HINTS AND TIPS
Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven ON. Shelves are
numbered from the bottom upwards.
When cooking more than one dish in the fan
oven, place dishes centrally on different
shelves rather than cluster several dishes on
one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate
freely for the best cooking results.
When batch baking one type of food, e.g.
Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size
will be cooked in the same time.
It is recommended that when baking larger
quantities the shelf positions should be evenly
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight
increase in cooking time may be necessary.
DO NOT place baking trays directly on the
oven floor as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning; use
the lower shelf position. However, non-critical
dishes may be placed on the oven base when
more space is required.
The use of excessively high temperatures can
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary
to reduce temperatures slightly. Refer to the
recommendations given in the oven cooking
chart see page 21.
Do use the trivet in the meat tin to prevent fat
splashing and keep oven soilage to a minimum.

DO NOT place cookware and cooking
pots with rough bases e.g. cast iron on
the oven door as damage to the glass
may occur.
