OVEN LAMP

Only the oven light comes on. It remains on in all the cooking functions.

BAKE

The upper and lower heating elements come on. BAKE is the traditional method of cooking. It
is best to cook on only one shelf at a time in this function. Ideal for large cakes and dishes that
bake for several hours.

GRILL

The grill at the top of the oven comes on. Use with the oven door closed. If you set the
temperature between 175°C and 225°C, lower it to 175°C or below after 15 minutes. For best
results, use the topmost shelf position when you want quick browning (eg toast).

DEFROST

Only the oven fan comes on. Use with the temperature knob set to O. The fan circulates air
around the oven, speeding up the defrosting process by approximately 30%.
Note: this function is not for cooking food.

FAN FORCED

The circular heating element and the fan come on. The oven set on FAN FORCED can cook
several different foods together. Use FAN FORCED for multi-shelf cooking.

FAN GRILL

Both the grill and the fan come on. Use with the oven door closed and the temperature set to a
maximum of 200°C. Ideal for roasting tender cuts of meat and poultry. Use lower shelf positions
for larger items eg a whole chicken.

WARM

Use to keep cooked food hot or to warm plates and serving dishes. Set the oven temperature
between 70°C and 100°C. To reheat food from cold, use BAKE, FAN FORCED or FAN BAKE and
change to WARM only when the food is piping hot, as this function will not bring cold food up to
a temperature high enough ko kill any harmful bacteria.

FAN BAKE

The upper and lower heating elements and the fan come on. Ideal for dishes like lasagne that
need to brown on top and also single trays of small cakes or biscuits that bake in less than an
hour.

Important!

Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after cooking or
defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take particular
care during warmer weather.
