BEFORE USE
This multi-function oven combines the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of the more
modern fan assisted models in a single appliance. It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose
easily and safely between different cooking modes.
IMPORTANT: The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that set the thermostat to the highest
setting and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then open the
oven door and let the room air in. The odor that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation
of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed.
IMPORTANT: Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or
grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven only when grilling food.
For all other types of cooking, NEVER use the bottom shelf and NEVER place anything on the bott
om of the
o
ven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel.
ALWAYS place your cookware (dishes, aluminum foil, etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance insert
ed
especially along the oven guides.

COOKING MODES
Oven Light: Turns the oven light on when selected.
Broil: Best for melting cheese, toasting and browning. For optimal results, use in conjunction with the Br
oil
t
emperature setting.
Fan Grill: Utilizes a high heat grilling element and fan to circulate hot air throughout the oven. Ideal f
or
c
ooking large cuts of meats so that they are moist inside and crisp on the outside. Use a thermometer to
check the internal temperature. It is recommended to set the temperature no higher than 400°F.
Convection Cooking: Utilizes the powerful heating element surrounding the fan to evenly distribute heat
throughout the oven. This is great for multi-shelf cooking because the fan ensures each rack is heated.
Defrost: Circulates air at room temperature to defrost food. For foods such as meat, fish, and bre
ad,
C
onvection Cooking Mode, set between 175°~225°F, can be used to accelerate the Defrosting proc
ess.

PRACTICAL COOKING ADVICE
Broil
1. Position temperature knob between 150°F and Max/Broil.
2. The top central heating element will come on.
3. The extremely high and direct temperature of the heating element makes it possible to brown the surface
of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep them tender
.
4.
The "Broil" mode is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface lik
e
beef st
eaks, veal, rib steak, filets, and hamburgers.
Fan Grill
1.
Position temperature knob between 150°F and 400°F
.
2. The top central heating element and fan will come on.
3. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radia
tion of the
he
ating element through forced circulation of the air throughout the ov
en.
4.
This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the f
ood.
5.
Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausag
es, ribs lamb chops,
chick
en in a spicy sauc
e, quail, and pork chops.
6.
The "Fan Grill" mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks like swordfish and stuffed cuttlefish.
Convection Cooking
1. Position temperature knob between 150°F and 475°F.
2. The rear heating element and fan will come on, guaranteeing delicate heat distributed unif
ormly
thr
oughout the ov
en.
3.
The "Convection Cooking" mode is also ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods, especially cak
es
tha
t need to rise and for the preparation of certain tartlets on 3 shelves at the same time. Here are a few
examples: cream puffs, sweet and savory biscuits, savory puffs, Swiss rolls and small portions of veg
etables
au gr
atin.
Defrost
1.
Position temperature knob to any temperature.
background
17
2. The fan in the oven will circulate the air at room temperature around the food.
3. This is recommended for defrosting of any type of food, but in particular for delicate types of f
ood which
do not r
equire heat, such as ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, and fruitcak
es.
4.
By using the fan, the defrosting time is approximately halved. In case of meat, fish and bre
ad, it is possible
t
o accelerate the process using the “Convection Cooking” and setting the temperature between 175
°F and
225
°F.
Cooling Ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, this model is equipped with a cooling fan, which comes on
automatically when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the
oven door and the control panel.
NOTE: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently.
