conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven fan operate simultaneously, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn the food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen.
With the exception of toast and rare steaks, you can thermally grill all the foods you would normally cook under a conventional grill. Cooking is more gentle, therefore food generally takes a little longer to cook with thermal grilling compared with conventional grilling. One of the advantages is that larger quantities can be cooked at the same time.

Defrosting
The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of defrosting. This function is particularly suitable for defrosting delicate food which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products.

Hints and Tips
On baking:
Cakes and pastries usually require a medium temperature
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the baking time has elapsed.
Shortcrust pastry is baked in a springform tin or on a tray for up to 2/3 of the baking time and then garnished before being fully baked. This further baking time depends on the type and amount of topping or filling. Sponge mixtures must separate with difficulty from the spoon. The baking time would be unnecessarily extended by too much liquid.
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are inserted into the oven at the same time, a shelf level must be left free between the trays.
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are inserted into the oven at the same time, the trays must be swapped and turned around after about 2/3 of the baking time.
