Using the Main Oven for Fan Cooking
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly and generally cooks food at a
lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary. For
guides on ‘pre-heating’, ‘cooking temperatures’ and ‘cooking times’ see “Oven
Temperature Charts” later in this book.
Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of
heat in the main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large quantities
of food. (NB. Maximum 3 shelves in the main oven).
Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking.
Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be
necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be
necessary to increase or decrease cooking times.
DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use as the
surfaces get extremely hot.
MAIN OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN
DO NOT use: Meat Pans larger than - 375mm x 300mm (15"x12")
Baking Trays larger than - 325mm x 250mm (13"x10")
MAIN OVEN UTENSILS
When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be
necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few
minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and
larger mass of food. Baking trays shold have an even gap around the oven.
