Warning and Safety instructions
This appliance complies with all relevant legal safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage.
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time, read
the operating instructions carefully.
They contain important notes on
safety, on the installation, operation
and care of the appliance. This way
you will avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the appliance.
Do not let children access the appliance or its controls. Supervise its
use by the elderly or infirm.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any future user.
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
the voltage and frequency correspond
to the rating on the data plate, otherwise the appliance could be damaged.
Consult a competent person if in doubt.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system, which complies with local and
national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
tested by a qualified electrician. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system.
This appliance must only be oper-
ated as a built-in appliance. This is
necessary to ensure that all electrical
components are shielded.
Correct usage
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use to cook food, and in
particular to bake, roast, defrost, cook,
dry fruit etc, and to grill.
Any other usage is at the owner’s risk
and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for
damage caused by improper use of the
appliance.
Never open the casing of the ap-
pliance.
Tampering with electrical connections or
components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by suitably
qualified and competent persons to ensure safety. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for unauthorized work.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
– or the mains fuse is withdrawn
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.
danger of overheating).
Use
Caution, danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by
the oven.
Great care should be taken to en-
sure that small children do not
touch the appliance when it is being
used. The oven and also external parts
of the oven such as the door glass,
vents and control panel can become
quite hot.
Use of heat-resistant oven gloves
is recommended when placing
food in the oven, turning or removing it.
When working with "Conventional" heating or when grilling, the element in the
roof of the oven and the guard plate
become very hot, and there is a danger
of being burnt.
Wait until the grill element has
cooled down before lowering it for
cleaning, to avoid the danger of burning.
Do not use force to pull it down as
this can cause the element to
break.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use plastic containers.
They may melt at high tempera-
tures. The oven could be damaged.
Do not heat up unopened tins or
jars of food in the oven, as pressure can build up and they may explode. This could result in injury or
damage.
Do not push pots and pans around
on the oven floor as this could
damage the surface.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven
door, or place heavy items on it.
This could damage the appliance. Take
care in the region of the hinges. The
oven door can support a maximum
load of 10 kg.
Cover any food which is left in the
oven to be kept hot. This avoids
the food drying out. It also prevents
steam condensing and possibly leading to moisture damage in the oven.
If food is left in the oven after cook-
ing, e.g. to take advantage of the
residual heat, select the lowest temperature available. Leave the function
selector switch at the position set.
Do not switch the appliance off until the
food has been removed. Otherwise
there may be a build-up of condensation which could adversely affect the
oven interior, and externally the control
panel, the worktop surface or surrounding kitchen furniture.
Put any deep frozen products such
as pizza on baking paper on the
rack. Do not place them on the baking
tray or grill pan. This could cause the
metal to distort to such an extent that it
might be difficult to remove the
tray/pan from the oven. The distortion
would increase with subsequent use.
General notes
Do not leave the appliance unat-
tended when cooking with oils and
fats as these can be a fire hazard if
allowed to overheat.
Do not use the oven to heat up the
room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the
oven could catch fire.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could give
rise to a short circuit.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking
time, including the size and amount of
food, its temperature, changes to the
recipe and the shape and size of cooking container. Some foods may contain
micro organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking, therefore
when cooking or reheating foods, e.g.
poultry, it is particularly important that
food is fully cooked through. If in doubt
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
It is important that the heat is allowed
to spread evenly throughout the food
being cooked.
This can be achieved by stirring and/or
turning the food, and by observing a
sufficiently long standing time, which
should be added to the time needed
for cooking, reheating or defrosting.
When using kitchen appliances
connected to sockets near the
oven, ensure that the cable cannot get
trapped in a hot oven door, which
could melt the cable insulation and be
dangerous.
Danger of electric shock.
Using alcohol in your recipes
Often alcoholic drinks such as
rum, cognac, wine etc. are used when
preparing dishes and oven-cooking
them. The high temperatures can
cause the alcohol to separate out.
Please take note that under adverse circumstances the alcohol can catch light
on the hot elements.
In countries which may be subject
to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times.
Any damage which might be caused
by cockroaches or other vermin will not
be covered by the appliance guarantee.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine
switch off and disconnect it from
the power supply. This should be done
by a competent person. Cut off and
render any plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the
machine to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by noncompliance with safety instructions.

Description of the systems
Fan Heat D
This system works by the circulation of
heated air.
A fan situated on the back wall of the
oven sucks in the air, heats it over a
ring element and blows the heated air
through the carefully spaced openings
in the rear panel of the oven.
The oven does not usually need to be
pre-heated as the heated air reaches
the food straight away.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven when
roasting meat or baking bread made
with dark flour.
Using the fan heating system you can
bake and roast on different levels at the
same time.
The heated air used by this system is
of a lower temperature than that used
with the Conventional heating system.
Auto Roast E
This setting offers the fan heat with
Auto Roast. The oven heats initially to a
high temperature which seals the meat
to keep it succulent and tasty.
As soon as the high temperature has
been reached, the oven temperature is
automatically returned to the pre-selected setting.
Description of the systems
Conventional heating A
With this conventional method of heating, radiant heat is directed on the food
from above and below.
Pre-heating the oven is only necessary
when
– baking biscuits or cakes with a short
cooking time (up to approx.
30 minutes).
– baking some types of doughs.
– baking bread made with dark flour.
– roasting a joint of meat.
Defrost G
No heating is used.
At this setting air at room temperature
is circulated by the fan, for gentle defrosting.
Grill ,
The inner part of the upper heating element acts as the grill. This will glow red
a few minutes after switching it on and
is then ready for use.
Pre-heat the grill for 5 minutes with the
oven door closed, before placing the
food on the rack.
13
Oven - use
