Light
When you turn the control knob to this position, the light will
be on for all the following operations.
Defrost
The air at ambient temperature is distributed inside the
oven for defrosting food very quickly
.
Conventional cooking
Top and bottom heating elements are used together. Preheat
the oven for about ten minutes.
Warning: remember ovens get hot; some parts naturally
become very hot, notably the glass oven door and the
protective strip. Keep children away from oven at all times and
warn them about the danger.
This method is ideal for all traditional roasting
and baking.
For sealing red meats, roast beef, leg of lamb game,
bread, foil
-
wrapped food
and
flaky pastry. Mid shel
f
position
is
recommended.
Fan assist multilevel oven
Cooking of similar or different foods placed on different
shelves (up to 2 levels at a time).
Fan cooking
Both top and bottom heating elements are used and the fan
circulates the air inside the oven. Recommended for
poultry, pastries, fish
and vegetables. Heat penetrates the
food better and both the cooking and preheating times
are reduced. Different foods can be cooked at the same time
in one or more positions. This function provides even heat
distr
i
bution. Allow about ten minutes extra when cooking
foods
or more dishes
at the same time.
Lower element
Using the lower element. Ideal for cooking all pastry
based dishes. This allows you to cook dry
pastry without
over cooking the filling. Use this for flans, quiches, tarts,
pâté and any cooking that
needs more heat and
radiation from below.
Grill
Caution: In this function the temperature control knob must
be set from 50°C to Grill position. Using the top level element.
Five minutes preheating is required to get the element hot.
Keep
the door closed
when using the grill.
Fan assisted grilling
Caution: In this function the temperature control knob must
be set from 50°C to Gril position. The top heating element is
used in conjunction with the fan circulating the air inside
the oven. Ideal for cooking thick food stuffs, whole pieces
of meat such as roast pork, poultry, etc. Preheating is
necesary for red meats but not for white meats. Place the
foo
d
to be grilled directly on the shelf centrally, at the
middle level. Slide the driptray under the shelf to collect the
juices. Make sure that the food is not too close to the grill.
Turn the food over halfway through cooking.
Rotisserie (
for some models only
)
The top heating element is used in conjunction
with the rotisserie providing the real flavour of a
traditional roast.
GUIDE FOR CONVENTIONAL COOKING (Bake)
(Outer ring of upper electric element and lower electric
element ON) The following Cooking Guides give the
recommended shelf positions (counted from the bottom),
thermostat settings and approximate cooking times for a
range of baked items, using the conventional oven, using one
tray only. Cooking results are a matter of personal preference
and may easily be adjusted to suit individual requirements by
slight adjustment of the temperature and or cooking time.
