  • Page 16: Hints And Tips

    HINTS AND TIPS All cooking should be carried out using shelf positions one and two using a cranked shelf. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards. When more space is required, for example when roasting or casseroling, a straight shelf from the main oven may be placed on the second oven base.

    THE MAIN 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 find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.

  • Page 18: Hints And Tips

    HINTS AND TIPS Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards. When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results.
