USING THE OVEN 7. 1 · Before using the appliance Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate) from trays, dripping pans and the cooking compartment. COOKING WITH THE OVEN ECO (on some models only): Using the grill and the bottom heating element plus the fan is particularly suitable for cooking small quantities of food, 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. BOTTOM (on some models only): 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. 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. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. The food must be defrosted without its wrapping. Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping. 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. · · 8. 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 preheat the oven before grilling. · When using the Fan-assisted Grill function , you are advised never to , however, we recommend that you set the temperature above 200°C.
