WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

Electronic Timer

Control Knob

Control Panel

Top Oven / Dual Grill

Multifunction
Main Oven

Your built-under appliance comprises of a conventional oven and dual grill in the top compartment. The top oven is
convenient and economical for mid-week use because of its size.

The main fan oven is the larger of the two ovens. It is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.

The main fan oven can be automatically controlled by the electronic timer.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

Your appliance has a cooling fan fitted behind the
controls to prevent them from overheating.
The cooling fan will come on immediately when the
grill is switched on and after a short time when either
of the ovens are in use.
The cooling fan may turn on and off when the
appliance is in use. This is quite normal.

The cooling fan may run on after the ovens or grill
are switched off for a period of time to cool the
appliance down. It may continue to switch on and off
until the appliance is cool.

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.

NOTE:

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

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill are
switched ON. In the case of the ovens, the Top and
Main fan oven neons also indicate when the set
temperature as been reached. They will turn on and
off during use to show that the temperature is being
maintained.

The grill neon does not turn on and off when the grill
is in use.

The Main Fan oven neon does not operate with the
Defrost setting.

If the neons do not operate as the instructions
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.

Return all controls to zero and re-set following the
instructions for the required setting.

6

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON

The timer must be set to manual operation before the
main fan oven can be operated. This must be done
whenever the appliance is switched off at the wall or
when there has been a power failure. For
instructions on how to set the timer see page 9.

If the main fan oven indicator neon does not glow
when the oven controls are switched on, it is most
likely that the timer is set for automatic cooking.

The Top Oven and the Dual grill are not controlled by
the electronic timer.

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance upon opening the door. Alternatively the
rating plate may also be found on the 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 YOUR APPLIANCE

Wipe over the base of the ovens with a soft cloth and
hot soapy water and wash the grill and oven 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.

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.

7

COOKWARE

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

Advice on the effect of different materials and
finishes of bakeware is given in ‘Hints and Tips’ in the
appropriate oven section.

THE DUAL GRILL

WARNING – Accessible parts become hot
when the grill is in use. Keep children
away.

USES OF THE GRILL

The grill is situated in the Top Oven compartment.
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full

area of the grill or the centre section only can be
used. Use the full grill for cooking larger quantities of
food. Use the centre section for economy purposes
when cooking smaller quantities.

HOW TO USE THE DUAL GRILL

· To operate the grill turn the top oven/grill control

clockwise to the full power setting ( ), then
turn down as necessary.

The grill settings are as follows:-

· ( ) Full grill area at full power.

· ( ) Centre grill area at full power.

· ( ) Full grill area at ¼ power.

The grill door must be left open when
grilling.

THINGS TO NOTE

· The cooling fan for the controls will operate as

soon as the grill control is turned. For more
information on the operation of the cooling fan
turn to page 6.

· The outer section of the grill element may appear

to glow brighter than the inner section. This is
quite normal.

· The grill indicator neon will illuminate

· We recommend using the grill pan on the shelf in

positions 3 or 5.

· If you use the grill pan in position 3 the shelf must

be withdrawn before the pan can be located or
removed.

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE

The grill pan has a removable handle.

To insert the handle, press the button on the handle
with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards
inserting the lip into the widest part of the bracket.
Move the handle towards the left, lower into position
and release the button.

Ensure the handle is positively located.

To remove the handle, press the button on the
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly
upwards and towards the right to remove from the
bracket.

Protect your hands when removing the grill
pan handle.

Always remove the grill pan handle during
grilling.

To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure
that the cut out on the underside of the handle
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.

The Grill Pan must not be located in the
shelf runners.

To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to
food during cooking.

Ensure that you support the grill pan when
it is withdrawn.

HINTS AND TIPS

· Most foods should be placed on the grilling grid

in the grill pan. This allows maximum circulation
of air by raising the food out of fats and juices.

· Adjust the grid and grill pan runner to allow for

different thicknesses of food. Position the food
close to the element for faster cooking and
further away for more gentle cooking.

13

· The grill pan grid is reversible. This is useful if

you want to cook foods of varying thicknesses.
As a general rule, bread for toasting should be
placed on the grid in the ‘high’ position in the grill
pan. Foods such as chicken pieces or chops
may be grilled using the grilling grid in the low
position.

· 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.

· The food should be turned over during cooking

as required.

· The grill door must be left open when grilling.

For convenience the grill door can be left ajar.

· Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes

before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat
setting and the shelf position as necessary during
cooking.

THE TOP OVEN

USE OF THE TOP OVEN

The Top oven is the smaller of the two ovens.

The Top oven is a conventional oven, i.e. without a
fan. It is convenient where smaller quantities or
convenience foods are being cooked. It is important
to refer to the cooking chart as a guide to shelf
positions and temperatures as these may differ from
previous cookers you may have used.

HOW TO USE THE TOP OVEN

1. Turn the Top Oven temperature control to the
required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

· The Top 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.

· The cooling fan for the controls will operate after

a time. See page 6 for more information on the
operation of the cooling fan.

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

TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

There are 5 shelf positions in the Top Oven.
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.

The shelf 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.
