Since the fan oven heats up food more quickly than a
conventional oven, preheating the oven is often unnecessary.
However, for foods such as bread, scones and Yorkshire
pudding the oven should be preheated for about 15 minutes
at the gas mark you require for cooking.
Ensure that when selecting shelf positions, you leave enough
space around the food to allow air to circulate. For best
results use the following guide:–
One shelf – any shelf position.
Two shelves – positions 2 and 4.
Shelf position 1 is at the top and shelf position 6 is at the
bottom.
