The Cooling Fan for the Controls

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

Do not switch off the appliance at the wall before the cooling fan has cooled the appliance down.

Control Panel Indicator Neons

These lights indicate whether the grill or ovens are switched ON. In the case of the ovens, the temperature neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. The temperature neon will go out when the oven has reached the set temperature. It will turn on and off during cooking to show that the oven temperature is being maintained. If the neons do 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.

GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE

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 oven lights may illuminate momentarily and the electronic display will automatically show 0.00, the 'Time' neon will also flash. To set the time of day and use the timer refer to instructions on page 9.

Rating plate

This is situated on the lower front frame of the oven and can be seen upon opening the main cavity 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 an 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.

On/Off Push Button

The oven must be switched on before setting any cooking function or programme. When the on/off button is pressed, the neon below symbol will come on. To switch off the oven, you can press button at any time. Any cooking function or programme will stop, the oven light will switch off and the Main Oven electronic display will show the time of day only.

Oven Function Control Push Buttons

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. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected.

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.

COOKING FUNCTIONS Pizza Baking - This setting can be used for foods

such as pizzas, quiches or pies, where base browning and crispness are required. The top and lower elements operate in conjunction with the fan oven. Fan Cooking - This setting allows you to roast or roast and bake simultaneously using any shelf, without flavour transference.

Conventional Cooking - The heat comes from both the top and bottom element, ensuring even heating inside the oven. Rotitherm Grilling/Fan Assisted Grilling.

This function offers an alternative method of cooking food items, normally associated with conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven fan operate together, circulating hot air around the food. Select a maximum temperature

of 220°C. Single Grill - The full grill element will be on. Bottom Heating Element - The heat comes from

the bottom of the oven only, to allow you to finish your dishes. Defrost - Defrosts most foods faster than some conventional methods. It is particularly suitable for

delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold.

BOOST FUNCTION AND PIZZA BAKING FUNCTION

BOOST FUNCTION

USES OF BOOST FUNCTION

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 Boost Function can be used.

The Boost Function is ideal for quick preheating of the oven before selecting an alternative cooking function.

PIZZA BAKING FUNCTION

USES OF PIZZA BAKING FUNCTION

This setting can be used for foods such as pizza where base browning and crispness are required. The top and lower elements operate in conjunction with the oven fan.

SELECTING THE PIZZA FUNCTION

Scroll through the main oven function selector using or until the Pizza Baking neon is illuminated.

Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed and the neon stops flashing.

The temperature will automatically set to 150°C. If you wish to alter the set temperature you may do so by pressing or until the

required temperature setting is reached.

THINGS TO NOTE

1. 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.

2. The cooling fan for the controls may operate

after a time. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. See page 5 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan.

3. The internal oven light will come on.

SELECTING THE BOOST FUNCTION

1) Set the required cooking function and temperature as explained in the previous pages.

2) Press button once. The neon will illuminate.

3) When the required temperature is reached, an acoustic alarm will sound for a short time, and the indicator neon will turn off.

This function cannot be used with single grill and defrost functions.

HINTS AND TIPS

Single level cooking using shelf positions 4 or 5 gives best results.

Ensure that food is placed 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.

Dishes, tins or trays should not be

placed directly on the oven floor as it becomes very hot and damage will 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, while oven glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.

THE MAIN OVEN FAN COOKING

USES OF THE FAN OVEN PREHEATING

The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however, you may find you 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 chart on page 18. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C-25°C for your own recipes.

BATCH BAKING

The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.

SELECTING THE FAN OVEN

Scroll through the main oven function selections using or until the Fan Cooking oven neon is illuminated.

Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed

and the neon stops flashing. The temperature will automatically set to 150°C.

If you wish to alter the set temperature, you may do so by pressing or until the required temperature setting is reached.

THINGS TO NOTE

1. 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.

2. The oven fan will operate continually during

cooking.

3. The cooling fan for the controls operates after

a period of time. It may run on after the controls are switched off, until the appliance has cooled. See page 5 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan.

4. The internal oven light will come on.

HINTS AND TIPS

Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered 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 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 see page 18.

THE MAIN OVEN - CONVENTIONAL SETTING

USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN

This main oven function uses the top and lower elements to give single level cooking. This 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. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan oven in operation.

SELECTING THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN

Scroll through the main oven function selections using or until the Conventional neon is illuminated.

Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed and the neon stops flashing.

The temperature will automatically set to 200°C.

If you wish to alter the set temperature, you may do so by pressing or until the required setting is reached.

THINGS TO NOTE

1. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the

oven has reached the desired temperature and then go OUT. It will then turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the oven temperature is being maintained.

2. The cooling fan for the controls may operate

after a time. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. See page 5 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan.

3. The internal oven light will come on.
