SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
Function Function Description of Function
DEFROST
To speed up defrosting of food. Place food on the middle shelf. Leave food in its
packaging in order to prevent it from drying out on the outside.
KEEP WARM
For keeping just-cooked food (e.g. meat, fried food, flans) hot and crisp. Place food on
the middle shelf. The function will not activate if the temperature in the oven is above
65°C.
RISING
For optimal rising of sweet or savory dough. Place the dough on the 2nd shelf. The oven
does not have to be preheated. To safeguard the quality of proving, do not activate the
function if the oven is still hot after a cooking cycle.
SLOW COOKING
MEAT
SLOW COOKING
FISH
To gently cook meat (at 90°C) and fish (at 85°C). This function offers slow cooking
which ensures the food remains tender and succulent. Thanks to the low temperature,
the food does not brown on the outside and the end result is similar to steam cooking.
For roast joints, brown in the pan first in order to seal in the meat's natural juices.
Cooking times range from 2 hours for fish weighing 300g to 4-5 hours for fish weighing
3 kg; for meat, times range from 4 hours for 1Kg joints to 6-7 hour for 3 kg joints. For
optimum results, do not open the oven door during cooking, as this results in heat
dispersion; use the meat probe (if provided) or a standard oven thermometer.
DRYING
Fruit
Vegetables
Mushrooms
For drying fruit, vegetables and mushrooms. Use the accessory provided (or a fine-mesh
grille) to prevent small pieces falling through as a result of reduction in volume and to
allow air to circulate properly. Use the 3rd shelf to cook on one shelf only, the 1st and
4th shelves to cook on two shelves, the 1st, 3rd and 5th shelves to cook on three
shelves and the 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th to cook on four shelves. The oven does not have
to be preheated.
YOGHURT
For preparing homemade yoghurt. Use small china jars or aluminium foil baking cups.
Cover with aluminium foil during cooking. Position the drip tray with the containers on
the 1st shelf. The oven does not have to be preheated.
TWELI-BASE
For recipes that require heat from below. This function is recommended for finishing or
enhancing browning of the bottom of all sorts of dishes (savoury pies, pizzas, bread,
sweet cakes, biscuits...etc) or for thickening foods with a very liquid consistency such as
sauces. The function can also be used for actual cooking. It is recommended for cooking
foods which do not need to be browned on top, like rice dishes, en cocotte dishes,
stews and sauces. Use of the second shelf is recommended. The oven does not have to
be preheated.
AUTOMATIC
CLEANING
To burn off spatters produced during cooking with an extremely high temperature cycle
(approx. 500°). Two auto-cleaning cycles are available : a complete cycle (PYRO) and a
shorter cycle (EXPRESS). The complete cycle is best used only in the case of very dirty
ovens, while the shorter cycle should be used at regular intervals.
FAVOURITES

the light remains off during cooking and can be temporarily switched on again by
pressing the confirm button. In order to maximize energy efficiency, it is advisable not to
open the door during cooking. It is advisable to use 3nd level. The oven does not have
