6.  COOKING HINTS 
 
 
 
In fan-assisted mode preheating should be carried out at 30/40°C above 
the cooking temperature. This considerably shortens cooking times and 
reduces power consumption, as well as giving better cooking results.
 
 
 
 
Keep the oven door closed during cooking

This traditional cooking method, in which heat comes from above and 
below, is suitable for cooking food on a single level. You have to pre-
heat the oven until the set temperature is reached. Place the food in the 
oven only after the thermostat indicator light has turned off. very fatty 
meats may be put in when the oven is still cold. Put frozen meat in 
immediately, without waiting for it to thaw. The only precaution you need 
to take is to set the temperature about 20°C lower and cooking time 
about 1/4 longer than you would for fresh meat.
