The main oven

Heat zones
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 requiring 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 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.
Push in and hold the con-
trol knob, turn to gas mark
9.

Preheating
When you need to preheat the oven, we rec-
ommend you do so for 20 minutes. For recipes
needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pas-
tries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are
achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best
results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled
ready meals always preheat the oven first.
Using the main oven
Fully open the door before lighting the main
oven.
Press the ignition button immediately. Keep the control
knob depressed for up to 5 seconds, but no longer than
10 seconds. After this time release the controls. The
flame should remain alight. If after 10 seconds the
burner has not lit, stop operating the appliance and wait
at least 1 minute before attempting a further ignition of
the burner. When the burner has lit release the control
and ignition button, adjust the setting as required.
Turn the control knob to the off position. This is shown
by a dot.
