Oven furniture
Oven shelves
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing upwards.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray 350mm x 280mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin 370mm x 320mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.

before cooking.

■ Preheat the oven to 170˚C and
cook for 30 minutes, then adjust
the oven control to (slow
cook setting) for the remainder of
the cooking time.
■ Slow cooking times will be about
3 times as long as conventional
cooking times.
■ Do not open the oven door unnec-
essarily during slow cooking, as
this will result in heat loss at low
temperatures.
■ Always use dishes with tightly
fitting lids. To rectify badly fitting
lids, place foil over the dish
underneath the lid.
Aluminium foil
Use foil only to cover food or cooking
dishes, using foil to cover the shelves
or oven base creates a fire hazard.
