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 smaller quantities
of food. It gives especially good results
if used to cook fruitcakes, sweets and
savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is ideal for use as a
warming compartment. It can be used
to warm dishes and keep food hot.
Use the top oven when you want to
warm plates. Use the lowest setting on
the top oven temperature control.
There is a switch in the top door
which automatically switches
between Grill and Top Oven
cooking.
The top oven will only work with
the door closed.
Using the top oven
• Turn the ‘Top Oven/Grill’ control to
the required setting. Close the
top door.
Things to note
• The indicator neon will glow. It
may turn on and off during use to
show that the setting is being
maintained.
• The cooling fan for the controls
may operate after a time.
Do not place dishes, tins and trays
directly on the oven base as it
becomes very hot and damage will
occur.
To fit the top oven shelf
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.
Do not place cookware and
cooking pots with rough bases e.g.
cast iron on the oven door as
damage to the glass may occur.
