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”).
