Usage

Control panel

The appliance has an oven function dial, temperature dial, a display and function buttons, these are explained below:

Oven function dial

The oven function dial allows you to set the oven function mode for the oven. The dial has to be pressed in for it to pop out, before it can then be rotated clockwise or anti-clockwise to set the required oven function.

When the required type of function is set, the oven light that is inside the oven lights up. The temperature dial will also need to be adjusted when using any of the oven functions except the oven lamp and defrost functions.

Note: The dial must be put in the off position after each use and depressed.

Note: Always pre-heat the oven to the required temperature before cooking.

Symbol	Function
	Oven Lamp: Turns on the oven lamp.
	Defrost: Circulates air in the oven at room temperature (without the use of any heat) enabling quicker thawing of frozen food. Use to defrost food only.
	Double grill with fan: The fan distributes the heated air around the food. The grill element and fan switch on and off alternately. Hot air grilling is particularly suitable for grilling fish, poultry and larger pieces of meat.
	Double grill: The whole area below the grill heating element becomes hot. The inner and outer grill elements are on. Can be used to grill a large number of burgers, sausages fish or bread.
	Eco: Energy-saving cooking mode where the fan distributes the heated air around the food that is emitted from the top, bottom and rear heating elements. Note: The oven light will not operate when this function is selected. Best suited for small amounts of food that are best cooked gently; bakes, meat dishes, vegetables, frozen pizza and biscuits. Not suitable for cakes and large amount of food.
	Single grill: Part of the area below the grill heating element becomes hot. The inner grill element is on. Can be used to grill a small number of burgers, sausages fish or bread.
	Convection heating with fan: The fan distributes the heated air around the food that is emitted by the top and bottom heating elements. Best suited for baking, roasting all meat, vegetables and pre-cooked meals.
	Top & bottom heating: Heat is emitted evenly from the top and bottom, which provides convectional cooking. The top and bottom elements work together to provide convectional cooking. Best suited for single items that are centred in the oven: cakes and pizzas on baking trays, and for lean joints of beef, etc.
	Bottom heating: The temperature is emitted from below which provides heat to the base of food. Use bottom heating for baking and browning dishes from below, ideal for slow cooking dishes such as casseroles, stews, pastries and pizzas where a crispy base is desired.
	Convection heating: A fan with a ring heating element on the back of the oven ensures that the heated air is distributed evenly. You can bake cakes, pizza, biscuits, small cakes and puff pastry on two levels at the same time.

Temperature dial

Use the temperature dial to set the required temperature for the oven. The dial has to be pressed in for it to pop out, before it can then be rotated clockwise to set the required temperature.

The temperature can set between 50ºC and 250ºC.

The small light next to the temperature dial will be lit when the oven is heating. It goes out during pauses in the heating. The oven function dial will also need to be adjusted; turning the temperature dial alone will not make the oven heat up.

Note: The dial must be put in the off position after each use and the dial depressed.

Energy saving

The following advice is to help you save energy:

• Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe
• Open the oven door as infrequently as possible
• Use black enamelled baking trays, tins, etc. as they absorb the heat well.
• If you need to cook, bake or roast a number of different foods then it is best to do this one after the other. The oven will be at temperature, reducing the need to pre-heat the oven again.
• Cook more than 1 item at a time using the different accessories provided.

Accessories

Warning:

• Correct placement of the shelves between the side supports is imperative. This will ensure that food does not fall off or slide out when in the oven or being carefully removed from the oven.
• Ensure that you always insert the accessories into the cooking compartment the right way round.
• Shelves and the universal tray only must be placed and used between the 5 side supports.
• The universal tray or any other kind of baking tray should not be placed on a r

the bottom of the oven cavity.

The accessories can be inserted in the oven at 5 different levels. Always insert the accessories as far as they can go to ensure that they do not touch the door glass.

Wire shelf - for ovenware, cake tins, roasts, grilling and frozen meals. Slide the wire rack into the oven with the raised part at the back and at the top.

Universal tray - for cooking large quantities of food such as cakes, pastries, frozen food, etc. Can also be used under the wire rack to catch fat when grilling. Slide the baking tray into the oven with the sloping edge facing towards the oven door.

Wire rack - for grilling and roasting. Place the wire insert in the universal tray with the legs facing downwards. This ensures that dripping fat and meat juices are collected.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

Important notes:

• The appliance will become hot during operation, allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.
• Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
• Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
• Do not leave acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar) on stainless steel parts. Follow all instructions and warnings included with the cleaning agents.

How to clean

Observe the information in the table below to ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using the wrong type of cleaning agent. Do not use:

• Harsh or abrasive cleaning agents,
• Cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
• Hard scouring pads or sponges,
• High-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
• Clean all accessories by hand, do not clean in the dishwasher.

How to clean:

• After each use, clean all surfaces once they have cooled down. If any residue is left (baked-on food, drops of grease etc.), however little, will become stuck to the surface and more difficult to remove later.
• Always clean off any liquid as soon as it is spilt: you will save yourself any unnecessary effort.
• Where possible, do not allow salt to come into contact with the surfaces of the appliance.

Causes of damage:

• Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor: Do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a temperature of over 50ºC has been set. This will cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
• Water in a hot cooking compartment: Do not pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
• Moist food: Do not store moist food in the cooking compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods. This will damage the enamel.
• Fruit juice: When baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
• Cooling with the appliance door open: Only allow the cooking compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could be damaged over time.
• Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly when the appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.
• Never use the appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not sit on the appliance door, or place or hang anything on it. Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
• Inserting accessories: accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the cooking compartment as far as they will go.

Changing the bulb

If the bulb in the oven light fails, it must be replaced with a heat resistant 25 watt bulbs only. To replace the bulb follow the below steps:

Note: the oven lamp is located at the top right on the back of the oven.

1. Switch off the circuit breaker of the unit's mains outlet or fuse box.

2. Place a tea towel in the oven when it is cold to prevent damage.

3. Unscrew the glass cover by turning it anti-clockwise.

4. Replace the bulb with one of the same type.

5. Screw the glass cover back in.

6. Remove the tea towel and switch on the circuit breaker.
