This multi‐function oven combines the advantages of traditional convection ovens with those of the more modern fan assisted models in a single appliance. It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily between different cooking modes. Note: The first time you use your appliance, we recommend setting the thermostat to the highest setting for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then open the oven door and let the room air in. The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed. Note: Only place the dripping pan provided on the bottom shelf of the oven to prevent any sauce and/or grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven when grilling food. For all other types of cooking, never use the bottom shelf and never place anything on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminium foil, etc.) on the grids/trays provided with the appliance, positioned along the oven guides.

Cooking modes Convection Mode The top and bottom heating elements operate together like a ‘normal’ conventional oven that you have probably used before. Convection mode is best suited for traditional baking and roasting. You should only use one shelf at a time, otherwise there will be uneven heat distribution. You can balance the amount of heat between the top and bottom of the dish by selecting a different shelf height. If you want more heat at the top of the dish, place the dish on the top or second shelf. For more heat on the bottom of the dish, place the dish on the third or fourth shelf. Fan Bake The top and bottom heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on, guaranteeing constant heat distributed throughout the oven. This mode is recommended for cooking pre‐packaged food quickly (as pre‐heating is not necessary), such as frozen/pre‐cooked food. Multi Cooking Mode The top grill, rear, bottom heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on alternately. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 racks can be used at the same time. Fan Forced Bottom Bake The bottom and rear heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on. This combination rapidly heats the oven due to the large amount of power used by the appliance, which results in the production of considerable heat coming prevalently from the bottom. This mode is ideal for foods requiring high temperatures to cook, such as pizzas and large roasts. Only use one oven tray or rack at a time. Fan Assisted Bottom Bake The bottom element and the fan will operate. This mode is most suitable for pastries, cakes and non‐dry sweets in baking tins or moulds that require heat from the bottom. Top Bake The top heating element operates. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking. Grill Mode The top grill element operates with the door closed. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface. ...
Page 12
Fan Assisted Grill The top grill heating element and the fan come on. The combination of features increases the effectiveness of the heating element, meaning direct heat is circulated throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface and allows the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken in a spicy sauce, quail, pork chops, etc. Cook in this mode with the oven door shut. Baking Mode (Fan Forced) The rear element and fan operate to provide a delicate heat that is evenly distributed throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods on multiple shelves, especially cakes that need to rise such as cream puffs, biscuits, swiss rolls etc. NOTE: This function relies on the air circulation within the oven cavity to provide even temperatures, thus the size and placement of trays can affect the temperature distribution. It is usual to have some temperature variations within the oven cavity and this function is NOT a guarantee of perfectly even temperatures throughout the oven. Defrost Mode The fan located at the back of the oven circulates room temperature air around the oven. This is recommended for defrosting all types of food, but is particularly effective at defrosting delicate food items. It is possible to accelerate the defrosting process by selecting multi‐cooking mode and setting the temperature between 80°C and 100°C. Cooling ventilation To cool down the exterior of the appliance, this model is equipped with a cooling fan which comes on automatically when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel. Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently. ...
Practical advice The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allows you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. The following directions are only a guideline that may be varied according to your own personal experience. Preheating If the oven must be preheated, the “Multi‐Cooking” mode and the “Fast cooking” mode can be used to reach the desired temperature as quickly as. Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most appropriate cooking mode can then be selected. Cooking on More Than One Rack If you have to cook food using several racks, use either the “Baking” mode or the “Multi‐ Cooking” mode, as these are the only modes that allow you to do so. When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use the “Baking” mode, which allows you to cook on 3 racks at the same time (the 1st, 3rd and 5th from the bottom). When cooking other food on several racks, use the “Multi‐Cooking” mode keeping the following suggestions in mind: The oven is fitted with 5 racks. During fan assisted cooking, use two of the three central racks; the lowest and highest racks receive the hot air directly and therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these racks. As a general rule use the 2nd and 4th rack from the bottom, placing the foodstuffs that require greater heat on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when cooking meat roasts together with other food, place the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom. When cooking foodstuffs that require different times and temperatures, set a temperature that is somewhere between the two temperatures required, place the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom and take the food requiring less time out of the oven first. Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper. Using the “Speedcook” Mode Functional, fast and practical for pre‐packed products (for example: frozen or pre‐cooked food) along with other food items. You will find useful suggestions in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table. Using the Grill This multi‐function oven offers you 2 different grilling modes. Use the “Grill” mode, with the door ajar, place the food under the centre of the grill (situated on the 3rd or 4th rack from the bottom) because only the central part of the top heating element is turned on. Place the dripping pan provided on the bottom rack (1st from the bottom) to collect any sauce and /or grease and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom. When using this mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. ...
Page 14
When using this mode, we advise you to set the thermostat to 200 C as it is the most efficient way to use the grill. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures. Baking Cakes Make sure the oven has been preheated thoroughly before placing cakes inside. Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping. Cooking Pizza For best results when cooking pizza, use the “Fan Assisted Bottom Bake” mode. Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes. Use a light aluminium pizza pan, placing it on the grid supplied with the oven. If the dripping pan is used, this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust. Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking. If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process. When cooking pizza on two racks, use the 2nd and 4th with a temperature of 220C and place the pizzas in the oven after having preheated it for at least 10 minutes. Cooking Fish and Meat When cooking white meat, poultry and fish, use temperature setting from 180C to 200C. For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high temperature setting (200C ‐220C) for a short time, then turn the lower the temperature afterwards. In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the center of the grid and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat. Make sure that the grid is placed in the center of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savoury roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top. CONTACT PARMCO APPLIANCES ON 09 573 5678 FOR ALL REPAIR AND SERVICE ON THIS OVEN.
