GENERAL FEATURES
This multifunction electronic oven has 4 heating elements which allow you to choose
between 9 cooking programmes:
• Lower element 1300 W
• Upper element 1000 W
• Grill element 2000 W
• Circular element 2200 W
NOTE:
Before using your new oven, it is necessary to condition your oven.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Heating and cooking in the FULL ELECTRONIC MULTIFUNCTION oven are obtained in
the following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.
b. by semi-forced convection from the bottom
The heat produced by the lower heating element is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan.
c. by radiation
The heat is radiated by the infrared grill element.
d. by double radiation
The heat is radiated by the infrared grill and the top heating elements.
e. by radiation and ventilation
The radiated heat from the infrared grill element is distributed throughout the oven by
the fan.
f. by semi-forced convection from the bottom and back
The heat produced by the lower and circular heating elements is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
g. by forced convection
The air inside the oven is warmed by a circular heating element at the back of the oven.
Hot air is then moved around the oven by a fan near the heating element. Food can be
placed inside a cold oven because it heats up quickly. The heat is evenly distributed
throughout the oven allowing for different dishes to be cooked simultaneously.
h. by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.
i. by ventilation
1. “dEF” - the food is defrosted by using the fan only.
2. By using “dEF” and setting the temperature (from 40° to 100°C maximum) the
lower heating element is activated and this function can be used to keep food
warm (for a limited amount of time).
j. by fast pre-heating (BOOSTER)
This special program allows (by a combination of the heating elements) a fast pre-
heating of the oven cavity.
