The cooking systems in your Cooker
8
Your new cooker is equipped with a number of different cooking systems:
1. Conventional Heating (Top Oven)
- with upper and lower heat. This system is particularly suitable for
roasting and baking on one shelf only.
2. Variable Grilling (Top Oven)
- the oven can also be used for conventional grilling with a full or
half width fully controllable grill.
Note: The Top Oven door should be open when grilling.
3. Defrost (Main Oven)
- the fan located on the oven wall circulates the air at room
temperature around the food. Recommended for thawing any type
of food but in particular delicate foods not requiring heat. The
thawing time is roughly halved compared to defrosting in still air.
4. Fan Oven (Main Oven)
- the fan oven operates by constantly blowing heated air, from an
element wrapped around the fan, into the oven. This gives improved
efficiency and in general, enables the use of lower temperatures
for cooking. It also means that there is less need to be particular
about shelf positions and that you can bake at more than one level
simultaneously (Batch Baking).
5. Traditional (Main Oven)
- the upper and lower heating elements are switched on in this
position. The traditional oven brings an outstanding level of
temperature distribution and reduced consumption. In traditional
cooking use only one rack to ensure good heat distribution. By using
the various shelf positions available you can balance the quantity of
heat between the upper and lower part. If cooking requires more
heat from below or above, use the bottom or top shelves
respectively.
6. Roast Chicken (Main Oven)
- specially created for cooking excellent roast poultry. This mode
can be used to roast chickens, duck, turkey and other poultry to
perfection. Each heating element is used in the cycle to guarantee a
homogeneous temperature within the oven.
