To ensure optimal performance when cooking convenience foods, pizza or frozen and chilled ready meals, always preheat the oven first. 19 Things to note · The oven light will illuminate. It may turn on and off during use to show that the setting is being maintained. · The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a time. · If an automatic programme has been set, the oven light will not come on until cooking begins. · It is recommended that when baking larger quantities the shelf positions should be evenly spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight increase in cooking time may be necessary. · Do not place baking trays directly on the oven base as it interferes with the oven air circulation and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf position. WARNING! Do not place cookware and cooking pots with rough bases e. g. cast iron on the oven door as damage to the glass may occur. Hints and tips · Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are numbered from the bottom upwards. 5 4 3 2 1 · When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results. · When batch baking one type of food, e. g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. 20 Oven cooking chart . ts rif ne vo eht taehe rp sy aw la , laem ydae r dell ihc dna nez or f ro azz ip , sdoof ecnei nevnoc g nik ooc nehw e cnamr ofrep la m itpo erusne oT . lev el eno n o d e k a b e b d l u o h s ) c t e s n a l f ti u r f , a z z i p e l p m a x e r o f ( s e pi c e r t s i o m , s t l u s e r t s e b r o F .
