Before you use the ovens you should wipe them out with a damp cloth to

remove any dust.

Heat zones

Main oven - There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature

in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen.

The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the

lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven

is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of these

heat zones when you are cooking foods that

need different temperatures all at the same time.

If you are cooking more than one tray of

similar items, for example cakes or biscuits,

swap the trays around during cooking. Or you can remove the top tray

when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to

finish cooking.

Second oven - You should turn food round during the cooking time.

Preheating

You do not need to preheat the main or second oven for casseroling

and so on.

Preheat the ovens for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food

such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures.

When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the

instructions on the packaging. When you are using the second oven to

reheat food you should preheat the oven to gas mark 8. When you need

to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for 20 minutes.

Oven shelves

You can slot the oven shelves into any of five

positions in the main oven and any of the two

positions in the second oven. Positions are

counted from the top downwards.

The shelf in the grill/second oven is

different from the shelves in the main oven.

Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate

underneath it in the grill/second oven. The

plate may glow red when you are using the

oven. This will not affect the cooking

performance.

Most second oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf

provided in shelf position 1. However when cooking a small joint or a
