[. . . ] FAN-ASSISTED STATIC (on some models only): 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. ) 59 Instructions for the user FAN-ASSISTED GRILL: The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, giving perfect grilling results even with very thick foods. FAN-ASSISTED BOTTOM (on some models only): 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. In pyrolytic models, the special defrosting and proving functions are brought together under the same function (see "8. 3 Defrosting function" for further details). CIRCULAR (on some models only): 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 2nd 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 2nd and 4th runners. ) DEFROSTING (on some models only): Rapid defrosting is helped by switching on the fan and the top heating element to ensure uniform distribution of lowtemperature air inside the oven. 60 Instructions for the user PIZZA (on some models only): The operation of the fan, combined with the grill and the lower heating element, ensures uniform cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect not just for pizzas, but also for biscuits and cakes. 8. 1 Cooking advice and instructions 8. 1. 1 General advice 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). 8. 1. 2 Advice for cooking meat Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer 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. 8. 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. · 61 Instructions for the user 8. 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. [. . . ] Remove the intermediate panel by lifting it upwards. Cleaning: · It is now possible to clean the external glass panel and the panels removed previously. In the case of stubborn dirt, wash with a damp sponge and neutral detergent. Replacing the glass panels: · Replace the panels in the reverse of the order in which they were removed. · Reposition the internal glass panel, taking care to centre and insert the 4 pins attached to the glass into their slots in the oven door by applying slight pressure. 78 Instructions for the installer 11.
