FAN COOKING
For this type of cooking a fan positioned at the back
allows the circulation of hot air inside the oven, creating
uniform heat. In this way cooking is more rapid than
conventional cooking. It is a suitable method for cooking
dishes on more than one shelf, especially when the food
is of different types (fish, meat etc.).
DEFROSTING
By selecting one of the fan cooking functions and setting
the thermostat to zero, the fan allows cold air to circulate
inside the oven. In this way frozen food can be rapidly
defrosted.
It is not essential to preheat the oven, but you are
advised to do so when cooking pastries.
GRILL COOKING
Grill cooking uses top heat to cook a single dish.
Place the food in the oven only once cooking
temperature has been reached, i.e.
when the heating indicator goes out. If you want to
increase top temperature towards the end of the
cooking cycle, set the temperature control to the right
position. It is advisable to open the oven door as little
as possible during cooking.
COOLING FAN
The fan is positioned on the upper part of the oven
and create a circle of cooling air on the inside of the
furniture and through the door of the oven. It is turned
on when the temperature of the outer shell of the oven
reaches 60°C. By switching on the oven with the
thermostat at 200°C the fan starts working after
approx.10 min. It is turned off when the temperature of
the outer shell of the oven descends under 60°C. By
switching off the oven with the thermostat at 200°C the
fan stops working after approx. 30 min.
