USING YOUR OVEN

Understanding your oven functions

Your oven will have a selection of the following functions. Refer to “Description of your appliance” to confirm what functions are available to you.

Oven

Refer to cooking guide for more information.

Fan Forced

Heat comes from the gas “base heat” burner which is then circulated by the fan. This fan circulates the hot air around the oven cavity so that you can put your food in different places in the oven and still cook them at the same time.

You can use the “Fan Forced” function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating cooked foods, pastries and complete oven meals. It will cook at a lower temperature and be faster than baking. Please note that some variation in browning is normal.

Bake

Heat comes from the gas “base heat” burner below the food. The bottom burner is below the floor of the oven which is controlled by the thermostat and will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature.

You can use the “bake” function for single trays of biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.

  • For best results use silver or shiny trays.

Defrost

The “defrost” function uses low temperature air which is circulated by the fan. You can defrost (thaw) your food before you cook it. Also you may use your “defrost” to raise your yeast dough or to dry fruit, vegetables or herbs.

Grill

Refer to grilling guide for more information.

Grill (grill in oven models only)

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 oven door closed. 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. You can slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the upper pairs of support rails.

Fan & Grill (grill in oven models only)

“Fan & Grill” offers you the benefits of both “bake” and traditional “grill” functions. The grill element turns on and off to maintain the set temperature while the fan circulates the heated air. The oven door remains closed for “Fan & Grill”. You can use “Fan & Grill” for large cuts of meat in the oven which gives you a result that is similar to “rotisserie” cooked meat. Put your food on a shelf in the second lowest shelf position. Put the grill dish on the lowest shelf position to catch any spills. When using “fan grill” it is not necessary to turn the food over during the cooking cycle. Set temperature to 180°C.

Separate grill (separate grill models only)

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. 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.

For models with a separate grill, the door must be left open while grilling.

IMPORTANT
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 or grill door.

NOTE: (Model WVG655 only) 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

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 pre-heated before placing food in the oven cavity. It is recommended that condensation is wiped away after each use of the oven.

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.

  • 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 a fan cooking function.

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 and the oven burner will ignite. When the set temperature is reached, the gas burner flame goes out and the indicator light goes off. When the oven temperature falls below the set temperature the flame automatically re-ignites and the oven indicator light comes on again.

CAUTION: 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.

Pre-heating your appliance

For best results when baking you must preheat your oven for 30 minutes. Preheat grill for 3 minutes to obtain best results. Pre-heating your appliance allows it to reach the required temperature quickly and efficiently.

When baking bread or cakes, load the oven as quickly as possible after pre-heating, only leaving the oven door open for the shortest time. This will minimise loss of heat from the oven and ensure the best results.

With “bake” or “fan forced bake”

  • It is recommended you preheat your appliance when cooking or baking.
  • Set the desired preheat temperature, by rotating your oven temperature selector.

Once the oven has been preheated, place your food into the oven, close the door and set the timer if you desire.

With “grill”

  • Preheat the grill for at least 3 minutes to obtain best results. This will help to seal the natural juices of steak, chops and other meats for a better flavour.

Cooking with your timer

CAUTION: Set the timer clockwise. Do not force anticlockwise or damage to the timer will result.

120 minute “Auto off” timer

The 120 minute timer features an automatic oven cut off.

This means that a cooking period of up to 120 minutes can be set. When the timer has counted back to “Auto off”, a bell will sound and the oven will automatically switch off.

Once automatic baking is complete, return to manual operation by setting the timer to the “OFF” mark.

Operating the electronic clock (selected models only)

General features

The oven is equipped with an electronic clock that can be used to turn the oven on and off automatically. The Cook Time function automatically turns the oven off after a set amount of time. The End Time function is used to set the time of day you want the cooking cycle to finish. A “Delayed start” is possible by combining the Cook Time and End Time features to switch the oven on and off at a specific time during the day.

NOTE: If a timer mode is set, then it is not possible to switch the display off.

Electronic burner control

Your gas oven is fitted with an electronic controller which manages the operation of the burner and monitors the flame. This controller includes features which ensure the safe operation of your appliance and will prevent the build up of unburnt gas should a fault occur.

It is normal for the flame to turn on and off during cooking to maintain a stable temperature in the oven. The thermostat indicator light indicates when the flame is on or igniting (indicator on), or when the flame is off (indicator off).

The burner flame can be seen by viewing through the 2 holes in the front of the burner cover.

Ignition and response to ignition failure

The electronic controller attempts to ignite the flame when an oven function and temperature is selected (the thermostat indicator light changes from off to on). The controller makes up to 2 attempts to ignite the flame, stopping if a flame is detected by the controller. If a flame is not detected after 2 attempts the burner and ignition are automatically switched off and a 90 second delay will occur. During this delay the controller does not respond to the “function” and “temperature” controls.

At the end of this delay, switch the Function or Temperature control off and leave off for at least 5 seconds. Then switch the Function and Temperature control on again to re-attempt ignition.

If the oven controls are left on when the delay ends then ignition is not attempted until the Function or Temperature control is first turned off for at least 5 seconds.

Response to flame failure

If the controller cannot detect flame due to a fault, then the controller will firstly respond by attempting to re-light the burner with a sequence of up to 3 attempts. If the re-lighting sequence is not successful the burner will be shut off.

The re-lighting sequence includes up to 3 attempts to re-light the burner, stopping if a flame is detected by the controller. If a flame is not detected after the re-lighting sequence the burner and ignition are automatically switched off and a delay of 90 seconds will occur. During this delay the controller will not respond to the “function” and “temperature” controls.

At the end of this delay, switch the Function or Temperature control off and leave it off for at least 5 seconds. Then switch the Function or Temperature control on again to re-attempt ignition.

If the oven controls are left on when the delay ends then ignition will not be attempted until the Function or Temperature control is turned off for at least 5 seconds.

Recognising a safety shut-down condition

During normal cooking the thermostat indicator light is on when the burner flame is igniting or on, and the thermostat indicator light is off when the flame is off.

If an oven function and temperature is selected and the thermostat indicator light is on, but the flame is not on or attempting to ignite, then the controller has invoked a safety shutdown of the burner and a 90 second delay will occur. During this delay the controller does not respond to the “function” and “temperature” controls.

At the end of this delay, switch the Function or Temperature control off and leave off for at least 5 seconds. Then switch the Function or Temperature control on again to re-attempt ignition.

Power failure

In the event of an interruption to mains power, the restoration of power will not cause the burner to re-ignite if the controls were left on. However the grill element will resume heating on models which do not have an electronic clock.

To resume operation of the appliance after the power has been restored:

  1. If the appliance has an electronic clock then set the time of day on the electronic clock.
  2. Switch the Function or Temperature control off and leave off for at least 5 seconds. Then switch the Function and Temperature control on again to re-attempt ignition.

Normal operation of the appliance will now resume.

Oven shelves

IMPORTANT

  • Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
  • Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you switch it on.
  • Keep edges of baking dishes at least 40mm from the side of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and ensures even cooking.
  • Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
  • Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven with other foods. This will cause food to steam and not brown.
  • After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry bread.
  • Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will prevent the splattering of oil on the sides of the oven and the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue which is very difficult to remove.
  • When cooking things which require a high heat from below (e.g. tarts), place the cooking dish on a scone tray in the desired shelf position.
  • For sponges and cakes use aluminium, bright finished or non-stick utensils.
  • Always remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting or baking.

Oven shelf location

The oven has 5 positions for shelves (as shown in the diagram below). To give maximum space above and below the shelves, load them in this way:

When cooking with 1 shelf, position at 1 or 2.

When cooking with 2 shelves, position them at 2 and 4.

For more detailed shelf locations. Refer to cooking tables for individual cooking functions.

Roasting meat

  • Place the meat in the oven and set the temperature between 180°C and 200°C. (It is recommended to wrap your meats in an oven roasting bag or foil to prevent fats and oils from splattering, making it easier to clean your oven.)
  • Use the grill/oven dish and grill insert. Place the meat on the insert.
  • Do not pierce the meat, as this will allow juices to escape.
  • When the meat is cooked, take the roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium foil and leave to stand for about 10 minutes. This will help retain the juices when the meat is carved. The table shows temperatures and cooking times for different kinds of meat. These may vary depending on the thickness or bone content of the meat.

Roasting poultry and fish

  • Place the poultry or fish in an oven set at a moderate temperature of 180°C.
  • Place a layer of foil over the fish for about three quarters of the cooking time.

The table shows temperatures and cooking times for different kinds of fish and poultry. These may vary depending on the thickness or bone content of the meat.

COOKING GUIDE

Choosing the best oven settings

The following table is intended as a guide and experience may show some variation in cooking times necessary to meet individual requirements. It may be necessary to change some cooking times and temperatures from your previous oven. For best results when baking preheat your oven for 30 minutes.

Conventional cooking

* Counting from the bottom shelf up. Refer to “oven shelf location” section for more detailed information.

Fan forced cooking

* Counting from the bottom shelf up. Refer to “oven shelf location” section for more detailed information.

GRILLING GUIDE

Grilling hints

WARNING
Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use. Excessive fat build up may cause a fire.
As a method of cooking, grilling can be used to:

  • Enhance the flavours of vegetables, fish, poultry and meat.
  • Seal the surface of the food and retain the natural juices.

NOTE: Below is a table indicating the door position whilst grilling for each of the product types.

This table shows how to grill different types of meat:

Guide to better grilling

IMPORTANT

Definite times cannot be given for grilling as it is dependant on the size of the food and your own tastes.

These times should only be used as a rough guide and remember to turn the food over halfway through the cooking process (except with fan grill).

For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:

  1. Remove oven/grill dish and grill insert and preheat grill for about 3 minutes.
  2. Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the inside remains raw.
  3. Do not place aluminium foil under the food as this prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could result in a fire.
  4. Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil or marinade.
  5. Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface allowing juices to escape.

Fan grill (multifunction grill in oven models only)

If your appliance has fan grill as a function, this will assist the grilling process by circulating the heat evenly around the food. The recommended temperature setting is 180°C for all fan grilling functions.

  1. Place the oven/grill dish on the bottom rack.
  2. Place meat/poultry on an oven shelf above the oven/ grill dish.
  3. Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven is still warm.

There is no need to turn the meat as both sides are cooked at the same time.

Grilling with separate grill underbench

Your separate grill underbench appliance comes with a handle accessory to pull out and push in the grill tray frame.

WARNING: Operating the oven may result in a hot grill tray frame even without the grill being used. As it may be a hot surface, it is not recommended to touch the grill tray frame directly.
