Oven cooking chart
These times and temperatures are only
approximate and for use as a guide.
You can use Gas Mark settings higher or
lower to cook your food exactly as you
like it.
The shelf positions in this oven are
numbered from the base up (Fig. 4), and
the variations of heat between the top
and bottom shelves is approximately one
gas mark. It is advisable to follow the
recommended shelf positions until you
become familiar with your oven.
After turning on the oven and prior to
introduce the food it is advisable to wait
for about 10-15 minutes to allow the
oven to reach the required temperature.
Please remember that the heat comes
directly up from the base of this oven.
Care must be taken not to place food or
dishes directly on to it, neither can it be
used to keep dishes warm. To minimise
cleaning it is advisable to avoid spilling
such things as fruit juice or sugar on to
the base of the oven whilst it is hot.
Burner
Therefore, items such as fruit pies or
crumbles are best cooked on a baking
tray.
For this purpose or for baking never use
a full width baking-tray that will
obstruct the circulation of heat.
If you wish to bake two identical items
simultaneously, keep one free shelf
position between them to allow
maximum heat circulation. As the food
on the lower shelf begins to brown on
the base, change the position of the trays
around to ensure that the food browns
evenly.
If you are in any doubt about baking one
of your own recipes, try to find
something similar in our own baking
guide and follow its recommendations.
Important
The anti-tip oven grid must be positioned
as shown in figure 5.
