Base heat

This function uses the base element only. It 

will crisp up your pizza or quiche base, or finish off 
cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower shelf. 
It is also a gentle heat, good for the slow cooking 
of casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate 
warming. 

The Handyrack (Main Oven)

The maximum weight that can be held by the 

Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb). It should only be used with 

the supplied roasting tin, which is designed to fit the 

Handyrack. Any other vessel could be unstable.
Additional roasting tins are available from our cookware 

collection - Part Code RM027.

The Handyrack fits to the left hand Main Oven door 

only. Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it’s 

accessible when the door is open.
It can be fitted at two different heights. One of the oven 

shelves must be removed and the other positioned to 

suit.
When the Handyrack is used in its highest position, 

other dishes can be cooked on the bottom shelf 

position or base of the oven.
When the Handyrack is used in its lowest position, other 

dishes can be cooked on the second shelf position or 

base of the oven.
To fit the Handyrack, locate one side of it on the door 

bracket:

Then spring the other side out to clip it onto the other 

bracket.

Tips on Cooking with the Timer

If you want to cook more than one dish, choose dishes 

that require approximately the same time. However, 

dishes can be ‘slowed down’ slightly by using small 

containers and covering them with aluminium foil, or 

‘speeded up’ slightly by cooking smaller quantities or 

placing them in larger containers. Very perishable foods 

such as pork or fish should be avoided if a long delay 

period is planned, especially in hot weather.

For reasons of health, don’t place warm food in the 

ovens if they are to be operated using a timer, and 

don’t program the ovens if one or other of them is 

already warm.

Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted before 

being placed in the oven. Check that meat and poultry 

are fully cooked before serving.

The oven control settings and cooking 
times given in the table overleaf are 
intended to be used only as a guide. 
Individual tastes may require the 
temperature to be altered to provide a 
preferred result.

For best results pre-heat the oven until the 
oven indicator light goes out.

When using recipes, reduce the temperature 
by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. 
The temperatures in the fanned ovens do not 
vary with height - so you can use any shelf.

Always leave at least one runner space 
between shelves when 2 tier cooking. Place 
baking trays, individual cake tins or baking 
dishes in the middle of the oven shelf.
