l
Turn the top oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
The top oven neon indicator will glow until the oven
has reached the desired temperature and then go
out. It will then cycle ON and OFF showing that the
oven temperature is being maintained.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
The cranked shelf must only be used in the top oven
compartment but a straight shelf from the main oven
may be used to provide alternative positions.
The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and
safety stop mechanism will be affected.
HINTS AND TIPS
l
Most cooking should be carried out using a oven
shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.
l
Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be
cooked in the main oven. However, they may be
cooked on a flat shelf placed on the base of the
top oven provided there is sufficient room for air
circulation around the food.
l
There should always be at least 2.5 cm (1")
between the top of the food and the element.
This gives best cooking results and allows room
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings,
etc.
l
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may

USES OF THE TOP OVEN
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is
designed for cooking on one level and for small quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook
fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a
temperature setting of 80-100°C on the top oven control dial.
