General Oven Tips
The wire shelves in an oven should always be pushed
firmly to the back of the oven.
Baking trays, roasting tins, etc., should be placed
level in the middle of the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all
trays and containers away from the sides of the oven
- otherwise, overbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size
of a baking tray is 340mm by 340mm for the left hand
(main) oven, and 230mm by 320mm for the right hand
(tall) oven.
Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven
than in a conventional oven. When using recipes,
reduce the temperature by 10°C and the cooking time
by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in the fanned oven
does not vary with height in the oven - so you can use
any shelf.
The shelves should not be fitted directly one above
the other. When cooking on more than one shelf
always leave at least one runner space between
them.
Always leave a ‘finger's width’ between dishes on the
same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely
around them.
The Cook & Clean oven panels (see 'Cleaning your
Cooker') work better when fat splashes are avoided.
Cover meat when cooking.
To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot
fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or brush lightly
with cooking oil.
If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish, preheat a
baking tray for 15 minutes before placing the dish in the
centre of the tray.
Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking,
place them on a baking tray.
Oven Shelves
The shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards
As well as the flat shelf, some models are supplied with
a drop shelf, which increases the spacing possibilities:
You can easily remove and refit the oven shelves, as
follows:
Pull the shelf forward until the back of the shelf is
stopped by the shelf stop bumps in the oven sides.
Lift up the front of the shelf so the back of the shelf
will pass under the shelf stop and then pull the shelf
forward:
To refit the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove in the
oven side and push the shelf back until the ends hit the
shelf stop. Lift up the front so that the shelf ends clear
the shelf stops, and then lower the front so that the
shelf is level, and push it fully back.
