The top oven
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. The top oven is also ideal for use as warming compartment to warm dishes and
keep food hot. Use the top oven when you want to warm plates. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.

After this time release the controls. The flame should remain alight. If after 10 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating the appliance and wait at least 1 minute before attempting a further ignition of the burner. When the burner has lit release the control and ignition button, adjust the setting as required.
Preheating
When you need to preheat the oven, we rec- ommend you do so for 20 minutes. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pas- tries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.
WARNING!
Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and dam- age will occur.
