Multifunction Electric Oven
1. Remove the grill tray.
2. Choose a function using the selector knob for oven functions. Turn the knob to the symbol of
the cooking function you wish to use. On some models the ovens only operate as fan forced
and the function is automatically selected when selecting the temperature.
3. Rotate the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.
4. Wait until the thermostat indicator light goes off – this indicates that the oven has reached
temperature and introduce the food to be cooked.
Thermostat Indicator light
The 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.
Try to open the oven door as little as possible as opening the door lowers the temperature and
affects the thermostat cycles. When cooking on
different shelves simultaneously, put all containers in the centre of the shelves.
ELECTRIC OVEN FUNCTIONS - functions vary according to cooker model
Oven Light
The oven light illuminates the oven cavity enabling the user to visually monitor the
cooking process.
Fan Forced
A circular element around the fan. The air is forced through the element for rapid heat
distribution. In some cooking tasks the food may need to be rotated.
Classic Baking
The heat comes from two elements. An element is above an element is under the
floor of the oven. A good function for pizza and cooking on single shelves.
Bottom Heat
Heat from the bottom element and distributed by a fan. Too slow for initial heat up
but a great function for browning the bases of pizzas, pies and pastries.
Double grill with fan - some models
The grill element produces radiant heat to the top of the food and the fan distributes
the heat. Ideal for thicker cuts of meat. Preheat for 3 minutes.
Double grill
Traditional grilling of sausages, chops, cheese toasties. All grilling is done with the
door closed for maximum efficiency and to keep cooking odors out of the kitchen.
Grill
The single grill element produces radiant heat over a smaller area so that smaller
amounts of food can be prepared without wasting energy.
Defrost
The oven fan operates moving the air in the oven cavity. This reduces the amount of
time it takes to defrost food compared to leaving the food at room temperature.

Selecting the best oven function
All ovens operate differently and trial and error is part of gaining full familiarity with any new
oven. Fan forced is great heat up function and very good when cooking on multiple shelves. The
classic bake which applies heat from the top and bottom of the oven works well when cooking
on a single level.
