Temperature Knob
Fan Forced: Combination of the fan and rear heating element provides more even heat penetration, saving up to 15-30% energy. Dishes are lightly browned on the outside and still moist on the inside. NOTE: This function is suitable for grilling or roasting big pieces of meat at a higher temperature.
Symbol Function description
Oven Lamp: This enables the user to observe the progress of cooking without opening the
door.
Defrost: The circulation of air at room temperature enables quicker thawing of frozen food, (without the use of any heat). It's a gentle but quick way to speed up the defrosting time and thawing of ready-made dishes and cream filled produce etc.
Top Heat: Heat comes only from the upper part of the oven. Ideal for browning foods and gentle grilling.
Fan Grilling: This cooking method is normal grilling, utilizing the inner part only of the top heating element, which directs heat downwards onto the food and fan to circulate the heat through out the oven

Wire chrome shelves : For grill dishes, cake pan with items for roasting and grilling. The shelves are fitted with stops to ensure the users safety and a rear bar to stop dishes from falling off the back of the shelf.
ACCESSORIES
Universal pan: For cooking large quantities of food such as moist cakes, pastries, frozen food etc. Also useful for collecting fat spills and meat juices.
SHELF PLACEMENT
WARNING: To ensure the oven shelves
operate
safely, it is
imperative
that the shelves are correctly
placed between
the side

INSTALLATION NOTES:
If fitted with plug and lead the location of the power point cannot be mounted directly behind the the oven as this will impede the oven sitting correctly into the cabinet.
When mounted under bench and there is a bench above the oven, air flow ventilation is important to help keep the cabinets and oven electronics from getting to hot. Please note three
ways that this can be achieved and illustrated above with the matching letters.
o A - This represents the cabinet rear panel being removed. With the panel removed, it can
draw some air from under the base panel and behind the adjacent cabinets
o B -- This represents the use of plinth supports at the bottom on either side in lieu of the
cabinet base panel to support the oven in place and improves the air flow.
o C-IIf base panel is in place it is recommended to cut an opening under the oven to draw
air through and around the oven. Minimum size cutout should measure 400mm x 400mm.
One of these methods MUST BE incorporated otherwise warranty may be voided.

COOLING FAN
Oven vent holes
To improve the efficiency of keeping the cabinet and oven electronics from getting to hot,
the oven is fitted with a cooling fan located in top of the oven. Ambient air from outside the oven is drawn in by means of this cooling fan and the hot air is expelled from a series of vent holes located at the top of the oven cavity just above the door.
NOTE: Even after the oven has been turned off the cooling fan will continue to run for a period of time to keep doing it's job. There is no need to be concerned as this normal and uses very
little energy.

If you raise both of the
movable latches (B), then
the hinges (A) are released from the oven housing.
You should grip the sides of the door at the centre and then incline it slightly towards the oven cavity and then pull the door gently away from the oven cavity.
IMPORTANT: You should make sure that the door is supported at all times and that you place the door on some padded material whilst cleaning it.
The oven door and door glass should only be cleaned using a damp cloth and a small amount of detergent. The cloth MUST NOT have come into contact with any form of cleaning product or chemical previously.
To refit the door you should slide the hinges back into their slots and open the door fully.
IMPORTANT: The movable latches (B) must be closed back into their original positions before closing the door.
Take care not to dislodge the hinge locking system when removing the door, as the hinge mechanism has a strong spring.
Do not immerse the door in water at any time.

After cleaning, insert the glass panel correctly back into the door in the reverse order.
Ensure the securing clips slot back into place and the glass panel locks into place securely.
IMPORTANT: Remember where the panel of glass is removed from so you can reassemble the door correctly. Do not mix the glasses up or rearrange the order.
WARNING: Placing the glass pieces back in the door incorrectly could cause damage and possibly door exploding.
REMOVING THE INNER GLASS DOOR FOR CLEANING
NOTE: Do not use any abrasive
cleaner that could cause damage. Remember that if the surface
of the glass panel becomes scratched, this could lead to a dangerous failure.
To facilitate cleaning, the inner door glass can be lifted out. Refer to illustrations below.
Grip the top and the bottom of the inner door glass panel.
Gently pull the bottom of the inner door glass panel upwards.
The securing clips at the bottom of the glass
panel will pop out and the glass panel will be
free to remove.
