General Oven Tips
The wire shelves in an oven should always be pushed
firmly to the back of the oven. They 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.
Baking trays, roasting tins, etc., should be placed level
in the middle of the oven’s 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.
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.
The oven control settings and cooking
times given in the table opposite are
intended to be used only as a guide.
Individual tastes may require the
temperature to be altered to provide a
preferred result.
For the best results, pre-heat the oven until
the oven indicator light goes out.
When using recipes, reduce the temperature
by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.
The temperatures in the fanned ovens do not
vary with height - so you can use any shelf.
Always leave at least one runner space
between shelves when two-tier cooking.
Place baking trays, individual cake tins or
baking dishes in the middle of the oven
shelf.
