[. . . ] Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven due to the fan at the bottom, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 rack levels can be used at the same time, following the instructions in the section entitled, "Cooking On More Than One Rack". This cooking mode is ideal for au gratin dishes or those which require an extended cooking time like lasagne etc. . . Moreover, the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast. The ventilated mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of condiments, thus maintaining their flavour and appearance. Excellent results can also be attained when cooking vegetable-based side dishes like cabbage, beats, cour6 gettes, aubergines, peppers, etc. Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw white or red meat, fish and bread by setting the temperature to 80°-100°C. To thaw more delicate foods, set the thermostat to 50°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting the thermostat to 0°C. Grill - Position of the "G" knob: - Position of the "H" knob: Max The central heating element of the grill will come on. The incandescent heating element cooks food by means of thermal radiation directed downward. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require high temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, entrecôte, filets, hamburger etc. . . Double Grill - Position of the "G" knob : - Position of the "H" knob : Max This oversized grill has a completely new design, increasing cooking efficiency by 50%. The double grill also eliminates pockets of unheated air in the corners of the oven. Ventilated Double Grill - Position of the "G" knob: - Position of the "H" knob: between 50 and 200°C This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating ele- ments through forced air circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevents foods from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food. Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken, quail, pork chops, etc. This mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks, like swordfish, tuna, grouper etc. When it turns off, the temperature inside the oven has reached the setting made with the thermostat knob. At this point, the light will turn on and off as the oven maintains the temperature at a constant level.
