Conventional oven (top and 

base heat)

This function combines the heat from the top 

and base elements. It is particularly suitable for 

roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. 

Food cooked on the top shelf will brown and 

crisp faster than on the lower shelf, because the 

heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the 

base, as in ‘Fan assisted oven’ function. Similar 

items being cooked will need to be swapped 

around for even cooking. This means that foods 

requiring different temperatures can be cooked 

together, using the cooler zone in the lower half 

of the oven and hotter area to the top. 

Browning element 

This function uses the element in the top 

of the oven only. It is a useful function for the 

browning or fi nishing of pasta dishes, vegetables 

in sauce, shepherds pie and lasagne, the item to 

be browned being already hot before switching 

to the top element.

Base heat

This function uses the base element only. 

It will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or 

fi nish off cooking the base of a pastry case on a 

lower shelf. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow 

cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven 

or for plate warming. 

The Browning and Base heat functions are 

useful additions to your oven, giving you 

fl ex 

i bil i ty to fi nish off items to perfection. With 

use, you will soon realise how these functions 

can com bine to extend your cooking skills.

Handyrack

The maximum weight than can be held by the 

Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb). It should only be used 

with the supplied meat tin, which is designed 

to fi t the Handyrack. Any other vessel could be 

unstable.

The Handyrack fi ts on the oven door. Food 

cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it’s 

accessible when the door is open. It can be fi tted 

at two different heights. One of the oven shelves 

must be removed and the other positioned to 

suit. 

When the Handyrack is used in its highest 

position, other dishes can be cooked on the 

bot tom shelf position of the oven or standing on 

the base of the oven

When the Handyrack is used in its lowest 

position, other dishes can be cooked on the 

second shelf position of the oven or standing on 

the base of the oven.

To fi t the Handyrack, 

locate one side of it on the 

door bracket.

Then spring the other 

side out to clip it onto 

the other bracket.
