heat. It switches off when the inside of the oven

reaches the selected temperature. At this point the

light illuminates and switches off alternately,

indicating that the thermostat is working and is

maintaining the temperature at a constant level.

Cooking modes

BAKING

BAKING mode

BAKING

Temperature: any temperature between 50°C and Max.

The rear heating element and the fan come on,

guaranteeing delicate heat distributed uniformly

throughout the oven.

This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate

foods - especially cakes that need to rise - and for

the preparation of certain tartlets on 3 shelves at the

same time. Here are a few examples: cream puffs,

sweet and savoury biscuits, savoury puffs, Swiss

rolls and small portions of vegetables au gratin,

etc.....

CONVECTION mode

CONVECTION

Temperature: any temperature between 50°C and Max.

On this setting, the top and bottom heating

elements come on. This is the classic, traditional

type of oven which has been perfected, with

exceptional heat distribution and reduced energy

consumption. The convection oven is still unequalled

when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several

ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, Spanish style

cod, Ancona style stockfish, tender veal strips with

rice, etc. Excellent results are achieved when

preparing veal or beef-based dishes as well (braised

meats, stew, goulash, wild game, ham etc.) which

need to cook slowly and require basting or the

addition of liquid. It nonetheless remains the best

system for baking cakes as well as fruit and cooking

using covered casserole dishes for oven baking.

When cooking in convection mode, only use one

dripping pan or cooking rack at a time, otherwise the

heat distribution will be uneven. Using the different

rack heights available, you can balance the amount

of heat between the top and the bottom of the oven.

Select from among the various rack heights based

on whether the dish needs more or less heat from

the top.

with the

The heating elements, as well as the fan, will come

on. Since the heat remains constant and uniform

throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food

uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you

can also cook various dishes at the same time, as

long as their respective cooking temperatures are

the same. A maximum of 2 racks can be used at the

same time, following the instructions in the section

entitled: "Cooking On More Than One Rack".

This fan assisted mode is particularly recommended

for dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those

requiring considerably prolonged cooking times,

such as for example: lasagne, pasta bakes, roast

chicken and potatoes, etc... Moreover, the excellent

heat distribution makes it possible to use lower

temperatures when cooking roasts. This 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 appearance.

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.

Temperature: any temperature between 50°C and

Max.

The top heating element comes on.

This mode can be used to brown food at the end of

cooking.
