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 heating 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 necessary for foods which cook in less than 20 minutes and for foods such as puff pastry and yeast mixtures where instant heat is required to make them rise quickly.

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

Auto Roast E

The oven heats initially to a high temperature (230 °C) which seals the meat to keep it succulent and tasty. As soon as this temperature has been reached, the oven temperature automatically drops back down to the pre-selected setting.

Conventional heating A

With the conventional method of heating, radiant heat is directed onto the food from above and below. It is useful where a fairly long cooking time

is required and a deep colour and good rise are needed.

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

Grill n

This will glow red a few minutes after switching it on and is then ready for use.

The grill element is thermostatically controlled and at times during grilling will not glow red. This is quite normal.

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the door shut before grilling.

Fan Grill N

The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by the fan on the rear wall of the oven. This enables a lower temperature to be selected than for conventional grilling.

The grill element is thermostatically controlled and at times during grilling will not glow red. This is quite normal.

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the door shut before grilling.

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.
