BARBECUE mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit
(where present) are activated. By pressing the “+”
and “-” buttons on the left hand side of the control
panel, the power levels that may be set will appear
on the TEMPERATURE display; these range
between 5% and 100%. 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
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit
(where present) are activated and the fan begins to
operate. During part of the cycle the circular heating
element is also activated. 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
and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food.
Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed.
LOW TEMPERATURE modes
This type of cooking can be used for proving,
defrosting, preparing yoghurt and heating dishes at
the required speed. The temperature options are: 40,
65, 90 °C.
Spit roast (only available in certain models)
To operate the
rotisserie spit (see
diagram) proceed as
follows:
1. Place the dripping pan in position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie support in position 3 and
insert the spit into the hole provided on the back
panel of the oven.
3. Start the spit roast function by selecting the
or
modes.
When the mode is activated, the rotisserie spit
will stop if the door is opened.
Automatic cooking modes
The temperature and cooking duration are pre-set
values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time -
automatically. These values cannot be adjusted and
use the C.O.P. ® (Programmed Optimal Cooking)
system. The cooking cycle stops automatically and
the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You
may start cooking whether the oven has been
preheated or not.
When the cooking stage has been reached, the
oven buzzer sounds.
Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the
duration and temperature.
MEAT mode
Use this function to cook beef, pork and lamb. Place
the meat inside the oven while it is still cold. The
dish may also be placed in a preheated oven.
BAKED CAKES mode
This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are
made using natural yeast, baking powder and
desserts which contain no yeast. Place the dish in
the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be
placed in a preheated oven.
