The air inside the oven is heated by the element around
the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates
hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.
The advantages of cooking with this function are:
Faster Preheating
As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not
usually necessary to preheat the oven although you
may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes
on cooking times. For recipes which require higher
temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is
preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles,
etc.
Lower Temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking
chart or remember to reduce temperatures by about
20-25°C for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.
Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner positions.
This means that batches of the same food can be
cooked in the oven at the same time. However, the top
shelf may brown slightly quicker than the lower one.
This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours
between dishes.
How to use the Fan Oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to .
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required.
THINGS TO NOTE: During cooking, the cooling fan and
the thermostat control light will operate in the same way
as described for the conventional oven function.

This chart is intended as a guide only. It may be
necessary to increase or decrease the temperature
to suit your individual requirements. Only experience
will enable you to determine the correct setting for
your personal requirements.
When roasting, ensure the meat is cooked thoroughly,
use a meat thermometer if preferred to check the
centre temperature has reached the required tempe-
rature (see table below).

Cooking Chart
l
Runner positions are not critical, but make sure the
shelves are evenly spread.
l
When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven,
place dishes centrally on the shelves rather than
several dishes on one shelf.
l
When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly
longer cooking time.
l
A shelf may be placed on the floor of the oven. Place
dishes on a shelf in this position rather than on the
oven base, to allow air circulation around the food.
l
When the oven is full of the same food, e.g. equal trays
of small cakes or equal size victoria sandwich cakes,
then they will be cooked in the same time and removed
from the oven together. When different sizes of trays
or types of food, e.g. biscuits and cakes are cooked,
they will not necessarily be ready together.
l
The fan oven can be used to heat foods through without
thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies, sausage rolls,
and other small pastry items. Use a temperature of
190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes (depending on the
quantity of food in the oven).
l
The use of too high temperatures can cause uneven
browning. Check with the recommendations for oven
temperatures given in the cooking charts, but be
prepared to adjust the temperature by 10°C if
necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by
about 20-25°C for your own conventional recipes.
l
The meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate or burner as this may cause the enamel to
crack.
