USING THE OVEN

General tips
• When cooking with the convection oven, traditional oven and grilling, always preheat the
oven for 5 minutes to the set temperature to achieve the best results.
• The cooking times depend on the quality of the products, on the temperature of the food
and on personal tastes. The times indicated in the table are subject to variation, and do
not include the time required to preheat the oven.
• To cook frozen foods refer to the recommended times on the product packaging.
Defrost
For proper defrosting in a short time, proceed as follows:
• Turn the function selector knob (D) to the "DEFROST" position.
• Turn the thermostat knob (A) to the "•" position.
• Turn the Timer knob (B) to the "ON" position.
• Place the flat wire rack (G) in the lower guide and rest the food to be defrosted on a tray
on the wire rack, then close the door.
• When defrosting is completed, turn the Timer knob (B) manually to the "OFF" position.
Example of defrosting: 1 kg/2.2 lbs. of meat, 80-90 minutes without turning it over.
Slow bake
Ideal for pastry and cakes. Good results are also achieved when completing the cooking of
the bottom of the foods or for cooking that requires heat above all at the bottom.

5.
• Turn the function selector knob (D) to the "SLOW BAKE" position.

knob (B) manually to the "OFF" position.
