results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender
and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast. The fan
assisted mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which
can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of
condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appear-
ance.
Desserts: the fan assisted mode is also perfect for baking
leavened cakes.
Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly
white or red meat and bread by setting the temperature to
80 °C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the thermostat to
60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting
the thermostat to 0°C.
“Top” oven
Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 50°C and Max.
The top heating element comes on.
This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cook-
ing.
Grill
Position of thermostat knob “M”: Between 50°C and Max.
The top heating element and the turnspit come on.
The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes
it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while
locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also
highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature
on the surface: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets,
hamburgers etc...
Always leave the oven door ajar during cooking, except
when using the turnspit.
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking
Advice” paragraph.
Fan Assisted Grill
Position of thermostat knob “M”: between 50°C and 200°C.
The top central heating element and the fan come on. 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, al-
lowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent
results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and
vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken in a spicy
sauce, quail, pork chops, etc.
All “gratin” cooking must be done with the oven door shut.
This mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks, like sword-
fish, tuna, grouper, stuffed cuttlefish etc.
The oven-operating pilot lamp (O)
Signals when the oven is heating. It switches off when the
temperature inside the oven reached the temperature
selected by the knob. At this point the alternate turning on
and turning off of this light indicates that the thermostat is
operating correctly to keep the oven temperature constant.
Timer Knob (S)
In order to use the timer, it must be wound by turning the
"S" knob almost one complete turn in the clockwise direc-
tion . Then, turning it back , set the desired time by
lining up the number for the minutes with the mark on the
control panel.
Attention
Avoid the children touch the oven door because it is very hot
during the cooking.
Practical advice for burner use
In order to get the maximum yield it is important to remember
the following:
· Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table) so
as to avoid flames overshooting the edges.
· At boiling point turn the knob to minimum.
· Use cookware with lids.
· Always use cookware with flat bottoms.
Storage recess below the oven (only a few models)
Below the oven a recess can be used to contain cooking pans
and cooker accessories. Moreover, during oven operation, it may
be used to keep food warm.To open the storage is necessary
turn it downwards.
Caution: this storage recess must not be used to store
inflammable materials.
