Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the oven is used,
young children should be kept
away.
The main oven is a fanned electric oven.
To switch on the oven
Turn the main oven control knob
clockwise to the selected temperature.
Note: The red thermostat indicator will
come on until the selected temperature
is reached and then go off. It will turn
on and off periodically as the thermo-
stat operates to maintain the selected
temperature.
To switch off, return the control to the
“off” position.
Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray 350mm x 280mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin 370mm x 320mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated when
cooking frozen and chilled food, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés and whisked
sponges, otherwise preheating is not
necessary, as a fan oven warms up quickly.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
neon switches off for the first time; this
will take between 5 - 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature selected.
To help the air to circulate freely
Position the shelves evenly within
the oven and maintain a clearance
from the oven roof and base.
If more than one cooking dish or
baking tray is to be used on a shelf
leave a gap of at least 25mm
between the items themselves and
the oven interior.
Allow enough space between shelves
for food that will rise during cooking.
Do not place items on the oven
base as this will prevent air from
circulating freely.
Slow cooking
Make sure that frozen foods are
thoroughly thawed before cooking.
Do not
slow cook joints of meat or
poultry weighing more than 2
1
4kg / 4
1
2lb.
For roasting joints of meat or poultry
and for pot roasts, preheat the oven
to 190˚C - 200˚C and cook for 30
minutes, then adjust the oven control to
110˚C - 120˚C for the remainder of
the cooking time.
Slow cooking times will be about
three times as long as conventional
cooking times.
