Mode Description
All the cooking modes are OFF and the oven heating
elements are OFF.
The light is on only.
In this mode only the internal oven convection fan is
ON i.e. there is no oven heating
In this mode both upper (top) and lower (bottom)
oven heating elements are used to heat the oven air.
However, no fan is used to circulate the heat.
This mode is intended to save energy. In particular
the oven cooling fan works only when needed e.g.
when the oven is hot and the electronics require
cooling.
The Convection Bake mode uses the circular or third
heating element hidden behind the baffle at the back
wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout
the oven by the convection fan.
The Convection Down mode uses the lower (Bottom)
heating element and internal fan.
suitable for preparing a complete dinner (small
portions). Mixing of flavours is avoided and an
important energy saving is obtained.
The Grill mode uses intense heat radiated from the
upper (top) heating element.
The standard time is 1.30 h and can be changed.
