Using The Fan Oven - Electrolux EOB 966 Instruction Booklet

Using the Fan Oven

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around
the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates
hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.
The advantages of cooking with this function are:
l
Faster Preheating
As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not
usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may
find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes on
cooking times. For recipes which require higher
temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is
preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles,
etc.
l
Lower Temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures
than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking
chart or remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-
25°C for your own recipes which use conventional cooking.
l
Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on all shelf positions.
This means that batches of the same food can be cooked
in the oven at the same time. However, the top shelf may
brown slightly quicker that the lower one.
This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours between
dishes.
