SLOW HEATING AND KEEPING FOOD WARM
The upper element and the circular element connected in series, are switched on; also the
fan is on. The heat is diffused by forced convection with the most heat being produced by
the upper element.
The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and 140°C with the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
To keep foods hot after cooking. To slowly heat already cooked foods.
CONVECTION COOKING WITH VENTILATION
The upper and lower heating elements and the fan turn on.
The heat coming from the top and bottom is diffused by forced convection.
The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and 250°C with the thermostat knob.
Recommended for:
For foods of large volume and quantity which require the same internal and external degree
of cooking; for ie: rolled roasts, turkey legs, joints of meat, cakes, etc.
NB DO NOT place food, trays or silver foil directly onto the base of the oven as this
may damage the enamel coating of the oven.
COOKING ADVICE
STERILIZATION
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the
following way:
a.
Set the switch to position .
b. Set the thermostat knob to position 185 °C and preheat the oven.
c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the
door and set the thermostat knob to position 135 °C.
When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off
the oven and let cool.
REGENERATION
Set the switch to position and the thermostat knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for
about 10 minutes at the highest temperature.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
• that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 and 200 °C.
• that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
