GENERAL HINTS AND TIPS
CAUTION
Using the grill
Separate Grill Grill In Oven
Grill with door openGrill dish must be fully inserted (Refer to SEPARATE GRILL DISH INSERTION)Grill with door closed
Fan Forced· Make sure shelves are evenly spaced· When baking more than one dish in fan forced oven, place dishes centrally on shelves rather than several dishes on one shelf· When the oven is full you may need to allow a slightly longer baking time· When using different size trays or cooking different types of food, cooking times may vary for each dish
General hintsFor best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutesThe material and finish of baking trays and dishes used will affect the way foods are baked, especially base browning· Enamelware, anodised aluminium, dark bakeware or non-stick interiors and coloured exteriors will assist in maintaining or reducing the baking time and increase base browning· Ovenproof glassware or ceramics are poor conductors of heat The shiny surface of aluminium or polished steel utensils and trays also reflects the heat rather then passing it through to the food being baked· Always place dishes in the centre of the shelf to ensure even browning· Stand casserole dishes on a baking tray to prevent food from spilling onto the base of the oven· Use ovenproof cookware, which will withstand temperatures of 250°C· Use shallow casserole dishes in preference to deeper ones as this shortens cooking time in the oven
CAUTION· DO NOT place baking trays and oven dishes directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven.· DO NOT place oven dishes directly on the oven base.TIPS AND INFORMATIONCondensation and steam · During cooking steam may be produced which can bereleased when opening the oven door This is quite normal · If there is any build-up of condensation on the oven doorit is recommended that it be carefully wiped away either during or after cookingWARNINGAlways stand back from heated oven when opening oven door to allow any build-up of steam or heat to release.SEPARATE Grill dish insertion
CAUTION· DO NOT place dishes, trays or baking pans directly on the oven base as they become very hot and will crack and craze the oven liner.· DO NOT use baking trays larger than 30 x 35cm (12 x 14 inches) as they will restrict the circulation of the heat and may affect cooking performance of the oven.Conventional Oven· The shelf position is critical The temperature in centre of the oven is the temperature shown on the oven control knob Single shelf baking gives optimal cooking results· DO NOT place baking trays, oven dishes or foil directly on the base of oven, as trapped heat will crack and craze the floor of the oven liner
Ensure this wing touches the rackwire at rearWARNINGDoor glass is a tough and durable material designed to withstand heating and cooling without breaking. However it must be remembered that it is glass and may break, therefore must be treated with care. If you have any questions about the glass in the oven please contact the Service Centre on 13 13 49.
