Both Ovens; Multi-Function Oven - AGA Legacy 44 User's Manual & Installation Instructions

Both ovens

Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to
400°F for 30 minutes to expel manufacturing
odors.
The wire racks should always be pushed firmly
to the back of the oven.
Bakeware, meat pans etcetera should be placed
level centrally on the oven's wire racks. Keep all
trays and containers away from the sides of the
oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum
recommended size of a baking sheet is 11
13''.
Cooking high moisture
content foods can create a
'steam burst', when the oven
door is opened. When
opening the oven stand well
back and allow any steam to
disperse.
When the oven is on, don't
leave the door open for longer
than necessary, otherwise the
knobs may get very hot.
• Always leave a 'fingers width' between dishes
on the same rack. This allows the heat to
circulate freely around them.
• Cover meat when cooking to avoid fat
splashes.
• To reduce fat splashing when you add
vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them
thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.
• Sufficient heat rises out of the oven while
cooking to warm plates in the broiler
compartment.
• If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish,
preheat the baking sheet for 15 minutes
before placing the dish in the centre of the
sheet or use the base heat in the Multifunction
oven.
• Where dishes may boil and spill over during
cooking, place them on a baking sheet.
Using your Range

Please remember that all ranges vary -
temperatures in your new ovens may differ to
those in your previous range.
Multi-function oven modes
This function operates the fan to circulate cold
air only. No heat is applied. This enables small
items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces
of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process
and protects the food from flies. Pieces of meat,
fish and poultry should be placed on a rack, over
a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the
rack and tray after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and meat
roasts should not be defrosted in this way. We
recommend this be carried out in a refrigerator.
Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm
oven or when an adjoining oven is in use or still
warm.
Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are
completely defrosted before cooking.
