Operating the Oven

The multi-function oven has two controls: a function selector

and a temperature setting knob (Fig.2-10).

Turn the function selector control to a cooking function.

Fig.2-11 shows the control set for conventional oven

cooking.

Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature you

need. The oven heating light will glow until the oven has

reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on

and o during cooking as the oven maintains the selected

temperature (Fig.2-12).

Multi-function oven modes (Fig.2-13)

Thaw and Serve

This function operates the fan(s) to circulate cold air

only (Fig.2-14). No heat is applied. This enables small

items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of

meat, sh and poultry to be defrosted.

Thawing in this way speeds up the process and protects the

food from contamination. Pieces of meat, sh and poultry

should be placed on a rack, over a tray to catch any drips. Be

sure to wash the rack and tray after thawing.

Note: Thaw with the oven door closed and the oven light OFF.

Large items, such as whole chickens and meat roasts should

not be thawed in this way. We recommend this be carried out

in a refrigerator.

Thawing should not be carried out in a warm oven.

Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are completely

thawed before cooking.

Convection Oven

This function operates the fans and the heating

element around them (Fig.2-15). An even heat is

produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook

large amounts quickly.

Convection 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

(10°C) for recipes previously cooked in a conventional oven.

If you wish to preheat the oven, wait until the indicator light

has gone out before inserting the food.

To cook on 3 levels, use racks 1, 3 and 5. Use your broiler pan

and rack as an extra level.

Convection Broiling

This function operates the fan while the top element

is on (Fig.2-16). It produces a more even, less erce

heat than a conventional broiler. For best results,

place the food to be grilled, on the grid in the pan provided.

Thick pieces of meat or sh are ideal for cooking in this

way, as the circulated air reduces the erceness of the heat

from the broiler. The oven door should be kept closed while

cooking is in progress, so saving energy. You will also nd

that the food needs to be watched and turned less than for

normal broiling.
