10. COOKING FUNCTION 
 
 
UPPER AND LOWER HEATING ELEMENT  
 
 
Keep the oven door closed during cooking. 
 
 
Ideal for all types of cooking, especially baking, fish, 
terrines and vegetable based dishes. 
To ensure even heat distribution, we recommend you 
cook on one level only. 
Preheating is recommended in particular when baking 
cakes and pizza. 
How to cook? 
 
 
SMALL OVEN: Turn the small oven thermostat knob to 
between 50°C and 250°C 
 
 
 
 
 
WIDE GRILL ELEMENT  
 
GRILL ELEMENT 
 
 
Keep the oven door closed during grilling. Grilling 
with the door open could permanently damage the 
oven and affect safety of operation.
 
 
 
This cooking mode is recommended for cuts of meat 
(pork chops, sausages, etc.) which stay tender and juicy, 
and for toasting or for browning toppings on prepared 
dishes, preferably hot. 
 
 
How to cook? 
 
 
LARGE OVEN: Set the large oven function knob on the 
 symbol and the thermostat knob on 
. For best 
results, place the pan in the highest guide (4-3 for the 
large oven / 2-3 for the small oven). For short-term 
cooking of small quantities, place the grid in the fourth 
guide from the bottom. For long-term cooking and grills, 
put the grid in the lowest guide suitable for the size of the 
food. 
SMALL OVEN: Turn the small oven thermostat knob to 
the 
 or 
 symbol (depending on the amount of food to 
be cooked) and set the power using the variable grill 
knob. 
 
 
Cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat 
not on its weight.
