Oven functions
Fan Forced
fan and rear element
By using the central rear heating element and fan, hot air is blown into the cavity, providing a
consistent temperature at all levels, making it perfect for multi-shelf cooking.
Trays of cookies cooked on different shelves are crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle.
Meat and poultry are deliciously browned and sizzling while remaining juicy and tender.
Casseroles are cooked to perfection and reheating is quick and efficient.
When multi-shelf cooking it is important to leave a gap between trays (eg use shelves 3 & 5) to
allow the air to move freely. This enables the browning of foods on the lower tray.
If converting a recipe from Bake to Fan Forced, we recommend that you decrease the bake time
or decrease the temperature by approximately 20°C.
For items with longer bake times (eg over an hour) it may be necessary to decrease both time
and temperature.
Ideal for multi-shelf cooking biscuits, cookies, scones, muffins and cupcakes.
Fan Grill
fan plus upper inner and outer elements
This function uses the intense heat from the upper elements for top browning and the fan to
ensure even cooking of foods.
Meat, poultry and vegetables cook beautifully; food is crisp and brown on the outside while the
inside remains moist and tender.
Ideal for whole chicken, tenderloin of beef or grilling your favourite chicken, fish and steak.
