Operation

Pre-heating

Most dishes can be placed in a cold oven. They will then make use of the heat produced during the heating phase.

It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven in a few instances:

With Fan plus

–pre-heating may be necessary for foods which cook in less than 20 minutes and for foods such as puff pastry and yeast mixtures where instant heat is required to make them rise quickly.

–roasting beef/fillet.

With Conventional heat

–it is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven.

Change the setting for the heating phase from "Rapid" to "Normal" when baking pizza or biscuits and small cakes. As otherwise they will brown too quickly from the top. See "Changing settings - Heating phase".

To pre-heat the oven:

^Select the required function and set the temperature.

^Place the food in the oven once "Heating phase" has disappeared from the display for the first time as the set temperature has now been reached.

Activating moisture reduction

It is a good idea to use this function when cooking items which are moist on the inside but which should be crispy on the outside, e.g. frozen chips, croquettes or pork with crackling.

It is also suitable for deep filled fresh fruit cakes, such as plum or apple cake.

You can activate Moisture reduction with any function.

For best results, activate it at the beginning of the cooking programme.

^Place the food in the oven.

^Select the required function and set the temperature.

^Touch the OK sensor.

The list of options will show in the display.

^Use the ; or ? sensor to highlight "Moist. reduction" and select it with the OK sensor.

^Use the ; or ? sensors to select "On" and confirm your selection with the OK sensor.

The Moisture reduction function needs to be activated individually for each cooking programme.
