To help the air circulate freely
Position the shelves evenly within the oven and maintain a clearance from the oven roof and base.
If more than one cooking dish or baking tray is to be used on a shelf, leave a gap of at least 25mm between the items themselves
and the oven interior.
Main oven conversion guide
Note: this is a high efficiency oven, therefore some adjustment will have to be made to conventional cooking temperatures. The
table below shows conventional temperatures
Setting Temperature °C

4 200
5 250

Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it.
Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits
• Use dark coloured metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.
• Check whether the dessert is cooked all the way through: at the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the
dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a
longer cooking time if necessary.
Advice for defrosting and proving
• We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first runner of the oven.
• The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.
• Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping.
• When defrosting meat, we recommend using a rack positioned on the second runner with the food on it and a tray positioned on the
first runner. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
To save energy
To save energy during use of the appliance, the following instructions may be followed:
• Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has
accumulated inside the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.
