LAMP: Turns on the oven light.
DEFROST: When the dial is set to this position. The fan circulates air at room
40 ÷ 40
temperature around the frozen food so that it defrosts in a few minutes without the
protein content of the food being changed or altered.
FAN COOKING: We recommend you use this method for poultry, pastries, fish and
50 ÷ 240
vegetables. Heat penetrates into the food better and both the cooking and preheating
times are reduced. You can cook different foods at the same time with or without the
same preparation in one or more positions. This cooking method gives even heat
distribution and the smells are not mixed.
50 ÷ 240
Allow about ten minutes extra when cooking foods at the same time.
CONVENTIONAL COOKING: Both top and bottom heating elements are used. Preheat
the oven for about ten minutes. This method is ideal for all traditional roasting and
baking. For seizing red meats, roast beef, leg of lamb, game, bread, foil wrapped food
50 ÷ 280
(papillotes), flaky pastry. Place the food and its dish on a shelf in mid position.
FAN + LOWER ELEMENT: The bottom heating element is used with the fan circulating
the air inside the oven. This method is ideal for juicy fruit flans, tarts, quiches and pâté.
It prevents food from drying and encourages rising in cakes, bread dough and other
50 ÷ 230
bottom-cooked food.
Place the shelf in the bottom position.
FAN ASSISTED GRILL : use the turbo-grill with the door closed.
The top heating element is used with the fan circulating the air inside the oven.
Preheating is necessary for red meats but not for white meats. Ideal for cooking thick
food items, whole pieces such as roast pork, poultry, etc. Place the food to be grilled
150 ÷ 220
directly on the shelf centrally, at the middle level. Slide the drip tray under the shelf to
collect the juices. Make sure that the food is not too close to the grill. Turn the food
over halfway through cooking.
GRILL: use the grill with the door closed.
The top heating element is used alone and you can adjust the temperature. Five
minutes preheating is required to get the elements red-hot. Success is guaranteed for
grills, kebabs and gratin dishes. White meats should be put at a distance from the grill;
the cooking time is longer, but the meat will be tastier. You can put red meats and fish
L1 ÷ L5
fillets on the shelf with the drip tray underneath. The oven has two grill positions:
Grill: 2140 W
ROTISSERIE: use the turnspit with the door closed. The top heating element is used with
the turnspit rotating the food to be cooked. The heating temperature can be adjusted as
L1 ÷ L5
required. The turnspit is best used for medium-sized items. Ideal for rediscovering the
taste of traditional roast. No preheating is required for turnspit cooking.
GRILL+FAN+TURNSPIT: It is indicated for cooking the meat, particularly voluminous,
150 ÷ 220
on the spit and it allows you to cook the food faster.
PYROLYSIS
ECO÷SUPER
The "ECO" function allows you to cook in a healthier way, by reducing the amount of
fat or oil required. Thanks to the use of the grill and fan combined with a pulsating
cycle of air, it will retain the moisture content of the food, grilling the surface and
using a shorter cooking time, without compromising on taste.
It is particularly suitable for cooking meat, roasted vegetables and omelettes. The
150 ÷ 220
cycle of pulsed air keeps the humidity inside the oven and the moisture content of
the food, preserving the nutritional values and ensuring a rapid uniform cooking
process.
