THE MAIN FAN OVEN (2590S GOURMET ONLY)
USES OF THE FAN OVEN
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating, however, you may find you 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 25. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking on three shelves.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
Turn the oven temperature control to the required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
1.The main oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained.
2.The internal oven light will come ON when the temperature is set.
