Top Oven Cookery Notes (C261E,C361E,C461E,C365E and R365E)
38
The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food.The oven is
designed so that the grill element operates at a reduced heat output,this
is combined with a heating element situated underneath the floor of the
oven.
To ensure even cooking of the food it is important that cooking utensils
are positioned correctly on the oven shelf so that the element is directly
above.
There are two cooking positions, the shelf placed on runner 1 or 2 (from
the base),do not use shelves upside down.
Food/utensils must not be placed directly on the oven floor.
There should always be at least 25mm (1in) between the top of the food
and the grill element.
Warning: Items stored in top oven will get hot when main oven is in use.
The Easy Glide™ Shelf, in conjunction with the grill pan supplied can be
used for cooking in the oven(s),ie.meat,poultry etc.also for roasting
vegetables. Place the Easy Glide™ Shelf in the oven on the same runner
position as stated in the meat cooking charts.
Always remove the grill pan handle from the grill pan when the pan is
being used for oven cooking.
Always use oven gloves when basting,turning or removing food from the
oven,as the Easy Glide™ Shelf and the grill pan will be hot.
Never remove the Easy Glide™ Shelf from the oven with the grill pan and
food still in position.
To heat the oven,turn the control knob clockwise.The top oven pilot light
will come on and remain on until the oven reaches the required tempera-
ture.The pilot light will automatically go on and off during cooking as the
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3 lbs), or poultry, up to 3.6kg (8 1lbs)
(60cm cookers) in weight can be roasted in a small meat pan in the top
oven. Larger joints of meat/poultry weighing more than 3.6kg (8 1lbs)
(60cm cookers) should be roasted in the main oven.
Do not use the main oven meat pan or grill pan as a meat pan in the
top oven as air circulation will be seriously restricted.
Place the plates/dishes on the shelf,positioned on runner 1,turn top oven
control to 100°C for 10-15 minutes.Never use grill control.
