List of traditional cooking functions

Not all functions are available on some models.

STATIC

Traditional cooking suitable for the preparation of one dish at a time. Ideal for cooking roasts, fatty meats, bread, pies.

FAN ASSISTED

Intense and uniform cooking. Ideal for biscuits, cakes and multilevel cooking.

CIRCULAIRE

The heat is distributed quickly and uniformly. Suitable for all dishes, ideal for cooking on multiple levels without mixing smells or flavours.

TURBO

Allows quick cooking on multiple shelves without mixing the aromas. Perfect for large volumes that call for intense cooking.

GRILL

It allows to obtain excellent grilling and grating results. Used at the end of cooking, it gives a uniform browning to the dishes.

FAN-ASSISTED GRILL

Allows optimal grilling of even the thickest meats. Perfect for large cuts of meat.

BOTTOM HEAT

The heat comes from the bottom of the cavity. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.

CIRCULAIRE + BOTTOM

Allows you to quickly finish cooking food that is already cooked on the surface but not internally. Ideal for quiches, suitable for all kinds of dishes.

PIZZA

Function designed for cooking pizza. Perfect not just for pizzas, but also for biscuits and cakes.

ECO

This function is particularly suitable for cooking on a single shelf with low energy consumption.
It is recommended for all types of food, excluding those that can create a lot of humidity (such as vegetables). To obtain maximum energy savings and reduce cooking times, it is recommended to place food in the oven without preheating.

When using the ECO function, avoid opening the door during cooking.

Cooking (and preheating) times are longer with the ECO function and may depend on the amount of food in the oven.

The ECO function is a delicate cooking function and is recommended for food withstanding temperatures lower than 210°C; in case of cooking at higher temperatures, select another function.

Cooking advice

General advice

• Use a fan assisted function to achieve consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).

Advice for cooking meat

• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it needs another few minutes cooking.

Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan with grill

• Meat can be grilled even when it is put into the cold oven or into the preheated oven if you wish to change the effect of the cooking.
• When using the fan-assisted with grill function, we recommend that you preheat the oven before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend that you set the temperature to the maximum value to optimise cooking.

Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and biscuits

• Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: At the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.

Advice for defrosting and proving

• Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the oven.

To save energy

• Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has accumulated inside the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.

Mini guide to accessories

Rack	We recommend the use of the grill as a support surface for baking moulds/casseroles. The grill can be used as a base for grilling with the deep baking tray placed on a shelf below to collect the juices.
Deep tray	We recommend the use of the deep baking tray for cooking on one level only. Place the deep baking tray on the centre shelf when using the fan-assisted functions. Place the deep tray on the 2nd or 3rd shelf from below when using the STATIC function. Place the baking tray on the last shelf with the baking tray grill to cook in GRILL mode .

5. Remove the residual water inside the oven.
6. Replace the self-cleaning panels and the rack/tray support frames, if fitted.

For greater hygiene and to avoid foods taking on unpleasant odours:

• We recommend drying the inside of the oven with a fan assisted function at 160°C for around 10 minutes.
• If self-cleaning panels are fitted, we recommend that you dry the inside of the oven with a simultaneous catalytic cycle.

We recommend wearing rubber gloves for these operations.

We recommend removing the door in order to make the manual cleaning of the parts that are difficult to reach easier.

Pyrolytic (on some models only)

See General safety instructions.

Pyrolytic cleaning is an automatic hightemperature cleaning procedure which causes dirt to dissolve. This process makes it possible to clean the inside of the oven very easily.

Preliminary operations

Before starting the pyrolytic cycle:

• Clean the internal glass pane following the usual cleaning instructions.
• Remove any food residues or large spills from previous cooking operations from the inside of the oven.
• Completely remove all accessories from inside the oven.
• For very stubborn encrustations spray an oven cleaning product onto the glass (read the warnings on the product); leave for 60 minutes, then rinse and dry the glass using kitchen roll or a microfibre cloth.
• If present, remove the temperature probe.

   It is not possible to select any function once the door lock device has been activated.
   At the end, is displayed and flashes and a beep is activated.
6. Turn the function knob to position 0 to exit the function.
   The door is locked until the temperature inside the oven cavity returns to a safe level.

During the Pyrolytic cycle the fans produce a more intense level of noise due to a greater rotation speed. This is an absolutely normal operation, intended to provide more effective heat dispersal. At the end of the pyrolytic cycle, the fans will continue to operate for long enough to avoid overheating the walls of adjacent units and the front of the oven.

During the first Pyrolytic cycle, unpleasant odours may occur due to the normal evaporation of oily manufacturing substances. This is an absolutely normal phenomenon which disappears after the first pyrolytic cycle.

If the pyrolytic cycle gives unsatisfactory results at minimum duration, it is recommended to set a longer time for subsequent cleaning cycles.
