Description of the oven systems

Fan Heat D

This system works by the circulation of heated air.

A fan situated on the back wall of the oven sucks in the air, heats it over a ring element and blows the heated air through the carefully spaced openings in the rear panel of the oven, enabling approx. 20°C lower temperatures to be used than with the Conventional heat- ing system.

The oven does not usually need to be pre-heated as the heated air reaches the food straight away.

Exception: Pre-heating may be neces- sary for foods such as puff pastry and yeast mixtures where instant heat is re- quired to make them rise quickly.

Using the fan heating system you can bake and roast on different levels at the same time.

If a temperature of at least 140°C is se- lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac- tivated automatically.

The "Top Heat" heating element switches in to heat the appliance up more rapidly. This saves energy.

Food which browns quickly should not be placed at the top of the oven when rapid heat up is being used.

Auto Roast E

The oven heats initially to a high tem- perature which seals the meat to keep it succulent and tasty.

As soon as the high temperature has been reached, the oven temperature is automatically returned to the prese- lected setting.

If a temperature of at least 140°C is se- lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac- tivated automatically.

The "Top Heat" heating element switches in to heat the appliance up more rapidly. This saves energy.

Conventional heating A

With the conventional method of heat- ing, radiant heat is directed on the food from above and below. It is useful where a fairly long cooking time is re- quired and a deep colour and good rise are needed.

It is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven when using this method.

If a temperature of at least 150°C is se- lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac- tivated automatically.

The fan and its heating element switch in to heat the appliance up more rap- idly. This saves energy.

More practical advice about these cooking functions is given in the "Baking", "Roasting" and "Grilling" sections of this book and in the Miele cookbook supplied with this oven.
