THE MAIN OVEN

 

 

The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger 

quantities of food.  
The advantages of fan oven cooking are: 

 

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 cooking chart.   As 

a guide reduce temperatures by about 20C° - 25°C for 

your own recipes, using a conventional oven. 

 

BATCH BAKING 

 

The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially 

useful when batch baking. 

 

USING THE MAIN OVEN 

 

• 

Turn the main oven temperature control to the 

required setting. 

 

 

THINGS TO NOTE 

 

• 

The oven light will illuminate.  

• 

The indicator neon will glow.  It may turn ON and 

OFF during use to show that the setting is being 

maintained. 

• 

The cooling fan for the controls may operate after 

a time. 

• 

The oven fan will operate.  

• 

If an automatic programme has been set, the oven 

fan and light do not come on until cooking begins. 

 

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.   

To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until the 

shelf stop is reached.  Tilt shelf up at the front so that 

the stops clear the side supports.  Lift shelf clear.  To 

install a shelf, reverse the above steps.  Each shelf 

position has an upper and lower support wire, ensure 

the shelf is placed between these two support wires.
