FUNCTIONS
symbol name of function explanation hints and tips
Circulaire Quick cooking, on multiple shelf positions. Even heat
throughout. No transference of fl avours- ability to
cook fi sh and cakes at the same time. No preheat
required if food takes less than 20 minutes. (Unless
cooking baked goods).
For best results cook on no more than three shelves at
once and cook straight on the enamel baking tray, with the
sloping edge at the front of the oven. This will encourage
even browning.
Full Grill Thermostatically controlled. This will only work with
the door closed. Must preheat before adding the
food.
Closed door grilling is safer and more energy effi cient. Use
the solid tray with the wire mesh inset. This will allow the
fat to drip away from the grilled food.
Half Grill For grilling smaller quantities of food. Only the inner
elements will be activated.
Always preheat.
Top and Bottom
function
Ideal for slow baked casseroles or cakes. No moving
air means that both will remain moist. Position the
food in the centre of the oven.
Use the metal rack so that the heat can penetrate through
the rack and into the food. Take out any other shelves of
the oven. Always preheat.
Defrost Speeds up the defrosting of food by circulating room
temperature air around the food. Ideal for frozen
desserts. Food will take half the time, than being left
on the side.
Ideal for a dinner party rescue, where a frozen chocolate
gateaux can be defrosted in time for dessert.
Fan and grill For grilling thicker cuts of meat, such as chops and
steaks. The hot air is circulated around the food and
will start the cooking on the underside before the
meat is turned over.
Perfect for cooking a well done steak, allowing the meat to
be cooked all the way through. Use the solid tray with wire
mesh. This will allow the heat to circulate around the food
and for fat to drip away.
Eco Uses the grill, fan and bottom element. Ideal for
cooking smaller quantities of food.
Food takes a little longer to cook but uses less energy.
