IMPORTANT!
Cooling/vent fan
This 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 the oven and blow warm air across the top of the
oven door.
Note: If the oven is still hot from cooking, the cooling fan
will keep running to cool the oven down and will switch
off by itself once cool.
CAUTION!
Using the oven
• Always cook with the oven door closed.
• Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door.
Do not allow it to fall open. Always support the door
using the door handle until it is fully open.
• Do not lean on an open oven door, or place heavy
items on it. This could damage the appliance. Take
care in the region of the hinges.
IMPORTANT!
Condensation and steam
This appliance is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam.
This steam makes it possible to cook in a steamy
environment ensuring that dishes are soft inside and crusty
on the outside. This process also reduces cooking time
and energy consumption. During cooking steam may be
produced and released when the door is opened. This is
absolutely normal.
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way a
boiling kettle does. When steam comes into contact with
the oven door glass it will condense and produce water
droplets. To reduce condensation, ensure that the oven is
well heated before placing food in the oven cavity.
Oven pre-heating is necessary before any cooking.
It is recommended that condensation is wiped away after
each use of the oven.
TIPS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour
etc. which affects the way they transfer heat to the food
inside them.
• Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
• Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
• To increase base browning simply lower the shelf
position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf
position.
• Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure
even browning.
• Single level cooking gives best results in conventional
modes. If cooking on more than one level use the fan
cooking function.
Replacing door glass panels
• Assemble the silicone spacers to the upper corners of
one of the clear glass panels. Position the panel into
the lower position of the door, ensuring the chamfered
corner of the panel is placed in the correct location as
shown in the image below.
• Insert the remaining smaller clear glass panel into the
middle position, ensuring the chamfered corner of the
panel is placed in the correct location as shown in the
image below.
• Insert the black bordered glass panel into the upper
position, ensuring the painted surface is facing the
downside as per the image below.
CLEANING THE QUAD GLAZED DOOR
Replacing the top door trim
• Hold the top door trim at each side and position it to
the inside edge of the glass.
• Push the trim down with its top edge over the glass
panel until the clip snap in on each side of the trim.
• Push the middle of the trim down to ensure it is
straight and firm against the glass panel.
Fitting the oven door
• Take hold of the oven door with a hand on each side
and with the door at an angle of 30˚, position the
recesses at the bottom of the door onto the hinge
arms of the oven. Let the door slide down the hinge
arms as far as it will go.
• Open the door fully to access the hinges.
• Rotate the ‘stirrups’ (see the image below) until they
lock into the hook. The oven door may now be closed
