Using the Conventional Oven
When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook on a
single level and is particularly suitable for dishes
which require extra base browning such as pizzas,
quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top
browning also cook well in the conventional oven.
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to
cook without the fan in operation.
How to Use the
Conventional Oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required
cooking function (
).
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required tempe-
rature.
THINGS TO NOTE
The oven light will come on when the oven
function control knob is set.
The thermostat control light will remain on until
the correct temperature is reached. It will then
cycle on and off to show that temperature is being
maintained.
The middle shelf position allows for the best heat
distribution. To increase base browning simply lower
the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the
shelf position.
The material and finish of the baking trays and
dishes used will affect base browning. Enamelware,
dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base
browning, while oven glassware, shiny aluminium or
polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less
base browning.
Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure
even browning.
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent
spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning
easier.
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on
the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will
occur.
For faster preheating use the fan oven function to
preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes
out, then swich the selector to the conventional oven
setting.

Hints and Tips
Single level cooking gives best results. If you
require more than one level cooking use the fan
oven function.
