When you are cooking, keep
children away from the vicinity
of the oven.
The oven is a fanned electric oven.
To switch on the oven
Turn the oven control knob clockwise
to the desired temperature setting.
The red thermostat indicator will come
on until the selected temperature is
reached and then go off; it will turn on
and off periodically as the thermostat
operates to maintain the selected
temperature.
To switch off
, return the control knob to
the “
l
” off position.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated when
cooking frozen or chilled food, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés and whisked
sponges, otherwise preheating is not
necessary as a fan oven warms up
quickly.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
light switches off for the first time;
this will take between 5 - 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature selected.
N o t e
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven(s). When opening the oven
door, care should be taken to avoid
any possible contact with potentially
hot air, since this may cause discomfort
to people with sensitive skin. We
recommend that you hold the under-
neath of the oven door handle.
Aluminium foil
Use aluminium foil only to cover food
or cooking dishes. Do not foil to cover
the shelves or oven base, as this
creates a fire hazard.
Oven shelves
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing upwards.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
