Cooking guidelines
o Please refer to the information given on food packaging for
guidance on cooking temperatures and times. Once familiar with
the performance of your appliance, temperatures and times can
be varied to suit personal preference.
o Preheat the oven for at least 15 minutes before placing food into
the cavity.
o Make sure that frozen foods are thoroughly thawed before
cooking, unless the instructions on the food packaging advise
that you can “cook from frozen”.
o Before cooking, check that any unused accessories are removed
from the oven.
o Place cooking trays in the centre of the oven and leave gaps
between the trays to allow air to circulate.
o Try to open the door as little as possible to view the dishes.
Warnings
o Keep the oven door open when using the grill function and make
sure that the grill deflector is fitted.
o Do not use aluminium foil to cover the enamelled baking tray or
heat items wrapped in aluminium foil under the grill.
o You should also never line the base of your oven with aluminium
foil.
o During cooking, never place pans or cookware directly onto the
bottom of your oven. They should always be placed on the shelf
provided.
o The grill becomes extremely hot during operation, avoid touching
it inadvertently when handling the food which you are grilling.
o Important: Be careful when opening the door, to avoid contact
with hot parts and steam.
o When removing the enamelled baking tray, you should ALWAYS
use an oven glove.
