THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
This function uses the top and lower elements to give single level cooking. This is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan oven in operation.
SELECTING THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
Turn the multifunction selector to Conventional Oven.
Turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting.
NOTE:
a) The oven indicator neon will glow.
THINGS TO NOTE
1.The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go OUT. It will then cycle ON and OFF showing that the oven temperature is being maintained.
2.The internal oven light operates when the selector is set. If an automatic programme is set, the oven light will come on when the cook time starts.
3.The cooling fan for the controls will operate after a short time and runs on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. See page 15 for more details on the cooling fan.
HINTS AND TIPS
The middle shelf 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
lheat away and give less base browning.
Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.
