The sizes of the unit for installing the cooker under a worktop or in a column unit are shown in figure. [. . . ] 16 This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation provided by the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the oven door closed. GRATIN mode Practical cooking advice !Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fanassisted cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods. In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, particularly when using the rotisserie, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTILEVEL • Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires more heat on 2. € Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top. bARBECUE • Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food in the centre of the rack. € We recommend that the power level is set to maximum. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always operate constantly. For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as it prevents the crust from forming by extending the total cooking time. € If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process. GB  DEFROSTING mode The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature around the food. By using the fan, the defrosting time is approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using the “multi-cooking” mode and setting the temperature to 80° - 100°C. Spit roast This accessory should only be used when cooking with the grill. Proceed as follows: thread the meat you wish to cook onto the rod positioned across the oven lengthwise, fixing it in place with the adjustable forks supplied. Oven preheating times are set as standard and may not be modified manually. 18 Analogue Programmer Programming cooking* Programming a cooking duration with immediate start 1.
