Using the Conventional Oven

When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook in a
single level and is particularly suitable for dishes
which require extra base browning such as pizzas,
quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top
browning also cook well in the conventional oven.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with
two shelves. It is important that these shelves are
correctly positioned as shown in the diagram.

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle. The oven is vented to allow
some of this steam to escape. However, always stand
back from the cooker when opening the oven door to
allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense
and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and
is not caused by a fault on the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
