BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
When First Switching On
The oven has a 24 hour clock. When the oven is first
switched on at the wall the electronic display will
automatically show 12.00, and the 'Time' ( ) neon
will also flash.
To set the time of day and use the timer refer to
instructions on page 8.
Rating Plate
This is situated on the lower front frame of the oven
and can be seen upon opening the door.
Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on
the back or top of some models (where applicable).
The oven must be protected by a suitably rated fuse
or circuit breaker. The rating of the oven is given on
the rating plate.
The rating plate must not be removed from the
oven front frame as this may invalidate the
guarantee.
Preparing To Use Your Oven
Clean the ovens with a soft cloth and hot soapy water
and wash the grill and oven furniture before use.
The grill and ovens should be heated without food to
burn off any residue from the elements. To do this
run the ovens at 220°C for 10 - 15 minutes.
The procedure should be repeated with the grill for
approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
During this period and odour may be emitted, it is
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
Condensation and Steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens are vented
to allow some of this steam to escape. However,
always stand back from the appliance when opening
the oven doors to allow any build up of steam or heat
to be released. If the steam comes into contact with
a cool surface on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a
trim, it will condense and produce water droplets.
This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on
the appliance.
To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly wipe
away condensation and any soilage from the
appliance surfaces.
Cookware
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm
(12” x 14”) as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.
Do not place bakeware directly on the second oven
base when the oven is on as damage to the oven
enamel and bakeware will occur.

6. THINGS TO NOTE
· In the event of an interruption of the electricity
supply, the timer will reset itself to zero, and all
programming will be cancelled.
7. AUTOMATIC COOKING
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking. Always ensure commercially prepared
food is well within its use by date and that home
prepared food is fresh and of good quality.
When cooking is complete, do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
Always ensure food in the oven has been
covered before cooking if it is not possible to
remove food immediately after cooking.
11
THE DUAL GRILL
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PART MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN
SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes, the
centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food.
USING THE GRILL
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.
1. To operate the grill turn the grill control clockwise
for full grill or anticlockwise for centre section
only.
2. The highest number represents the hottest
setting and the lowest number represents the
coolest setting.
3. Ensure the second oven control is in the OFF
position '0'.
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN
DURING GRILLING. IF CLOSED THE
ELEMENTS WILL SWITCH OFF AND THE
OVEN LIGHT WILL TURN ON AND OFF AS
A WARNING.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The cooling fan for the controls will operate in
conjunction with the grill. For more information on
the operation of the cooling fan see page 5.
· The grill indicator neon will glow until the desired
power level has been reached. It will turn ON
and OFF periodically during cooking showing that
the temperature is being maintained.
USING THE TELESCOPIC RUNNERS
(where fitted)
1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back
into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf.
2. Holding the front edge of the shelf with both
hands, place the rear shelf forms over the
telescopic runners.
3. Slide the shelf into position, lifting slightly at the
front so that the shelf locates into the retaining
hooks.
To remove, raise the front edge and withdraw the
shelf.
FORM
RETAINING
HOOK
· The outer grill element may appear to glow
slightly brighter than the inner element. This is
quite normal
· The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the grill
compartment.
· Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident
as the grill cleans itself.
12
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
1. To attach the handle, place the wirework under
the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate
hooks over the top of the grill pan.
2. Slide the handle to the left and over the central
bump on the grill pan.
Ensure the handle is correctly located. The
grill pan handle should be in place when
grilling.
3. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the
right and lift the handle away from the cut out
on the grill pan.
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is
positioned centrally beneath the grill.
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn to attend food during
cooking.
If your model is fitted with telescopic runners in
position 3, the grill pan can be withdrawn on the
shelf.

HINTS AND TIPS
· Most foods should be placed on the grid in the
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift
the food out of the fats and juices.
· Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food. Position
the food close to the element for faster cooking
and further away for more gentle cooking.
· Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to
minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish
lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep
them moist during cooking.
· Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed around the outer
edges or underneath the grid when grilling
meats.
· When toasting bread, we suggest that the top
runner position is used with the grid in its 'high'
position.
13
· Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes
to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat
setting and the shelf position as necessary during
cooking.
· The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.
· When using the centre section grill, ensure food
is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly
beneath the grill element.
Note
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan,
this can be ordered from your local Service Force
Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.

THE SECOND OVEN
The second oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is
designed for cooking smaller quantities of food on one shelf. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit
cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.
The second oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a
temperature setting of 80°C - 100°C on the second oven temperature control.
USING THE SECOND OVEN
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.
1. Ensure the grill control is in the off, '0' position.
2. Turn the second oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The second oven indicator neon will glow until
the oven has reached the desired temperature
and then go out. It will turn ON and OFF
periodically during cooking showing that the
temperature is being maintained.
· The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a time. For more information on the operation of
the cooling fan, see page 5.
· The internal oven light will come on.
Dishes, tins or trays should not be placed
directly on the oven floor as it becomes
very hot and damage will occur.
TO FIT THE SECOND OVEN SHELF
The cranked shelf should be fitted with the straight
rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards
the back of the oven.
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until
the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front so
that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf clear.
To install a shelf, reverse the above steps. Each
shelf position has an upper and lower support wire,
ensure the shelf is placed between these two support
wires.
15
HINTS AND TIPS
· All cooking should be carried out using shelf
positions one and two. Shelf positions are
counted from the bottom upwards. Shelf position
3 should be reserved for grilling only.
· There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”)
between the top of the food and the element.
This gives best cooking results and allows room
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc.
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones bread etc.,
place the tins or baking trays centrally below the
element.
· Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf
and there is sufficient room around the baking
tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.
· Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays on to
prevent spillage onto the oven base and to help
reduce cleaning.
· The material and finish of the baking tray and
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick
utensils increase base browning. Shiny
aluminium of polished steel trays reflect the heat
away and give less base browning.
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as
a baking tray as this will increase base
browning of the food.
· Because of the smaller cooking space and lower
temperatures, shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the
recommendations on page 19.
· For economy leave the door open for the shortest
possible time, particularly when placing food into
a pre-heated oven.
DO NOT place cookware and cooking pots
with rough bases e.g. cast iron on the oven
door as damage to the glass may occur.
16
THE MAIN FAN OVEN
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For
recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven
is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals preheat the oven first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 19. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes,
using a conventional oven.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
USING THE FAN OVEN
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.
1. Turn the main oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven.
· The main oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically
during cooking showing that the temperature is
being maintained.
· The oven fan will operate continually during
cooking.
· The cooling fan for the controls operates after a
period of time.
· The internal oven light will come on.
· If an automatic programme has been set, the
oven fan and light do not come on until cooking
begins.
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until
the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front so
that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf clear.
To install a shelf, reverse the above steps. Each
shelf position has an upper and lower support wire,
ensure the shelf is placed between these two support
wires.
17
USING THE TELESCOPIC RUNNERS
(where fitted)
1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back
into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf.
2. Holding the front edge of the shelf with both
hands, place the rear shelf forms over the
telescopic runners.
3. Slide the shelf into position, lifting slightly at the
front so that the shelf locates into the retaining
hooks.
To remove, raise the front edge and withdraw the
shelf.
Ensure the shelf is positively located before
using.
Note
Should you wish to purchase a telescopic runner kit,
this can be ordered from your local Service Force
Centre by quoting part number (BAZ D02).
HINTS AND TIPS
· Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions
are counted from the bottom upwards.
FORM
RETAINING
HOOK
· When cooking more than one dish in the fan
oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves
rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf,
this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the
best cooking results.
· When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria
sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be
cooked in the same time.
· It is recommended that when baking larger
quantities the shelf positions should be evenly
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight
increase in cooking time may be necessary.
DO NOT place cookware and cooking pots
with rough bases e.g. cast iron on the oven
door as damage to the glass may occur.
· DO NOT place baking trays directly on the oven
floor as it interferes with the oven air circulation
and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf
position.
· The use of excessively high temperatures can
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary to
reduce temperatures slightly. Refer to the
recommendations given in the oven cooking
chart, on page 19.

DEFROST FEATURE
This main oven function enables you to defrost most foods without heat faster than some conventional methods as
the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be
served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc.
USING DEFROST FEATURE
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.
1. Turn the main oven temperature control to the
defrost setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The oven indicator neon may glow and turn on
and off when defrosting.
· The oven fan and oven light will come on
· The cooling fan does not operate.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Place the frozen food in a single layer where
possible and turn it over half way through the
defrosting process.
· The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by
room temperature. On warm days defrosting will
be faster than on cooler days.
· It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry
slowly in the fridge. However, this process can
be accelerated by using the defrost function.
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns,
cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks
etc., can be thawed in 1 – 2 hours.
· A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in
approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as
soon as possible during the thawing process.
21
· Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be
thawed using the defrost function.
· All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed
thoroughly before cooking.
· Always cook thoroughly immediately after
thawing.
· DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it
is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store
cooked food in the fridge, once it has cooled.
· Care must always be taken when handling foods
in the home. Always follow the basic rules of
food hygiene to prevent bacterial growth and
cross contamination when defrosting, preparing,
cooking cooling and freezing foods.
22
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD
Care must be taken when handling foods in the
home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene
to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross
contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking,
cooling, defrosting and freezing foods:-
1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good
quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable
source and buy the ‘freshest’ looking package –
avoid shop-worn labels or produce covered in
dust.
2. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you
cannot store them straight away. The use of an
insulated container when shopping is advisable.
3. Buy and consume foods prior to the ‘Sell by’ or
‘Best Before’ date.
4. When you arrive home, place perishable foods in
the refrigerator or freezer immediately. Ensure
they are well covered to prevent them drying out
and to prevent any possible cross contamination
with bacterial from raw to cooked foods.
10. Cook meat thoroughly – use a meat thermometer
if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check
that the centre temperature has reached the
required temperature (see table below).
MEAT TEMPERATURES
Beef
Pork Well Done – 80°C
Lamb Medium – 70°C
11. If not eaten straight away after cooking, food
should be cooled as quickly as possible (within
one hour) and then refrigerated or frozen as
required. (Do not put hot food into a refrigerator
or freezer).
12. In the kitchen keep worktops, chopping boards
and utensils clean with hot soapy water between
preparation stages. Ideally, keep one chopping
board for raw meat and another for other foods.
Keep your dish cloths and tea towels clean.
Rare – 60°C
Medium – 70°C
Well Done – 80°C
Well Done – 80°C
5. Follow the cooking instructions on packets of
prepared and cooked chilled foods, but be
prepared to adjust cooking time and
temperatures to suit your particular oven. For
example, the fan oven generally requires 2025°C lower temperature than conventional ovens.
6. Always ensure that cooked chilled foods are
thoroughly re-heated until they are piping hot
throughout.
7. It is preferable to defrost frozen foods slowly in
the refrigerator. Alternatively, a microwave oven
or the Defrost function on your oven may be
used.
8. Always cook defrosted foods immediately after
thawing. Thawed food should never be refrozen.
9. Joints of meat and poultry should be thoroughly
defrosted before cooking.
23

· Strip inner insulation on wires using
wirestrippers.
· Twist the bared wires using pliers.
· Cut bared wires 10mm away from the end of the
inner insulation. Where uninsulated Earth wires
are used ensure they are suitably sheathed to
leave 10mm bare wire fit into the terminal.
· Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal and
check they are held by tugging each one in turn.
· Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of
the outer insulation is inside the terminal block
and that the wires are not taught but not so slack
as to cause any fouling. See Fig. 7.
· Place fuse/miniature circuit breaker in circuit and
switch on at mains.
CONNECTING TO A HOB OR COOKER
POINT
· Either follow in general terms the instructions for
connecting to the terminal block or refer to the
hob suppliers installation instructions.
