Preheating, Using the TOP Oven | Electrolux EKG6049 guide

THE TOP OVEN

The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You should turn all food round during cooking

The top oven is also ideal for use as warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the top oven when you want to warm plates. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.

PREHEATING

When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for 20 minutes.

For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.

USING THE TOP OVEN

•Open the oven door.

•Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 1 and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. There will only be small flames at first.

•Turn the control knob to the required gas mark.

•Wait until the burner is showing large flames.

•Close the oven door.

•To turn the oven off, push in the control knob and turn to the off position.

THINGS TO NOTE

•The grill cannot be operated when the top oven is in use.

•The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a time.

Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate at the rear of the shelf in the grill/top oven.

The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front so that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf clear. To install a shelf, reverse the above steps. Each shelf position has an upper and lower support wire, ensure the shelf is placed between these two support wires.
