USAGE
Small Oven Grill
The “grill” directs radiant heat from the powerful upper
element onto the food. You can use the “grill” function for
tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese
toasties and other quick cooking foods. Grill with the grill
door open for PXR688 and PXR698. Preheat your grill for
3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the
natural juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour.
The grill dish is to be positioned between the upper pair
of support rails.
Grill (split)
The “split grill” works in the same way as a full width grill but
with the added advantage of being able to optimise the energy
usage for smaller servings. Grill with the oven door open.
Fast heat up (POR783 and POR883 models only)
“Fast heat” can be selected in the initial heat up phase
of any cooking function. During “fast heat” the heat comes
from the element surrounding the fan as well as the smaller
element above the food. This allows you to preheat your
oven 30% quicker than on standard “bake”. See page 18
for more information.
Function 11
Pyrolytic cleaning
The “Pyrolytic cleaning” function is used for cleaning
the main oven. It cleans by burning off the spatters and
accumulated dirt and grease from the oven liner, at high
temperature. This process produces ash which can be
wiped out of the oven cavity.
Cooling/Venting fan
Your built-in appliance is fitted with a cooling fan.
This prevents your kitchen cabinet from overheating and
reduces the condensation inside the oven. It will operate
whenever you are using your oven or grill and will blow
warm air across the top of the oven door.
NOTE: For selected models, if the oven is still hot from
cooking, the cooling fan will keep running to cool the oven
down and will switch off automatically when cool.
Condensation
Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may
happen when you are cooking large quantities of food
from a cold start. You can minimise condensation by:
• Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking
to a minimum.
• Making sure that the oven door is firmly closed.
• Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly
smaller than the water container.
• Cooking casseroles with the lid on.
NOTE: If you are using water in cooking, this will turn
to steam and may condense outside your appliance.
This is not a problem or fault with your oven.
Operating your oven temperature selector
A thermostat controls the temperature in your appliance.
The temperature can be selected within the specified range.
To set the temperature, turn the temperature selector in
a clockwise direction to the desired setting. An indicator
light above the temperature selector will come on. When
the temperature is reached, the heating source switches
itself off and the indicator light goes out. When the oven
temperature falls below the desired setting, the heating
source switches on and the indicator light comes on again.
Once the food is cooked, turn the temperature selector
back in an anti-clockwise direction. Do not force it right
round in a clockwise direction as this will result in damage
to the thermostat.
NOTE: For multifunction ovens the desired cooking function
must be selected before the oven will operate. Once the
desired function has been selected, use the temperature
selector to set the required temperature.
