CONVECTION FAN
The convection fan operates during any convection mode. When the oven is
operating in the convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door
is opened. The convection fan always runs during the preheat time.
COMPONENT COOLING FAN
Activates during any cooking or self-cleaning mode to cool inner components and
outer door surfaces. This air is exhausted through the vent located above the oven
door. It continues to run until components have cooled sufficiently. The cooling
ffan operates at double speed (or RPM's) in self-clean and whenever the internal
components temperature becomes high.
PREHEAT AND FAST PREHEAT
Whenever a cooking mode is set and the oven is heating, the "PREHEAT" writing
appears in the temperature display: the vertical bar indicates, in four steps, when
the oven reaches the 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of the set-point temperature.
As soon as the 100% is reached, the control sounds an "end of preheat" tone and
the "PREHEAT" writing disappears.
When it's necessary to heat up the oven rapidly, a Fast Preheat mode is available: it
uses the heating elements and the convection fan in a special way, in order to reduce
the heating time as long as possible.
After having set one of the cooking functions
for which the fast preheat is available, touch the
[FAST PREHEAT] key, the "FAST" writing is shown
in addition to the "PREHEAT" one.
As soon as the set-point temperature is reached, the control sounds an "end of
preheat" tone and both "FAST" and "PREHEAT" writings disappear. The oven
switches automatically to the desired cooking mode that was previously set: put the
food inside now.

GENERAL OVEN TIPS

PREHEATING THE OVEN
•
Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and Convection Roast
modes.
•
Use Fast Preheat mode when a shorter time is desired to preheat the oven.
•
Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.
•
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.
•
Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.
•
Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
•
During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is always displayed.
•
A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the "PREHEAT" writing will
turn off.
