Open the doors. The model number will be on a plate around the door area. With the make and model, google for the User Manual, where they will be explained.

You'll get better feedback if you give the oven make.

And even better feedback if you then put the “make + manual” into google, and chances are you’ll find all the answers, and more!

Far too much effort. Just spoon-fed them the answer, damn it.

The bottom one is basically giant air frier. Or air friers are tiny ovens.

Going clockwise, from the top starting with Off, followed by Light On Only, (Conventional) Top + Bottom Heating Elements only, True Fan Cooking, Fan Assisted Grilling, and finally Fan Assisted (Convectional) Cooking.

That last one is for when lost children wander into your gingerbread house in the middle of the forest.

Just use the bottom one. The others are there for window dressing.

○ (empty circle) → Off Light bulb → Oven light only (no heat) Square with two horizontal lines (top & bottom) → Conventional bake (top + bottom heating elements) Single bottom line → Bottom heat only (good for pizzas/pastry bases) Fan inside a circle → Fan oven / convection (even heat with fan) Fan + bottom heat (fan with a line underneath) → Fan with bottom heat / pizza mode Grill symbol (zigzag or top element shape) → Grill / broil

Asking this kind of question to ChatGPT, or pointing your phone at it and asking, is surprisingly effective. It’s bad at lots of things, but generally good at interpreting these kinds of ancient runes

Agreed. We recently purchased a property that had a rather janky built in oven with not at all obvious controls. A quick Gemini upload of the photo gave all the answers. (We quickly discovered that it didn't work so I replaced it.)

Oven with fan. Means you need a lower heat because it will regulate the temperature better. Check food packaging and you'll see it.

Off Light Top and bottom Top only Fan assist version of the previous two accordingly.
