USES OF THE FAN OVEN
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For
recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven
is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven
first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 27. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes,
using a conventional oven.
BATCH BAKING
The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
· Turn the main oven function selector to fan oven.
· Turn the main oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
The main oven indicator neon will glow until the oven
has reached the desired temperature and then go
out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically during
cooking showing that the oven temperature is being
maintained.
The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
The cooling fan for the controls operates after a
period of time.
The internal oven light will come on.
If an automatic programme has been set the oven
fan and light do not come on until cooking begins.
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt
and safety stop mechanism will be affected. Only
use straight shelves in the main oven.
USING THE TELESCOPIC RUNNERS
(WHERE FITTED)
1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back
into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf.
2. Holding the front edge of the shelf with both
hands, place the rear shelf forms over the
telescopic runners.
3. Slide the shelf into position, lifting slightly at the
front so that the shelf locates into the retaining
hooks.
To remove, raise the front edge and withdraw the
shelf.
Ensure the shelf is positively located before using.
Note
Should you wish to purchase a telescopic runner kit,
this can be ordered from your local Service Centre by
quoting part number (BAZD02).
