The Fan Oven
The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.
The advantage of cooking with this function is energy saving through:
✓Faster Preheating
As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may find that you need to allow an extra

The cooling fan
During cooking the cooling fan will operate continually.
It may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on where the oven has only been used for a short time.
