Uses of the TOP Oven

THE TOP OVEN

The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.

The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 80C° - 100°C on the top oven control dial.

THINGS TO NOTE

The top oven neon indicator will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will then turn ON and OFF showing that the oven temperature is being maintained.

TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected.

HINTS AND TIPS

Most cooking should be carried out using an oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.

Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be cooked in the main oven. However, they may be cooked on a shelf placed on the base of the top oven provided there is sufficient room for air circulation around the food.

Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base and to help reduce cleaning.
