USING THE TOP OVEN - GAS
OVEN FURNITURE
Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even brown-
ing, the maximum size baking trays and
roasting tins that should be used are as
follows;
Baking tray
350mm x 330mm
Roasting tin
370mm x 320mm
Position baking trays and roasting tins on
the middle of the shelves, and leave one
clear shelf position between shelves, to
allow for circulation of heat.
Oven shelves
Extra shelves may be ordered from your
local supplier.
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing upwards.
The top oven shelf helps to ensure even
baking in the top oven. It has a rear de-
flector fitted to it, and is not intended for
use in the main oven.
OVEN LIGHT (IF FITTED)
Press the light button on the facia panel.
If there is no light button the oven light
will come on when the oven control is
operated.
SLOW COOKING
Make sure that frozen foods are thorough-
ly thawed before cooking.
Do not slow cook joints of meat or poultry
weighing more than 2¼kg / 4½lb.
Always use the top half of the oven for
slow cooking.
For roasting joints of meat or poultry, and
for pot roasts preheat the oven to gas
mark 6 and cook for 30 minutes, then
adjust the oven control to the “S” slow
setting for the remainder of the cooking
time.
Slow cooking times will be about three
times as long as conventional cooking
times.
