The ovens
The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will
work. Read the clock section to set the time.
References to 'left-hand' and 'right-hand' ovens apply as viewed
from the front of the appliance.
The left-hand oven is either:
• a programmable fan oven or
• a multi-function oven depending on model.
The right-hand oven is a fan oven.
Fan ovens
Fan ovens circulate hot air continuously, which means
faster, more even cooking. The recommended cooking
temperatures for a fan oven are generally lower than those
for a non-fan oven.
Multifunction ovens
Multi-function ovens have an oven fan and oven fan element,
as well as two extra heating elements. One element is in
the top of the oven and the second is under the oven base.
Take care to avoid touching the top element and element
deflector when placing or removing items from the oven.
The multi-function oven has 3 main cooking functions, fan,
fan assisted and conventional cooking. These functions
should be used to complete most of your cooking.
The browning element and base heat can be used in the
latter part of the cooking process to fine tune the results to
your particular requirements.
Use fanned grilling for all your grilling needs and defrost to
safely thaw small items of frozen food.
Table 3.1 gives a summary of the multi-function modes.
The multi-function oven has many varied uses. We suggest
you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar
with each function. Remember, not all functions will be
suitable for all food types.
