General Oven Tips
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven.
Baking trays with food cooking on them should be placed level with the front edge of the
oven’s wire shelves. Other containers should be placed centrally. Keep all trays and
containers away from the back of the oven, as over-browning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size of a baking tray is 340 mm (13½”) by
340 mm (13½”).
When the oven is on, do not leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the
knobs may get very hot.
•
Always leave
1cm gap
between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat
to
circulate freely around them.
•
To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them
thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.
•
Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.
