Oven functions
Depending on your model, your oven may have only some or all of the functions below.
See sections ‘Oven cooking tips’ and check the ‘Oven cooking charts’ for the recommended shelf
positions.
ALL MODELS
BAKE
This is the traditional method of cooking. It is most suitable for food that
requires long cooking such as rich fruit cakes and traditional roasts. Heat comes
from the top and bottom elements in the oven. The bottom element is
concealed beneath the oven floor. You will achieve a better result with baking
if the oven is preheated first. Cooking one shelf of food at a time is preferable.
Use FAN FORCED for multi-shelf baking (available in four-function and eight-
function models only).
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. Do not set the temperature
higher than 225
o
C in this function. We recommend you use 225
o
C to grill meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
FOUR-FUNCTION & EIGHT-FUNCTION MODELS ADD
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. Do not set the temperature higher than
200
o
C in this function.
FAN FORCED
Fan forced cooking circulates heat from the element around the fan throughout
the oven. This function is particularly good for multi-shelf cooking, batch baking
or cooking several dishes together. Use also for casseroles and baked vegetables,
as you can place them anywhere in the oven except on the oven floor.
