Convection oven

Using your Range

This function operates the fan and the heating element around it. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly.

Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for multi-rack cooking and is a good ‘all-round’ function. It may be necessary to reduce the temperature by approximately 20°F for recipes previously cooked in a conventional oven.

If you wish to pre-heat the oven, wait until the indicator light has gone out before inserting the food.

Convection broiling

This function operates the fan whilst the top element is on. It produces a more even, less

ﬁerce heat than a conventional broiler. For best results, place the food to be cooked, on a grid over a roasting tin, which should be smaller than a conventional broiler pan. This allows greater air circulation. Thick pieces of meat

or ﬁ sh are ideal for cooking in this way, as the circulated air reduces the ﬁ erceness of the heat from the broiler. The oven door should be kept closed whilst cooking is in progress, so saving energy. You will also ﬁ nd that the food needs to be watched and turned less than for normal broiling. Pre-heat this function before cooking.

Fan assisted oven

This function operates the fan, circulating air heated by the elements at the top and the base of the oven. The combination of fan and conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes this function ideal for cooking large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat roast. It is also possible to bake on two racks at one time, although they will need to be swapped over during the cooking time, as the heat at the top of the oven is greater than at the base, when using this function.

This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an eye on the food cooking until you have become accustomed to this function.

Conventional oven (top and base heat)

This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked on the top rack will brown and crisp faster than on the lower rack, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Convection assisted oven’ function. Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking. This means that foods requiring different temperatures can be cooked together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.

Browning element

This function uses the element in the top of the oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or ﬁ nishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot before switching to the top element.

Base heat

This function uses the base element only. It will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or ﬁ nish off cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower rack. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate warming.

The Browning and Base heat functions are useful additions to your oven, giving you

ﬂexibility to ﬁ nish off items to perfection. With use, you will soon realize how these functions can combine to extend your cooking skills.
