☞How to Use the

Conventional Oven

Turn the oven function control knob to the required temperature.

THINGS TO NOTE

●The thermostat control light will remain on until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on and off to show that temperature is being maintained.

Top oven element only

This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes, eg; lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.

Bottom oven element only

This function is particularly useful when blind-baking pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be used to finish off quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is cooked through.

iHints andTips

The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position.

The material and finish of the baking trays and dishes used will affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning, while oven glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.

Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.

Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning easier.

Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then swich the selector to the conventional oven setting.

Single level cooking gives best results. If you require more than one level cooking use the fan oven function.
