BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower 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.

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
and hot soapy water and wash the furniture before
use.
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 –
15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from
their surfaces.
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.

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.

POP IN POP OUT CONTROLS

These control knobs can remain flush with the control
panel when not in use, or pushed and released to
stand out from the panel for easy operation.

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 discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

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.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the
grill/top oven is switched on and after a short time
when the main oven is in use. It runs on after the
controls are switched off until the appliance has
cooled. During the initial period the cooling fan for
the main oven may turn ON and OFF, this is quite
normal.

Always allow the cooling fan to cool the
appliance down before switching off at the
wall prior to carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEON(S)

The indicator neon will operate when the grill (where
applicable) or 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.

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. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you
cannot store them straight away. The use of an
insulated container when shopping is advisable.

2. 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 bacteria from raw to cooked foods.

3. In the kitchen keep work tops, 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.

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.

FULL WIDTH DUAL GRILL

WARNING - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN
SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.

The Dual Grill on this appliance has been designed to heat up more quickly than conventional grill elements. It
provides quick, direct heat and no preheating is necessary. It has a dual circuit facility 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 FULL WIDTH DUAL GRILL

12.00

· To operate the grill, pop out and turn the second

oven/grill function selector to full grill.

· Pop out and turn the second oven/grill function

selector to centre section only.

· Turn the temperature control knob to the right as

far as it will go. This is the hottest setting.

· To use the grill at lower settings, turn the

temperature control knob so that 110°C or 150°C
on the panel lines up with the "0" on the knob.

THINGS TO NOTE

· The indicator neon will glow. It may turn ON and

OFF during use to show that the setting is being
maintained.

· The cooling fan for the controls may operate after

a time.

· Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident

as the grill cleans itself.

· The grill may be used with the door open or with

the door closed.

13

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLES

The grill pan is supplied with removable handles.

1. To attach the handles, place the wirework

under the cut out in the pan so that the metal
plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.

Ensure the handles are positively located.

1.

2. To remove the handles, lift 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.

Protect your hands when removing the grill
pan handles.

Always remove the grill pan handles during
grilling.

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.

2.

· 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.

· When using the centre section grill, ensure food

is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly
beneath the grill element.

14

· 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.

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. 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 the
second oven when you want to warm plates. Use the lowest setting on the second oven temperature control.

USING SECOND OVEN

12.00

· Pop out and turn the second oven/grill function

selector to.

· Pop out and turn the second oven temperature

control to the required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

· The oven light will illuminate.

· The indicator neon will glow. It may turn ON and

OFF during use to show that the setting is being
maintained.

· The cooling fan for the controls may operate after

a time.

Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly onto the oven base as it becomes
very hot and damage may occur.

TO FIT THE SECOND OVEN SHELF

The 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

16

HINTS AND TIPS

· Arrange the shelf in the required position 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.

· 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 used will 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.

· 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.

· 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.

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.

VENTITHERM ® PRECISION FAN COOKING

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 always preheat the oven
first.

COOKING TEMPERATURES

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the cooking chart. 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.

19

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.
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.

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.

· 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 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.

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.

20

CONVENTIONAL COOKING

This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation.
It is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins,

lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. For best results
cook on one level.

USING CONVENTIONAL COOKING

· If an automatic programme has been set, the

oven fan and light do not come on until cooking

· Some internal noise may be heard during

operation. This is quite normal.

21

HINTS AND TIPS

· Single level cooking gives best results. If you

require more than one level of cooking use the
main fan oven.

· The middle shelf allows for the best heat

distribution. To increase base browning simply
lower the shelf position. To increase top
browning raise, the shelf position.

· There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”)

between the top of the food and the grill 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.

· Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf

and there is sufficient room around the baking
tray or 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 will affect the degree of 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.

· 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.

· 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.

25

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.

· 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.

HINTS AND TIPS

· Single level cooking using the middle shelf

position gives best results.

· Ensure that food is place centrally on the shelf for

maximum air circulation.

· Be guided by the cook times and temperatures

given on any packaging.

· Some pizzas should be cooked directly on the

oven shelf. To prevent soiling the oven base,
place a baking tray in one of the lower shelf
positions.

Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly onto the oven base as it becomes
very hot and damage may occur.

· The material and finish of the baking trays and

dishes used will affect base browning.
Enamelware, dark heavy or non-stick utensils
increase base browning. Shiny aluminium or

ROTITHERM ROASTING

Rotitherm Roasting offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional
grilling.

Rotitherm Roasting helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door
closed.

With the exception of toast and rare steaks you can Rotitherm Roast all the foods you would normally cook under a
conventional grill.

COOKING TIMES

Cooking is more gentle, therefore food generally takes a little longer to cook when Rotitherm Roasting compared
with conventional grilling. One of the advantages is that larger loads can be cooked at the same time.

The lower part of the oven can be used to cook accompaniments at the same time, e.g. tomatoes and mushrooms
with a mixed grill or breakfast.

Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie, lasagne and au gratins can be heated through and browned
on the top using the Rotitherm Roasting function.

USING ROTITHERM ROASTING

Always Rotitherm Roast with the oven door
closed and the grill pan handle removed.

· Pop out and turn the multifunction selector to

Rotitherm Roasting.

· Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed.

The temperature will automatically set to 180°C.

· The oven light will illuminate.

· If an automatic programme has been set, the

oven fan and light do not come on until cooking
begins.

· Some internal noise may be heard during

operation. This is quite normal.

28

HINTS AND TIPS

· Prepare foods in the same way as for

conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish
lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist
during cooking.

· Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid

in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow
maximum circulation of air around the food.

· Accompaniments such as tomatoes and

mushrooms may be placed below the grid when
grilling meats, or in a separate dish on a lower
shelf.

· Foods will cook more quickly the closer they are

to the grill element and the higher the
temperatures selected. Be prepared to adjust
temperatures and shelf positions during cooking
if necessary.

· Turn food over during cooking as necessary.

· Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled

dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne,
etc., are piping hot throughout before serving.

· A temperature range of 140°C - 220° is suitable

for most foods. Be prepared to make suitable
adjustments during cooking to suit individual
requirements. If Rotitherm Roasting on more
than one level, it may be necessary to
interchange the food on the shelves during
cooking.

SPEEDCOOK

Speedcook is ideal for quick preheating of the oven.

USING SPEEDCOOK

12.00

After a cooking function has been selected and the
temperature has been adjusted, the cavity will
gradually heat up until the selected temperature is
reached. This will take from 10 to 15 minutes,
depending on selected function and temperature. If it
is necessary to reach the required temperature in a
shorter time, the Speedcook Function can be used.

SELECTING SPEEDCOOK

· Set the required cooking function and

temperature as explained in the previous pages.

· Press the Speedcook control button. The

Speedcook neon will illuminate ( ) and the
temperature indicator neons ( °C ) will flash.

· When the required temperature is reached the

three temperature indicator neons on the timer
display will illuminate and an audible signal will
sound.

· The Speedcook neon will go out.

THINGS TO NOTE

The Speedcook Function will overide the selected
main oven function until the required temperature is
reached then return to the selected main oven
function.

The Speedcook function cannot be used with the
Second Oven, Main Oven Full Width Grill or Fan
Controlled Defrosting.

· The selected cooking function will resume.

30

FAN CONTROLLED DEFROSTING

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 FAN CONTROLLED DEFROSTING

12.00

· Pop out and turn the multifunction selector to Fan

Controlled Defrosting.

· Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed.

The temperature will automatically set to 30°C.

THINGS TO NOTE

· 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.

· 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 been
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.

31

CARE AND CLEANING

BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW THE
COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE
DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.

CLEANING MATERIALS

Before using any cleaning materials on your
appliance, check that they are suitable and that their
use is recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
and scourers should also be avoided as damage will
occur.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE
APPLIANCE

Do not use abrasive cleaning materials e.g. Hob

Brite, Brillo pads or scourers on painted or printed
finishes as damage may occur.
Regularly wipe over the control panel, doors and
handles using a soft cloth and hot soapy water. To
prevent streaking finish with a soft cloth.
Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive and
should be avoided as they may dull the surface
finish. Any spillage on the stainless steel finish

must be wiped off immediately.

Do not attempt to remove any of the control
knobs from the panel as this may cause
damage and is a safety hazard.

Under no circumstances should the door
assembly be detached from the product for
cleaning.

REMOVING AND REPLACING
WIREWORK RUNNERS

Remove all shelves and furniture from the oven.
Hold the wirework at the bottom, unclip from the

cavity side and gently pull towards the centre of the
oven.

Unhook the runner at the top and remove from the
cavity.

To replace, ensure the side panel is assembled on to
the wirework runner before hooking it back into the
oven.

To replace the runners, hook the wirework side
runner into the cavity, slide back and press into
place.

Ensure the wirework runners are firmly in
position before replacing the oven
shelves.

CLEANING INSIDE THE OVENS

The sides and back of the grill/second oven and main
oven compartments are coated with a special
Stayclean coating. They should not be cleaned
manually.

The vitreous enamel main oven base and grill
compartment base can be cleaned using normal
oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the
manufacturers instructions are followed and that all
parts are well rinsed afterwards.

Aerosol cleaners must not come into
contact with elements or the door seal as
this may cause damage.

HINTS AND TIPS

Aerosol cleaners must not be used on
Stayclean surfaces.

Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats
when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.

It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per
week to ensure continued good performance from the
Stayclean finish.

Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean
surfaces may occur in time. This DOES NOT affect
the Stayclean properties in any way.

Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before
cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will
increase splashing and soilage.

It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat tin when
roasting. The water and the fat juices from the joint
create excessive splattering during cooking – even at
normal temperatures, as well as causing
condensation.

Covering joints during cooking will also prevent
splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing the
covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allow extra
browning if required. Some large joints and turkeys
especially benefit by this method of cooking, allowing
the joint to cook through before the outside is over­browned.

33

CLEANING THE DOOR GLASS

To prevent damaging or weakening the
door glass panels avoid the use of the
following:

· Household detergents and bleaches

· Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-

stick saucepans

· Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads

· Chemical oven pads or aerosols

· Rust removers

· Bath/Sink stain removers

Under no circumstances should the door
assembly be detached from the product for
cleaning.

TO REMOVE THE INNER GLASS

1. Fully open the door.

2. Firmly grasp the rear edge of the inner glass panel
with both hands.

3. Push the glass panel towards you until it clears

THINGS TO NOTE

· This appliance is designed to be fitted in cabinets

of the recommended dimensions as shown
(Fig.3).

· If your cabinet interior dimension is between 565-

570mm the oven may still be fitted. However, a
minor modification to the cabinet will be required
to reduce the aperture size down to 560-565 mm,
to allow the product to be securely screwed into
the cabinet.

· The dimensions given provide adequate air

circulation around the unit within the cabinet,
ensuring compliance with BS EN60-335.

· Enquiries regarding the installation of the cooker

point, if required, should be made to your
Regional Electricity Company to ensure
compliance with their regulations.

· The appliance socket switch should be outside

the cabinet but within 2m of the appliance to
make it accessible to switch off the appliance in
case of an emergency.

· To protect the hands, wear gloves when lifting

the oven into its housing.

Do not lift the appliance by the handles.

NOTE: HOUSE CIRCUIT

Earth leakage and continuity tests must be carried
out before the appliance is connected to the mains

40

CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

· There are three possible ways to connect your

appliance. In each case the appliance should be
operated using at least 6mm
PVC insulated. Please choose from the most
appropriate after reading the different methods:-

a) By connecting the appliance to a cooker point

(having a double pole isolating switch with at
least 3mm contact separation in all poles and
neutral) and protected with a fuse or miniature
circuit breaker at your mains fuse box.

Subject to Regional Electricity Companies
regulations if you wish to connect the oven
and hob to the power supply you may use
one of the following two methods:-

b) By connecting the appliance together with a hob

directly to a cooker point(s). Having a double
pole isolating switch with at least 3mm contact
separation in all poles and neutral.

c) If you wish to connect an oven and a hob to a

house wiring.

· Wire your appliance to the latest IEE regulations.

PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF
OVEN

· Make sure that the cabinet is the correct size for

the appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 3).

· If the size is between 565-570mm, then the

cabinet should be modified so that at the screw
fixing points the recommended dimension of at
least 560-565mm is maintained. The modification
should ideally be localised to ensure that after
screw fitment the oven is securely fixed into
position.

· The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly

securing it to the wall or floor. If necessary,
make arrangements to ensure the shelf upon
which the oven will rest is level.

· When the appliance is installed ensure a

minimum gap of 2mm is maintained between the
