Hints and Tips
Shelf positions are not critical, but make
sure the shelves are evenly spaced.
When cooking more than one dish in the
fan oven, place dishes centrally on the
shelves rather than several dishes on one
shelf.
When the oven is full, you may need to
allow slightly longer cooking time.
When the oven is full of the same food, e.g.
equal trays of small cakes or equal size
victoria sandwich cakes, then they will be
cooked in the same time and removed from
the oven together. When different sizes of
trays or types of food, e.g. biscuits and
cakes are cooked, they will not necessarily
be ready together.
The fan oven can be used to heat foods
through without thawing first, e.g. fruit
tarts, mince pies, sausage rolls, and other
small pastry items. Use a temperature of
190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes
(depending on the quantity of food in the
oven).
The use of too high temperatures can cause
uneven browning. Check with the
recommendations for oven temperatures
given in the cooking charts, but be prepared
to adjust the temperature, if necessary.
Remember to reduce temperatures by
about 20-25°C for your own conventional
recipes.
When roasting do use the trivet in the meat
tin. Fat and meat juices will drain into the
meat tin below and can be used to make
gravy. The trivet also prevents splashes of
fat from soiling the oven interior.
The meat tin should not be placed on a
heated hotplate as this may cause the
enamel to crack.
The Conventional Oven
PRE-SET TEMPERATURE: 200°C
TEMPERATURE SELECTION: 30°C -
250 ° C
When using this setting, heat comes from
both the top and bottom elements. This
allows you to cook on a single level and is
particularly suitable for dishes which require
extra base browning such as quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require
extra top browning also cook well in the
conventional oven. This form of cooking gives
you the opportunity to cook without the fan
in operation.
How to Use the Conventional Oven
1. Switch the oven ON.
2. Select the Conventional Oven Function by
pressing the button Oven function until
the symbol
appears in the display.
3. If necessary adjust temperature setting
using the " + " or " - " buttons.
During cooking, the cooling fan will operate in
the same way as described for the fan oven
function.
