MULTIFUNCTION ELECTRIC OVEN MODE
Multifunction Electric Oven - some models
Remove grill tray. Choose a function on the selector then
position the thermostat knob to desired temperature & wait
until the thermostat indicator light goes off, then introduce
the food to be cooked. Below is a description of each of the
functions-
Oven light
- the oven light switches on and will stay
on as long as the oven is in operation.
Defrosting -
the fan switches on without any heating.
Food defrosting times reduce by approximately 1/3.
Static convection mode (conventional cooking) -
heat supplied from above and below. The oven must
be preheated before food is placed inside. Static
convection is ideal for cooking confectionery (dry-thin),
Pizzas and bread. Characteristics of static cooking:
Heat supplied from above and below, cooking possible
on one shelf only, low moisture removal.
Fan Forced
- the circular heating element and the
fan come into operation and the heat is distributed
evenly to all levels of use. Various dishes can be
cooked on different shelves. The oven must be
preheated before food is placed inside. Fan mode is
ideal for cooking confectionery (soft-thick), large
amounts of food, cooking different dishes together.
Characteristics of fan cooking: Heat supplied from
every direction, cooking possible on several shelves,
high moisture removal, defrosting possible with or
without heat.
Central Grill
- used for small amounts of food (low
energy consumption). Closed door grilling at all times.
Double Grill
- for grilling food that occupies a large
surface. Closed door grilling at all times.
Double Grill with Fan
- the action of the fan
combined with the powerful action of the two grill
elements is ideal for cooking large pieces of food.
Closed door grilling at all times.
Bottom Element with Fan
- the heat from below is spread
evenly through the oven for slow, gentle cooking.
Fan Assist
- circulates hot air from the top to the bottom
element - melt the cheese on the pizza and create a
crisp base.
N.B:
The thermostat pilot light switches on and off during
cooking to show that the heating cycles are taking place
properly. For Static and fan forced mode, the oven must
always be preheated. For optimum results, try to open the
oven door as little as possible, opening the door lowers the
temperature suddenly and affects the thermostat cycles.
When cooking on different shelves simultaneously, put all
containers in the centre of their shelves.
IMPORTANT:
Never cook on the bottom base panel.
