The Lower Oven can be used for conventional
cookings or grilling.
☞
How to Use the
Conventional Oven
When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook in 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.
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required
cooking function (
).
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required
temperature.
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.
Top oven element only
This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes,
eg; lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-baking
pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be used to finish
off quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is
cooked through.
The Cooling Fan
• The cooling fan will operate continually during
cooking. It may run on after the oven is switched
off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how
long the oven has been used and at what temperature.
It may not switch in at all at lower temperature
settings nor run on where the oven has only been
used for a short time.
