HOW TO USE THE OVEN
Side racks
The oven has two removable side racks which allow for
four different oven-loading positions. They provide
support for the drip tray, baking tray and/or grid
which slide between the two guides on either side of
the oven, at the same height. When you fit the tray or
grid take care to position it correctly so that it is
horizontal. To choose the best oven position, refer to
the baking and grilling tables.
Fat filter
The purpose of the fat filter is to avoid the fan
becoming dirty while food is cooking, whatever the
type of cooking.
Use the fat filter only when strictly necessary, i.e. for
roasting and grilling. Do not use it for baking cakes,
etc..

HOW TO USE THE OVEN
x
Slide the required grid or tray into the guides.
Fan-assisted convection system
The air is drawn in through openings in the rear wall
of the oven and then heated before it is circulated in
the oven chamber.
The fan-assisted convection ensures even distribution
of the heat inside the oven and allows food to be
cooked simultaneously on three different oven levels.
The temperatures needed for convection cooking are
also lower than for conventional radiant heat cooking
(see Temperature settings).
Heating from above and below
Inside the oven the heating elements are located on
the oven floor and ceiling. Heat is supplied by
radiation.

Sterilisation
Use only commercially-available jars for sterilising in the oven. Bottles, tins and containers with sealed lids must be
sterilised in a steriliser. Meat, sausages and all pureed foods, such as apple sauce, tomato puree, etc., must be
sterilised in a steriliser.
For sterilising in the oven, proceed as follows:
x
Prepare the jars and rubber seals carefully.
x
The containers must all be the same size and contain the same amount of food. Do not use tall containers, since
their tops might fly off.
x
For bottled fruit, fill the jars up to 2 cm from the brim; for vegetables, fill them up to 5 cm from the brim.
x
Moisten the rubber seals and place them on the containers.
