Oven functions
Off
Selecting this will turn the oven off.
Bake
This is the traditional method of baking. It is best to bake on only one shelf at a time in this
function. Ideal for large cakes and dishes that bake for several hours.
Fan Bake
Ideal for dishes like lasagne that need to brown on top and also single trays of small cakes or
biscuits that bake in less than an hour.
Grill
Grill is the most suitable function for ‘finishing off’ many meals, for example browning the top
of potato gratin and frittata. Use Grill to toast bread or to grill your favourite chicken, fish and
steak. Note: heat levels are from LO (50% power) to HI (100% power), with settings from 1 to 9 in
between. Grill provides instant radiant heat, so the temperature dial halo will stay red.
Fan Grill
Ideal for roasting tender cuts of meat and poultry. Use the lower shelf positions for larger items
eg a whole chicken.
Fan Forced
Great for multi-shelf cooking. The consistent temperature ensures baking is well risen. Cookies
baked on Fan Forced are crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle.
Pastry Bake
Excellent for sweet and savoury foods. Ideal for foods that require base heat for cooking and only
gentle browning on top. Perfect for custard tarts, quiches, pizza and pies.
Roast
No pre-heating of the oven required. The meat is seared during an initial 20-minute grilling
stage, then baked at the set temperature for the rest of the time, producing a tender, juicy, and
flavourful roast. Great for roasting vegetables too.
Rotisserie
Rotisserie is a delicious way to cook meat and poultry. The slowly rotating food is basted
continuously in its own juices, making it tender on the inside and well browned and full of
flavour on the outside. See ‘Using the rotisserie’.
Warm
Use this function to keep cooked food hot and to warm plates and serving dishes. To reheat food
from cold, use a cooking function at 150°C, then switch to Warm set between 70-90°C only when
the food is piping hot. Note: this function is not for cooking food and the temperature cannot be
set higher than 90°C.
This function is also ideal for proving bread dough. Set the temperature to 40 °C.
