Most second oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2. However, when cooking a small joint or a deep cake you can use the shelf on the base of the second oven to allow enough air to circulate

Baking trays and dishes
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burners. This will damage the cooker as well as the ovenware and possibly the floor covering underneath the cooker.
Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly.
Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames.
For the best results from your main oven we recommend that you use a baking tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which is larger than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking.
The size of tray which should be used in the second oven should measure no more than 310mm x 230mm (12" x 9"). Position the longest side parallel with the door.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn large items around during cooking. Turn all food round in the second oven.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about.
The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture for example casseroles are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away.
