[. . . ] However, if more than one is used, these must be switched halfway through the cooking process. 15 Baking Mode u Position of thermostat knob "C": Between 40°C and 250°C. The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing delicate heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods especially cakes that 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 savoury biscuits, savoury puffs, Swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables au gratin, etc. . . . . "Fast cooking" Mode v Position of thermostat knob "C": Between 40°C and 250°C. The heating elements and the fan come on, guaranteeing constant heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is especially recommended for cooking prepacked food quickly (as pre-heating is not necessary), such as for example: frozen or pre-cooked food) as well as for a few "home-made" dishes. The best results when cooking using the "Fast cooking" mode are obtained if you use one cooking rack only (the second from the bottom), please see the table entitled "Practical Cooking Advice". "Defrosting" ModeU Position of thermostat knob "C": any The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature around the food.

When cooking other food on several racks, use the "Multi-cooking" mode b 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 17 the "baking" mode u, which allows you to cook on 3 racks at the same time (the 1st, 3rd and 5th from the the "baking" mode u or the "Multi-cooking" mode b, as these are the only modes that allow you to do so. When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use · · 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 food that requires 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; Therefore the best results when using the grill modes are obtained by placing the grid on the lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st oven rack from the bottom. Baking Cakes When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping. [. . . ] The panels of the adjacent cabinets must be made of heatresistant material. In particular, cabinets with a veneer exterior must be assembled with glues which can withstand temperatures of up to 100 °C. In compliance with current safety standards, contact with the electrical parts of the oven must not be possible once it has been installed. All parts which ensure the safe operation of the appliance must be removable only with the aid of a tool. [. . . ]
