How to use the Fan Oven

1. Turn the oven function control knob to 
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required tempera-

ture.

THINGS TO NOTE

• The oven light will come on when the oven function

control knob is set.

• The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
• The thermostat control light will remain on until the

correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on

and  off  to  show  that  the  temperature  is  being

maintained.

NOTE

The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the

oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not

switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on

where the oven has only been used for a short time.

F

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around

the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates

hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.

The  advantage  of  cooking  with  this  function  is

energy saving through:

l

 

Faster Preheating

As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not

usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may

find  that  you  need  to  allow  an  extra  5-7  minutes  on

cooking  times.  For  recipes  which  require  higher

temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is

preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles,

etc.

l

Lower Temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures

than conventional cooking.

Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking

chart. Remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-

25°C for your own recipes which use conventional cooking.

Even Heating for Baking

The fan oven has uniform heating on all shelf positions.

This means that batches of the same food can be cooked

in the oven at the same time. However, the top shelf may

brown slightly quicker than the lower one.

This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours between

dishes.

The Fan Oven

FO  0061

 Hints and Tips

Shelf positions are not critical, but make sure the shelves

are evenly spaced.
When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place

dishes centrally on the shelves rather than several dishes

on one shelf.
When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly

longer cooking time.
When the oven is full of the same food, e.g. equal trays

of small cakes or equal size victoria sandwich cakes,

then they will be cooked in the same time and removed

from the oven together. When different sizes of trays or

types of food, e.g. biscuits and cakes are cooked, they

will not necessarily be ready together.
The fan oven can be used to heat foods through without

thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies, sausage rolls,

and other small pastry items. Use a temperature of 190-

200°C and allow 20-40 minutes (depending on the quantity

of food in the oven).
