Using the Top Oven
Caution: Accessible parts may be hot when the oven is used, young children should be kept away.
The top oven is a conventional electric oven.
To switch on the top oven
Turn the top oven control knob clockwise to the desired temperature.
Note: The red thermostat indicator will come on until the selected temperature is reached and then go off. It will turn on and off periodically as the thermostat operates to maintain the selected temperature.
To switch off, return the control to the “●” off position.
Top oven light
The top oven light will come on when the top oven is switched on.
Preheating
We recommend preheating the oven for frozen or chilled food and also for soufflés, batter mixtures and yeast mixtures.
Preheat the oven until the indicator light switches off for the first time, this will take up to 20 minutes depending of the temperature selected.
Notes
■Caution: The top element gets extremely hot when in use, so take extra care to avoid touching it.
■Important: Never put items directly on the base of the oven or cover the oven base with foil, as this may cause the element to overheat. Always position items on the shelf.
Top heat only
Turn the top oven selector past the oven temperature markings to the top heat symbol. This setting can be used to brown the top of dishes such as cau- liflower cheese or baked alaska.
