Oven operating lights (main and secondary oven)
This light will come on to indicate that the oven’s heating elements are
in operation. The light will switch off when the temperature set has
been reached. It will cycle on and off throughout the cooking time.
You should not place food inside the cavity, until the correct
cooking temperature has been reached.
Cooking guidelines
o
Please refer to the information given on food packaging for
guidance on cooking temperatures and times. Once familiar with
the performance of your appliance, temperatures and times can
be varied to suit personal preference.
o
When using the fan oven function you should follow the
information given on the food packaging for this particular mode
of cooking.
o
You should pre-heat the oven and not place food inside of it until
the oven operating light has gone off. You can choose not to pre-
heat when using the fan oven mode; however you should extend
the cooking time given on the food packaging by at least ten
minutes.
o
IMPORTANT:
You should ALWAYS pre-heat the oven if you are
baking.
o
If there is no guidance given on the food packaging specifically
for cooking in fan oven mode, you can generally reduce the
cooking time and temperature by 10% from the information
given for conventional oven cooking.
o
Make sure that frozen foods are thoroughly thawed before
cooking, unless the instructions on the food packaging advise
that you can “cook from frozen”.
o
Before cooking, check that any accessories that are not required
are removed from the oven.
o
Place cooking trays in the centre of the oven and leave gaps
between the trays to allow air to circulate.
o
Try to open the door as little as possible to view the dishes.
o
The oven light will remain on during cooking.
