Fitting Out The Appliance
Metal shelf
The metal shelf can be used for
toasting, browning and grilling. It is also
used for steam cooking.
To install the flat shelf, insert it at a
45-degree angle and then position it
horizontally and push it all the way in, to
the end of the grill track.
To remove the flat shelf, pull it toward

Drip tray
The drip tray can be slid into its location
underneath the shelf to collect the
juices from grilling or the condensate
from steam cooking (Fig. 2).
To remove it, lift slightly and slide it
toward you.
To reinsert it, slide it back until it is
correctly seated.
Perforated tray
The perforated tray is used for steam

Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT:
Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
undertaking any cleaning or maintenance.
You should always allow the oven to cool fully after use before
undertaking any cleaning or maintenance.
Changing the oven lamp
• Remove all shelves and the grill pan
from the oven.
• Remove the four screws holding the
steel frame to the light glass (Fig 6)
and remove the glass.
• Carefully remove the old bulb and
insert a new bulb, suitable for high
temperatures (300ºC) having the
following specifications: 230-240V,
50Hz, 25W, G9 tting.
• Insert the new bulb taking care not
to touch the glass with your hands as
contamination from your fingers can
cause premature failure. Always use
a clean cloth or gloves (Fig 7).
• Reattach the glass cover, taking care
not to pinch the silicone gasket.

Please note:
Bulb replacement is not covered by your guarantee.
Cleaning
You should only use non-abrasive cleaners. Any abrasive cleaners
(including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control
panel markings. You should not use cleaning products with a chlorine
or acidic base.
Any spillages should be cleaned o immediately, especially any
alkaline or acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.)
Stainless steel
Stainless steel can be eectively cleaned by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a
clean cloth. Proprietary stainless steel cleaners are available. We
recommend the CDA E-Cloth available from the CDA Sales Team for
cleaning stainless steel surfaces.
Inside the oven
It is recommended that the interior of the oven be cleaned after
every use using suitable products, especially if any spillage has
occurred. The shelves can be removed and washed by hand or in the
dishwasher.
19
Grill
When used regularly, the grill element does not need cleaning as the
intense heat will burn o any splashes. The interior ceiling may need
regular cleaning, which should be done with warm water, detergent
and a sponge. If the grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10
minutes every month to burn o any splashes, in order to reduce the
risk of fire.
PLEASE NOTE: Steam cleaners must not be used to clean this
appliance.
Do not store ammable material in the oven.
Do not allow grease or food particles to build up around the door.
IMPORTANT:
When correctly installed, your product meets all safety
requirements laid down for this type of product. However, special
care should be taken around the rear or the underneath of the
appliance as these areas are not designed or intended to be
touched and may contain sharp or rough edges that could cause
injury.
20
Installation
The appliance can be installed under a worktop or in a wall unit (open
or closed) with the appropriate dimensions for recessed installation.
Centre the oven in the unit so as to ensure a minimum distance of
10mm between the appliance and the surrounding unit. The material
of the unit supporting the appliance must be heat resistant (or
covered with a heat resistant material). For greater stability, attach the
oven to the unit with two screws through the holes provided on the
side panels.
If the appliance is to be installed under a worktop, ensure the top rail
has been removed to provide free airflow around the product.
Do not use your appliance immediately after moving it from a
cold location, as condensation may cause a malfunction. Wait
approximately 1-2 hours before use.
