Using the Top Oven as a Convection Oven

The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food. The oven is designed so that the grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this is combined with a heating element situated underneath the floor of the oven. To ensure even cooking of the food it is important that cooking utensils are positioned correctly on the oven shelf so that the element is directly above. As a guide, the front of the utensil should be approx. 100mm (4”) from the front of the shelf.

Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be

necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be necessary to increase or decrease cooking times.

DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the top oven is in use as the
