MULTILEVEL function
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 four
racks may be used at the same time. If you are using
several racks at the same time, we recommend you
place the dripping pan on the lower rack. If you are
cooking on 4 levels at the same time, we recommend
you place the shelves on racks 3, 5 and 6 and the
dripping pan on rack 1.
GRATIN function
The top heating element 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 provided by the heating
elements through the 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.
BARBECUE function
The top heating element are 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. Always cook in
this mode with the oven door closed.
LOW TEMPERATURE function
This type of cooking can be used for proving,
defrosting, preparing yoghurt, heating dishes at the

The temperature options are: 40, 65 and 90 °C.
Automatic cooking functions
 The temperature and cooking duration are pre-set
values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time -
automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.®
(Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The
cooking cycle stops automatically and the oven
indicates when the dish is cooked. The cooking
duration may be modified by a period of several
minutes, as specified in the description of the
individual functions below.
