  • Page 18: 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 smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.
  • Page 19: Hints And Tips

    HINTS AND TIPS There should always be at least 2.5cm (1") between the top of the food and the element. This gives best cooking results and allows room for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc. When cooking cakes, pastry, scones bread etc., place the tins or baking trays centrally below the element.
  • Page 20: The Main Fan Oven

    THE MAIN FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN The oven is heated by an element around the fan situated behind the back panel.

The advantages of fan oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven.
  • Page 21: Hints And Tips

    HINTS AND TIPS Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards.

    THE ZONED OVEN USES OF THE ZONED OVEN When the Zoned Oven is selected the element at the top of the oven operates in conjunction with the fan with effect that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. As there is a difference of up to 30°C between the top and bottom of the oven this feature is especially useful for dishes requiring different temperatures at the same time, making it ideal for cooking a complete meal on two shelves.
  • Page 26: Hints And Tips

    HINTS AND TIPS Remember that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. The approximate difference in temperature between the top and the bottom is 30°C. If a higher shelf position is used than is recommended in the chart on page 27, it may be necessary to lower the cooking temperature by approximately 10°C.
