OVEN COOKING MODES
•
Circulating heat
*
(recommended temperature 200°C min 35°C max 275°C)
• Cooking controlled by the upper element and by the fan.
• Requires preheating before placing the dish in the oven.
• Recommended for slow, gentle cooking: rich game... For retaining the juices in red
meat roasts. For simmering in a covered casserole, dishes that were begun on the hob
(coq au vin, stew).
Traditional ECO
(recommended temperature 200°C min 35°C max 275°C)
• Cooking is controlled by the upper and lower heating elements without the fan.
• This position allows energy savings of around 25% while preserving the quality of the
cooking. The ECO position is used for the energy label performance.
• You will save energy throughout the cooking cycle, but it may take longer.
Fan assisted bottom heating
(recommended temperature 180°C min 35°C max 275°C)
• Cooking is controlled by the lower element combined with reduced input from the grill
and use of the fan.
• Cooking heat from the bottom with a small amount of heat from the top. Place the grid
on the lowest shelf support.
• Recommended for moist dishes (quiches, juicy fruit tarts, etc). The crust will be
thoroughly cooked on the bottom. Recommended for dishes that rise (cakes, brioche,
kugelhopf...) and for soufflés that will not be hampered by a crust formed on the top.
Fan assisted Medium grill
(recommended temperature 200°C min 180°C max 230°C)
• Cooking controlled, alternately, by the upper element and by the fan.
• Preheating is unnecessary. Roasts and poultry are juicy and crispy all over.
• Slide the drip tray onto the bottom shelf support.
• Recommended for all spit-roasted poultry or meat, for sealing and thoroughly cooking
High grill
(recommended temperature 275°C min 180°C max 275°C)
• Cooking controlled by the upper and lower elements with the fan.
• Preheat the oven for 5 minutes. Slide the drip tray onto the lower shelf support in order
to collect any fat.
• Recommended for grilling chops, sausages, toast or prawns placed on the grid.
