BROIL
Broil delivers intense heat from the inner region of the top element. Great when you need to quickly broil
smaller dishes, for example Crème Brulee, or 1 – 2 portions of your usual favorites, like crispy chicken
breasts or 1 T-bone steak. Broil takes a minute or so to warm up and is carried out with the door closed.
Power levels are expressed as a percentage from LO (50% power) to HI (100% power).
MAXI BROIL
Maxi Broil delivers intense heat from the entire top element. It is the most suitable mode for ‘finishing off’ many
meals, for example browning the top of potato gratin and frittata as well as cooking smaller cuts of meat. Use
Maxi Broil to toast garlic bread or make crostini as well as broiling all your usual favorites. Maxi Broil takes a
minute or so to warm up and is carried out with the door closed. Power levels are expressed as a percentage
from LO (50% power) to HI (100% power).
ROAST
Roast is a two step program that has been developed to help you cook delicious roasts effortlessly.
Place the meat in the cold oven and the first stage will sear the meat at a high temperature for 20
minutes to crisp and brown the exterior. The oven then automatically drops to a lower, selected
temperature for the remainder of the cooking time, giving you a moist and juicy roast. Roast can be
used with or without the cooking probe and is also great for cooking vegetables.
AeroBroil produces food with a finish that is similar to a rotisserie. Meat, poultry and vegetables cook
beautifully; food is crisp and brown on the outside while the inside remains moist and tender. Try using this
mode with foods you might usually fry, like meatballs. Great for chops, cutlets and ground beef burgers as well
as for vegetables with delicious caramelized flavors. Use a short preheat for best results.
OVEN MODES
SELF CLEAN
This oven features a pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle that takes care of the mess and grime that is traditionally
associated with oven cleaning. During Self Clean the oven reaches higher temperatures than it does for
cooking and this burns off and breaks down soil and grease deposits. A smoke eliminator and active venting
system eradicates odour. The ash residue that remains can simply be removed from the cool oven with a
damp cloth or sponge.
ALL ABOUT THE ACTIVE VENT AND COOLING FAN
The Active Vent fan allows perfect results in all modes with the oven door closed. A cooling fan will come on automatically
whenever the oven is in use and blow air out below the oven door. During Broil, Maxi Broil, AeroBroil and Self Clean the cooling
fan runs at a higher speed in order to keep your oven exterior cool.
