Thefan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperatureinside the oven.The advantage of cooking with this function isenergy saving through:3Faster PreheatingAs the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is notusually necessary to preheat the oven although youmay find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minuteson cooking times. For recipes which require highertemperatures, best results are achieved if the oven ispreheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles,etc.3Lower TemperaturesFan oven cooking generally requires lowertemperatures than conventional cooking.Follow the temperatures recommended in the chart atpage. 12. Remember to reduce temperatures by about20-25°C for your own recipes which useconventional cooking.3Even Heating for BakingThe fan oven has uniform heating on all runnerpositions. This means that batches of the same foodcan be cooked in the oven at the same time.However, the top shelf may brown slightly quickerthan the lower one.This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavoursbetween dishes.The Fan OvenThe cooling fanDuring cooking the cooling fan will operatecontinually. It may run on after the oven is switchedoff to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.NOTEThe action of the cooling fan will depend on howlong the oven has been used and at what temperature.It may not switch in at all at lower temperaturesettings nor run on where the oven has only beenused for a short time.FO 0061
