CONVECTION BAKING WITH VENTILATION (OVEN BURNER
WITH FAN MOTOR)
After lighting the oven burner switch on the fan motor by turning the LIGHT & FAN control
knob (fi g. 3.2) on "LIGHT & FAN" position.
Before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
For a correct preheating operation, it is advisable to remove the tray from the oven and
introduce it together with the food, when the oven has reached the desired temperature.
Check the cooking time and turn off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical end time
to utilize the stored heat.
It is possible to cook various different foods at the same time. Fish, cakes and meat can
be cooked together without the smells and fl avours mixing.
The only precautions required are the following:
■
The cooking temperatures must be as close as possible with a maximum difference
of 70-80 °F (20-25 °C) between the different foods.
■
Different dishes must be placed in the oven at different times according to the coo-
king time required for each one. This type of cooking obviously provides a conside-
rable saving on time and energy.
Recommended for:
For foods of large volume and quantity which require the same internal and external
degree of cooking; eg rolled roasts, turkey, legs, cakes, etc.
