Cooking ready meals
We recommend using Fan Plus
U
.
Cook frozen desserts and pizza on baking paper on the rack rather than in the
universal tray. Cooking large frozen items on the universal tray can cause the
metal to distort. This distortion will increase with each subsequent use.
Frozen food such as oven chips or croquette potatoes can, however, be
cooked on the universal tray.
