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.
Alterna tivel y the rat ing pl ate may also be found on t he
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 YO UR APPL I ANC E

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 SWITCHI NG O N

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.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is
switched on and after a short time when the 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 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 I N DI CA TO R NEO N(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.

8

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.

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.

Energy save mode

Your timer has an energy save mode which allows you to
switch the display off.

By switching off the time display you can save energy.

Switching off the time display

Press and hold any two buttons until the display
switches off.

Switching on the time display
