THE MAIN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however, you may find you need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.

HINTS AND TIPS Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions are numbered from the bottom upwards.

When batch baking one type of food e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. It is rec
