Fan plus
For baking on several levels
When using Fan plus, reduce the temperatures given for
Conventional heat by about 20 °C.
Conventional heat
For baking traditional recipes, e.g. rich fruit cake and making
soufflés.
Only bake on one level at a time.
Place tray bakes on the middle shelf.
If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven
temperature for Conventional heat 10 °C lower than that
recommended. This will not change cooking durations.
Top heat
Ideal for browning the topping on a dish.
Bottom heat
Use this setting towards the end of baking, to brown the base
of a cake, quiche or pizza.
Intensive bake
For baking cakes with a moist topping , e.g. cheese cake,
fresh fruit cakes, quiche and flans.
Also suitable for items such as pizza without the need to
pre-bake the base.
Use the bottom shelf level.
Cake plus
For creamed mixtures, choux pastry (e.g. eclairs) and frozen
pretzels.
