THE SECOND OVEN

USES OF THE SECOND OVEN

The second oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.

The second oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 80° - 100°C on the second oven temperature control.

SELECTING THE SECOND OVEN

Ensure the grill control is in the off, '0' position.

Turn the second oven temperature control to the required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

1.The second oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained.

2.The cooling fan for the controls will operate, after a period of time.

3.Dishes, tins or trays should not be placed directly on the oven floor as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

The cranked shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected.

lHINTS AND TIPS

All cooking should be carried out on shelf positions one and two using a cranked shelf. When more space is required, for example when roasting or casseroling, a straight shelf from the main oven may be placed on the second oven base.
