    Oven functions Bake upper outer and lower elements Heat comes from both the upper and lower elements. The fan is not used in this function. Ideal for cakes and foods that require baking for a long time or at low temperatures. This function is not suitable for multi-shelf cooking.
  • Page 20 Oven functions Fan Forced fan and rear element By using the central rear heating element and fan, hot air is blown into the cavity, providing a consistent temperature at all levels, making it perfect for multi-shelf cooking. Trays of cookies cooked on different shelves are crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle. Meat and poultry are deliciously browned and sizzling while remaining juicy and tender.
  • Page 21 Oven functions Maxi Grill upper inner and outer elements Intense radiant heat is delivered from both top elements. There are 9 steps between ‘Lo’ and ‘Hi’ (100% power). Preheating is not essential although some people prefer to allow the element to heat for a few minutes before they place food under the grill.
  • Page 22 Oven functions Pastry Bake fan plus lower element The fan circulates heat from the lower element throughout the oven. Excellent for cooking pizza as it crisps the base beautifully without overcooking the topping. Ideal for foods such as sweet and savoury pastry foods and delicate foods that require some top browning eg frittata, quiche.
