USES OF THE FAN OVEN
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For
recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven
is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals preheat the oven first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 24. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes.
BATCH BAKING
The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
•
Scroll through the main oven function selections
using or until the 'Fan Cooking' oven
neon is illuminated.
•
Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed
and the neon stops flashing. The temperature
will automatically set to 150°C.
•
If you wish to alter the set temperature, you may
do so by pressing or until the required
temperature setting is reached.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically
during cooking showing that the temperature is
being maintained.
2. The oven fan will operate continually during
cooking.
3. The cooling fan for the controls operates after a
period of time. It may run on after the controls
are switched off, until the appliance has cooled.
