Oven shelves

The two oven shelves can be slotted into place in any of 5 positions. For safety the shelves will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely, pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out.

To put the shelf into a different position, keep the front edge raised, slot the shelf onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in.

The shelf positions are counted from the top downwards and recommended shelf positions are given in the cooking charts on pages 17, 18 and 19. When cooking always try to leave at least one runner position between shelves to allow the heat to circulate properly.

The recommended shelf positions given in the oven cooking charts give the best results.

When you only need to use one shelf you can store the other shelf above or below the one you are using where there is more space.

Use the shelf with the metal plate in a higher runner position when cooking on two levels.

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

ZDG 862 specifications

The Zanussi ZDG 862 is a reliable and efficient gas double oven cooker, combining function, style, and modern technology to meet all your culinary needs. Not only does it boast an elegant design that complements any kitchen decor, but it also offers a wide array of features that make cooking a breeze.

One of the standout characteristics of the ZDG 862 is its dual oven design. The main oven provides ample space for cooking larger meals, while the secondary oven is perfect for smaller dishes or side items. Both ovens are equipped with a range of cooking functions, including baking, grilling, and conventional cooking, ensuring that you have the flexibility to prepare your favorite recipes in various ways.

In terms of technology, the Zanussi ZDG 862 includes fan-assisted cooking in the main oven, which guarantees an even distribution of heat. This results in quicker cooking times and perfectly baked dishes every time. The grill function also gives users the option to achieve that sought-after crispy finish on meats and vegetables.

Another key feature of the ZDG 862 is its user-friendly controls. The knobs allow for precise temperature adjustments, and the easily accessible timers ensure you can keep track of cooking times with ease. This cooker also features a flame failure device, which enhances safety by automatically shutting off the gas supply if the flame goes out.

Cleaning is often a concern when it comes to cooking appliances, but Zanussi has taken steps to simplify this process in the ZDG 862. The oven interiors are designed with grease-proof surfaces that make wipes easy, helping you maintain cleanliness with minimal effort. Additionally, the removable oven doors enable access to hard-to-reach areas for thorough cleaning.

The ZDG 862 is designed for efficiency with energy-saving features that comply with modern standards. Gas cooking is inherently more efficient than electric cooking, and this model is no exception, allowing for rapid heating and reduced cooking times.
