PREHEATING THE OVEN

Your oven can be preheated to a desired temperature prior to convection cooking.

NOTES:

When the oven is preheating, the turntable should be in the oven.

When the oven reaches the desired temperature, the audible signal will sound and the temperature will be displayed in ºC.

Do not press the STOP/CLEAR key after opening and closing the door, as this will cancel the Convection mode.

The preheated temperature will be maintained for approximately 30 minutes.

After this time, preheat will be cancelled.

During preheating and convection cooking, you will hear the cooling fan cycling on and off. This is completely normal and will not affect the cooking.

You can check the actual temperature during preheating by pressing the CONV. (ºC) key. The temperature will appear on the display.

This will not affect the oven operation.

If you prefer not to preheat the oven where recommended in the cookbook section, allow extra cooking time.

Temperature measurements taken whilst the oven is in convection mode will differ from the displayed level. This will not affect the cooking results as long as the operation manual and cookbook section are followed correctly.

Example:

To preheat the oven to 180ºC.

1.Enter the temperature by pressing the CONV. (ºC) key 6 times.
