FAN BAKE Fan plus top and lower elements
Fan Bake circulates hot air from the top and bottom elements. Food cooks more quickly, so you may need to lower the oven temperature. Good for crisping foods, eg pastry products and slices and also the best method for heating your Pizza Stone.
FAN Fan plus fan element
Heat from the element around the fan is forced throughout the oven. Perfect for multi- level cooking and batch baking, casseroles and baked potatoes.
BAKE Top and lower elements
Bake is the traditional method of cooking. It is best to cook on only one rack at a time in this function. Suitable for delicate food and foods that require long cooking, eg fruit cakes and roasts.
CLASSIC BAKE Lower element
Uses heat from the lower element only. The oven needs to be preheated on Bake or Fan Bake. Use Classic Bake for quiches, slices, anything you want browner on the bottom than the top.
DEFROST Fan only
The fan circulates air around the oven, speeding up the defrosting process by approximately 30%.
GRILL Inner and outer top element
Grill uses all of the top element and is ideal for grilling a large area of food. For best results leave the door open at the first stop position. Grilled vegetables are quick and full of flavour.
ECO GRILL Top inner element
Eco Grill uses the inner area of the top element and is useful when you need to grill single servings or small pieces of food. For best results leave the door open at the first stop position.
FAN GRILL Fan plus top element
Fan Grill circulates hot air from the top element and is excellent for foods that would normally be fried. Large cuts of meat can be cooked using this function with results similar to using a rotisserie. Suitable for dishes such as lasagne and moussaka.
