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 oppurtunity to cook without the fan in operation.

SELECTING THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN

Turn the selector to Conventional Oven.

Turn the oven temperature control to the required setting.

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 begins.

3.The cooling fan for the controls will operate after a short time and may run 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 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

lthe heat away and give less base browning.

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