COOKING ADVICE
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allows
you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. With
time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile
cooking appliance and the following are only a guide, which
may be varied according to your own personal taste.
Cooking on More Than One Shelf
If you have to cook food on several shelves, use either the
“baking” mode or the “Multi-cooking” mode, as
these are the only modes that allow you to do so.
When cooking delicate food on more than one shelf, use
the “baking” mode, which allows you to cook on 3
shelves at the same time (the 1st, 3rd and 5th from the
bottom).
Some examples are included in the “Cooking Chart”.
When cooking other food on several shelves, use the “Multi-
cooking” mode keeping the following suggestions in
mind:
• The oven is fitted with 5 shelf positions. During fan
assisted cooking, use two of the three central shelf
positions: the lowest and highest shelves receive the
hot air directly and therefore delicate foodstuffs could
be burnt using these shelf positions.
• As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th shelf position
from the bottom, placing the foodstuffs that require
greater heat on the 2nd shelf from the bottom. For
example, when cooking meat roasts together with other
food, place the roast on the 2nd shelf position from the
bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th shelf
position from the bottom.
• When cooking food that require differing times and
temperatures, set a temperature that is somewhere
between the two temperatures required, place the more
delicate food on the 4th shelf position from the bottom
and take the food requiring less time out of the oven
first.
• Use the baking tray on the lower shelf position and the
shelf on the upper position.
Baking Cakes
When baking cakes, always preheat the oven. Make sure
you wait until the oven has preheated thoroughly. Do not
open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake
from dropping. In general, if:
Using the 'Fast Cooking' mode
Functional, fast and practical for those of you who use
frozen or pre-cooked food along with other food items. You
will find useful suggestions in the 'Cooking Chart'.
Cooking Fish and Meat
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use temperature
settings from 180 °C to 200 °C.
For red meat that should be well done on the outside while
tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with
a high temperature setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time,
then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature
setting. Place the meat on the centre of the shelf and place
the grill pan/baking tray beneath it to catch the fat.
Make sure that the shelf is inserted so that it is in the
centre of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount
of heat from below, use the low shelf positions.
Cooking Pizza
For best results when cooking pizza, use setting for “
Pizza Mode”:
• Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan, placing it on the shelf
supplied with the oven. If the baking tray is used, this
will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a
crispy crust;
• Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is
cooking;
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we
recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top
halfway through the cooking process.
• If cooking on more than one shelf (up to 2), we advise
you to use the Multi-cooking Mode as the Pizza Mode
would heat the bottom shelf more than the others.
Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, it is fitted
with a cooling fan that comes on when the function selector
"G" is turned. In this case, the fan is always on and a normal
flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and
the control panel.
Note: when cooking is finished, the fan stays on until
the oven has cooled down sufficiently, even if the
function selector “G” is set to “0”.
In "Fast cooking" mode, the fan comes on automatically
only when the oven is hot.
Once you have removed the food from the oven, we rec-
ommend you leave the oven door ajar for a few minutes,
this will drastically reduce the duration of the cooling cycle.
The process is controlled by an additional thermostat and
can consist of one or more cycles.
