”Convection Assisted Oven”
This function operates the fan, circulating air heated by the elements at the top and the base of
the oven. The combination of fan and conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes this
function ideal for cooking large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat roast.
It is also possible to bake on two racks at same time using racks 1 & 3, although they will need to be
changed over during the cooking time, as the heat at the top of the oven is greater than at the base, when
using this function.
This is a fast-intensive form of cooking; keep an eye on the food cooking until you are used to this function.
”Defrosting”
This function operates the fan to circulate cold air only. Make sure the temperature control (B)
is at 0° and that no heat is applied. This enables small items such as desserts, cream cakes and
pieces of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Thawing in this way speeds up the process and protects the food from contamination. Pieces of meat, fish
and poultry should be placed on a rack, over a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the rack and tray
after thawing.
Thaw with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and meat roasts should not be thawed in this way. We recommend this
be carried out in a refrigerator.
Thawing should not be carried out in a warm oven. Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are completely
thawed before cooking.
3.3. Gril l Function (gas and electric ovens)
Your oven is equipped with an electric grill controlled separately from the heating element on
the oven floor. The grill element has 1 power circuit: 2350 W maximum.
To activate the grill mode, turn the simmerstat clockwise to the right as far as the ”max” symbol.
In this position the grill will reach maximum power (2350 W). By turning back to the right you can then
reduce the power of the circuit.
To switch on your
grill in the gas oven:
-
switch on your oven by pressing the power button (A). The lamp in oven will remain lit if the oven door is
open;
-
turn the simmerstat (C) to the desired power and the indicator light (E) will come on.
To switch on your
grill in the electric oven:
-
switch on your oven by turning selector (A) switch to "broil" one click to the left. The oven light will
remain on if the oven door is open;
-
turn the simmerstat (C) to the desired power and the indicator light (E) will come on.
”Convection Broiling” - only electric oven
This function operates the fan while the top element is on. It produces a more even, less hard
heat than a conventional broiler. For best results, place the food to be grilled, on the grid in the
pan provided. Thick pieces of meat or fish are ideal for cooking in this way, as the
circulated air reduces the hardness of the heat from the broiler. The oven door should be kept closed while
cooking is in progress, so saving energy. You will also find that the food needs to be watched and turned
less than for normal broiling.
