Using The Main Oven

Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a convection oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary. For guides on “pre- heating”, “cooking temperatures” and “cooking times”, see “Oven Temperature Charts” in General Information book.

NOTE: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary

to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be necessary

to increase or decrease cooking times.

POINTS TO REMEMBER ABOUT FAN OVENS

Fan ovens heat up quicker than convection ovens, so pre - heating is often unnecessary. Cooking can be carried out at slightly lower temperatures.

Identical cooking results can be achieved no matter what shelf is used.

MAIN OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN

Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat in the main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced. The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large quantities of food. (N.B. Maximum 3 shelves in the main oven).

Food or utensils must never be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking.

DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the oven is in use

as the surfaces get extremely hot.

MAIN OVEN UTENSILS

Do not use: Meat pans larger than 375mm x 300mm (15” x 12”)

Baking Trays larger than 325mm x 250mm (13” x10”)

TEMPERATURE & TIME

When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven.

SETTING THE MAIN OVEN

Step 1 Check that the timer (G) is in manual.

Place the shelf in the correct position (see Main Oven Temperature Charts in General Information book)

Step 2 Select the required cooking temperature using control (F) clockwise (see Main Oven Temperature Charts in General Information book). The pilot light ( ● ) will immediately come on, and stay on until the oven reaches the required temperature.. The light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.

Step 3 When the oven has reached the required temperature, place the food on the shelf (positioned as shown in the Main Oven Temperature Charts in General Information

book) and close the oven door.

Step 4 When you have finished, turn the control knob to the OFF position (O).

When you open the oven door during cooking a momentary puff of steam may appear, this is NOT a fault. It is perfectly normal and is the sign of a good door seal.
