The cooking times in the table refer to the food indicated in the recipe and are a
guide only; they may vary depending on the weight.
The table gives the factory-set data. To reset a recipe with the original settings
after it has been modified, just enter the data given in the table.
If the limited power mode is activated (see 6.14 Secondary menu) the cooking
times may vary from those indicated.
Use of the automatic cooking function is not recommended in cooking
operations that require a pre-heated oven, such as pizzas and cakes.

7. COOKING WITH THE OVEN
ECO:
Using the grill and the lower heating element in combination is
particularly suitable for cooking on one set of runners only, as it
provides low energy consumption.
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 or thermal radiation
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, especially for thin and medium thickness meat and, in
combination with the rotisserie (when present), it allows the
food to be browned evenly at the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, ribs and bacon. This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. (4
th or
5th set of runners).
ROTISSERIE GRILL: (on the pyrolytic model only)
The rotisserie functions in combination with the grill element
allow to perfectly brown food.
BOTTOM:
The heat coming solely from the bottom makes it possible to
complete the cooking of foods that require a greater basic
temperature, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes,
pies, tarts and pizzas.
FAN-ASSISTED STATIC:
The operation of the fan, combined with traditional cooking,
ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for
biscuits and cakes, even when simultaneously cooked on
several levels.
(For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to use the 2nd and
4th runners.) 
						

							Instructions for the User
37 FAN-ASSISTED GRILL:
The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave
generated by the grill, giving perfect grilling even with very thick
foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g. shin of pork). We
recommend using the 4
th set of runners.
FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM:
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.
In pyrolytic models, the special defrosting and proving functions are brought
together under the same function (see “7.4 Proving and defrosting functions” for
further details).
CIRCULAR:
The combination of the fan and the circular element
(incorporated in the rear of the oven) enables different foods to
be cooked on several levels, as long as they need the same
temperature and cooking time. Hot air circulation ensures
instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will be possible, for
instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously
(on different levels) without mixing smells and flavours.
(For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to use the 2
nd and 4th runners.)
TURBO:
The combination of fan-assisted cooking and traditional cooking
enables different foods to be cooked on several levels extremely
quickly and efficiently, without any transfer of smells and flavours.
Perfect for large volumes that call for intense cooking.
(For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to use the 2
nd and 4th
runners.)
DEFROSTING:
Rapid defrosting is helped by switching on the fan provided and
the top heating element to ensure uniform distribution of low
temperature air inside the oven. (You are advised to use the 1
st
or 2nd set of runners)
PROVING: (on the multifunction model only)
The proving function, using the heat coming from the top,
makes it possible to prove all types of dough, guaranteeing
perfect results quickly.

7.1 Cooking advice and instructions
7.1.1 General advice
We recommend preheating the oven before putting the food in. Do not
place foods inside the oven until   on the display stops flashing and the beep
has sounded to confirm that the programmed temperature has been reached.
For cooking on several levels, we recommend using a fan-assisted function to
achieve uniform cooking at all heights.
In general, it is not possible to shorten the cooking times by increasing the
temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on
the inside).
7.1.2 Advice for cooking meat
Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality
of the food and to consumers taste.
We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it.
Alternatively, simply press on the roast with a spoon: if it is hard, it is ready; if
not, it needs another few minutes cooking.
7.1.3 Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits
Use dark metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.
The temperature and the cooking duration depend on the quality and
consistency of the dough.
Check whether the dessert is cooked all the way 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.
7.1.4 Advice for defrosting and proving
We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first runner
of the oven.
The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.
Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping. 
						

							Instructions for the User
39
When defrosting meat, we recommend using a rack positioned on the second
runner with the food on it and a tray positioned on the first runner. 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.
7.1.5 Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan-assisted grill
Using the Grill function  , meat can be grilled even when it is put into the
oven cold; preheating is recommended if you wish to change the effect of the
cooking.
With the Fan-assisted grill function  , however, we recommend that you
preheat the oven before grilling.
If it is set to low power mode (see 6.14.3 Low power mode), we recommend that
food is only placed in the centre of the rack.
7.2 To save energy
To save energy during use of the appliance, the following instructions may be
followed:
 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.
 Switch off the internal oven light during cooking (see 6.2.3 Oven inside
lights).
 When the appliance is not in use, switch it off completely by setting it to OFF
(see 6.5 Operating modes).
 Use the ECO function for cooking on a single set of runners.
 Activate low power mode (see 6.14.3 Low power mode)
 Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.
