To fit the main oven shelves
The shelves should be fitted with the straight
rods uppermost on the frame and the forms
towards the back of the oven. If not fitted
correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop
mechanism will be affected.
Hints and tips
•
Arrange the shelves in the required
positions before switching the oven on.
Shelf positions are numbered from the
bottom upwards.
•
When cooking more than one dish in
the oven, place dishes centrally on
different shelves rather than cluster
several dishes on one shelf, this will
allow the heat to circulate freely for the
best cooking results.
•
When batch baking one type of food,
e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of
similar size will be cooked in the same
time.
•
It is recommended that when baking
larger quantities the shelf positions
should be evenly spaced to suit the
load being cooked. A slight increase in
cooking time may be necessary.
•
Do not place baking trays directly on
the oven base as it interferes with the
oven air circulation and can lead to
base burning; use the lower shelf
position.
Do not place cookware and cooking
pots with rough bases e.g. cast iron
on the oven door as damage to the
glass may occur.
