Conventional oven (top and base
heat)
This function combines the heat from the top and
base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting
and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked
on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster than on
the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the top
of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Fan assisted oven’
function. Similar items being cooked will need to be
swapped around for even cooking. This means that
foods requiring diff erent temperatures can be cooked
together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of
the oven and hotter area to the top.
Browning element
This function uses the element in the top of the
oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or
fi nishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and
lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot
before switching to the top element.
Base heat
This function uses the base element only. It
will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or fi nish off
cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower shelf.
It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of
casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate
warming.
The Browning and Base heat functions are useful
additions to your oven, giving you fl exibility to fi nish
off items to perfection. With use, you will soon realise
how these functions can combine to extend your
cooking skills.
The Right Hand Oven
The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a
fanned oven are generally lower than a non-fanned
oven.
Oven shelves
the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards
As well as the fl at shelves some models are supplied
with a drop shelf. The drop shelf increases the
possibilities for oven shelf spacing.
The oven shelves can be easily removed and refi tted.
Pull the shelf forward
until the back of the shelf
is stopped by the shelf
stop bumps in the oven
sides.
Lift up the front of the
shelf so the back of the
shelf will pass under the
shelf stop and then pull
the shelf forward.
To refi t the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove in the
oven side and push the shelf back until the ends hit
the shelf stop. Lift up the front so the shelf ends clear
the shelf stops, and then lower the front so that the
shelf is level and push it fully back.
