10 USING YOUR OVEN
USING YOUR OVEN
Understanding your oven functions (WFE912)
Rapid Heat
Function 1
Heat comes from the elements surrounding the fans as
well as the smaller element above the food. This allows
you to preheat your oven 30% quicker than on standard
“Bake”. “Rapid Heat” is ideal for cooking frozen pre-
cooked foods such as savoury dishes, pastries, pizzas,
mini meals (TV dinners), meat pies and fruit pies. Simply
place the food in the oven straight from the freezer and
heat – ideal for busy people. Cook in the upper half of
the oven for best results.
Fan Bake
Function 2
Heat comes from the elements surrounding the fans. The
fans circulate the hot air around the oven cavity so that
you can put your food in different places in the oven and
still cook them at the same time. You can use the “Fan
Bake” function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating cooked
foods, pastries and complete oven meals. It will cook at
a lower temperature and be faster than baking. Please
note that some variation in browning is normal.
Bake/Pizza
Function 3
Heat comes from two elements, one above and one
below the food. The bottom element is a clean heat
element and is below the floor of the oven. Both
elements are controlled by the thermostat and will turn
on and off to maintain the set temperature. You can
use the “Bake” function for pizza and single trays of
biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked
puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.
Base Heat
Function 4
Heat comes from the element below the floor of the
oven. The Element is controlled by the thermostat and
will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The
“Base Heat” function can be used to add extra browning
to the bases of pizzas, pies and pastries. Cook in the
lower half of the oven when you are using only one shelf.
For best results, use silver or shiny trays.
Defrost
Function 8
The “Defrost” function uses low temperature air that is
circulated by the fans. You can defrost (thaw) your food
before you cook it. You can also use “Defrost” to raise
your yeast dough and to dry fruit, vegetables and herbs.
Fan Grill
Function 9
“Fan Grill” offers you the benefits of both “Bake” and
traditional “Grill” functions. The grill element turns on
and off to maintain the set temperature while the fans
circulate the heated air. The oven door remains closed
for fan grill. You can use “Fan Grill” for large cuts of meat
to give you a result that is similar to “rotisserie” cooked
meat. Put your food on a shelf in the second lowest shelf
position. Put the grill dish on the lowest shelf position to
catch any spills. When using “Fan Grill” it is not necessary
to turn the food over during the cooking cycle. Set the
temperature to 180°C.
Grill
Function 10
The “Grill” directs radiant heat from the powerful upper
element onto the food. You can use the “Grill” function
for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish,
cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods. Grill with
the oven door closed. Preheat your grill for 3 minutes
to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural
juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour. You can
slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the
upper pairs of support rails.
