Instruction for Use

lower heating element come on.
This position is recommended for finishing off the cooking
of food (in baking trays) which is already superficially well-
cooked but still soft inside.
Note that when using this position, the thermostat is
automatically set at the maximum temperature which
cannot be regulated.
Upper heating element
Set the termostat knob (C) between 50°C and 250°C.
By turning the knob to this position, the oven light and
upper heathing element come on.
This position is recommended for finishing off the cooking
of food (in baking trays) which is already inside well-cooked
but still soft superficially.
Grill
Important: do not set the thermostat knob "C" to over
200°C. During grilling, keep the oven door closed.
Food is cooked in the grill by the downward thermal rays
produced by an incandescent electric heating element. The
high, direct grill temperature immediately browns meat,
thus stopping juice dispersion and keeping meat more ten-
der. The grill is particularly recommended for cooking dishes
requiring a high superficial temperature: beef and veal
steaks, entrecote, fillet steaks, hamburgers etc...
Ventilated Grill
Important: do not set the thermostat knob "C" to over
200°C. During grilling, keep the oven door closed.
The heating element of the grill are activated, as well as
the fan. This combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating
elements 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.
Gentle pastry oven
Set the termostat knob (C) between 50°C and 250°C.
The lower heating element and the fan come on.
This setting is ideal when cooking delicate foods, especially
pastries that need to raise, because the heat rising from
the bottom facilitates leavening. Please note that with this
feature it takes a rather long time to reach higher
temperatures in the oven. Therefore, if high temperatures
are needed, we recommend that you use the "Conventional"
setting.
Ventilation Mode
Set the thermostat knob (C) between 50°C and 250°C.
Both the heating elements and the fan will come on. Since
the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven,
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.
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 flavor and
appearance. The ventilated mode can also be used to
thaw white or red meat, fish and bread by setting the tem-
perature to 80°-100°C. To thaw more delicate foods, set
the termostat to 60°C or use only the cold air circulation
feature by setting the thermostat to 0°C.
The thermostat light (E)
This indicates that the oven is heating up. When the light
goes out, the required temperature has been reached.
When the light alternately comes on and goes out, it means
that the thermostat is working properly to maintain the oven
temperature.
Multi-Skewer Rotisserie
The Maxiovens are equipped with a removable multiple
skewer rotisserie positioned parallel to the back of the oven
fig. A). Slide the meat to be cooked onto the spit lengthwise,
keeping it in place with the adjustable forks.
With kebabs, slide the meat to be cooked onto the skewers
provided and place them on the appropriate holders.
Slide the holders, "A" and "B" in Fig. A, into the appropriate
holes in the dripping-pan, rest the groove end of the rod
on the guide "D" and slide the rack onto the bottom guide
(Fig. B). Then slid the rod into the hole for the motor shaft
and place the grooved end of the rod on the guide "C".
Start the motor by turning the knob to the grill setting
