Using the Convection Function

The fan forces hot air over the food thus heating food very efficiently. To avoid over-cooking and drying of the

surface it is recommended that normal cooking temperatures are reduced by 10-20˚C. Cooking times by

convection are also usually shorter compared to conventional ovens.

Reducing cooking temperature

Do not attempt to use the Wire Rack Shelf to cook on two levels.

Two level cooking

Convection ovens rely on good circulation of air. For best results ensure food/containers are placed in the

centre of the Wire Rack Shelf and avoid the container touching back wall or covering venting holes.

To allow good circulation of hot air, the maximum sized dish used should be no greater than

Width: 12ins (30cms)

Depth: 4ins (10cms)

Diameter: 11ins (28cms)

Positioning food

For best results, always place food into a preheated oven.

See page 26.

Preheating

Take care when removing dishes from the oven after cooking as the Wire Rack and surfaces will be hot.

Hot surfaces

All foods should be placed on the Lower Shelf Position

Convection is suitable to bake cakes, bread, biscuits or pastries.

Suitable Foods

DO USE:

Any container suitable for conventional ovens eg metal, ceramic, earthenware, enamelled cast iron etc.

DO NOT USE: Plastic containers, food films, wood/wicker, glass, paper.
