n addition, gas ovens are ideal for cooking all dishes that require high “bottom heat” (1). We
recommendtheuseofelectricovensfordishesthathavetobecookedinadryatmosphereorat
verylowtemperatures(below150°C/302°F)suchasmeringuesandcertaincakesandpastries.
(1)“Bottom heat” is obtained through heat from the lower part of the oven, i.e. in the case of a gas
oven, the location where the heat source is situated. Bottom heat is recommended for cooking fruit
tarts, quiche lorraines, etc. for example.

Before using the oven for the first time, it is advisable to switch it on without anything in it at the
maximum thermostat position for 1/2 hour in order to eliminate
the smell of fumes due to the composition of the mineral wool
used to insulate the oven and residues from greases applied
during manufacture. These odours will disappear after the oven
has been used a few times.
Useful hints :
- Use pans with high edges for roasting in order to minimise
greasesplashes.
