Using the Oven

Always cook with the oven door closed.

Stand clear when opening the side swing oven door.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied
with two shelves. The shelf positions are counted
from the bottom of the oven as shown in the
diagram.

It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned.

Do not place cookware directly on the oven
base.

Attention! - Do not place objects on the oven base

and do not cover any part of the oven with
aluminium foil while cooking, as this could cause
a heat build-up which would affect the baking
results and damage the oven enamel. Always
place pans, heat-resisting pans and aluminium
trays on the shelf which has been inserted in the
shelf runners.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam. This system makes it possible
to cook in a steamy environment and keep the
dishes soft inside and crusty outside. Moreover,
the cooking time and energy consumption are
reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam may
be produced which can be released when opening
the oven door. This is absolutely normal.

However, always stand back from the oven
when opening the oven door during
cooking or at the end of it to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.

When food is heated, it produces steam in the
same way as a boiling kettle does. When
steam comes in contact of the oven door
glass, it will condense and produce water
droplets. To reduce condensation, ensure the
oven is well heated before placing food in the
oven cavity. A short oven pre-heating (about
10 minutes) will then be necessary before
anycooking. We recommend you to wipe
away condensation after each use of the
appliance.

Cookware

• Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.

• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of
the oven, or placed on the oven base.

• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12
in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.

The effects of dishes
on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright

shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.

B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium

with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

10

Using the Conventional Oven

When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook on a single
level and 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 in operation.

How to Use the

)

Conventional Oven

1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required
cooking function .

2. Turn the thermost at control to the required tempera­ture.

THINGS TO NOTE

z

The oven light will come on when the oven function
control knob is set.

z

The thermostat control light will remain on until the
correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on
and off to show that temperature is being maintained.

Top oven element only

This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes, e.g.
lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.

Bottom oven element only

This function is particularly useful when blind-baking
pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be used to finish off
quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is cooked
through.

NOTE

The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the
oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not
switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on
where the oven has only been used for a short time.

Hints and Ti ps

- The middle shelf position allows for the best heat
distribution. T o increase base browning simply lower
the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the
shelf position.

- 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.

- Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure
even browning.

- Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent
spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning
easier.

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

- For faster preheating use the fan oven function to
preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes
out, then swich the selector to the conventional oven
setting.

- Single level cooking gives best results. If you require
more than one level cooking use the fan oven function.

The cooling fan

• The cooling fan will operate continually during
cooking. It may run on after the oven is switched off
to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.

11

Using the Fan Oven

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around
the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates
hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.

The advantage of cooking with this function is
energy saving through:

z Faster Preheating

As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is
not usually necessary to preheat the oven although
you may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7
minutes on cooking times. For recipes which require
higher temperatures, best results are achieved if the
oven is preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones,
souffles, etc.

z Lower Temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking
chart. Remember to reduce temperatures by about
20-25°C for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.

z Even Heating for Baking

The fan oven has uniform heating on all shelf positions.
This means that batches of the same food can be
cooked in the oven at the same time. However, the
top shelf may brown slightly quicker than the lower
one. This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours
between dishes.

How to use the fan oven

)

1. Turn the oven function control knob to .

2. Turn the thermostat control to the required temperature.

Things to note

• The oven light will come on when the oven function
control knob is set.

• The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.

• The thermostat control light will remain on until the
correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on
and off to show the temperature is being maintained.

The cooling fan

The cooling fan is designed to cool the the oven and the
control panel. The fan switches on automatically after a
few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown out through
the aperture near the oven door handle. When the oven
is switched off, the fan will remain on in order to cool the
oven properly , after which it switches off automatically .

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.
During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat
control light will operate in the same way as described
for the fan oven function.

Hints and T ips

- 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. Food such as fish, liver and
kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if
preferred.

- 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, we suggest that the top runner
position is used.

- The food should be turned over during cooking, as
required.

The grill element is controlled by the thermostat.
During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to
prevent overheating.

How to Use the inner grill

How to Use the Thermal Grill

)

Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking
food items normally associated with conventional grilling.
The grill element and the oven fan operate alternately,
circulating hot air around the food. The need to check
and turn the food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to
minimize cooking smells in the kitchen.
With the exception of toast and rare steaks, you can
thermally grill all the foods you would normally cook
under a conventional grill. Cooking is more gentle,
therefore food generally takes a little longer to cook with
thermal grilling compared with conventional grilling. One
of the advantages is that larger quantities can be cooked
at the same time.

1. Turn the oven control function knob on .

2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required
temperature. Select a maximum temperature of

200°C

3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow
for different thicknesses of food and follow the
instructions for grilling.

Hints and Tip s

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.

Defrosting

The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the
air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases
the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the
temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of
defrosting.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate food which
could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled gateaux,
iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products.

)

How to use defrosting

1. Turn the oven function control knob to .

2. Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the OFF
position.

Hints and T ips

• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to
prevent drying out during defrosting.

• ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.

• Frozen food should be placed in a single layer when
ever possible and turned over half way through the
defrosting process.

• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4 lb.) are
suitable for defrosting in this way.

16

Cleaning the Oven

Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to
cool the oven down before switching off at the
electricity supply .

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or
with a steam cleaning machine.

The oven should be kept clean at all times. A
build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in
a fire, especially in the grill pan.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, 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 should
also be avoided.

External cleaning

Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little mild washing-up liquid has been added.

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

• Household detergent 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

Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy
water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled
it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove soilage.

DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed
the glass panel may shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has
deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and
must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the
panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force
Centre who will be pleased to advise further.

Oven Cavity

The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary oven cleaner.

17

Cleaning the oven door

The following instructions explain how to disassemble
the oven door as it is supplied by the Manufacturer.

If your oven door has been reversed, please
note that the references to the right or left
side have to be switched.
