Oven controls and use
Cooking function knob
To set the function, turn the cooking function knob to the required function.
Each of the oven functions uses different elements within the oven to offer you the best choice of cooking every time. These
are explained below:
Defrost
Using the fan only this oven function circulates the air around the oven cavity, speeding up the natural
defrost process (1kg takes approximately one hour, depending on the type of food).
Fan Oven
Using the circular element and the fan with a temperature between 50°C and 250°C, this cooking function
blows the air into and around the oven cavity. Temperatures are achieved quicker, reducing or even removing
the need for preheating. Both cooking temperatures and cooking times can be reduced for a more energy
efficient cooking programme.
Full Grill
This function radiates the heat from the grill element and the top element.
This fully temperature variable grill is ideal for grilling a full family meal. It can be set between 50°C and
250°C maximum.
Half Grill
This function radiates the heat from the grill element.
This fully temperature variable grill can be set between 50°C and 250°C maximum.
For each grill function please note:
•
Always grill with the oven door closed.
•
Put the grill pan as close to the grill as possible.
•
Do not grill for more than 30 minutes at a time.
•
Preheat the grill for up to five minutes with the oven door closed.
