• Stop cooking by turning the SELECTOR knob to
the "0" position.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.
THERMOSTAT indicator light
When this is illuminated, the oven is generating
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.
Oven light
This is switched on by turning the SELECTOR knob
to any position other than "0". It remains lit as long
as the oven is operating. By selecting
knob, the light is switched on without any of the
heating elements being activated.

Cooking modes

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes
between 50°C and Max, except for the following modes
• GRILL and DOUBLE GRILL (recommended: set
only to MAX power level).
• FAN-ASSISTED DOUBLE GRILL (recommended:
do not exceed 200°C).
DEFROSTING DEFROSTING DEFROSTING DEFROSTING DEFROSTING mode
The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the
air circulate at room temperature around the food.
This is recommended for the defrosting of all types
of food, but in particular for delicate types of food
which do not require heat, such as for example: ice
cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit
cakes. By using the fan, the defrosting time is
approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and
bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using
the "multi-cooking" mode and setting the
temperature to 80° - 100°C.
STATIC OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will be
activated. When using this traditional cooking mode,
it is best to use only one rack at a time, otherwise
the heat will not be distributed evenly.
* Only available in certain models.
FAN OVEN mode

The top and bottom heating elements will switch on
and the fan will begin to operate. 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.
OVEN TOP mode

The central part of the top heating element is
switched on. The high and direct temperature of the
grill is recommended for food that requires a high
surface temperature (veal and beef steaks, fillet
steak and entrecôte). This cooking mode uses a
with the limited amount of energy and is ideal for grilling
small dishes. Place the food in the centre of the
rack, as it will not be cooked properly if it is placed
in the corners.
DOUBLE GRILL DOUBLE GRILL DOUBLE GRILL DOUBLE GRILL DOUBLE GRILL
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit will
be activated.
This provides a larger grill than the normal grill
setting and has an innovative design that improves
cooking efficiency by 50% and eliminates the
cooler corner areas. Use this grilling mode to
achieve a uniform browning on top of the food.
FAN ASSISTED DOUBLE GRILL mode
The top heating element and the turnspit are
activated and the fan begins to operate. 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 prevents the food from
burning on top by enabling heat to penetrate into the
food more effectively; it is therefore an ideal way of
cooking food quickly under the grill or for grilling
large pieces of meat without having to use the
turnspit.
! The GRILL, DOUBLE GRILL and FAN-ASSISTED
DOUBLE GRILL cooking modes must be performed
with the oven door shut.
! When using the GRILL and DOUBLE GRILL cooking
modes, place the rack in position 5 and the dripping
pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or
grease). When using the FAN-ASSISTED DOUBLE
GRILL cooking mode, place the rack in position 2 or 3
and the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking
residues.
