Shelf positionsare numbered from the top downwards.12345Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelfand there is sufficient room around the bakingtray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.• Do not push dishes too far back as food willburn if it overhangs the burner flame.• Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray onthe shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven baseand to help reduce cleaning.• The material and finish of the baking tray anddishes used affect base browning.Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensilsincrease base browning. Shiny aluminium orpolished steel trays reflect the heat away andgive less base browning.• When cooking more than one dish in the oven,place dishes centrally on different shelvesrather than cluster several dishes on one shelf,this will allow the heat to circulate freely for thebest cooking results.• If you are cooking more than one tray of similaritems, for example cakes or biscuits, swap thetrays during cooking or you can remove the toptray when the food is cooked and move thelower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking.• Do not place baking trays directly on the ovenbase as it interferes with the oven aircirculation and can lead to base burning; usethe lower shelf position.Do not place cookware and cooking potswith rough bases e.g. cast iron on the ovendoor as damage to the glass may occur.
