Instructions for the user 7. SUGGESTIONS FOR COOKING WARNING BURN HAZARD Keep the oven door closed during cooking. WARNING Do not line the bottom of the oven with aluminum or tin foil or place pans or oven trays on this surface as this may damage the enamel oven lining. If you wish to use waxed paper in the oven, position it so that it does not interfere with the circulation of hot air inside the oven. NOTE: In fan-assisted mode, the oven should be preheated to 90-100°F above the recommended cooking temperature. This considerably shortens the cooking time, reduces power consumption and provides more even cooking. 7.1 Conventional cooking FUNCTION SELECTOR CONTROL KNOB FROM LOW TO MAX In conventional cooking, heat circulates from bottom to top; this is ideal for cooking food on a single rack. Preheat the oven before putting food inside it. Very fatty meats may be put in when the oven is still cold. Frozen meat can be placed directly in the oven without waiting for it to thaw. However, set the temperature about 70°F lower and allow 25% more time for cooking. NOTE: Use pans with deep sides to prevent oil/grease from splattering and soiling the walls of the oven. 17
