Operating your Pronto Convectionand Rotisserie Oven cont’d

If baking recipes other than those provided with this instruction book, it is recommended that oven temperatures for the ‘Bake’ function are reduced by approximately 20-30°C. As the Pronto Convection Oven is fan assisted, reducing the temperature will prevent excess browning on top of foods before they are fully cooked. The recipes in this instruction book have been adjusted with this in mind.
