Your gas oven is a newly designed oven which incorporates an indirect burner located
under the oven base plate.
If you have previously been used to cooking with gas you may need to slightly alter your
cooking methods. The bottom of the oven is hot and is ideal for browning the underside
of shallow pastry dishes and pizzas. Other items should be cooked nearer the top of the
oven.
When baking cakes, scones etc on more than one shelf the best results will be achieved
by swapping the shelf positions over half way through the cooking process.
SAFETY
NEVER allow fat to build on the oven base.
As with all ovens, clean and empty fat regularly from the trays and oven base to avoid
the possibility of fat fires.
The oven contains a tangential fan at the top of the appliance which forces cool air over
the fascia panel when the oven reaches a set temperature to prevent it from becoming
too hot.
The fan will continue to operate after the oven has been switched off, until the appliance
cools down. However, the oven door can become hot - keep children away from this
appliance.
NEVER place anything on the bottom of the oven.
USE OF THE GRILL
Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes with the door closed.
Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.
The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
Caution: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children well out
of reach.
