Note:
Ensure that there are no electric wires, gas or water pipes in the area where holes are to be made.
Components of the appliance may have sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.
1. Ensure that there is an electrical power point within adequate distance of the oven after it has been installed.
2. Ensure the aperture measures (H)600 x (W)560 x (D)570mm, in accordance with the positioning instructions detailed on the previous page.
3. Carefully and gently put the oven into the aperture recess, making sure that power cable can still be accessed.
4. Connect the oven to the electrical power point before pushing the oven into the aperture fully.
5. Once this is done open the oven door and secure the oven to the kitchen cabinet with two distance holding screws which fit the holes in the oven frame.
The appliance has an oven function dial, temperature dial, a display and function buttons, these are explained below:
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. |
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.

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.
