Indesit K3E 517 /RU [19/24] Cooking modes

Cooking modes

! A temperature value can be set for all cooking

modes between 50°C and MAX, except for the

GRILL programme, for which only the MAX power

level is recommended.

! The first time you use your appliance, we

recommend that you set the thermostat to the

highest setting and leave the oven on for about half

an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut.

Then, open the oven door and let the room air. The

odour that is often detected during this initial use is

due to the evaporation of substances used to

protect the oven during storage and until it is

installed.

The different cooking functions are set up by

operating the two knobs: the selection knob and the

thermostat knob. For any selection-knob setting

different from idle, identified by the “

0”, the oven

light turns on; the knob setting marked

permits

turning on the oven light without any heating element

being switched on. When the oven light is on, it

means that the oven is in use, and it will remain on

for the entire time the oven is being used.

DEFROSTING Mode

The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the

air circulate at room temperature around the food.

This is recommended for the defrosting of all types

of food, but in particular for delicate types of food

which do not require heat, such as for example: ice

cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit

cakes. By using the fan, the defrosting time is

approximately halved. In the case of meat, fish and

bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using

the “multi-cooking” mode and setting the

temperature to 80° - 100°C.

CONVECTION Mode

Position of thermostat knob between

5050

50°C and

MaxMax

Max.

On this setting, the top and bottom heating

elements come on. This is the classic, traditional

type of oven which has been perfected, with

exceptional heat distribution and reduced energy

consumption. The convection oven is still unequalled

when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several

ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, Spanish style

cod, Ancona style stockfish, tender veal strips with

rice, etc. Excellent results are achieved when

preparing veal or beef-based dishes as well (braised

meats, stew, goulash, wild game, ham etc.) which

need to cook slowly and require basting or the

addition of liquid. It nonetheless remains the best

system for baking cakes as well as fruit and

cooking using covered casserole dishes for oven

baking. When cooking in convection mode, only use

one dripping pan or cooking rack at a time,

otherwise the heat distribution will be uneven. Using

the different rack heights available, you can balance

the amount of heat between the top and the bottom

of the oven. Select from among the various rack

heights based on whether the dish needs more or

less heat from the top.

FAN-ASSISTED Mode

Position of thermostat knob : Between

5050

50°C and

MaxMax

Max.

The heating elements, as well as 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 racks can be used

at the same time, following the instructions in the

section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”.

This fan assisted mode is particularly recommended

for dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those

requiring considerably prolonged cooking times,

such as for example: lasagne, pasta bakes, roast

chicken and potatoes, 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 fan

assisted 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.

Desserts: the fan assisted mode is also perfect for

baking leavened cakes.

Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw

quickly white or red meat and bread by setting the

temperature to 80 °C. To thaw more delicate foods,

set the thermostat to 60°C or use only the cold air

circulation feature by setting the thermostat to 0°C.

TOP OVEN Mode

Position of thermostat knob: between

5050

50°C and

MaxMax

Max.

The top heating element comes on.

This mode can be used to brown food at the end of

cooking.
