Multi-function Oven cooking guide
Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types. The oven control settings and cooking times
given are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to
provide a preferred result.
Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce
the temperature by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in the fanned oven does not
vary with height in the oven - so you can use any shelf.
As a guide for fan cooking on three levels, use the drop shelf in position 1 (bottom position) and flat shelves on
levels 2 and 4.
The shelves should not be fitted directly one above the other. When cooking on more than one shelf always
leave at least one runner space between them. Place baking trays, individual cake tins or baking dishes
centrally on the oven shelf. For best results pre-heat the oven until the oven indicator light goes out.
