the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its

entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various

dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cook-

ing temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 racks

can be used at the same time, following the instructions in

the section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”.

This fan assisted mode is particularly recommended for

dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those requiring con-

siderably prolonged cooking times, such as for example:

lasagne, pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, etc…

Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possi-

ble to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This

results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender

and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast. The fan

assisted mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which

can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of

condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appear-

ance.

Desserts: the fan assisted mode is also perfect for baking

leavened cakes.

Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly

white or red meat and bread by setting the temperature to

80 °C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the thermostat to

60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting

the thermostat to 0°C.

The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill

makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts

while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is

also highly recommended for dishes that require a high

temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak,

filets, hamburgers etc...

Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cook-

ing Advice” paragraph.

Fan Assisted Grill e

Position of thermostat knob “L”: between 60°C and 200°C.

The top central heating element and the fan come on. This

combination of features increases the effectiveness of the

unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements

through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven.

This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, al-

lowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent

results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and

vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken in a spicy

sauce, quail, pork chops, etc.

This mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks, like sword-

fish, tuna, grouper, stuffed cuttlefish etc.

The oven light

Set knob “E” to the 3 symbol to turn it on. It lights the

oven and stays on when any of the electrical heating ele-

ments in the oven come on.

The control knobs for the hob electric hotplates (F)

The cookers can be equipped with standard, rapid and

automatic electric hotplates in a variety of combinations (the

rapid hotplates can be distinguished from the rest by the red

boss in the centre of the same, and the automatic hotplates

by the smaller circular aluminium plate in their centre).

To avoid any heat loss and damage to the hotplates, we

advise you to use pans with a flat bottom, whose diameter is

no less than that of the hotplate itself.

The table contains the different settings indicated on the

knobs and the use for which the hotplates are recommended.

Before using the hotplates for the first time, you should

heat them at maximum temperature for approximately 4

minutes, without any pans. During this initial stage, their

protective coating hardens and reaches its maximum

resistance.

Electric hotplate indicator light (G)

This light comes on when any of the electrical hotplates on

the hob have been turned on.

Using the hob

To get the best from your hob, here are a few helpful tips to

keep in mind during cooking or when preparing food.

· Use flat-bottomed pans to ensure the same adheres fully

to the cooking zone.

· Use pans whose diameter is sufficient to cover the

hotplate fully, so as to guarantee the use of all the available

heat.

· Make sure the bottom of the pan is always clean and dry,

to ensure correct contact and a long life for your hotplates

and pans.
