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.

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.

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures
than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking
chart. Remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-
25°C for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.

The fan oven has uniform heating on all shelf 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.

• The oven light will come on when the oven function
control knob is set.
• The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
• The thermostat control light will remain on until the
correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on and
off to show the temperature is being maintained.

During cooking the cooling fan will operate continually.
It may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the
controls cool. This is quite normal.
NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the
oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not
switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on
where the oven has only been used for a short time.

Shelf positions are not critical, but make sure the shelves are
evenly spaced.
When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place
dishes centrally on the shelves rather than several dishes on
one shelf.
When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly longer
cooking time.
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.
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).
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, if necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures
by about 20-25°C for your own conventional recipes.
When roasting do use the trivet in the meat tin. Fat and
meat juices will drain into the meat tin below and can be
used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents splashes of fat
from soiling the oven interior.
The meat tin should not should not should not should not should not be placed on a heated hotplate as
this may cause the enamel to crack.
