    USING THE OVEN FOR FAN COOKING Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary. For guides on “pre-heating”, “cooking temperatures” and “cooking times”, see “Oven Temperature Charts”...

    USING THE OVEN FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS “SLOW” SETTING This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven. DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.
  • Page 20 USING THE OVEN FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS FAN GRILLING Fan grilling is a combination of heat from the grill element and the oven fan circulating the hot air around the food. Joints of meat and poultry will be browned as if they were cooked on a rotisserie or spit but more economically as the door if left closed.
