USES OF THE OVEN
The oven is ideal for baking, roasting and casseroles.
The oven also includes a Slowcook feature.
It is important to refer to the oven cooking chart as a
guide to shelf positions and gas mark settings as
these may differ from previous appliances you may
have used.
PREHEATING
It is not necessary to preheat the oven for
casseroles.
For recipes needing high temperatures such as
bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc. best results are
achieved if the oven is preheated for 20 minutes.
When cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food
read the instructions on the packaging.
