ELECTRIC OVEN
DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
Electric ovens have the advantage of being able to offer different types of
heat to suit many cooking applications. Models vary according to the
functions available.
TIMER:
Minute counter – rotate the knob to the desired time up to 60
minutes and a bell will ring at the end of the time period. For very short
time periods turn the knob past the point you want and then back to it to
load the timer mechanism.
Some models may have an electronic timer.
Refer to electronic timer instructions in this book.
‘MODE’:
Function selector – selects the oven functions. The oven
functions vary for each model.
‘TEMP’:
This thermostat pilot light switches on and off during cooking to
show that the heating cycles are taking place properly. For Static and fan
forced mode, the oven must always be preheated. For optimum results,
try to open the oven door as little as possible, opening the door lowers the
temperature suddenly and affects the thermostat cycles. When cooking
on different shelves simultaneously, put all containers in the centre of the
shelves.
‘OVEN’:
The oven temperature is controlled by a thermostat. Select the
required temperature for the cooking task. The indicator light goes out
when the temperature is reached.
OPERATING THE OVEN
Remove the grill tray. Choose a function using the MODE switch. Turn it to
the symbol of the cooking function you wish to use. Then rotate the
thermostat knob to the desired temperature. Wait until the thermostat
indicator light goes out. This indicates that the oven has reached
temperature. Then introduce the food to be cooked. Over the page is a
description of the functions that may be on your oven.
