Cooking Function Symbols
Fan cooking - This setting allows you to roast or
roast and bake simultaneously using any shelf,
without flavour transference.
Conventional cooking - The heat comes from
both the top and bottom element, ensuring even
heating inside the oven.
Full Grill - The full grill element will be on.
Recommended for large quantities.
Pizza Oven - The bottom element provides direct
heat to the base of pizzas, quiches or pies, while
the fan ensures air is circulated to cook the pizza
toppings or pie fillings.
"Fast Heat Up" function
After a cooking function has been selected and the
temperature has been adjusted, the cavity will gradually
heat up until the selected temperature is reached. This
will take from 10 to 15 minutes, depending on selected
function and temperature.

F
2) Set the required cooking function and
temperature as explained in the previous pages.
Thermal Grilling - This function offers an alternative method of cooking food items, normally
associated with conventional grilling. The grill
element and the oven fan operate together,
circulating hot air around the food. Select a
maximum temperature of 200°C.
Baking Function - The top and bottom elements
heat the oven cavity and the fan circulates hot air
around your dishes. Best for baking cakes, biscuits
or bread.

Hints and Tips
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when opening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven, or placed on the oven base.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance.
The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled
through vents between the oven door and the control
panel, as shown in the diagram.
The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off
to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
