Main Oven 
Upper and lower element only:
This method is known as conventional cooking, and is suitable for dishes that require a more gentle heat, such as baking. The 
oven needs to be pre-heated to the required temperature, and is best suited for single items, such as large cakes e.g. Christmas 
cake. Best results are obtained by placing food in the centre of the oven.
Grill element:
This allows rapid cooking and browning of foods. Best results can be obtained from using the top shelf for small items, the lower 
shelves for larger items, such as chops or sausages. Cooking using this method should be carried out with the door closed, unless 
instructed to do otherwise.
Lower heating element only:
This function is ideal for foods that require extra base temperature without browning, e.g. pastry dishes, pizza. Also suitable for slow 
cooking of stews and casseroles.
Circulaire with upper and lower elements:
The use of the fan with both elements allows food to be cooked quickly and effectively on a number of shelves. Ideal for roasts and 
large joints that require thorough cooking. There is no transference of smells or flavours when using this function. This function 
offers a similar result to rotisserie, it moves the heat around the food, instead of moving the food itself, enabling any size or shape to 
be cooked, and not only items that will fit onto a rotisserie.
Snowflake:
With the switch on this symbol, no heating is possible even if the thermostat is turned.
Fan with upper and lower elements:
The elements combined with the fan aim to provide more uniform heat. This is a similar method to conventional cooking, so pre-heat 
is required. This is not as effective as circulaire cooking but can also be used to cook biscuits and pastry.
Fan with grill element:
Please note: cooking in this mode is conducted with the door closed. The fan reduces the fierce heat from the grill, providing an 
excellent method for grilling a range of foods, chops, steaks, sausages etc. without having to turn the food during cooking. This gives 
good results, reduces drying out of foods, and gives even browning and heat distribution, the top two shelves being recommended 
for use. The lower area of the cavity can also be used to keep other items warm at the same time. An excellent facility to use when 
cooking a grilled breakfast.
Circulaire:
The combination of the fan and circular element around it, gives uniform heat distribution with no cold spots. This results in many 
benefits - no preheat if cook time is more than 20 minutes, no flavour transfer when cooking different foods at the same time, less 
energy is needed, and it cooks at 10% quicker than a normal oven. All foods can be cooked on this function, and it is especially 
suitable for cooked chilled foods.
