Baking trays and dishes
Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all
dishes and the sides of the oven so the
heat can circulate properly.
Do not push dishes too far back as food
will burn if it overhangs the burner flames.
For the best results from the oven we recommend that you use a baking
tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which is larger
than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking.
Roasting
For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to
prevent splashing.
It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when
roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended
cooktimes.
If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be
prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb).
When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be
required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is
fully cooked.

The oven
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays and
so on over the oven burner. This will
damage the appliance as well as the
cookware and possibly the floor
covering underneath the appliance.
