Never put items directly on

The oven must be preheated when
cooking frozen or chilled foods, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés, and whisked
sponges.
4
If you are not preheating the oven, the
cooking times in the following guide may
need to be extended, as they are based on
a preheated oven.
4
Put the oven shelves in the position
required before preheating the oven.
The oven shelf must be positioned with the up-stand
at the rear of the oven and facing up. Position baking
trays and roast-ing tins on the middle of the shelves,
and leave one clear shelf position between shelves, to
allow for circulation of heat.
