THE FAN OVEN

USES OF THE FAN OVEN

The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.

The advantages of fan oven cooking are:

PREHEATING

The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 - 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first.

COOKING TEMPERATURES

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures recommended in the chart on page 28 until you are familiar with the lower temperatures associated with Fan oven cooking. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes.

BATCH BAKING

The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.

HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN

1.Turn the Selector to Fan Oven.

2.Turn the oven temperature control to the required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

The oven light will come on when the Selector is set.

The cooling fan for the controls will operate when the Selector is turned. See page 7 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan.

The main oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature. It will turn on and off periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained.

The Selector indicator neon will glow throughout cooking.
