Changing the heating-up
phase
With the Fan plus, Auto roast and
Conventional heat functions, the
Heating-up phase will appear with the
following options:
ß Rapid
(Factory default)
The top heating/grill elements, the
ring element and the fan are
switched on at the same time so that
the oven reaches the desired
temperature as quickly as possible.
R shows in the display.
ß Normal
Only the heating elements required
for the cooking function selected are
switched on; see "Functions".
3 shows in the display.
The Rapid heat-up phase should not
be used for some items such as
pizza, biscuits and small cakes
because they will brown too quickly
from the top.
To switch off Rapid heat-up
– For one cooking programme:
Select "Heating-up phase", then
"Normal".
Rapid heat-up is also switched off if
a temperature of less than 100 °C is
set.
– In general:
See "Settings - Heating-up phase".
Pre-heating the oven
Most dishes can be placed in a cold
oven. They will then make use of the
heat produced during the heating
phase.
It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven
in a few instances:
With Fan plus pre-heat the oven:
– pre-heating may be necessary for
foods which cook in less than 20
minutes and for foods such as puff
pastry and yeast mixtures where
instant heat is required to make them
rise quickly.
– for roasting beef/fillet.
With Conventional heat pre-heat the
oven:
– It is usually necessary to pre-heat the
oven.
The Rapid heat-up phase should be
switched off when baking pizza,
biscuits and small cakes. Otherwise
they will brown too quickly from the
top.
To pre-heat the oven:
^ Select the required function and set
the temperature.
^ Wait for the oven to reach the set
temperature.
Once the set temperature is reached,
an audible tone will sound (provided
this is activated - see "Settings -
Volume - Buzzer tones").
^ Then place the food in the oven.
