GENERAL FEATURES

With your new Multi-Function oven it is possi- ble to cook a variety of food using the 7 dif- ferent cooking functions.

These 7 functions are obtained using a com- bination of the 4 different heating elements plus a defrost function using the fan only.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the MULTI-FUNCTION oven are obtained in the following ways:

a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements.

b. by forced convection

The fan draws in air contained within the oven housing at the rear of the oven and forces it over the circular heating element. The hot air envelops the food in the oven givin faster and more even cooking before it is drawn back into the housing to repeat the cycle. It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously due to the even distribution of heat within the oven.

c. by forced semi-convection

The heat produced by the top and bottom heating elements is distributed throughout the oven by the fan.

d. by radiant heat

The food is grilled by the infra red grill element.

e. by radiant heat and ventilation

The food is grilled by the grill element is distributed throughout the oven

f. by ventilation

14The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat.
