Cooking times & temperatures
The temperature settings and times given
in the baking guide are based on dishes
made with block margarine. If soft tub
margarine is used it may be necessary
to reduce the temperature setting.
If a recipe gives a different temperature
setting to that shown in the guide, the
recipe instruction should be followed.
The times given in the baking guide are
based on cooking in a preheated oven.
Aluminium foil
Only use foil to cover food or cooking
dishes. Do not use foil to cover the
shelves or oven base, as this creates a
fire hazard.
Notes
•
Ensure that you stand back from
the appliance when opening the
oven door to allow any build up of
steam to escape.
•
Check that food is thoroughly
cooked and piping hot before
serving.
