Cooking functions
Depending on your model, your cooker may have a variety of cooking functions.
Before cooking on FAN or BAKE functions, check the ‘Cooking charts’ for the recommended shelf
positions.
Fan cooking
Fan functions allow you to cook individual foods or several foods on different shelves and
can successfully be used for most foods. A fan circulates air throughout the oven, distributing
temperature more evenly.
Your oven may have some of the following cooking functions:
FAN BAKE
A separate fan at the rear of the oven circulates hot air from the top and bottom
elements around the oven. The fan tends to dry the surface of the food
being cooked, which makes it suitable for crisping foods, eg slices, pastries and
oven- roasted vegetables. FAN BAKE can be used at a low temperature (50 °C) for
drying fruit, vegetables and herbs.
FAN FORCED
Multi-level fan forced cooking circulates heat from a fan element around the
fan throughout the oven. This function is particularly good for multi-
shelf cooking, batch baking or cooking several dishes together. Use FAN FORCED
for casseroles and baked vegetables, as you can place them anywhere in the
oven except on the oven floor.
FAN GRILL
The fan circulates heat from the grill element around the oven. FAN GRILL is
suitable for foods you would normally fry, eg sausages and meatballs. It also
cooks larger cuts of meat and whole chickens well, giving a result that
is similar to a rotisserie. Fan grilling is carried out with the door closed, and the
oven does not need to be preheated.
GRILL
GRILL cooks a large area of food by using heat from the upper element and is
suitable for family meals or larger amounts of food. To use the grill, select GRILL
or ECO GRILL using the function knob. Set the required heat using the
temperature knob. The hottest temperature is achieved at HI. We recommend
you use this temperature to grill meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
