C MAIN OVEN TEMPERATURE

Using the Main Oven for Fan Cooking

Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly and generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary.

Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements it may be

necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be necessary to increase

or decrease cooking times.

Main Oven Shelf Positions for Fan Oven

Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat in the main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.

The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large quantities of food.

Note: Maximum of 2 shelves in the main oven.

Food or utensils should NEVER be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking.

DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use, as the

surfaces get extremely hot .

Important:

Always remove the grill pan handle from the grill pan, when the pan is being used for oven cooking.

Always use oven gloves when basting, turning or removing food from the oven.

Main oven Utensils

Do not use:

Meat pans larger than

-

375mm x 300mm (15”x12”)

 

Baking Trays larger than

-

325mm x 250mm (13”x10”)

Temperature and Time

When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven.

Step 1 Check that the timer is in manual.

CONTROL AND GRILL SELECT

Step 2 Place the shelf/shelves in the correct position (see Main Oven Temperature Charts.

Step 3 Place the food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully closed. Step 4 Select the required cooking temperature (90˚ to 230˚C) by turning control (C)

clockwise. The pilot light will immediately come on, and will remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.

Note: When you have finished using your cooker, always return the controls to their off () position. At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.
