! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-
assisted cooking. This is because excessive direct

heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

! In the GRILL and FAN GRILLING cooking modes,
particularly when using the rotisserie spit, place the

dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues
(fat and/or grease).

MULTILEVEL

• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which

requires more heat on 2.

• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack

on top.

GRILL

• Place the rack in position 3 or 4. Position the food

in the centre of the rack.

• We recommend that the temperature is set to its

maximum level. The top heating element is
regulated by a thermostat and may not always
operate constantly.

PIZZA

• Use a lightweight aluminium pizza pan. Place it on

the rack provided.
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan as
this extends the total cooking duration and
prevents the crust from forming.

• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend

adding the mozzarella cheese to the top of the
pizza halfway through the cooking process.
