Understanding your oven functions

Your oven will have a selection of the following functions.
Refer to "Description of your appliance" to confirm what
functions are available to you.

Large oven

Rapid Heat

Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan as well
as the smaller element above the food. This allows you to
preheat your oven 30% quicker than with standard "Bake".
"Rapid heat" is ideal for cooking frozen pre-cooked foods
such as savoury pastries, pizzas, mini meals (TV dinners),
meat pies and fruit pies. Simply place the food in the oven
straight from the freezer and heat – ideal for busy people.
Air Fry
Air fry enables advanced convection cooking function
without having to turn the food, giving crispy great
tasting results in a shorter time without all the oil. This is
suitable for french fries, chicken wings, nuggets and similar
products.
Fan Forced (Fan Bake for WVEP618 model)
Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan. This
fan circulates the hot air around the oven cavity so that
you can put your food in different places in the oven
and still cook them at the same time. You can use the
"Fan Forced" function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating
cooked foods, pastries and complete oven meals. It will
cook at a lower temperature and be faster than baking.
Please note that some variation in browning is normal.
Bake
Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below
the food. The bottom element is a clean heat element and
is below the floor of the oven. Both elements are controlled
by the thermostat and will turn on and off to maintain
the set temperature. You can use the "Bake" function
for a single tray of biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices,
casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.
Steam Assisted Cooking (WVEP618 model only)
Perfect for all kinds of meat, poultry and fish dishes. The
hot air ensures the outside of the food is sealed whilst
the steam keeps the inside tender. Steam comes from the
outlet pipe and heat comes from the element surrounding
the fan. This fan circulates the hot air and steam around
the oven cavity so that you can position the food
anywhere in the oven. The browning of meat or fish will
be perfect, with the best cooking result at the core. Shape
will be preserved and evenly firm. Vegetables will retain a
high level of nutrients.
NOTE: Steam will only start if the water tank has been
filled and the oven temperature is above 130°C.
Base Heat
Heat comes from the element below the food. The
element is controlled by the thermostat and will turn on
and off to maintain the set temperature. The "Base heat"
function can be used to add extra browning to the bases
of pizzas, pies and pastries. Cook in the lower half of the
oven when you are using only one shelf. For best results,
use silver or shiny trays.
