Practical Cooking Advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best
possible way. With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the
following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal
experience.
Preheating
If the oven must be preheated (this is generally the case when cooking leavened foods), the
“Multi-Cooking Mode” and the “Speedcook Mode” can be used to reach the desired
temperature as quickly as possible in order to save on energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most appropriate cooking mode can then be
selected.
Cooking on more than one rack
If you have to cook food using several racks, use either the “Baking Mode” or the “Multi –
Cooking Mode”, as these are the only modes that allow you to do so.
When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use the “Baking Mode”, which allows you
to cook on three (3) racks at the same time (the1st, 3
rd
, and 5th from the bottom). Some
examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice Table”.
When cooking other food on several racks, use the “Multi-Cooking Mode” keeping the
following suggestions in mind:
The oven is fitted with 5 racks. During fan assisted cooking, use two of the three central
racks; the lowest and highest racks receive the hot air directly and therefore delicate
foodstuffs could be burnt on these racks.
As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th rack from the bottom, placing the foodstuffs that
require greater heat on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when cooking meat
roasts together with other food, place the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the
more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.
When cooking foodstuffs that require differing times and temperatures, set a
temperature that is somewhere between the two temperatures required, place the more
delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom and take the food requiring less time out of
the oven first.
Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper rack.
Using the “Speedcook” Mode
Functional, fast and practical for those of you who use pre-packed products such as frozen or pre-
cooked food along with other food items. You will find useful suggestions in the “Practical Cooking
Advice Table”.
