USING THE OVEN OF YOUR GAS COOKER

Baking

•With conventional oven models heat comes from the burner below the food at rear of oven.

•The burner is controlled by the thermostat which sets the oven temperature.

•There is a variation in temperature between the bottom and the top of the oven. The bottom shelf is the coolest and the top shelf is the hottest.

Fan Baking (Fan forced oven models)

•With fan forced ovens, heat comes from the burner below the food at rear of oven.

•The fan circulates the hot air and so the temperature is more even throughout the oven.

•Fan baking:

–Cooks faster and at lower temperatures than conventional baking

–Is good when you are cooking food on different shelves at the same time.

NOTE: We recommend that you preheat your oven before you turn the fan on.

NOTE: Some variations in browning is normal with a fan forced oven.
