Special attention must be focused on the prescriptions described below regarding room aeration and ventilation.

Room Ventilation

To ensure that the appliance operates correctly, the room where it is installed must be continuously ventilated. The room
volume should not be less than 25m3 and the quantity of air should be based on the regular combustion of gas and on the
ventilation of the room. Natural air will flow through permanent openings in the walls of the room to be ventilated. These openings
will be connected with the outside environment and should have a minimum cross-section defined by current national standards
regarding room ventilation (Fig. 02).
These openings should be built so that they cannot be clogged.
Indirect ventilation is also permitted by taking air from the rooms adjacent to the one to be ventilated.

SUPPORT LEGS

The cookers are supplied with four transit supports (one for each corner).

Four support legs are supplied separately and are fitted on location to the four corners of the lower support frame. Each
support leg is pushed over the relevant transit support until flush with the support frame.

Each leg is adjusted by screwing the lowe r section in or out as required for fitting to a 900mm bench height. For lower bench
tops adjust the height of the legs to 180mm so the hob is located 10mm above the horizontal combustible surface, ref.
AS/NZS 5601.

Legs should be installed with the appliance close to its final
destination, as the legs are not designed for excessive force
and will snap off if too much side force is exerted on them
(dragging along or angled too much). When fitting, try to keep
the appliance as close to a horizontal position as
of a pallet jack is recommended.
If the legs are not used and the cooker is mounted onto a
plinth, four transit supports allow for clearance.

With the legs fitted, the splash-back can be fitted.

With the legs adjusted to a nominal cooker height of 910 mm, and the splash-back fitted, anti-tilt restraint bracket
can be added to the rear of the appliance.
First fit the flat strap to the rear of the cooker at the centre point of the lower rear edge. Use the supplied screw (Fig.

08).
Mark a line on the floor marking the mid-point of the cooker once installed (see Fig. 09) from the back wall. Measure in
(from the back wall) the distance from the hob back (at top) to the rear of the cooker (dimension A), and mark on the
mid-point line (see Fig. 09). Place the retaining bracket against this mark and mark the fixing screw point on the floor.
Mount the retaining bracket to the floor using the supplied fixing screw (for concrete only, for other surfaces an

USING THE OVEN FUNCTION CONTROL KNOB (Fig. 20)

The oven function knob is used to control the electric fan and the oven
elements in set combinations in conjunction with the timer and thermostat.
The electric oven is heated by 4 elements:

a) Upper element (1200W) and grill element (1500W) combined at

the top of the oven cavity.
b) Lower element (1600W) at the bottom of the oven cavity.
c) Two circular elements (1200W) at the rear of the oven cavity,

situated around the 2 internal fans.

Select an oven function by turning the oven function control knob so that the
symbol for the required function is at the top and in line with the index
etched on the control panel above it.
Note: The timer and thermostat must be set correctly for the oven to
function.
To turn electric oven off adjust the oven function control knob to position
0 (no function selected). Setting the thermostat con
0 turns off the elements but it is still possible, using the oven function
knob, to turn on the electric fan and the oven light.

There are 9 functions as per below:

QUICK START/DEFROST FUNCTION: This function runs the rear fans and all elements. The heat generated is too
hot to cook in, but is perfect for preheating the oven (run at the required temperature until the thermostat light turns
off and on a couple of time, then adjusts to the required function setting. To use as a defrost function, leave the
thermostat on 0. This allows air to flow over frozen food speeding up defrost times.

CONVENTIONAL COOKING FUNCTION: This function runs the upper and lower elements. It is dependent on the
timer and the thermostat setting.

LOWER ELEMENT COOKING FUNCTION: This function runs the lower element. It is dependent on the timer and
the thermostat setting. It can be used at l ow temperatures, for slow cooking casseroles & custard, and at high
temperatures for pastries.
UPPER ELEMENT COOKING FUNCTION: This function runs the upper element. It is dependent on the timer and
the thermostat setting. With less power than the grill, this can be used to brown cauliflower cheese and to reheat
lasagne.

GRILL COOKING FUNCTION: This function runs the upper and grill elements. It is dependent on the timer and the
thermostat setting. Best used for shorter grilling times, like toast or crumpets.

GRILL AND FAN COOKING FUNCTION: This function runs the upper and grills elements, and runs both rear

USING THE ELECTRIC OVEN

When using the oven for the first time it should be operated for a maximum of 30 minutes at a temperature of about 250°C to
eliminate any odours generated by the internal insulation. During normal oven use, select the desired cooking temperature using
the thermostat knob and wait until the orange light turns off (set temperature has been reached) before putting in any food. The
oven is equipped with 5 guides at different heights (Fig. 21) which can be used to insert shelves or the tray. To keep the oven as
clean as possible it is recommended to cook meat on the tray or on the shelf that has been inserted inside the tray. Always turn
the oven off by adjusting the oven function control knob to off (0).

NOTE: After use, the cooling fan will continue to run until the internal electrical system has cooled sufficiently.

Fig. 21

When cooking, always open the oven door slightly first (head away from the door), to allow any built-up steam to escape, and
then open fully. Always use heat resistant gloves when removing hot items from the oven. Never line the sides or base of the
oven, or enamel backing dishes with aluminium foil (it can damage the enamel sur
base – always use trays and shelves provided.
Always preheat your oven before cooking (see the quick start function), which allows more accurate timing of cooking.

CONVENTIONAL COOKING
Conventional cooking cooks with heat coming from both the top and bottom, ideal for roasts and pastries. After preheating
oven to the correct temperature (50⁰C to 250⁰C), adjust oven function control knob
inside oven. Set timer if needed.

FAN OVEN COOKING
Fan Oven cooking cooks with heat coming from the rear of the oven, with hot air circulated around by the fans, ideal for
cooking different types of food together without mixing the tastes. Pre-heat the oven for 10 minutes before inserting the trays.
Adjust oven function control knob to fan oven cooking and place food inside oven. Set timer if needed.

GRILLING
The grill is controlled using the oven’s temperature knob. The grill function uses both elements at the top of the oven, so is
faster and more powerful than using the top element alone. Run this function with the door closed and at a temperature
not exceeding 150°C for up to 15 minutes. Use the enamel tray with wire rack insert at positions 1 or 2 (or lower to slow
down the grilling process). Do not leave the tray in the upper positions when not in use, as they will deflect heat away from
food.
Preheat for 5 minutes first before adding the food and tray. This function is best for thinner, quickly cooked food like toast;
for thicker food that will take longer, use the grill and fan cooking function.

GRILLING WITH FANS
This function is similar to the grilling function, but with the rear fans added, allowing a more even heat to flow around the food.
Run this function with the door closed. Place the food on a wire rack and insert at position 3. Place a baking dish on level 5 to
catch any juice or crumbs (this allows the heat to circulate the food). This is better for thicker foods which need to be cooked for
longer times. Preheat for 5 minutes first before adding the food and tray.

USING THE MANUAL TIMER (OF914X)

When not using a timer to cook in the oven, the manual timer control knob should be turned to the manual cooking setting
(Hand symbol between 0 and 120). To use the manual timer, place food into the oven and set up functions and temperature as
applicable. Adjust the time (from 10 to 120 minutes) by turning the manual timer control knob clockwise until the preferred time
is aligned with the index etched on the control panel above it. Once set, the manual timer will start to count down (the control
knob will slowly turn anticlockwise) until 0 is reached, at which point the oven (not gas cooktop) will turn off and a buzzer will
sound. The timer can be adjusted at any point during the cooking function. Do not adjust the knob from anticlockwise from
manual to 120, as this will damage the timer mechanism.
