17USING YOUR OVEN
Symbol Function description
Fan Forced
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 the ‘Fan Forced’ 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
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’ function for
single shelf cooking, single trays of biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked
puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes. This is a general function that can be used for most
cooking.
Fan assist
Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The fan circulates the hot air
around the oven cavity so that you can put the food in different places in the oven and still cook
them at the same time. You should only use a maximum of two shelves with ‘Fan Assist’.
Do not use the bottom shelf. If the two shelves are used, food on the shelf in the higher position
will cook first and should then be removed to allow the food on the lower shelf to finish cooking.
Roast
The Roast function is designed for roasting meats, poultry and fish by utilising heat from all
elements in combination with the fan to surround the food. This provides even cooking throughout
and enhanced browning.
NOTE: Your oven gives you the option to introduce steam into this cooking cycle.
Base Heat
The ‘Base Heat’ function is specially
designed for food that require extra browning such as the
bases of pastries and pies. Heat comes from the element below the food. If you choose the
default setting, the oven will heat up to 230°C in order to brown the food.
You should then lower the temperature as required. Cook in the lower half of the oven when you
are using only one shelf.
Pizza
‘Pizza’ is a combination of ‘Base Heat’ and ‘Fan Assist’ and offers you the combined benefits
of both functions. Heat switches between the element surrounding the fan and the clean heat
element below the oven floor. The ‘Pizza’ function is ideal for foods that require cooking and
browning on the base. It is for foods such as pizzas, quiches, meat pies and fruit pies. Simply place
the food in the middle of the oven and set the desired temperature.
