Installation

GB

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

GB

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 80°C and 230°C for MAIN OVEN,
(for GRILL mode- from 5% to 100%).

When the temperature in the oven has

reached a certain 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

mode.mode.

Traditional (Main Oven)

- 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.

Automatic cooking modes

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 the cake is about 700 g.

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.

• Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately

35 degrees).

• 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.

GB

• Start the

BREAD cooking mode.

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

Solarplus Grill

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 kitUsing 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 ­Conventional Cooking

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

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.

&

Warning: Before cleaning, please ensure that the
electricity supply to the appliance is switched off
and the appliance is fully cold.

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.

!

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.

! The accessories can be washed like averyday

crockery (even in your dishwasher).

1. "STAYCLEAN" OVEN LINERS*
(Top Oven Sides, Main Oven Sides and
Rear Panel)

TOP OVEN SIDES

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 biological washing powder, harsh
abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind
as this could damage the "Stayclean" oven liners.

GB

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).

(b) Grill Pan, Meat Pan* & Oven Shelves.

To prevent stains from being burnt on to the grill
pan, food support and rod shelf, always wash
immediately after use in warm soapy water.
Use a well soaped fine steel wool soap pad to
remove stubborn stains from the rod shelves, grill
pan, meat pan and the base of the oven.

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.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24

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.
