When I place the control on bake only the top element goes. Any idea's.

It seems the lower element is ‘slower’ than the top, grill element. I cleared my much-loved oven of its shelves and turned it on in the dark this morning and watched them heat up. The lower came on more gradually. If they were both the same it would be a ‘top grill, bottom grill’ setting. The lower element needs to be different from the top one. Check it out as I did and I hope you’ll see the same result. Cheers!

Hi Merv. Top and bottom element should heat if baking (no 7 with the chook illustration)

Hi Merv W, I also think that the top element being for grilling would be hotter so as to brown quickly ....

Hello Turtle - sorry I have taken a while to answer this . Here is a link to the manual which you can download. external link  - copy and paste it into your browser. This will be easier than me sending you a hard copy.

I find this a really useful oven.

Cheers

Can this be used to bake small to medium cakes?

Yes. I use it frequently for this purpose. Also for biscuits and sausage rolls. With these it is best to cook only one tray at a time.

Make sure you read the instruction book about which part of,the oven to use etc.

Yes, absolutely. The oven comes with a comprehensive instruction booklet with some really lovely baking recipes. Use these as a guide as to how and where to place the oven racks and what temperature to use.

I make amazing pizza in it as well, using the pizza tray that comes with the oven. I have found , that I need to invert and lower the oven rack from it's original position, for the last 5 minutes or so to properly brown the pizza base to my liking. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn. Cheers.
