Oven control
Oven burner controls
After you ignite the oven burner, you can adjust the temperature inside the oven, as
required, using the numbers on the control panel or knob. The higher numbers
provide higher temperatures, while smaller numbers provide lower temperatures.
Function Description
Max. 6 5 4 3 2 1
Turn the control anti-clockwise to set to the Gas Mark as required.
Do not operate the appliance betw
een the “Off” position and the first temperature
marker in the anti-clockwise direction. Always use the oven between the maximum
and minimum settings. When switching the oven off, turn the knob in the clockwise
direction to t
he “0” position.
Preheating
We recommend you preheat your oven for 10 minutes. For recipes needing high
temperatures, such as bread, pastries, scones or soufflés, the best results are
achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking from frozen or
cooking chilled ready meals, always preheat the oven first.
Cooking
•
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf and that there is sufficient room
around the baking tray / dish to allow for maximum circulation.
•
Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on the shelf to prevent spillage
onto the oven base and to help reduce the amount of cleaning required.
•
The material and finish of the baking tray and dishes used will affect base
browning. Enamel, dark, heavy or nonstick utensils increase base browning. Shiny
aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and reduce base browning.
•
When cooking more than one dish in the oven, place dishes centrally on
different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the
heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results.
•
If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or
biscuits, swap the trays during cooking
or remove the top tray when the food on it is cooked and move the lower tray to the
higher shelf to finish cooking.
•
Do not place baking trays directly on the oven base as it interferes with the
oven air circulation and can lead to base burning. Use the lower shelf position.
