COOKING FUNCTIONS
Symbol Function description
Rapid Heat
Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan as well as the smaller element above the food. This
allows you to preheat your oven 30% quicker than on standard ‘Bake/Pizza’. ‘Rapid Heat’ is ideal for
cooking frozen pre-cooked foods such as savoury pastries, pizzas, mini meals (TV dinners), meat pies and
fruit pies. Simply place the food in the oven straight from the freezer and heat. Cook in the upper half of the
oven for best results.
Fan Bake
Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan. This fan circulates the hot air around the oven cavity
so that you can put your food in different places in the oven and still cook them at the same time. You
can use ‘Fan Bake’ function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating cooked foods, pastries and complete oven
meals. It will cook at a lower temperature and be faster than baking. Please note that some variation in
browning is normal.
Bake + Steam
Bake + Steam adds humidity at the beginning of the baking process. In bakery products, this allows
the dough to rise and helps create a moist interior while obtaining a golden and crispy crust. Before
preheating, when the oven is cold, add water to the cavity well. Refer to chapter ‘Steam assisted cooking’
for more details. For best results preheat the empty oven for 10 minutes prior to inserting food.
Bake/pizza
Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The bottom element is a clean heat
element and is below the floor of the oven. Both elements are controlled by the thermostat and will turn
on and off to maintain set temperature. You can use the ‘Bake/pizza’ function for single trays of biscuits,
scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.
Pastry
Heat comes from the clean heat element below the food. The element is controlled by the thermostat
and will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The ‘Pastry’ function can be used to add extra
browning to the bases of pizzas, pies, and pastries. Cook in the lower half of the oven when you are using
only one shelf.
Fan Grill
‘Fan Grill’ offers you the benefits of both ‘Fan Cook’ and traditional ‘Grill’ functions. The grill element turns
on and off to maintain set temperature while the fan circulates the heated air.
Fan grill with the oven door closed.
You can use ‘Fan Grill’ for large cuts of meat, which gives you a result that is similar to ‘rotisserie’ cooked
meat. Put your food on the grill shelf in position 2. Place the grill dish under the grill shelf to catch any spills.
When using ‘Fan Grill’ it is not necessary to turn food over during the cooking cycle. Set temperature
to 180°C.
Grill
‘Grill’ function directs radiant heat from the powerful upper element onto the food. You can use the
‘Grill’ function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick
cooking foods.
Grill with the oven door closed.
Preheat your grill for 3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak,
chops etc for better flavour. Place grill shelf in position 4 with grill dish below to catch any spills.
Grill Boost
‘Grill Boost’ directs radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements onto the food. You can use the
‘Grill Boost’ function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other
quick cooking foods.
Grill with the oven door closed.
‘Grill Boost’ allows you to take full advantage of the large grill dish area and will cook faster than normal
‘Grill’. For best results it is recommended to preheat your grill for 3 minutes. This will help seal in the natural
juices of steak, chops etc for a better flavour. Place grill shelf in position 4 with grill dish below to catch
any spills.
