temperature of the grill is recommended for food which

requires a 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 provided by 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.

SPEEDY BARBECUE mode

This mode can be used to cook the perfect barbecue in your

oven. It quickly produces flawless results when grilling meat,

fish and vegetables, without creating smoke. The temperature

is set by default to 270°C; cooking durations, which may be

set as desired, are recommended for various dishes and are

listed in the cooking advice table (see Cooking advice table).

FREASY COOK mode

Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This

mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed

food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are

achieved using one cooking rack only.

PIZZA mode

This combination heats the oven rapidly by producing a

considerable amount of heat, particularly from the element at

the bottom. If you use more than one rack at a time, switch the

position of the dishes halfway through the cooking process.

KEEP WARM mode

This type of cooking mode can be used to keep hot,

previously-cooked foods warm, or to reheat dishes. The

temperature is set by default to 65°C and cannot be adjusted.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-assisted

cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn

temperature sensitive foods.

! In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, particularly when

using the rotisserie spit, place the dripping pan in position 1

to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTI-COOKING

• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires

more heat on 2.

• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

GRILL

• Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the

centre of the rack.

• We recommend that the power level is set to maximum.

The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat

and may not always operate constantly.

SPEEDY BARBECUE

• Position the rack on level 4 and the dripping pan on level 1.

• This is the accessory configuration you should use if you

wish to achieve perfect barbecued results for every type

of dish, without creating smoke or making the appliance

dirty. When you have finished cooking, all excess fat will

have collected in the dripping pan with the water and the

accessories will be very easy to clean.

PIZZA

• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack

provided.

For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as it
