Condensation
Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing
to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are
present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make
sure that food which contains a lot of moisture, for example casseroles,
are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away.
Oven temperature chart
The chart below is intended to help you use your oven. If you are using
a gas oven for the first time or if a recipe says 'cook at 350
o
F' or 'use a
moderately hot oven' you can use the chart to find out what gas mark to
use. The temperatures are only a guide they are not actual
temperatures in the oven. This chart cannot be used to check actual
oven temperatures.
