COOKING FUNCTIONS

Rapid heat

Fan Cook

Bake/pizza

Pastry

Defrost

Fan Grill

Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan as well as the smaller element above the food. This
allows you to preheat your oven 30% quicker than on standard ‘Bake/Pizza’. ‘Rapid Heat’ is ideal for
cooking frozen pre-cooked foods such as savoury pastries, pizzas, mini meals (TV dinners), meat pies and
fruit pies. Simply place the food in the oven straight from the freezer and heat. Cook in the upper half of the
oven for best results.

Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan. This fan circulates the hot air around the oven cavity
so that you can put your food in different places in the oven and still cook them at the same time. You
can use ‘Fan Cook’ function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating cooked foods, pastries and complete oven
meals. It will cook at a lower temperature and be faster than baking. Please note that some variation in
browning is normal.

Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The bottom element is a clean heat
element and is below the floor of the oven. Both elements are controlled by the thermostat and will turn
on and off to maintain set temperature. You can use the ‘Bake/pizza’ function for single trays of biscuits,
scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.

Heat comes from the clean heat element below the food. The element is controlled by the thermostat
and will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The ‘Pastry’ function can be used to add extra
browning to the bases of pizzas, pies, and pastries. Cook in the lower half of the oven when you are using
only one shelf.

The ‘Defrost’ function uses low temperature air that is circulated by the fan. You can defrost (thaw) your
food before you cook it. You can also use ‘Defrost’ to raise your yeast dough and to dry fruit, vegetables
and herbs.

‘Fan Grill’ offers you the benefits of both ‘Fan Cook’ and traditional ‘Grill’ functions. The grill element turns
on and off to maintain set temperature while the fan circulates the heated air.

Grill

Maxi Grill

Fan grill with the oven door closed.

You can use ‘Fan Grill’ for large cuts of meat, which gives you a result that is similar to ‘rotisserie’ cooked
meat. Put your food on a shelf in the second lowest shelf position. Put your grill dish on the lowest shelf to
catch any spills. When using ‘Fan Grill’ it is not necessary to turn food over during the cooking cycle. Set
temperature to 180°C.

‘Grill’ function directs radiant heat from the powerful upper element onto the food. You can use the ‘Grill’
function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking
foods.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Preheat your grill for 3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak,
chops etc for better flavour. You can slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the upper
pairs of support rails.

‘Maxi Grill’ directs radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements onto the food. You can use the
‘Maxi Grill’ function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other
quick cooking foods.

Grill with the oven door closed.

‘Maxi Grill’ allows you to take full advantage of the large grill dish area and will cook faster than normal
‘Grill’. For best results it is recommended to preheat your grill for 3 minutes. This will help seal in the natural
juices of steak, chops etc for a better flavour. You can slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within
the upper pairs of support rails.

OPERATING SEQUENCE

Select the cooking function

Turn the function selector in any direction to the desired
cooking function. The oven cavity light will come on.

Select the temperature

To set the temperature, turn the temperature selector in a
clockwise direction to the desired setting. An indicator light
in the display will come on.

A thermostat controls the temperature in your oven. When
the temperature is reached, the heating source switches
itself off and the indicator light goes out. When the oven
temperature falls below the desired setting, the heating
source switches on and the indicator light comes on again.

Once the food is cooked, turn the temperature selector
back in an anti-clockwise direction. Do not force it right
round in a clockwise direction as this will result in damage
to the thermostat.

NOTE: The desired cooking function must be selected
before the oven will operate.

IMPORTANT

Pre-heating

For best cooking results pre-heat the oven.
Pre-heating allows the oven to reach the required
temperature quickly and efficiently as well as cook
food at the correct temperature for the entire
cook time.

1. With ‘Rapid Heat’ function

This function allows the oven to reach preset

temperature quicker than any other cooking function.
Turn the function selector to ‘Rapid Heat’, then set
the desired temperature, by rotating the oven
temperature selector.

When the heating light goes out, the oven has

reached the desired temperature. Select the oven
function required and place the food in the oven.

2. With other oven functions

Set the desired temperature by rotating your oven

temperature selector. When the indicator light
goes out the oven has reached the desired preset
temperature, place your food in the oven, close the
door and set the timer if you desire.

3. With ‘Grill’ function

Pre-heat the grill for at least 3 minutes to obtain best

results. This will help to seal the natural juices of
steak, chops and other meats for a better flavour.

USING THE APPLIANCE

IMPORTANT
Cooling / Vent fan
The built-in appliance is fitted with a cooling fan.

This prevents the kitchen cabinet from overheating
and reduces the condensation inside the oven. It
will operate whenever the oven is in use and blow
warm air across the top of the oven door.

Condensation

Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may
happen when cooking large quantities of food from a cold
start. Minimise condensation by:

• Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking to

a minimum.

• Making sure the oven door is firmly closed.

• Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly smaller

than the water container.

• Cooking casseroles with the lid on.

NOTE: If using water in cooking, this will turn to steam
and may condense outside your appliance. This is not a
problem or fault with your oven.

Cooking with the timer

The appliance is equipped with a timer that has the
following features:

• Timer – sets a countdown time that will beep when

the set time has elapsed.

• Cook time – sets cooking duration. A timer will count

down the preset cooking time, beep when the time
has elapsed and turn the appliance off.

• End time – instead of setting a cooking duration, a

cooking finish time can be set. When the finish time
has been reached the timer will beep and turn the
appliance off.

• Delayed start cooking time – combines the cooking

time and end cooking time to switch oven on and off
at a specific time during the day.

Selecting the timer

• Touch the MODE symbol until the timer icon
begins flashing.

• Set the countdown time you want by using the

+ and – symbols. 5 seconds after the last change

the timer icon will stop flashing and the countdown
will start in minutes.

• To stop the beeper, touch any symbol.

• Maximum countdown time is 2hrs 30mins.

Setting the cooking duration

• Select the desired oven function and temperature.

• The oven indicator light will glow and the heating
source will come on.

• Touch the MODE symbol until the cook time icon
begins flashing.

• Set the cooking duration you want by using the +
and – symbols. Five seconds after the last change
the cook time icon will stop flashing, and the time of
day will be displayed. The oven will automatically shut
off once the set duration is reached. To check how
much time remains, press MODE until the cook time
icon is lit. The remaining time will be displayed.

• When the oven shuts off an alarm will beep. To stop
the beeper, touch any symbol.

NOTE: Remember to add pre-heating time if necessary.

12 electrolux.com.au

EVE614 (CONTINUED)

USING THE APPLIANCE

Setting the cooking end time

Check that the clock displays the correct time of day.

Select the desired oven function and temperature.
The oven indicator light will glow and the heating source
will come on.

Touch the MODE symbol until the end time icon begins
flashing.

Enter the time of day you want the cooking to finish by
using the + and – symbols. Five seconds after the last
change, the end time icon will stop flashing and the current
time will be displayed.

To stop the beeper, touch any symbol.

On completion of cooking

The heat source will turn off, the timer will beep and the
end time and/or cook time icons will flash.

Even though the heating element turns off the oven
will still retain substantial heat. This will continue to cook
the food until it is removed or the oven cools down. If you
do not plan on being present when the oven turns off, you
should take this extra heating time into account.

Turn the function and temperature controls to the
off position.

Touch any button to stop the timer beeping.

Adjusting the clock

Touch the MODE symbol until the clock icon begins
flashing.

Touch the + and – symbols to change the time of day.
5 seconds after the last change, the clock icon will
disappear, confirming the time has been adjusted.

Setting the delayed start cooking time

• Set the cook time and end time as described in the
previous sections.

• Once both the cook time and end time have been
set, both icons will stop flashing and the current time
will be displayed.

To check or cancel settings:

• To check settings, touch the MODE symbol until
the desired setting is displayed. The relevant icon will
flash.

To cancel ‘delayed start’ touch the MODE symbol

until the end time icon flashes. Touch and hold the

– symbol until the clock no longer reverses (a beep

will be heard). If temperature and function knobs are
still at a setting, the oven will start once the end time

icon stops flashing.

• To cancel ‘auto shut off’ touch the MODE symbol
until the cook time icon flashes. Touch and hold
the – button until the clock no longer reverses (at
0:00 a beep will be heard). This automatically cancels
‘auto shut off’. If the temperature and function knobs
are still at a setting, the oven will start once the cook
time icon stops flashing. Because ‘auto off’ is
cancelled the oven will continue to heat until it is
manually turned off.

Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The bottom element is a clean heat
element and is below the floor of the oven. Both elements are controlled by the thermostat and will turn on and
off to maintain set temperature. You can use the ‘Bake’ function for single trays of biscuits, scones, muffins,
cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.

Heat comes from the clean heat element below the food. The element is controlled by the thermostat and will
turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The ‘Pastry’ function can be used to add extra browning to the
bases of pizzas, pies, and pastries. Cook in the lower half of the oven when you are using only one shelf.

The ‘Defrost’ function uses low temperature air that is circulated by the fan. You can defrost (thaw) your food
before you cook it. You can also use ‘Defrost’ to raise your yeast dough and to dry fruit, vegetables and herbs.

Grill

Fan Grill

Pyro

‘Grill’ function directs radiant heat from the powerful upper element onto the food. You can use the ‘Grill’ function
for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Preheat your grill for 3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak, chops etc
for better flavour. You can slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the upper pairs of support rails.

‘Maxi Grill’ directs radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements onto the food. You can use the ‘Maxi Grill’ function for
tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods.

Grill with the oven door closed.

‘Maxi Grill’ allows you to take full advantage of the large grill dish area and will cook faster than normal ‘Grill’. For
best results it is recommended to preheat your grill for 3 minutes. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak,
chops etc for a better flavour. You can slide your grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the upper pairs of
support rails.

‘Fan Grill’ offers you the benefits of both ‘Bake’ and traditional ‘Grill’ functions. The grill element turns on and off
to maintain set temperature while the fan circulates the heated air.

Fan grill with the oven door closed.

You can use ‘Fan Grill’ for large cuts of meat, which gives you a result that is similar to ‘rotisserie’ cooked meat.
Put your food on a shelf in the second lowest shelf position. Put your grill dish on the lowest shelf to catch any
spills. When using ‘Fan Grill’ it is not necessary to turn food over during the cooking cycle. Set temperature to
180 °C.

The ‘pyrolytic cleaning’ function cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt and grease from the
oven liner, at high temperature. This process produces ash which can be wiped out of the oven cavity.

required to set the desired cooking temperature in °C.

NOTE: the temperature can be adjusted at any time
throughout the cooking time.

IMPORTANT

Pre-heating

For best cooking results, pre-heat the oven.
Pre-heating allows the oven to reach the required
temperature quickly and efficiently as well as cook
food at the correct temperature for the entire
cook time.

With ‘Rapid Heat’ function

This function allows the oven to reach preset temperature
quicker than any other cooking function. Turn the function
selector to ‘Rapid Heat’, then set the desired temperature,
by rotating the oven temperature selector. When the
heating light goes out, the oven has reached the desired
temperature. Select the oven function required and place
the food in the oven.

With other oven functions

Set the desired temperature by rotating the oven
temperature selector. When the indicator light goes out the
oven has reached the desired preset temperature, place
the food in the oven, close the door and set the timer if you
desire.

With ‘Grill’ function

Pre-heat the grill for at least 3 minutes to obtain best
results. This will help to seal the natural juices of steak,
chops and other meats for a better flavour.

IMPORTANT
Cooling / Vent fan
The appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. This

prevents the kitchen cabinet from overheating
and reduces the condensation inside the oven. It
will operate whenever the oven is in use and blow
warm air across the top of the oven door.

NOTE: If the oven is still hot from cooking, the cooling fan
will keep running to cool the oven down and will switch off
by itself once cool.

Condensation

Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may
happen when cooking large quantities of food from a cold
start. Minimise condensation by:

• Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking to
a minimum.

• Making sure the oven door is firmly closed.

• Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly
smaller than the water container.

• Cooking casseroles with the lid on.

NOTE: If using water in cooking, this will turn to steam and
may condense outside the appliance. This is not
a problem or fault with the oven.

CLEANING THE OVEN

Pyrolytic cleaning of the oven cavity

The oven has the Pyrolytic self-cleaning function. It
cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt
and grease from the oven liner, at high temperature. This
process produces ash which can then be wiped out of the
oven cavity.

WARNING

During the pyrolytic cleaning process the oven
becomes extremely hot.

• Please keep small children at a safe distance.

• Never clean non-stick baking trays and tins in the
oven during the pyrolytic cycle. High temperatures
damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gas
is released.

• To prevent damage, do not use acids, sprays or
similar cleaning agents.

CAUTION

• During pyrolytic cleaning the air outlet

exhaust above the door must be kept clear of
any obstruction (e.g. bulky tea towels).

• Do not use the oven to clean miscellaneous

items (e.g. cookware).

Before carrying out the Pyrolytic function

1. All accessories must be removed from the oven,
including shelves, trays and side racks.

2. Clean large deposits, spills or grease from the
oven cavity.

3. Choose the Pyrolytic cleaning cycle from the
following:

soiling duration

light clean 1hr 30mins
normal clean 2hr 30mins

NOTE: Duration includes heat-up time, excluding
cool-down time.

Light clean

Pyrolytic Cleaning Operation

The pyrolytic cleaning function can be selected by turning
the function selector switch clockwise to the pyrolytic
position. Use the + or – buttons on the electronic clock
to toggle between a pyrolytic cleaning time of 1:30 hours
or 2:30 hours. The pyrolytic function can be stopped at
any time by turning the function selector counterclockwise
to the OFF position.

IMPORTANT

During Pyrolytic cleaning the door will
automatically lock when the temperature in the
oven approaches 300˚C. will appear on the
display. During the pyrolytic cleaning cycle there
may be some burn off odours. It is advised to keep
the room well ventilated during this cycle.

When the pyrolytic cleaning function is on, it is advisable
not to use a cooktop if it is fitted above the oven. This
could cause overheating and damage to both appliances.

The door will only unlock when the oven has cooled to a
safe temperature. Turning the function off will not unlock
the door. This will only happen when safe temperatures
are reached.

NOTE: The cooling fan will operate at an increased speed
for Pyrolytic cleaning and will continue to run until the oven
has cooled down. This is normal. It is recommended to
clean the oven regularly to keep it in its best condition.

After Pyrolytic cleaning

After cool-down, wipe the ash out of the oven with a soft
damp cloth and warm water.

To restore the enamel shine to more difficult areas, use a
damp cloth with vinegar and detergent.

This is an energy saving cycle that can be used on a
regular basis if the oven is lightly soiled. Possibly after every
2nd or 3rd roast.

Normal clean

Use this as the regular cycle about once every
2-3 months.

CAUTION

Do not turn off the mains power supply to the oven
during the pyrolytic cycle. This could damage the
appliance.
