These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the appliance. This cooker is heavy and care must be taken when moving it. [. . . ] · When the eveness of browning is important, interchange the baking trays on the shelves halfway through cooking. Alternatively, leave the lower tray in the oven for a few minutes longer after the top tray has been removed. · The oven can be used to heat foods through without thawing first, e. g. fruit tarts, mince pies, sausage rolls, and other small pastry items. Use a temperature of 190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes (depending on quantity of food in oven). · The use of too high temperatures can cause uneven browning. Check with the recommendations for oven temperatures given in the cook carts but be prepared to adjust the temperature by 10°C if necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-25°C for your own recipes. THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN The oven is heated by elements positioned in the top and bottom of the oven cavity and is ideal for foods which require even heating from above and below. It is also particularly good for recipes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans, or extra top browning such as gratins, lasagnes and hot-pots. Some people prefer to cook dishes such as cakes conventionally. This function gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation. HINTS AND TIPS · To achieve best results, cook on one level only. If you require two level cooking use the fan assisted function. · The middle shelf position (2) gives the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position; to increase top browning, raise the shelf level. · In addition to the shelf position, the material and finish of the baking trays and dishes will affect base browning of the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning while shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning. · Always place dishes centrally on the shelf. · Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent spillage on the base of the compartment and help to reduce cleaning. · Do not place dishes directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot. 11 24 HOUR CLOCK 1.
