COOKING FUNCTIONS
There are a variety of cooking functions depending on the model of Built-In Oven you have.
Fan Cooking
Your Built-In Oven may have some of the following fan functions. A fan circulates air giving
more even distribution of temperatures throughout the oven. Fan functions allow you to cook
individual foods or several foods on different shelves and can be successfully used for most
foods.
Fan Bake
A separate fan at the back of the oven circulates hot air from the top and bottom elements
around the oven. Fan Bake is suitable for baked products, slices and pastries.
Fan/Multi Fan
Multi level fan forced cooking circulates heat from an element around the fan throughout the
oven. This function is particularly good for multi tray cooking, reheating cooked foods and
complete oven meals.
Fan Grill
The fan circulates heat from the grill element around the oven. This style of grilling takes the
place of a rotisserie. Fan Grill is suitable for foods you would normally fry e.g. sausages and
meatballs.
7
Grill
To use the grill, select Grill or Eco Grill on the Function knob. The grill can be set to the
required heat by using the Temperature knob. The hottest temperature is achieved at Hi. We
recommend that this temperature is used for grilling meats.
Soft-Touch Models
To use the grill, select Grill on the Function button. The grill can be set to E Eco Grill or H
Full Grill. Both modes have 9 selectable steps which vary the time the elements are on. The
hottest temperature is achieved at Step 9. We recommend that this temperature is used for
grilling meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position. Foods to be
grilled are placed on the grill rack in the deep tray so they can be positioned in the oven
together.

Grill
Grill cooks a larger area of food by using heat from an upper element and is suitable for
family meals or larger amounts of food.
Eco Grill
Eco Grill is suitable for single servings or small pieces of food. By using it, you save energy
by heating a smaller grill area.
When using Eco Grill place your food in the middle of the grill rack.
Bake
Heat comes from the top and bottom of the oven. The bottom element is concealed beneath
the liner cover.
For baked products you will achieve a better result if the oven is pre-heated first.
Bake is suitable for cooking one tray of food at a time.
Classic Bake
With Classic Bake the heat comes from the bottom of the oven only, making it particularly
good for quiches and pies. Preheat on Bake or Fan Bake and when the oven has reached the
required cooking temperature, switch to Classic Bake.
Defrost
The Defrost function uses low temperature air that is circulated by the fan. The temperature
should be set at 50°C at all times. This enables food to be thawed without cooking. Defrost is
also suitable for rising yeast dough and drying fruit, vegetables and herbs.
Warm
Warm is a cosntant low heat. It is useful for keeping hot food warm or for warming plates and
serving dishes.
Warm should not be used to reheat foods, as the food will not reach a temperature high
enough to kill harmful bacteria which may be present.
Warning
We do not advise placing aluminium foil or dishes with reflective qualities on the oven
bottom. This will cause a heat build up which will reuslt in irreversible damage to the
enamel.

Grill is carried out with the door open to the first stop position and preheated until the grill
element is hot and has turned red. The grill element does not cycle on and off.
Fan Grilling is carried out with the door closed and the oven does not need to be preheated.
The grill element cycles on and off and the hot air is circulated by the oven fan. The
thermostat maintains the set temperature. Fan Grill is suitable for products that you would
normally pan fry, barbecue or rotisserie and for larger cuts of meat.
Foods to be Grilled or Fan Grilled are placed on the grill rack in the deep tray so they can be
positioned in the oven together. For Grill, the rack and tray are slotted into the upper runners
depending on the thickness of the food and how well cooked the food is required. Fan Grill
may require the food to be placed lower in the oven.
The times given are a guide only and will be affected by the thickness of the food being
cooked.

These temperatures and times are a guide only and you may need to increase or decrease
these depending on your preferences.
A large piece of meat requires fewer minutes per 500g than a smaller piece. Roasting times
will be affected by the shape and size of the meat being roasted. Meat with a bone will cook
more quickly than a rolled roast.
Do not add water to your roast as this has a steaming affect.
Use a meat thermometer or meat probe to ensure an accurate result. As the internal
temperature of the meat will continue to rise during standing, please allow for this in your
calculation. This is particularly important if you want a rare or medium rare roast.

A cavity ventilation fan is included in Built-In
Ovens. This will come on whenever the oven is in
use. It will blow warm air out above the door. The
cavity ventilation fan will automatically turn off
when the oven is turned off.
On Soft-Touch models, the fan will stay on until
the oven cools down.

CERAMIC COOKTOP
The Ceramic Cooktop is made from glass ceramic, a tough material which is not affected by
changes in temperature. If cared for, it will continue to function well and look attractive for
many years.
Elements
Your cooktop has four individual elements, one of which is a dual circuit element. The
diameters of the cooking area are clearly marked.
The elements become red when turned on full and corresponding indicator lights glow on the
control area.
Temperature limiters are fitted to the element to prevent the glass from overheating. The
limiters may turn the elements on and off during cooking.
Surface Hot Indicator Lights
The surface hot indicator lights are marked on the ceramic glass. The indicator lights will
glow when the element is above a safe touch temperature. After the element control has
been turned off they will continue to glow until the element surface has cooled down to a
temperature that is safe to touch.
Controls
The controls on the underbench oven are push and turn as a safety feature to deter children
from turning the Cooktop on.
As the control knob is turned clockwise, the heat output is increased.
24
Dual Element Controls
To heat the entire element, push and turn control anti-clockwise to Hi.
To heat inner part only, push and turn control clockwise to Hi.
Utensils
To get the best use out of your Cooktop, you may need to look at the following points when
selecting utensils:
The bottom of your cookware should match the size of the cooking area. The
saucepan bottom should be at the most 5mm smaller to 10mm larger than the heated
surface.
When cold, the saucepan bottom must be bowed slightly away from the Cooktop so
that it is flat when heated.
The saucepan bottom must be of sufficient thickness to give even temperature
distribution.
Cookware with uneven bottoms should be smooth with no jagged edges as these will
scratch your Cooktop.
Aluminium and copper cookware can cause a metallic residue to remain on the
Cooktop. This should be removed immediately after use. If this is left it will no longer
be removable from the Ceramic Cooktop.
Saucepan bottoms should always be dry as prolonged use of wet bottomed saucepans
will cause staining to the Cooktop.

CLEANING
Before cleaning we recommend turning the oven
off at the wall. Wipe the outside surfaces
frequently using warm water and a household
detergent or a spray on, wipe off cleaner.
Oven Door
To remove the oven door for easier cleaning:
Open the door fully.
Lift the clips back towards you onto the
hooks.
Raise door slightly, holding on either side
near the handle, making sure that the clips
stay on the hooks.
Lift the door out.
To put door back on, place upper hinge
arm in upper slot and lower hinge arm in
the lower slot. Push the hinges in as far as
they will go until the slot in the lower arm
locates the hinge support.
Hook
Door
Hinge
Lower door gently. The clips will be
released from the hooks.
Raise the door slightly and ensure the clips
are released from the hooks.
Close the door.
Oven Fan Cover
To remove the fan cover:
Place your hands on the sides of the fan
cover.
Lift up and out to unclip the locating hook
and tongues on the cover from the oven
rear.
To replace, fit in the reverse order.

Oven and Oven Runners
Clean the inside of the oven while still warm, using household detergents or an ammonia
based cleaner, e.g. Handy Andy. "Off the shelf" oven cleaners may be used providing the
instructions supplied by the manufacturer are followed carefully. Do not use oven cleaner on
self cleaning liners. The wire side runners may be removed to make cleaning easier.
To remove the runners:
Gently push the retaining wire underneath the stud down then lift the runners up and
towards the centre of the oven. The prongs at the top will slide out.
To replace the runners, hold the runner and push prongs fully into small slots at top of
oven cavity.
Lower runners and gently place retaining wire underneath the stud.
Warning
Do not lower runners until prongs are fully inserted.
Self Cleaning Liners
Self cleaning liners are fitted in some models of Built-In ovens. They help reduce manual
oven cleaning.
Self cleaning liners are fitted to the side walls and back of the oven. The liners are coated
with a special enamel which is porous and contains oxidising catalysts.
Any grease and dirt coming into contact with the liner is absorbed by the enamel and is
broken down with the help of the oxidising catalysts at normal cooking temperatures.
As cleaning is improved by using a high temperature, it may be necessary to run the oven at
Fan Grill, maximum temperature for one or two hours if needed.
The oven roof is self cleaning as the heat from the grill element will break down grease and
dirt which may be deposited.
Warning
Do not use any detergent, abrasives or oven cleaners on self cleaning liners.
Fat Filter
The fat filter should be cleaned after every use. For normal soiling, place in a dishwasher on
normal wash. If the fat filter is very dirty, place in a saucepan with either 2 tablespoons of
washing powder, or 1 tablespoon of dishwasher powder. Bring to the boil and leave to soak
for at least 30 minutes. Rinse the filter in clean water and dry.

Ceramic Cooktop
To keep your Cooktop looking attractive, it is important to clean it regularly.
Normal wear and tear will occur but this will not affect the performance of your Cooktop.
Prior to cleaning your Cooktop, remove any food, spillovers, grease or staining with the razor
blade scraper supplied. Clean the Cooktop while it is still warm to touch. Rinse and wipe dry
with a clean cloth or paper towel. The Cooktop may become stained if cleaning residue
remains.
Cleaners
Mica, Cera-clean, Steel Fix and Hillmark Ceram-X are the recommended cleaners for Ceramic
Cooktop. Do not use abrasive sponges of any type.
Corrosive cleaners such as oven sprays and stain removers should not be used.
Spillovers
Clean the following spillover immediately using the razor blade scraper provided. Do not
let these cool on the cooktop. If allowed to cool, pitting will occur on the surface.
Sugar and sugar syrup
Jam
Melted plastics and plastic wrap
Melted aluminium foil
Anything that MELTS on the ceramic surface may cause pitting if it is left to cool before
removing.
Pitting may also occur when a food with a high sugar content is spilt on the cooktop and not
cleaned up immediately.
Remember that some vegetables, e.g. peas and swedes have a naturally high sugar content.
The use of a conditioner will help prevent molten material bonding with the glass ceramic
causing pitting. The spill must still be removed immediately. The conditioner will only
protect the cooktop for one use and must be re-applied after every use.
Wipe up splashes and spills using a clean damp cloth or damp paper towels.
Metallic Stains
These show as a metallic sheen on the smoothtop. They may be caused by copper-based or
aluminium saucepans. For regular use in removing metallic stains, use Mica, Cera-clean,
Steel Fix and Hillmark Ceram-X.
If the stain is allowed to burn onto the surface, it may react with the glass ceramic and will no
longer be removable.
