Your oven has a range of oven
functions for preparing food.
Depending on the function selected,
different heating elements are switched
on and sometimes combined with the
fan (see details in brackets).
The following are selected in
the "Oven functions" menu:
Fan plus
U
(Ring heat e fan)
This function is used for baking and
roasting on different levels at the same
time.
A lower temperature can be selected
than when using Conventional heat
V
,
as the fan distributes the heat to the
food straight away.
Moisture plus
d
(Ring heat e fan + steam
injection system)
For baking and roasting with moisture
injection.
You can use moisture with a different
function.
Intensive bake
O
(Ring heat e fan + bottom heat
element)
For baking cakes with moist toppings.
Intensive bake is not suitable for baking
thin biscuits or for roasting as the juices
will become too dark.
Auto roast
[
(Ring heat e fan)
This is used for roasting.
The oven heats initially to a high
temperature (230 °C) which seals the
meat to keep it succulent and tasty.
As soon as this temperature has been
reached, the oven temperature
automatically drops back down to the
pre-selected temperature for continued
roasting.
Conventional heat
V
(Top heat/grill e bottom heat
element)
For baking and roasting traditional
recipes, preparing soufflés and cooking
at low temperatures.
If using an older recipe or cookbook,
set the oven temperature 10 °C lower
than that recommended. This will not
change cooking times.
