USES OF THE MAIN OVEN
The Fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking
larger quantities of food or for weekend or celebration
meals.
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 chart on page 19
until you are familiar with the lower temperature
associated with Fan oven cooking. As a guide
reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own
recipes, using a conventional oven.
BATCH BAKING
The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels,
especially useful when batch baking.
HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN
1. Turn the Fan oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
·
The oven light will come on when the control is
turned.
·
The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a time. See page 6 for further details on the
operation of the cooling fan.
·
The Main Fan oven indicator neon will glow until
the oven has reached the desired temperature. It
will turn on and off periodically during cooking
showing that the temperature is being
maintained.
·
If an automatic programme has been set, the
oven fan and oven light do not come on until the
cook time begins.
