Set your oven to this

No oven dial has a 232.2 °C mark. Recipes treat 450 °F and 230 °C as the same setting — gas mark 8 — and the gap between them is smaller than the swing of a domestic thermostat. Set a fan-forced oven to 210 °C.

450 °F is pizza and bread heat — short cooking times, fast browning, and a preheat that needs a full twenty minutes to be real. On a metric oven it is 230 °C.
