savoury) on a single shelf. This function can also be used
for cooking on two shelves. Switch the position of the
dishes to cook food more evenly. Use the 3rd shelf to
cook on one shelf only, and the 1st and 4th to cook on
two shelves. Preheat the oven before cooking.

pies) and stuffed vegetables on one level only. This
function uses discontinuous, delicate fan assistance,
which prevents excessive drying of foods.

used with this function.
MAXI COOKING
To cook large joints of meat (above 2.5 kg). Use
the 1st or 2nd shelves, depending on the size of the
joint. The oven does not have to be preheated. It is
advisable to turn the meat over during cooking for
more even browning. It is best to baste the meat every
now and again to prevent it from drying out.

(temperature and time) and the oven will automatically
manage the optimum cooking cycle. Place the dough
