Manual oven functions
Instructions (Cont.)
F--1 - Defrost mode
(fan only, no heat)
On this setting only the fan runs, without heat, to reduce the defrosting time
of frozen foods. It is particularly suitable for defrosting fruit and cakes. The
time required to defrost the food will depend on the room temperature, the
quantity and type of food. Always check food packaging for the defrosting
instructions of packaged food.
F--2 - Top heat
(top + bottom + rear elements + fan)
On this setting the top, rear and bottom heating elements, as well as the
fan, will come on alternately. Since the heat remains constant and uniform
throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire
surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time,
as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum
of two shelves can be used at a time.
This cooking mode is particularly recommended for dishes requiring a
gratin nish or for those requiring considerably prolonged cooking times, for
example, lasagna, pasta bakes, roast chicken and potatoes, etc. Because of
the excellent heat distribution, you can use lower temperatures when cooking
a roast on this setting, which means your roast loses less of its juices and
weight and remains more tender. The multi-cooking mode is also well suited
for cooking various types of sh, or vegetables such as eggplant, zucchini,
capsicum, which can be cooked fast using a limited amount of condiments,
thus maintaining their avour and appearance.
Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly white or red meat and
bread by setting the temperature to 80°C. To thaw more delicate foods, set
the thermostat to 60°C or use the Defrost mode (F--1).
