Operating Instructions
Oven Functions
Conventional Cooking Function
This function, Conventional Cooking, allows heat to radiate evenly from the lower and upper
elements into the oven ensuring even cooking of both sides of the food. Adjust the function
control so it indicates the Conventional Cooking function symbol. Adjust the thermostat control
knob of your oven to a temperature recommended on the cooking table for the cooking operation
you wish to perform. Preheating of the oven for about 10 minutes is recommended. Place food in
a suitable container, then place into oven and cook for the recommended time. This function is
preferred for making cakes (cupcakes, other cakes and sponges), biscuits, pastry, baked pasta
(e.g. lasagne), casseroles and moist dishes, roasts and oven chips.
After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature control knobs and cancel the timer
program if in use. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Fan Assist Function
This is the function where the air coming from the lower and upper heating elements is circulated
into the oven by the fan motor and blade
Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Fan Assist Function symbol and adjust the
oven timer to the recommended time for cooking. Adjust the thermostat control knob to the
temperature required on the cooking table for the Fan Assist Function and preheat oven for 10
minutes. Based on the conventional cooking function, this combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced air circulation of the
heat throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat
to penetrate into the food. Food baked on this function such as pastry often brown faster than on
convection function alone.
After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature control knobs and cancel the timer
program if in use. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Grill Function
This function is used for grilling. Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Mid-Grill
function symbol and adjust the oven timer to the recommended time for cooking. Set the oven’s
thermostat control knob to the required temperature. After a preheating period of 10 minutes, put
your food into the oven. For grilling, put the food on the grill rack and sit into the tray. Place the
tray on one of the highest shelves. Placing the rack within the oven tray provided will ensure that
any marinade, fat or oil dropping from the food will be collected. When grilling, the oven door
must be closed. On this function, the middle heating elements/coils of the grill operate.
This setting is ideal for toasting bread, cheese melts and melting cheese topped dishes or
finishing off a dish to lightly brown on the surface. Also used for herb and garlic bread.
After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature control knobs and cancel the timer
program if in use. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place it in a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work near with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
