Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to
ensure even browning.
-
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and
make cleaning easier.
-
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly on the oven base as it becomes very
hot and damage will occur.When using this
setting, heat comes from both the top and
bottom elements. This allows you to cook on
a single level and is particularly suitable for
dishes which require extra base browning
such as quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require
extra top browning also cook well in the
conventional oven.
How to use the conventional oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the
required cooking function
2. Turn the thermostat control knob to the
required temperature.
Pizza
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the
required cooking function
2. Turn the thermostat control knob to the required
temperature.
The bottom element provides direct heat to the base
of pizzas, quiches or pies, while the fan ensures air
is circulated to cook the pizza toppings or pie fillings.
Hints and Tips
On baking:
Cakes and pastries usually require a medium
temperature (150°C-200°C) and therefore it is
necessary to preheat the oven for about 10
minutes.
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the
baking time has elapsed.
Shortcrust pastry is baked in a springform tin or
on a tray for up to 2/3 of the baking time and then
garnished before being fully baked. This further
baking time depends on the type and amount of
topping or filling. Sponge mixtures must separate
with difficulty from the spoon. The baking time would
be unnecessarily extended by too much liquid.
