Main Oven - Circulaire Roasting
CIRCULAIRE ROASTING
Circulaire roasting - food is placed on the roasting rack, this allows the oven fan to
circulate the hot air around the food, making it suitable for thin foods, such as chops,
steaks, sausages as well as meat joints and poultry, as it will cook both sides at the
same time. it is possible to cook on any shelf position, as the temperature in the oven
is evenly distributed. Also, the oven heats up more quickly and generally will cook
food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, so pre-heating is not necessary
for most foods. For a guide on “cooking times” and “cooking temperatures” see
“Circulaire Roasting Chart”. If required, circulaire roasting can be timed using the Oven
Timer. Follow the timer instructions before selecting Fan Oven function and the
required temperature.
Note: It is also possible to cook food on the roasting rack on one shelf, while cooking
different types of food at the same temperature, on other shelf positions (three shelves
maximum).
Operating Instructions:
STEP 1. Ensure the Oven Timer is set to manual.
Ensure that the oven shelf is in the position you require.
Place the food centrally on the roasting rack.
Position the roasting rack on top of the grill/meat pan and anti-splash tray.
Place the grill/meat pan centrally on the oven shelf.
Ensure the oven door is fully closed.
STEP 2. Turn the control knob (B) clockwise to the fan oven function.
Turn the control knob (A) clockwise and select the required cooking
temperature. The pilot light (
) will immediately come on and will remain on
until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light will then
automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains
the correct temperature.
STEP 3. After use, turn controls (A) and (B) to the Off (O) position.
Note: At the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the
door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic
of an oven with a good door seal.
