HINTS AND TIPS
•
Single level cooking gives best results. If you 
require more than one level of cooking use the 
main fan oven. 
•
The middle shelf allows for the best heat 
distribution. To increase base browning simply 
lower the shelf position. To increase top browning 
raise, the shelf position. 
•
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”) 
between the top of the food and the grill element. 
This gives best cooking results and allows room 
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc. 
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones bread etc., 
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the 
shelf. 
•
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf 
and there is sufficient room around the baking 
tray or dish to allow for maximum circulation. 
•
Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on 
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base 
and to help reduce cleaning. 
•
The material and finish of the baking tray and 
dishes used will affect the degree of base 
browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick 
utensils increase base browning. Shiny aluminium 
or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and 
give less base browning. 
•
Do not
place baking trays directly on the oven
base as it interferes with the oven air circulation 
and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf 
position.
•
For economy leave the door open for the shortest 
possible time, particularly when placing food into 
a pre-heated oven. 
Do not place cookware and cooking pots 
with rough bases e.g. cast iron on the oven 
door as damage to the glass may occur.
