Operating principles
Heating and cooking in the FAN oven
are obtained in the following ways:
a. by forced convection
A fan sucks in the air contained in the
oven muffle, which sends it through the
circular heating element and then
sends it back through the muffle.
Before the hot air is sucked back again
by the fan to repeat the described
cycle, it envelops the food in the oven,
provoking a complete and rapid cook-
ing.
It is possible to cook several dishes
simultaneously.
b. by radiation
The heat is irradiated by the infra red
grill element.
Defrosting frozen foods
Only the oven fan is on.
To be used with the thermostat knob on
“
● ” because the other positions have no
effect. The defrosting is done by simple
ventilation without heat.
Recommended for:
To rapidly defrost frozen foods; 1 kilogram
requires about one hour.
The defrosting times vary according to the
quantity and type of foods to be defrosted.
Hot air cooking
The circular element and the fan are on.
The heat is diffused by forced convec-
tion and the temperature must be regu-
lated between 50° and 250 °C with the
thermostat knob.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven.
Recommended for:
For foods that must be well done on the
outside and tender or rare on the inside,
i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole
fish, etc.
