Using your Range

Conventional oven (top and base heat)

This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked on the top rack will brown and crisp faster than on the lower rack, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Convection assisted oven’ function. Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking. This means that foods requiring diﬀerent temperatures can be cooked together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.

Browning element

This function uses the element in the top of the oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or ﬁnishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot before switching to the top element.

Base heat

This function uses the base element only. It will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or ﬁnish oﬀ cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower rack. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate warming.

The Browning and Base heat functions are useful additions to your oven, giving you ﬂexibility to ﬁnish oﬀ items to perfection. With use, you will soon realize how these functions can combine to extend your cooking skills.

The Right Hand Oven

The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air continuously, which means faster more even cooking.

The recommended cooking temperatures for a fanned oven are generally lower than a non-fanned oven.

The right hand fan oven control is at the right hand end of the control panel.

Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature you need.

The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on and oﬀ during cooking.

Both Ovens

Before using for the ﬁrst time, heat the ovens to 200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours.

Please remember that all cookers vary - temperatures in your new ovens may diﬀer to those in your previous cooker.

The shelves should always be pushed ﬁrmly to the back of the oven.

Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed level centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all trays and containers away from the sides of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.

Cooking high moisture content foods can create a ‘steam burst’, when the oven door is opened. When opening the oven stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.

When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get very hot.

•Always leave a ‘ﬁngers width’ between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely around them.

•Cover meat when cooking.

•To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.

•If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish, preheat the baking tray for 15 minutes before placing the dish in the centre of the tray.

•Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.

Oven shelves

Each oven is supplied with three diﬀerent shelves.

A deluxe oven tray.

The deluxe oven tray in the left hand multifunction oven is supplied with a support grid or trivet so that it can be used for grilling as well as normal oven cooking.
