USING THE OVEN
General tips
When cooking with the convection oven, traditional oven and grilling, always preheat the oven for 5
minutes to the set temperature.
The cooking times depend on the quality of the products, on the temperature of the food and on perso-
nal tastes. The times indicated in the table are subject to variation, and do not include the time required
to preheat the oven.
•To cook frozen foods refer to the recommended times on the product packaging.
Defrost (only on some models)
For proper defrosting in a short time, proceed as follows:
•Turn the function selector knob (D) to the “DEFROST” position.
•Turn the thermostat knob (A) to the “•” position.
•Turn the Timer knob (B) to the “ON” position.
Place the bake pan (H) in guide 3, the wire rack (G) in the guide 2 and rest the food to be defrosted, then
close the door.
•When defrosting is completed, turn the Timer knob (B) manually to the “OFF” position.
Example of defrosting: 1 kg/2.2 lbs. of meat, 80-90 minutes without turning it over.
Slow bake
Ideal for pastry and cakes. Good results are also achieved when completing the cooking of the bottom of the
foods or for cooking that requires heat above all at the bottom.
Place the bake pan (H) in guide 3, as shown in the figure on page 5.
•Turn the function selector knob (D) to the “SLOW BAKE” position.
Select the required temperature using the thermostat knob (A).
•Turn the Timer knob (B) to the “ON” position; when cooking is completed turn the Timer knob (B) manual-
ly to the “OFF” position.
Keep warm
•Turn the thermostat knob (A) to the “KEEP WARM” position.
•Turn the function selector knob (D) to the “BAKE” position.
•Turn the Timer knob (B) to the “ON” position.
Place the bake pan (H) in guide 3 and rest the food on the bake pan.
•To terminate the operation, turn the Timer knob (B) manually to the “OFF” position.
It is recommended not to leave the foods in the oven for too long, as these may dry out.
Fan & bake (only on some models)
This function is ideal for baking excellent pizzas, lasagna, “au gratin” dishes, all types of meat dishes (apart
from small poultry), roast potatoes, cakes in general and bread.
Proceed as follows:
Place the wire rack (G) or the bake pan (H) in the position shown in the table on page 5.
•Turn the function selector knob (D) to the “FAN & BAKE” position.
Select the required temperature by turning the thermostat knob (A).
•Turn the Timer knob (B) to the “ON” position.
After having pre-heated the oven for 5 minutes, place the food to be cooked inside.
•When cooking is completed, turn the Timer knob (B) manually to the “OFF” position.
