Thermofan  Baking guide 

• 

 

Thermofan 

baking may be done on one 

or  two  baking  trays  depending  on 
volume. 

• 

Large  items

:  One  or  two  cake  tins  may 

be placed as shown below and as close to 
the door as possible. If one tin is used , it 
should be placed centrally left to right . 

• 

Small items: 

The entire area of each tray 

may  be  utilised.  Avoid  any  time  delays 
between positioning the two trays. 

• 

All  ovens  extract  a  certain  amount  of 
moisture  from  the  food  being  cooked. 
The    greater  capacity  of  the 

Thermofan

 

oven

 allows more food to be cooked and 

thus more moisture may be released. This 
is  normal  and  is  not  detrimental  to  the 
food or the oven. 

 
 
Caution: Thermofan baking relies on 

good contact between the bottom of the 
cake tin and the oven tray. Do not use 
spring form baking tins with a raised 
bottom.  The lack of contact will  cause 
the bottom of the cake to be 
underdone. These tins may be used on 
a wire shelf  where no insulating air 
space is created. 

5 Turbo grilling. 

For meat and fish

 

• 

The oven door must remain closed 
when Turbo grilling. 

• 

Use only a wire shelf when grilling as the 
intense heat could warp the baking trays. 

• 

Turbo grilling is most suitable for meat. 
As drying out and shrinkage is reduced. 

• 

Set the 

multifunction knob 

to 

turbo 

grill

• 

Set the 

oven thermostat 

to the 

 

grill 

position. 

 

• 

Pre-heat the grill element for about 5 
minutes 

• 

Place the food on the grid/roast pan  and 
place this on the wire shelf  near to the 
grill element. 

• 

Monitor the grilling process to avoid 
burning the food. 

• 

Care must be taken not to touch the grill 
element while handling food in the oven. 
If necessary, partially withdraw the shelf 
to improve access. 

• 

After completion, return the 

multifunction selector 

and the 

oven 

thermostat 

to the 

OFF

 position in an 

anticlockwise direction. 

 

6 Conventional  grilling. 

• 

The oven door must remain 
partially open ( about 80mm.) when  
grilling. 

• 

Use only a wire shelf when grilling as the 
intense heat could warp the baking tray. 

• 

Set the 

multifunction knob 

to 

conventional grill.

 

• 

Set the 

oven thermostat 

to the 

 

grill 

position. 

 

• 

Operating instructions are otherwise the 
same as those for turbo grilling 
mentioned previously.

 

 

Accessible parts become hot during baking 
and grilling. Always use oven gloves when 
handling food in the oven and keep 
children away when the oven is in use.
