Oven functions
Light only
The oven interior light comes on.
Grill with turnspit
This function operates the centre grill element as well as the turnspit motor. An
ideal way to produce a healthy small roast as all the fats are drained whilst
cooking. Always make sure that the oven pan is in place to collect the fats and
meat juices when cooking.
Grilling must always take place with the oven door closed.
Lower heating element only
The element under the floor of the oven operates on its own. The oven, should be
preheated for 15-20 minutes before use. This function is ideal for ‘blind baking’ pastry
cases for quiches and tarts. In this case, the food should be cooked with the oven shelf
on the lowest shelf position.
Traditional cooking
The elements in the roof and floor operate to give a conventional static oven heating
system. The oven should be preheated before use until the temperature indicator light
goes out. It is recommended that food is only placed on one shelf position when
cooking with the conventional heating function. Do not use the lowest or highest shelf
positions or the food may overcook.
Traditional cooking and forced air convection
This kind of cooking is ideal for pizza, lasagne, bread and vegetable dishes.
Forced air convection
The fan and an element behind the rear wall of the oven circulate hot air to give an
even temperature throughout the oven. The oven should be pre-heated before use
until the temperature indicator light goes out. Food can be cooked on several shelf
positions at once, saving both time and energy.
The oven temperature should be reduced by approximately 10% compared to
conventional oven heating systems.
