THE MAIN OVEN


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

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.

BATCH BAKING

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

USING THE MAIN OVEN

Turn the main oven temperature control to the
required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

The indicator neon will glow. It may turn ON and
OFF during use to show that the setting is being
maintained.

The oven fan will operate.



TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES


The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt
and safety stop mechanism will be affected.
