List of cooking functions
Eco
This function is particularly suitable
for cooking on a single shelf with
low energy consumption.
It is recommended for all types of
food except those that may
produce a large amount of moisture
(e.g. vegetables).
To obtain maximum energy savings
and reduce cooking times, it is
recommended not to preheat the
oven before placing food in it.
When using the ECO function,
avoid opening the door during
cooking.
Cooking (and preheating) times
are longer with the ECO function
and may depend on the amount of
food in the oven cavity.
The ECO function is a delicate
cooking function and is
recommended for cooking that
does not require temperatures
higher than 210°C. It is
recommended that you select a
different function for cooking at
higher temperatures.

Use
49
EN
Static
As the heat comes from above and
below at the same time, this system
is particularly suitable for certain
types of food. Traditional cooking,
also known as static cooking, is
suitable for cooking just one dish at
a time. Perfect for all types of roasts,
bread and cakes, and in any case,
particularly suitable for fatty meats
such as goose and duck.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Fan assisted
The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures
consistent cooking even with
complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits
and cakes, even when
simultaneously cooked on several
levels. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 2nd and 4th
shelf).
Fan with grill
The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by
the grill, grilling perfectly even very
thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of
meat (e.g. shin of pork).
Fan + lower element
The combination of the fan with just
the lower heating element allows
cooking to be completed more
rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for
finishing off the cooking of foods
which are already well-cooked on
the surface, but not inside, which
therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.
Fan with circulaire
The combination of the fan and the
circulaire heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the
oven) allows you to cook different
foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures
and same type of cooking. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and even
distribution of heat. It will be
possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours
mingling.

Use
50
3.5 Cooking with the Direct Steam
function
1. Open the oven door.
2. Lift the cover of the evaporation tray.
3. Fill the tray with sufficient water for the
cooking duration (see ”Direct Steam
cooking information table”).
The maximum level is indicated by a mark
on the inside of the tray.
Direct Steam
This function activates the central
part of the lower heating element
together with the circulaire heating
element and fan, allowing the food
to be cooked by the evaporation of
the water in the tray. The fan evenly
distributes the heat and steam that
cooks the food delicately and
keeps the appearance of the food
and its nutrients unaltered.
Do not place food or any other
object directly on the bottom of the
oven. The base of the oven and
the evaporation tray must always
be left free.
• Use cold tap water which is not
too hard, softened water or still
mineral water.
• Do not use distilled water, tap
water with a high chloride
content (> 40 mg/l), or other
liquids.
The maximum capacity of the
evaporation tray is 250 ml.

Use
51
EN
4. Put the cover back on the tray.
5. Place the food on the oven tray.
6. Place the tray with the food in the oven.
7. Select the Direct Steam function using
the function knob.
8. Select the cooking temperature and
time using the appropriate knobs.
End of Direct Steam cooking
1. Stand to the side of the appliance and
open the door ajar for a few seconds
to allow excess steam to escape.
2. Fully open the door when safe to do so
and cautiously remove the food from
the oven.
3. Wait for the appliance to cool down
completely before cleaning it.
4. Remove the cover from the evaporation
tray inside the oven cavity, remove any
remaining water and dry thoroughly.
5. Use a sponge to remove any
condensation from the base and walls of
the oven cavity, the door glass and the
drip tray at the front of the appliance.
For best results and to save
energy, it is recommended to fill
the tray with sufficient water for the
required cooking.
Note: The evaporation tray cover
may be very hot: use appropriate
protection.
If cooking has just been carried
out with temperatures greater
than 100°C, you must wait for
the oven to cool in order to use
the Direct Steam function.
Take care: the water may be very
hot.

3.6 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is firm to the touch, it is ready;
if not, it needs to be cooked for a few
more minutes.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend
that you set the temperature to the
maximum value to optimise cooking.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked
right 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
• Place frozen foods without their
packaging in a lidless container on the
first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on
the second level and a tray on the first
level. In this way, the liquid from the
defrosting food drains away from the
food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered
with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of
water should be placed in the bottom of
the oven.
To save energy
• 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.
