Food is cooking too quickly
- Are you using a fan function?
- Are you using the Quickstart function?
- When using a fan function you should reduce the cooking temperature by 20°C
when compared to conventional cooking. Please see the cooking charts on
page 30-31 for temperatures.
Quickstart is not suitable as a cooking function; it is only for pre-heating the oven.
Once the oven has reached temperature you should change aver to your required
cooking function. Quickstart should not be operated for more than 10 minutes.
Food is not cooking evenly
- Are you cooking large volumes of food or using large trays?
- Air needs to circulate through the oven far even cooking. Remove the grill pan
from the oven when not in use and always allow a gap on all four sides of
dishes. If cooking large quantities you may need to turn your trays during the
cooking time. Oversized baking sheets, roasting pans and cake tins will act as a
baffle and prevent hot air from travelling around the oven.
- Choose cooking equipment that allows a minimum of 2cm space on all sides to
allow the free movement of hot air.
The grill in the oven is slow
- Have you selected the correct function?
