COOKING TEST COOKING GUIDE COOKING GUIDE
(continued)
• For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.
• Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
• The grill tray can be used in the oven as a baking dish.
• Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you
switch it on.
• Keep edges of trays at least 40mm from the side
of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and
ensures even cooking.
• Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
• Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven
with other foods. This will cause food to steam and
not brown.
• After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for
some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry
bread.
• Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will
prevent splattering oil on the sides of the oven and
the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue
which is very difficult to remove.
• For sponges and cakes use aluminium, bright finished
or non-stick utensils.
• Remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting
or baking.
Oven shelf location
Your oven has 5 positions for mounting the shelves or
grill dish carrier. These are numbered from 1 (the lowest
shelf position) to 5 (the highest shelf position). See
diagram.

To give maximum space above and below the shelves,
load them in this way:
• When cooking with 1 shelf, use position 2 or 3.
• When cooking with 2 shelves, use position 1 and 3.
• When grilling use position 4 or 5.
NOTE: Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of
food at the same time e.g. 2 trays of scones, small cakes
or sausage rolls.
