Safety Information

GB

When used properly your appliance is completely safe but
as with any electrical product there are certain precautions
that must be observed.
PLEASE READ THE PRECAUTIONS BELOW BEFORE
USING YOUR APPLIANCE.

Always

 Always make sure you remove all packaging and literature

from inside the oven and grill compartments before
switching on for the first time.

 Always make sure you understand the controls prior to

using the appliance.

 Always keep children away from the appliance when in

use as the surfaces will get extremely hot during and after
cooking.

 Always make sure all controls are turned off when you have

 Always take care when removing utensils from the top oven

when the main oven is in use as the contents may be hot.

 Always keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease

or fat from cooking can cause a fire.

 Always follow the basic principles of food handling and

hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

 Always keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.
 Always refer servicing to a qualified appliance service

engineer.

 During use the oven becomes hot. Care should be taken

to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.

3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES
BEFORE MOVING IT. Injuries are often caused by picking
up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.

Never

 Never leave children unsupervised where a cooking

appliance is installed as all cooking surfaces will be hot
during and after use.

 Never allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the

appliance.

 Never store items above the appliance that children may

attempt to reach.

 Never remove the oven shelves whilst the oven is hot.

Installation

Electrical Requirements

For your own safety, we recommend that your cooker
is installed by a competent person such as one who is
registered with NICEIC (National Inspection Council for
Electrical Installation Contracting). The cooker should
be installed in accordance with the latest edition of the
IEE Regulations.

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.

Electrical Connections
The installer must check that the voltage shown on the
rating plate corresponds with the house electricity supply.
The cooker must be supplied via a suitable double pole
isolating switch, having a contact separation of at least
3mm in all poles placed in a readily accessible position
adjacent to the cooker. If the cooker is to be wired into a
connector unit, this may be positioned behind the cooker
providing the following requirements are met:

i) The connector unit must not project from the wall
more than 25mm.
ii) The top of the connector must not be more than
130mm above floor level.

Remove the terminal cover at the rear base of the cooker.
Pass the cable through the cable clamp and connect to
the appropriate terminals provided.
Allow sufficient cable for any future servicing.
Tighten the screws on the cable clamp and replace the
cover. Make main connections in the connector unit or
cooker control unit. This appliance conforms to B.S. EN
55014 regarding suppression of Radio and Television
reception interference.
A double Pole control switch having a minimum rating
of 32 amps should be used to feed the cooker using a
suitably rated cable. Where a hob is fitted adjacent to or
over the cooker, a 45 amp Double Pole control switch
should be used to feed both units via separate suitably
rated cables.
We recommend a minimum of 4mm2 PVC insulated twin
and earth cable conforming to B.S. 6004 for connection
of each appliance.

In all cases adhere to routing details (see fig. 4).

This appliance must not be installed over any other
appliance that generates heat such as a plinth heater.

Note: Due to many different types of installation, a mains
cable is not supplied with this product. The installer will
fit the correct type and length of cable.

Important

It is essential that the lower cupboard is constructed in
the manner illustrated i.e. having side, back, and roof

panels so joined as to provide no apertures which could
permit access to the oven unit when installed.

1. General

The appliance is designed for mounting at a safe level
into an oven housing which must be secured to the
backing wall.

2. Ventilation

a. The oven housing unit cabinet dimensions must

comply with fig. 4.

b. An air gap of 50mm minimum must be provided at

the rear of any top or bottom cupboards or shelves
(see fig. 1).

c. It is necessary that the cabinets are provided with

unobstructed ventilation, i.e. from adjacent cabine­try. This can be done by either raising the base of
the cabinets using the adjusting feet (or spacers)
or alternatively by providing a slot in the cabinet
plinth to the dimensions in fig. 1.

d. The air gap at rear allows the warmed air to pass out

of the inner cabinet space. Where it is intended to fit
cupboards above the oven unit to ceiling height, it is
essential that the warmed air is exhausted through
the front of the cabinet (see fig. 1).

e. If an oven unit is installed adjacent to a tall cabinet,

steam escaping from the oven when the door is
opened could condense on and maybe stain the
adjacent surface. To prevent permanent staining,
the adjacent surface should be made of a material
that is heat resisting and easy to clean. Adjacent
tall cabinets should not be deeper than the oven
housing cabinet.

3. Final Installation

a. Using a spirit level, check that the housing cabinet

is level from side to side and from front to back in
its installed position.

b. Correct any unevenness by placing spacers under

the bottom of the cabinet. Make sure that the cabi­net rests firmly on the floor without rocking.

c. Before the oven is fitted, the cabinet must be firmly

secured to the backing wall for stability.

d. The oven unit should now be lifted (this is a two

person lift) into the cabinet and pushed fully home.

e. Finally, the oven is secured to the cabinet by means

of the four Phillips C/SK Head screws - two through
each side trim.

f. Remove all packaging material from the grill and

oven interior.

List of loose items:

4 x Phillips C/SK Head No. 6 x 25mm screws.

The Cooking Modes
in your Oven

Your new appliance is equipped with a number of
different cooking modes:

Manual cooking modes

! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature
which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C
and 250°C for TOP OVEN,
between 800°C and 230°C for MAIN OVEN,(for GRILL
mode- from 5% to 100%). If the oven had been heated
up to a certain temperature level , and the newly selected
temperature is lower than the temperature inside the oven,
the text “Hot” appears on the display. However, it will still
be possible to start cooking.

Conventional Heating (Top Oven)

- with upper and lower heat. This system is particularly
suitable for roasting and baking on one shelf only.

Variable Grilling (Top Oven)

- the oven can also be used for conventional grilling with
a full or half width fully controllable grill.

Note: The Top Oven door should be fully open when
grilling. Temperature level can be modified in this
mode.

Traditional (Main Oven)

Automatic cooking modes

The temperature and the cooking duration are pre­set values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time

- automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.®
(Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking

cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the
dish is cooked. You may start cooking whether the oven
has been preheated or not. The cooking duration can be
customised according to personal taste by modifying the
relevant value - before cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes
depending on the selected programme. The duration can
however be modified even once cooking has begun. If the
temperature inside the oven is higher than the suggested
value for the selected mode, the text “Hot” appears on
the display and it will not be possible to begin cooking;
wait for the oven to cool.

! When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven
buzzer sounds.

! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking
time and temperature.

BAKED CAKES mode

This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are made
using natural yeast, baking powder and desserts which
contain no yeast. Place the dish in the oven while it is still
cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven.
The maximum weight of kake is about 700 g.

GB

- the upper and rear heating elements are switched
on in this position. The traditional oven brings an
outstanding level of temperature distribution and reduced
consumption. In traditional cooking use only one rack to
ensure good heat distribution. By using the various shelf
positions available you can balance the quantity of heat
between the upper and lower part. If cooking requires
more heat from below or above, use the lower or higher
shelves respectively.

MULTILEVEL mode (Main Oven)

Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven,
the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A
maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.

Rising (Main Oven)

- this mode heats and holds the oven at 35-40°C. It is
ideal for proving bread and yeast based dough mixtures.

BREAD mode

Use this function to bake bread. To obtain the best
results, we recommend that you carefully observe the
instructions below:

• follow the recipe;

• do not exceed the maximum weight of the dripping
pan;

• remember to pour 50 g (0,5 dl) of cold water into
the baking tray in position 5.

• The dough must be left to rise at room temperature for
1 – 1 ½ hours (depending on the room temperature)
or until the dough has doubled in size.

Recipe for BREAD:

1 Dripping pan holding 1000 g Max, lower level
2 Dripping pans each holding 1000 g Max, medium and
lower levels

Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 360 g water,
11g salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast)
Method:

• Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.

• Make a small well in the mound of flour.

• Pour in the water and yeast mixture.

• Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over
itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes until
it has a uniform consistency and is not too sticky.

• Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a large
bowl and cover it with transparent plastic wrap to
prevent the surface of the dough from drying out.
Select the manual LOW TEMPERATURE function
on the oven and set the temperature to 40°C. Place
the bowl inside and leave the dough to rise for
approximately 1 hour (the dough should double in
volume).

• Cut the dough into equal sized loaves.

• Place them in the dripping pan, on a sheet of baking
paper.

• Dust the loaves with flour.

• Make incisions on the loaves.

• Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.

• Start the

BREAD cooking mode.

• Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill racks
until they have cooled completely.

FISH mode

Use this function to cook fish with a maximum weight of
1 kg. The paper/foil package can be placed directly on
the dripping pan. Place the food inside the oven while
it is still cold.

ROAST MEAT mode

Use this function to cook beef, veal and lamb. Place the food inside
the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a
preheated oven.The maximum weight of meat is about 1kg.

Solarplus Grill

GB

CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the
grill is in use - children should be kept away.

Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill.
The solarplus grill is designed to reduce your grilling
times. It is quicker because it takes less time to warm up
from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes pre-heat
before food is placed beneath them, but for normal grilling
the solarplus grill can be used from cold without any
pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance
is achieved by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute.

Notes

You will notice that the grill elements are protected by
a wire mesh.
This stops you from touching live parts.

DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects
into the grill mesh as this could damage or break the
element tubes OR if the grill is on cause an electric
shock.

During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt
to clean it while the grill is still on. Turn the cooker off at
the control unit and wait until it has cooled down before
cleaning.

Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not
distorted - DO NOT store the grill pan handle on the grill
pan grid when the grill pan runners are on the top runner
position.
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one
on the right. You can choose to have both sides on or
just the left side on.

GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE
TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED

- This will cause overheating.

To operate the grill proceed as follows:

1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.

2. Position the rod shelf as recommended, in the chart
below, for the food being cooked.

3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is
positioned centrally under the element.

4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this
may cause overheating of fat in the grill pan.

Using the grill pan kit

The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:

1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external ‘hooks’
embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)

2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits exactly
the protruding support of the pan (fig .2) and holds
the pan from the bottom.

The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best
results are achieved by placing the oven rack on the
uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill pan
will make the collection of grease particles more efficient
and prevent the formation of smoke.

Top Oven -

25 mm (1 in)

Conventional Cooking

GB

The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is
provided by the grill element and the element under the
floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper
cuts of meat in casseroles etc. but can also be used for
small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb).

See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.
The top oven can be used either independently to cook
small quantities of food or in conjunction with the main
oven to provide additional cooking space.

 The shelf should be positioned on the first or second

runner from the bottom.

To use the oven proceed as follows:

Select the top oven, by pressing appropriate button
Select desired program by turning the SELECTOR knob,
located to the left.
It’s possible to change default temperature and default
cooking duration. To change temperature turn the
THERMOSTAT/TIMER knob, clockwise to increase
temperature and anticlockwise to decrease the
temperature.
To change the cooking duration, press the TIMER
button, then turn the knob clockwise to increase and
anticlockwise to decrease the cooking duration. Confirm
the desired cooking duration by pressing the TIMER

button again

.

 The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre

of the shelf with a gap of at least 25mm (1in) between
it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and
ensure even cooking.

 Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the

oven.

Platewarming in the top oven

Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will
be heated when the main oven is in use.
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a
meal is being cooked on the hob, place the plates and
serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and
turn the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A
maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is required to
heat the plates and dishes.

NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven
for cooking or warming plates and dishes.

WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items
which could be affected by heat into the oven.
If using aluminium foil, never:

1. Allow foil to touch sides of oven.

2. Cover oven interior with foil.

3. Cover shelves with foil.

The most accurate method of testing the readiness
of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat
thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest
part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat
thermometer will indicate when the required internal temp
has been reached.

MAIN OVEN SIDES AND REAR PANE

(a) How „Stayclean” works.

The surfaces of the „Stayclean” oven liners (Main Oven
rear panel) are treated with a special vitreous enamel
which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220°C
(425°F) or above, the special surface enables these soils
to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature the
more effective it is.

(b) Cleaning.

In most cases normal cooking operations at 220°C
(425°F) will permit this cleaning operation to proceed
during cooking. However if higher cooking temperatures
are not used regularly, it may be necessary, in order to
prevent heavy soiling, to run the ovens without shelves
or meat pan, at a maximum setting for a couple of hours
(Fan Oven mode only).
It should not normally be necessary to clean the
„Stayclean” panels with water. If the user feels it is
desirable to do so, wipe them over with a clean, soapy
cloth, followed by a wipe with a clean damp cloth.

DO NOT use aerosol cleaners on this oven as they
could adversely affect the fan motor unit, and cannot
be wiped off the fan blade.

(c) Solarplus Grill.

To clean the Solarplus Grill, use a clean, damp, soapy
cloth and wipe over. If stubborn stains remain, gently
clean with a well soaped nylon scouring pad and wipe
over with a damp cloth.

DO NOT use metal cleaning utensils, wire wool or
proprietary oven cleaners on the grill element mesh.

Respecting and conserving the environment

Whenever possible, avoid pre-heating the oven and
always try to fill it. Open the oven door as little as possible
because heat is lost every time it is opened. To save
a substantial amount of energy, simply switch off the
oven 5 to 10 minutes before the end of your planned
cooking time and use the heat the oven continues to
generate.

Keep gaskets clean and tidy to prevent any door energy
losses

If something
goes wrong...

Before calling a Service Engineer, please check through the following lists.
THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG.

Problem Check

Slight odour or
small amount of
smoke when grill /
oven used for first
time

Nothing works

Top oven, grill
and main oven do
not work.

This is normal and should cease after a short period.

If you find that the timer display is blank, then it is likely that there is no electricity supply to
your oven. Check:
(i) That the main cooker wall is switched on
(ii) Other appliances, to see if you have had a power cut
(iii) The main circuit breaker for the property

Operating the cooker under the following conditions may cause a safety device to operate:
(a) Grilling with the door closed - Always grill with the door fully open
(b) Grilling for an excessively long period at maximum setting - see Grilling guide.
Switch off appliance and allow to cool for approx 30 mins.
Switch the cooker back on and check that the Grill / Top oven is now operating.

Grill keeps tur­ning on and off

Timer Display is
flashing ‚0.00 ‚

Oven tempera­tures too high or
low

Oven does not
cook evenly

The oven is not
working and
showing F01 to
F68 code in the
display

When the Grill control is operating at less than its maximum setting, the Grill will cycle on
and off, this is normal and not a fault.

The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted, but has now come back on
again. Reset the timer to the correct time and „Manual” operation using the instructions
given in the timer section of the book.

Check temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the Oven Temperature
Charts.
It may be necessary to increase or decrease the recommended temperature slightly to suit
your taste.

Check:
(a) Temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the Oven Temperature

Charts.
(b) Oven utensils being used allow sufficient air flow around them.

Your appliance has developed a fault which will require assistance from our service depart­ment.

see back page.

A gentle flow of air will be blown from beneath the control panel when the appliance is
used. If the appliance is still warm, this cooling fan may run on, or restart itself when all
controls have been turned off. The fan will stop once the appliance has been cooled. This
is normal and not a fault.

Steam is a by - product of cooking any food with a high water content. To help minimise
always:
a) Try to avoid leaving food in the oven to cool after being cooked.
b) Use a covered container, wherever possible.

Disposal of your product

To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of
your product carefully and safely. Remove all doors and
lids. Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by cutting
off flush with the appliance and always ensure that no
plug is left in a condition where it could be connected to
the electricity supply.
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions
should be followed for the disposal of your product.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not be disposed
of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old
appliances must be collected separately in order to
optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials
they contain and reduce the impact on human health
and the environment.
The crossed out „wheeled bin” symbol on the product
reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of
the appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer
for information concerning the correct disposal of their
old appliance.
