Overview of functions
Your oven has a range of functions for
preparing a wide variety of recipes.
Functions which do not use
microwave energy
Fan Plus U
This function is used for baking and
roasting on different levels at the same
time.
A lower temperature can be selected
than when using Conventional Heat
V, as the fan distributes the heat to
the food straight away.
Auto Roast [
This is used for searing at a high
temperature and continued cooking at
a lower temperature.
During the searing phase the oven
heats up to a high temperature (230 °C)
to seal the meat and keep it succulent
and tasty. As soon as this temperature
has been reached, the oven
temperature automatically drops back
down to the pre-selected temperature
for continued roasting.
Grill Y
For grilling and toasting bread, open
sandwiches etc. and browning baked
dishes.
Fan Grill \
For grilling thicker cuts of meat
(e.g. roulades, chicken). Lower
temperatures can be used than when
using the Grill Y function, as the fan
distributes the heat to the food straight
away.

Intensive Bake O
For baking cakes, tarts, pies, quiches
and pizzas that require a crisper base
or moist toppings.
Intensive Bake is not suitable for baking
thin biscuits or for roasting as the juices
will become too dark.
Conventional Heat V
For baking and roasting traditional
recipes, preparing soufflés and cooking
at low temperatures.
If using an older recipe or cookbook,
set the oven temperature for
Conventional Heat 10 °C lower than that
recommended. This won't change
cooking times.
Bottom Heat X
Use this function towards the end of
cooking to reheat or brown the base of
a cake, quiche or pizza.
Gentle Bake K
Ideal for cooking bakes and gratins that
need to be crispy on top.
