THE TOP OVEN
THE TOP OVEN
USES OF THE TOP OVEN
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is
designed for cooking on one level and for small quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook
fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the lowest
setting on the top oven temperature control.
SELECTING THE TOP OVEN
To operate the top oven turn the temperature control
to the required setting. Our diagram shows the oven
set to 160°C. Close the oven door.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. The grill cannot be operated when the top oven is
in use.
Only the outer part of the top oven
element in conjunction with the base element will
operate when using the top oven.
2. The top oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out.
It will then turn ON and OFF
showing that the oven temperature is being
maintained.
3. The cooling fan will operate. For more details
about the cooling fan see page 9.
4. Always place plates on the oven shelf to warm.
Never place dishes directly on the top oven base
as it becomes very hot and damage may occur.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt
and safety stop mechanism will be affected.
