USES OF THE BOTTOM HEAT FUNCTION
This function can be used to finish off dishes that
may require extra base heat or where base browning
and crispness are required by pizzas or pies.
Some pizzas should be cooked directly on the oven
shelf. To prevent soiling the oven base, place a
baking tray in one of the lower positions.
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly on the oven base as damage will
occur.
SELECTING THE BOTTOM HEAT
FUNCTION
• Towards the end of the 'Cook' time, scroll
through the main oven function selectors using
lll or until the 'Bottom Heat' neon is
illuminated.
• Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed
and the neon stops flashing.
• The temperature will automatically set to 150°C.
• If you wish to alter the set temperature you may
do so by pressing or until the required
temperature setting is reached.
NOTE
This function should not be used for the entire
cooking time. It is intended as a support function
only.
THE EFFECTS OF DISHES ON COOKING
RESULTS
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc, which affects the way they transmit heat
to the food inside them. The material and finish of
the baking trays and dishes used will affect base
browning.
• Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and
bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and
underneath browning.
• Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium,
aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase
cooking and underneath browning.
• Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to
ensure even browning.
