Main oven baking guide
The cooking times given below are only
approximate, because the size and type
of cooking dish will influence cooking
times, as will personal preference.
The times given in the following guide
are based on a preheated oven. If the
oven is not preheated you may need
to extend the cooking time.

Because a fan oven has an even
temperature throughout the oven, no
shelf positions have been given,
and there is no need to interchange
dishes onto different shelves part
way through cooking as with a
conventional oven.
