Step 1
Check that the timer is in manual.
Step 2
Place the shelf/shelves in the correct position (see Main Oven
Temperature Charts).
Step 3
Place the food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully
closed.
Step 4
Select the required cooking temperature (80 to 230˚C) by turning
control (C) clockwise. The pilot light will immediately come on, and
remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light
will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Using the Main 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.
Refer to “Oven Temperature Charts”, pages 23 and 24.
Main Oven Shelf Positioning for Fan Oven
Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat
in the main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large quantities of
food. (N.B. Maximum 2 shelves in the main oven).
Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven
for cooking.
Main Oven Utensils
Do Not Use:
Meat Pans larger than
–
375mm x 300mm (15”x12”)
Baking Trays larger than –
325mm x 250mm (13”x10”)
Temperature & Time
When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary
to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow
for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of
food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven.
Main Fan Oven Operation
Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary to
increase or decrease temperatures by 10
o
C. It may also be necessary to increase or decrease
cooking times.
DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use as the surfaces
get extremely hot.
Note: When you have finished using your cooker, always return the controls to their OFF (
●
)
position. At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the door
is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a
good door seal.
