Set your oven to this

No oven dial has a 482 °F mark. Recipes treat 250 °C and 475 °F as the same setting — gas mark 9 — and the gap between them is smaller than the swing of a domestic thermostat. Set a fan-forced oven to 230 °C.

250 °C is the maximum on most domestic ovens, reached only for pizza, naan and flatbreads where a short, ferocious bake is the whole technique.
