A - Installation check and warnings

IMPORTANT:

Please ensure that the oven cavity, venting and wiring is as specified in the relevant section G of this manual.

A licensed electrician with relevant qualifications must perform electrical work when installing or servicing the appliance. The supply cable and fuse rating must be suitable for the appliance.

Ventilation opening must not be covered or obstructed in any way.

DO NOT use aluminum foil on the base of ovens

The use of foil on the base of the oven to avoid spillage and improve cleaning is not recommended. The bottom element is concealed under the base of the oven liner (not exposed). Foil or dishes with reflective qualities must never be placed on the base of the oven during cooking as the concentration of direct and reflected heat will damage the enamel surface.

Damage resulting from such use is not covered under the provisions of the warranty.

Some smoke and smell may be noticed during the initial heat up cycle. This should quickly dissipate.

If abnormal levels of smoke are observed (i.e.: it is not food that is burning), have the appliance thoroughly checked.

Canceling automatic settings

To cancel a program:

Press plus and minus button simultaneously for minimum 3 seconds.

NOTE:

On oven start up or possibly at other times, due to electricity supply deviations – the programmer may freeze on a function – if this occurs we recommend that, after checking other solutions without success, it is recommended that power supply be disconnected to the appliance and allow it to be in this position for some minutes before reconnecting. This may have a result of clearing the frozen position allowing you to reset the programmer for normal operation.

Cooling Fan

The Single and Double Ovens are provided with a cooling fan motor to reduce the heat around the oven. The fan motor is controlled by a sensor, which will start when the temperature achieves the level pre-fixed and stop working when the temperature is reduced accordingly.

This safeguards both the oven and the adjoining cupboards from the possibility of temperature damage.

Safety Thermostat

Your oven is fitted with an over temperature sensor that will automatically shut down your oven for a period if it is deemed to be overheatingthis sensor is fitted to the rear wall of the oven, inside the outer case – it will only activate in extreme circumstances and is provided as protection to the appliance and the adjoining furnishings. If activated it will shut down the appliance for a short time and will automatically reset allowing normal operations – you should consult your service technician if the problem re-occurs.
