TOP OVEN -
CONVENTIONAL COOKING
The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the grill element and the
element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts of meat
in casseroles etc. but can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb).
The operation of the controls is covered on “The Controls”.
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.
The top oven can be used either independently to cook small quantities of food or in
conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.
The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner from the bottom.
To use the oven proceed as follows:
Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top oven light will come
on and wait for the thermostat light to go off, indicating that the oven has reached
the right temperature.
The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the shelf with a gap of at
least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and
ensure even cooking.
Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the oven.

Platewarming in the top oven
Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated when the main oven is
in use.
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being cooked on the hob,
place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and turn the
top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is
required to heat the plates and dishes.
NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or warming plates
and dishes.
WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be
affected by heat into the oven.
