[. . . ] Cooking Time Time depending on type of food. Preheat pan first, time depending on size and type. 6 6 The temperatures below relate to heat setting recommended on food packs. High Medium High Medium Medium Low Low Very Gentle = = = = = = No. 1 17 USING THE OVEN FOR FAN COOKING Fan Oven Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary. For guides on "pre-heating", "cooking temperatures" and "cooking times", see "Oven Temperature Charts" later in book. NOTE: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10°C. It may also be necessary to increase or decrease cooking times. OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat in the oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced. Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking as air circulation is restricted. DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the oven is in use as the surfaces get extremely hot. OVEN UTENSILS Meat pans larger than 375mm x 300mm (15" x 12") Baking Trays larger than 325mm x 250mm (13" x10") An additional oven shelf can be purchased from your oven supplier if a third one is required for batch baking. Never use more than three shelves in the oven as air circulation will be seriously restricted. Do not use: TEMPERATURE & TIME If three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven. 18 USING THE OVEN FOR FAN COOKING FAN OVEN OPERATION Selector Fan oven/grill Minute Minder Fan Oven A Credaplan Fan Oven Oven & Grill Selector B Oven & Grill Temperature Control Fan oven/grill Minute Minder Minute Minder Set Selector Cook Stop Period Time Alarm Alarm On A Cordialle B Auto pm qqqqqq Select Step 1 Ensure oven timer is set to manual (Cordialle only). Ensure that the oven shelf is in the correct position. Place food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully closed. Turn knob A clockwise to Fan Oven function. Step 2 Turn knob (B) clockwise and select the required cooking temperature (70°C to 230°C). The pilot light (q) will immediately come on, and remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature. Step 3 After use turn both controls to their Off (O) position. NOTE: At the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal. 19 USING THE OVEN FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS 90 "SLOW" SETTING This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven. DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the oven lining and the plates which are being warmed. ADVANTAGES OF SLOW COOKING ARE: The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing. Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking. Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised. [. . . ] THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG. Problem Nothing works. Check (a) Check If you find :Display is blank. Then it is likely that there is no electricity supply to your oven. Check: (i) That the main cooker wall switch is turned on. (ii) Check other appliances to see if you have a power cut. [. . . ]
