THE MAIN FAN OVEN
USES OF THE FAN OVEN
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however, you may find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For
recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés, etc., best results are achieved if the oven
is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven
first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 25. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C - 25°C for your own
recipes.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
l
Turn the main fan oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
1) The main oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and then
go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically during
cooking showing that the temperature is being
maintained.
2) The oven fan will operate continually during
cooking.
3) The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a
period of time.
4) The internal oven light will come on.
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back
of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety
stop mechanism will be affected. Only use straight
shelves in the main oven.
