Light only
The oven interior light comes on.
Base heat plus fan
The fan operates with the element under
the floor of the oven. The oven should
be pre-heated before use until the
temperature indicator light goes out.
This function is ideal for baking quiches
and pastry tarts so that the base of the
item cooks and crisps. In this case, the
food should be cooked with the oven
shelf on the lowest shelf position.
Conventional oven(top and base heat)
This function combines the heat from the
top and base elements. It is particularly
suitable for roasting and baking pastry,
cakes and biscuits.
The oven should be pre-heated before
use until the temperature indicator light
goes out. It is recommended that food is
only placed on one shelf position when
cooking with the conventional heating
function. Do not use the lowest or
highest shelf positions or the food may
overcook.
Fan assisted oven
This function operates the fan,
circulating air heated by the elements at
the top and the base of the oven. The
combination of fan and conventional
cooking (top and base heat) makes this
function ideal for cooking large items
that need thorough cooking, such as a
large meat roast. It is also possible to
bake on two shelves at one time,
although they will need to be swapped
over during the cooking time, as the heat
at the top of the oven is greater than at
the base, when using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking;
keep an eye on the food cooking until
you have become accustomed to this
function.
Single Circuit Grill
The centre of the grill element in the
roof of the oven operates. The oven
should be pre-heated for 5-10 minutes
before use. The oven pan should be used
on one of the upper shelf positions. Fit
the handle when sliding the oven pan in
or out of the oven. Grilling must always
take place with the oven door closed in
order to ensure correct performance of
this function. Check your food regularly
to avoid over cooking.
Dual Circuit Grill
Same procedure as single circuit grill,
but the whole grill element operates
giving you a larger area for grilling.
Fanned grilling
This function operates the fan whilst the
top grill element is on. It produces a
more even, less fierce heat than a
conventional grill. For best results, place
the food to be grilled, on a grid over a
roasting tin, which should be smaller
than a conventional grill pan. This
allows greater air circulation. Thick
pieces of meat or fish are ideal for
grilling in this way, as the circulated air
reduces the fierceness of the heat from
the grill. The oven door should be kept
closed whilst grilling is in progress, so
