USING THE OVEN FOR FAN COOKING
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly and generally cooks food at a
lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary.
For guides on “pre-heating”, “cooking temperatures” and “cooking times” see
“Oven Temperature Charts” later in book.
OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN
Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution
of heat in the oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.
Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven
for cooking.
OVEN UTENSILS
Do Not Use: Meat Pans larger than
–
375mm x 300mm (15”x12”)
Baking Trays larger than
–
325mm x 250mm (13”x10”)
FAN OVEN OPERATION
Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may
be necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10
o
C. It may also be
necessary to increase or decrease cooking times.
DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in
use as the surfaces get extremely hot.
Note: When you have finished using your cooker, always return the controls to their OFF
(O) position. At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam
when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal
characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.
OVEN TEMPERATURE & FUNCTION CONTROL
18
C
TIMER
B
Step 1 Check that the timer is in manual.
Step 2 Place the shelf/shelves in the correct position (see Oven Temperature
Charts.
Step 3 Place the food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully closed.
Step 4 Select the required cooking temperature (80 to 230
o
C) by turning control (B)
clockwise. The pilot light (
●
) will immediately come on, and remain on
until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light will then
automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains
the correct temperature.
