Selecting the  cooking duration
Unless otherwise stated, the durations
given in the roasting chart are for an
oven compartment which has not been
pre-heated.
 The traditional British method for cal-
culating the roasting time is to allow
15 to 20 minutes per
lb/450 grammes, according to type of
meat, plus approx. 20 minutes, ad-
justing the length of time as roasting
proceeds to obtain the required res-
ult. The roasting time can also be de-
termined by multiplying the thickness
of the roast [cm] with the time per cm
[min/cm] stated below, depending on
the type of meat:
– Beef/venison: 15–18 min/cm
– Pork/veal/lamb: 12–15 min/cm
– Sirloin/fillet: 8–10 min/cm
 As a general rule, check the food
after the shortest duration.
Tips
– For frozen meat, increase the cooking
duration by approx. 20 minutes per kg.
– Frozen meat weighing less than ap-
prox. 1.5 kg does not need to be de-
frosted before roasting.

These functions are suitable for roasting
meat, fish and poultry that needs to be
well browned as well as sirloin joints
and fillet.
The Fan plus  function allows you to
use a lower temperature than you would
with the Conventional heat
because the heat is immediately distrib-
uted around the oven compartment.
