When using the rotisserie, the accessible parts of the appliance are hot and the appliance should not be left unsupervised. Take care that children do not play near it. While the rotisserie is operating leave the door half open and put the grill deflector “A” in place. After use the rotisserie and its support are hot, use oven gloves to remove food.

The rotisserie can be used for either spit roasting meat or for kebabs and smaller pieces of meat.

2. Push on the second fork and tighten both forks.

3. Push the skewer into the motor shaft in the back panel and locate the handle end in the support bracket, then fit the bracket into the slot in the top of the front frame. See fig. 9.

The maximum weight permitted on the rotisserie is 4·5 kg.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However,

always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

Use any ovenproof cookware, which will withstand temperatures of 250

Oven dishes, etc. must not be placed directly on the oven base.
