    For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts (e.g. steaks).
    –
    For browning food in larger dishes.
    Economy

    							Functions Notes
    Fan plus
    [+]–For baking and roasting.
    –You can bake and roast on different levels at the same
    time.
    –Lower temperatures can be used than with Conventional
    heat as the Fan plus system distributes the heated air
    around the food.
    
    Automatic
    [depending on
    programme]–The list of Automatic programmes available will appear in
    the display.
    Auto roast
    [+]You will find this function in the list of Automatic
    programmes.
    –For roasting.
    During the searing phase, the oven is heated up to a high
    temperature (230 °C) to sear the meat.
    Once this temperature has been reached, the temperature
    of the oven is automatically lowered to the set cooking
    temperature (continued roasting temperature).
    Fan grill
    [+]– The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately.
    – For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.
    – The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by the
    fan. This enables a lower temperature to be selected than
    when using Full grill/Economy grill.
    	Intensive
    bake
    [++]–
    For cooking dishes which require a moist topping and a
    crisp base such as pizza and quiche lorraine.
    –

    Moisture
    plus
    [++]–
    For baking and roasting with moisture injection.
