THINGS TO NOTE

1) The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven

has reached the desired temperature and then
go out. It will cycle ON and Off periodically during
cooking showing that the temperature is being
maintained.

2) The oven fan will operate continually during

cooking.

3) The cooling fan for the controls operates after a

period of time.

TO FIT THE 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. Only use
straight shelves in the oven.

USES OF THE FAN OVEN

PREHEATING

The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however, you may find you 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.

COOKING TEMPERATURES

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 24. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C - 25°C for your own
recipes.

BATCH BAKING

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