Hot air is distributed by a fan behind the rear wall of the compartment, providing an even temperature on all shelf levels. This means, batches of food can be baked using multiple shelf positions simultaneously. Fan forced operation can be used for single food baking with equal success. Fan Forced baking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional baking.
