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
Fig. 06
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 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. Follow the instructions shown in Fig. 07.

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 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 low 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.

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 surface). Never cook or place cookware on the 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 (50C to 250C), adjust oven function control knob 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 (OF914FX)
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.

Cleaning the work surfac Periodically clean the burner par t s and t r i vet s a s li s t ed b e l ow. Note that all parts must be thoroughly rinsed and dried before being replaced. Any liquid that overflows from pots must always be removed using a rag. If it becomes difficult to open or close a valve, do not force it, but immediately contact the omega service department.
e
Cleaning the enamelled parts The trivets and burner covers are cast iron with an enamel coating. To maintain the original features of the enamelled parts they should be cleaned frequently with soapy water. Never use abrasive powders. Do note leave acidic or alkaline substances on the enamelled parts (vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato sauce, etc.) and do not wash the enamelled parts while they are still hot.
Cleaning the STAINLESS steel parts Clean the parts with soapy water and then dry them with a soft cloth. The shine is maintained by periodically using special products that generally are found in the market. Never use abrasive powders.
Cleaning the burner bodies The aluminium burner bodies sit on the burner bases. Remove from the base and wash them with soapy water. Rinse and dry, and check that all holes and slots are fully cleaned. Replace on the burner bases, taking care that they are positioned and orientated correctly.
Cleaning the inside of the oven To thoroughly clean the inside of the oven, it is recommended that the door be removed first. First lock the hinge in place with the nail supplied (01-02). With the hinges fixed, grab both sides of the door and slowly work the door off the hinges towards you. Once fully removed, place in a safe position until it is time to fix back in place (in the opposite order). The internal rack guides can also be temporarily removed by undoing the screws holding them in place and lifting out.
