VENTITHERM ® PRECISION FAN COOKING
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however, you may 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. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven
first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the cooking chart. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes, using a
conventional oven.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.

USING VENTITHERM ® PRECISION FAN COOKING

• Pop out and turn the multifunction selector to
Ventitherm ® Precision Fan Cooking.
• Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed.
The temperature will automatically set to 150°C.
• If you wish to alter the set temperature, you may
do so by pushing out and turning the main oven
increase/decrease selector (+/-) until the required
temperature setting is reached.

THINGS TO NOTE

• If it is necessary to reach the required
temperature in a shorter time, the Speedcook
Function can be used. See Speedcook Function
section.
• When the required temperature is reached the
three temperature indicator neons on the timer
display will illuminate and an audible signal will
sound.
• The multifunction selector indicator neon and the
main oven increase/decrease selector indicator
neon will glow.
• The main oven temperature neons will illuminate
until the oven has reached the desired
temperature and then stop. When the oven has
been switched off the bars that are still lit indicate
the remaining residual heat in the oven.
• The cooling fan for the controls may operate after
a time.
• The oven light will illuminate.
• If an automatic programme has been set, the
oven fan and light do not come on until cooking
begins.
• Some internal noise may be heard during
operation. This is quite normal.
