The Ovens
References to 'left-hand' and 'right-hand' ovens apply as
viewed from the front of the appliance.
The left-hand oven is a multifunction oven, while the right-
hand oven is a tall fan oven.
The Multifunction Oven
As well as the oven fan and fan element, multifunction ovens
are fitted with two extra heating elements, one visible in
the top of the oven and the second under the oven base.
Take care to avoid touching the top element and element
deflector when placing or removing items from the ovens.
The multifunction 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.
Table 2.1 gives a summary of the multifunction modes.
The multifunction ovens have 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.
The Fan Oven
The right-hand oven is a fan oven that circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster, more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a fan oven are
generally lower than a conventional oven.
Note: Please remember that all cookers vary so temperatures
in your new ovens may differ to those in your previous
cooker.
Operating the Ovens
Fan Oven
Turn the oven knob to the desired temperature (Fig. 2.15).
The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached
the temperature selected. It will then cycle on and off during
cooking.
Multifunction Oven
The multifunction oven has two controls: a function selector
and a temperature setting knob (Fig. 2.16).
Turn the function selector control to a cooking function. Turn
the oven temperature knob to the temperature required
(Fig. 2.17).
The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached
the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on and off
during cooking.
