The oven has different heat zones – the thermostat settings refer to the temperature
on the middle shelf position; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler. Two
shelves provide five possible cooking levels enabling full use of the different
temperatures inside the oven.
Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent if from being pulled out too far when attending
to food. Shelves are removed from the oven by pulling them out to the stop and then
lifting them at the front to withdraw.
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 300mm x 350mm
(12” x 14”).
TO USE THE OVEN
1.
Check that the electricity supply is switched on and the timer is set to
manual mode.
2.
Place oven shelves in the chosen positions (refer to cooking charts).
3.
Push in and turn the oven control knob fully anti-clockwise. Sparking
will continue until the burner is lit.
4.
Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting (refer to cooking
chart). There is a delay of about one minute whilst the safety device
operates before the burner comes on full.
5.
To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.
NEVER leave the oven door open for long periods as this could cause damage to the
control knobs.
Never place dishes on the oven base over the burner.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should cease after a short
period of use.
