To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure that the cut out on the underside of the handle bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf. ® Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed around the outer edges or underneath the grid when grilling meats. To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to tend the food during cooking, or the carrier shelf can be lifted away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant work surface.
USES OF THE TOP OVEN The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. it is designed for cooking on one level and for smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet or savory flans or quiche. The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 80-100°C on the top oven control dial.
There should airways be at least (17} between the top of the food and the element. This gives best cooking results and allows room for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings, etc. ‘When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread, ac, place the tins or baking trays centrally on the shelf directly below the element. DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage may scour.
USES OF THE FAN OVEN PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating, however, you may find you need to add an extra 5 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles, etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. COOKING TEMPERATURES Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking.
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven, If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected. / Back of Oven Straight Rods / Frame HINTS AND TIPS & Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON, Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards.
OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.
