Baking Trays And Dishes - Parkinson Cowan SONATA 50GX Installation And Owner's Instructions

Most second oven cooking should be carried
out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2.
However, when cooking a small joint or a deep
cake you can use the shelf on the base of the
second oven to allow enough air to circulate
around the food.

Baking trays and dishes

Never place cooking dishes, trays
and so on over the oven burners.
This will damage the cooker as
well as the ovenware and possibly
the floor covering underneath the
cooker.
Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all
dishes and the sides of the oven so the
heat can circulate properly.
Do not push dishes too far back as food
will burn if it overhangs the burner flames.
For the best results from your main oven we recommend that you use a
baking tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which
is larger than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking.
The size of tray which should be used in the second oven should
measure no more than 310mm x 230mm (12" x 9"). Position the longest
side parallel with the door.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking. Turn all food round in the second
oven.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing
to worry about.
The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present, for
example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make sure that food
which contains a lot of moisture for example casseroles are covered. If
you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away.
