Before first use
Rating plate
This is situated on the front frame of the appliance 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 appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker.
The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.
WARNING!
Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
Preparing to use your appliance
Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth using hot soapy water. Wash the furniture
before use.
Before first use
We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature,
to burn off any residue from their surfaces. Accessible parts may become hotter than in
normal use. Children should be kept away. During this period an odor may be emitted, it is
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
There is a hot surface label on the oven door. Please remove the label from the door before
first use of the appliance.
The cooling fan
The cooling fan comes on immediately the top oven or grill is switched on. It may run on
after the ovens are switched off until the appliance has cooled. During the cooling down
period the cooling fan may switch on and off.
WARNING!
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down before switching off the electrical
supply to carry out cleaning or maintenance.
Control panel indicator neon(s)
The indicator neon will operate when the oven(s) is switched on. The indicator neon will
glow. It may turn on and off during use to show that the setting is being maintained. If the
neon does not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and reset following the instructions for the required setting.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The vents allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the
door(s) to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
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 discoloration, regularly wipe away condensation and foodstuff from surfaces.
For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the
wall.
7
Cookware
Baking trays, 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.
Setting the Time
The oven only operates when the time has been set.

Operation
The top oven
The top 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. It gives especially good
results if used to cook fruitcakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is ideal for use as a warming compartment. It can be used to warm dishes
and keep food hot. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.
WARNING!
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.
Always grill with the door closed.
Switching the Oven On and Off

Use, tables and tips
Baking
Oven levels
• Baking with Conventional Cooking is only possible on one level.
• When baking with Fan Cooking one to two baking trays can be put into the bottom oven
at the same time:
1 tray, e.g. oven level 3
Use, tables and tips
12
1 cake in cake tin, e.g. oven level 1
2 tray, e.g. oven levels 1 and 3
Baking tins
• Baking tins made from dark-coloured metal with Teflon coating are suitable for baking
using Conventional Cooking.
• For baking using the Fan Cooking function, baking tins made of shiny light-coloured
metal are suitable.
General instructions
• Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
• When baking using Conventional Cooking and Fan Cooking , you can also place two
baking trays next to one another on one level. This does not significantly affect the baking
time.
When frozen items are placed on baking trays, they can buckle during cooking. This happens
due to the large difference in temperature between the frozen item and the oven. After
cooling, the buckling in the trays disappears.
How to use the Baking Tables
• The tables give the required temperature settings, cooking times and oven levels for a
selection of typical dishes.
• Temperatures and baking times are for guidance only, as these will depend on the consistency of pastry, dough or mixture, the amount and the type of baking tin.
• We recommend setting the oven to a lower temperature for the first time and only
setting a higher temperature when required, e.g. if you require more browning or if the
baking is taking too long.
• If you cannot find the settings for a certain recipe, look for similar items.
• The baking time can be 10-15 minutes longer when baking cakes on trays or in tins on
multiple levels.
• Recipes with moist ingredients such as pizzas or fruit flans are to be baked on one level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown at an uneven rate at first. You should
not change the temperature setting if this occurs. Different rates of browning even out
as baking progresses.
Use, tables and tips
• Baking and roasting times could differ from those of your previous oven. For this reason
you should adjust the settings you usually use (temperature, cooking times, etc.) and
oven levels to the recommendations provided in the following tables.
Roasting
Ovenware for roasting
• Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for roasting. (Please follow the manufacturer's instructions.)
•
You can place large roasts directly in the roasting tray or on the shelf with the
roasting tray underneath.
•
We recommend roasting leaner cuts in a roasting pan with a lid. The meat will be
more succulent.
• All types of meat which are supposed to be browned or form a crust or crackling can be
roasted in a roasting pan without a lid.
The information given in the following tables is for guidance only.
•
We recommend meat and fish weighing 1 kg or more for roasting in the oven.
• To prevent escaping meat juices or fat from burning on to the pan, we recommend
placing some liquid in the roasting cookware.
• If required, turn the roast after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time.
• Use the cooking juices to baste large roasts and poultry several times during the cooking
time. This will give better roasting results.
Hints and tips when using the grill
• Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation
of air and 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 gentler
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 underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
• When toasting bread, use the shelf in the top position with the grid in the ‘high’ position.
• Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.
Adjust the heat setting and the shelf 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.
13
Hints and tips when using the top oven
• Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.
• 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 on the shelf.
Use, tables and tips
14
• 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 a suitably sized baking tray on the shelf to prevent spillage onto the
oven base and to help reduce cleaning.
• The material and finish of the baking tray and dishes used affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning. Shiny aluminium or
polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.
• Because of the smaller cooking space and lower temperatures, shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the recommendations given in the cooking chart.
• For economy leave the door open for the shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a pre-heated oven.
Hints and tips when using fan cooking
• Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.
• When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different
shelves rather than placing 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 baking trays directly on the oven base as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf position.
Hints and tips when defrosting
• 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.
• 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.
Top Oven - Conventional Cooking
Shelf Positions are not critical but ensure that oven shelves are evenly spaced when more
than one is used (e.g. shelf positions 1 and 3)
