USING YOUR OVEN

Understanding your oven functions
Your oven will have a selection of the following functions. Refer to “Description of your appliance” to confirm what functions are available to you.

Fan Forced
Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan. This fan circulates 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 Forced” 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
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 a single tray of biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.

Defrost
The “Defrost” function uses low temperature air which is circulated by the fan. You can defrost (thaw) your food before you cook it. Also you may use “Defrost” to raise yeast dough or to dry fruit, vegetables or herbs .Westinghouse-WVE6515SDA-60cm-Multi-Function-5-Oven-
FIG-15

Fan & Grill
“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 fan circulates the heated air. The oven door remains closed for “Fan & Grill”. You can use “Fan & Grill” for large cuts of meat in the oven which gives 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.

Maxi Grill
“Maxi grill” directs radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements onto the food. You can use the “Maxi grill” function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties, and other quick-cooking foods. Grill with the oven door closed. “Maxi grill” allows you to take full advantage of the large grill dish area and will cook faster than normal “Grill”. For best results it is recommended to preheat your grill for 3 minutes. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour.

USING YOUR OVEN (CONTINUED)

IMPORTANT

Cooling/Venting fan
This appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. This prevents your kitchen cabinet from overheating and reduces the condensation inside the oven. It will operate whenever you are using the oven and blow warm air across the top of the oven door.

Condensation and steam
This appliance is supplied with an exclusive system which produces a natural circulation of air and the constant recycling of steam. This steam makes it possible to cook in a steamy environment ensuring that dishes are soft inside and crusty on the outside. This process also reduces cooking time and energy consumption. During cooking, steam may be produced and released when the door is opened. This is absolutely normal. When food is heated, it produces steam in the same way a boiling kettle does. When steam comes into contact with the oven door glass, it will condense and produce water droplets. To reduce condensation, ensure that the oven is pre-heated before placing food in the oven cavity. It is recommended that condensation is wiped away after each use of the oven.

The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, color etc. which affects the way they transfer heat to the food.

  • Aluminum, earthenware, oven glassware and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
  • Enameled cast iron, anodized aluminum, aluminum with a non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
  • To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position.
  • Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.
  • Single-level cooking gives best results in conventional modes. If cooking on more than one level use a fan cooking function.

Operating your oven temperature selector
A thermostat controls the temperature in your appliance. The temperature can be selected within the specified range. To set the temperature, turn the temperature selector in a clockwise direction to the desired setting. An indicator light above the temperature selector will come on. When the set temperature is reached, the element switches off and the indicator light goes off. When the oven temperature falls below the set temperature, the element switches on and the oven indicator light comes on again.

CAUTION

Once the food is cooked, turn the temperature selector back in an anti- clockwise direction. Do not force it right around in a clockwise direction as this will result in damage to the thermostat.

NOTE: For multifunction ovens the desired cooking function must be selected before the oven will operate. Once the desired function has been selected, use the temperature selector to set the required temperature.

Pre-heating your appliance
For best results when baking you must pre-heat the oven for 30 minutes. Preheat the grill for 3 minutes to obtain the best results. Pre-heating your appliance allows it to reach the required temperature quickly and efficiently. When baking bread or cakes, load the oven as quickly as possible after pre- heating and leave the oven door open for the shortest time. This will minimize loss of heat from the oven and ensure the best results.

Hints and tips
The temperature and baking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the recipes and the quality and quantity of the ingredients used.

Baking

  • For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.
  • Your oven may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings such as temperature, cooking time and shelf position to the values in the tables.
  • Use the lower temperature the first time.
  • If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the similar one.
  • You can extend baking times by 10-15 minutes if you bake cakes on more than one shelf position.
  • Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally at first. If this occurs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalise during the baking procedure.
  • Trays in the oven can twist during baking. When the trays become cold again, the distortions disappear.

Oven shelves

IMPORTANT

  • Select the correct shelf location for the food being cooked.
  • Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you switch it on.
  • Keep the edges of baking dishes at least 40mm from the side of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and ensures even cooking.
  • Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
  • Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven with other foods. This will cause food to steam and not brown.
  • After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry bread.
  • Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will prevent the splattering of oil on the sides of the oven and the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue which is very difficult to remove.
  • When cooking things that require a high heat from below (e.g. tarts), place the cooking dish on a scone tray in the desired shelf position.
  • For sponges and cakes use aluminum, bright-finished or non-stick utensils.
  • Always remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting or baking.

Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food at the same time. For example:

  • Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes or sausage rolls.
  • Cook a roast dinner at the same time as you cookchips or vegetables.

It is not recommended to use more than 2 shelves at a time. When cooking with 2 shelves use an oven fan function.

Roasting meat

  • Place the meat in the oven and set the temperature between 180°C and 200°C. (It is recommended to wrap your meats in an oven-roasting bag or foil to prevent fats and oils from splattering, making it easier to clean your oven.)
  • Use the grill/oven dish and grill insert. Place the meat on the insert.
  • Do not pierce the meat, as this will allow juices to escape.
  • When the meat is cooked, take the roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminum foil, and leave to stand for about 10 minutes. This will help retain the juices when the meat is carved.

The table shows temperatures and cooking times for different kinds of meat. These may vary depending on the thickness or bone content of the meat.

GRILLING GUIDE

Grilling hints

WARNING
Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use. Excessive fat build up may cause a fire. As a method of cooking, grilling can be used to:

  • Enhance the flavours of vegetables, fish, poultry and meat.
  • Seal the surface of the food and retain the natural juices.

NOTE: Below is a table indicating the door position whilst grilling for each of the product types.

This table shows how to grill different types of meat:

meAT meTHOD

Beef

| You can use tenderloin, rump, sirloin. Brush with oil or melted butter, especially if the meat is very lean.

Lamb

| You can use loin chops, shortloin chops, chump chops, and forequarter chops. Remove skin or cut at intervals to stop curling. Brush with oil or melted butter.
Sausages| Prick sausages to stop skin from bursting.
Poultry| Divide into serving pieces. Brush with oil.
Fish| Brush with oil or melted butter and lemon juice.
Bacon| Remove rind. Grill flat.

Guide to better grilling

IMPORTANT

Definite times can not be given for grilling as it is dependant on the size of the food and your own tastes. These times should only be used as a rough guide and remember to turn the food over halfway through the cooking process (except with fan grill). For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:

  1. Remove oven/grill dish and grill insert and preheat grill for about 3 minutes.
  2. Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the inside remains raw.
  3. Do not place aluminium foil under the food as this prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could result in a fire.
  4. Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil or marinade.
  5. Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface allowing juices to escape.
meAT TIme
Steak 15 – 20 minutes
Chops 20 – 30 minutes
Fish 8 – 10 minutes
Bacon 4 – 5 minutes

Fan gril
The Fan & Grill function will assist the grilling process by circulating the heat evenly around the food. The recommended temperature setting for Fan & Grill function is 180°C.

  1. Place the oven/grill dish on the bottom rack.
  2. Place meat/poultry on an oven shelf above the oven/grill dish.
  3. Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven is still warm.

There is no need to turn the meat as both sides are cooked at the same time.
