The main oven

The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food. The advantages of fan oven cooking are:

Batch baking

The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.

Preheating

The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however, you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.

Cooking temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking chart. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C – 25°C for your own recipes, using a conventional oven.

To fit the main oven shelves

The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front to that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf clear. To install a shelf, reverse the above steps.

Using the main oven

Turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting.
