[. . . ] The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. the fan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven. The advantage of cooking with this function is energy saving through: Faster Preheating As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes on cooking times. For recipes which require higher temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first, e. It will then cycle on and off to show the temperature is being maintained. It may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on where the oven has only been used for a short time. During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat control light will operate in the same way as described for the fan oven function. How to use the Inner Grill Element The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill element for cooking small quantities, it can help to save energy. The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. However, please note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of defrosting. This function is particularly suitable for delicate food which could be damaged by heat, e. Cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products. Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to prevent drying out during defrosting. aLWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAWING. Frozen food should be placed in a single layer when ever possible and turned over half way through the defrosting process. Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. ) are suitable for defrosting in this way. Cakes and pastries usually require a medium temperature (150°C-200°C) and therefore it is necessary to preheat the oven for about 10 minutes. Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the baking time has elapsed. [. . . ] The manufacturer declines any responsibility should these safety measures not be carried out. THIS OVEN MUST BE EARTHED The cable used to connect the oven to the electrical supply must comply to the specifications given below. Please ensure that when the oven is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown. The surround or cabinet into which the oven will be built must comply with these specifications: the dimensions must be as shown in the relevant diagrams; the materials must withstand a temperature increase of at least 60°C above ambient; proper arrangements must be made of a continuous supply of air to the oven to prevent the oven overheating.
