Open the top oven / grill door.
Turn the grill control fully clockwise to
select either the full grill setting or
the economy grill setting.
Important: the door must be kept
open when the grill is used - do not use
the grill with the grill door closed. If
the grill door is closed whilst the grill is
in use, it will cause the grill door to
become hot.
To switch off, return the control knob to
the “l” off position.
Note: The grill cannot be controlled by
the programmer.
Detachable grill pan handle
Place the handle over the edge of the
grill pan, at the narrow side edges.
Slide the handle to the centre, and
locate between the handle position
indicators.
Preheating
For best results, preheat the grill for
3 - 5 minutes.
Top oven / grill light
The top oven / grill light will come on
when the control is switched on.
The handle should be removed from
the pan during grilling, to prevent
overheating.
The handle is designed for removing /
inserting the grill pan under the grill
when grilling.
If cleaning the grill pan when it is hot,
use oven gloves to move it. Do not use
the handle to pour hot fats from the
grill pan.
Food for grilling should be positioned
centrally on the trivet.

Using the Grill
Using the grill
The temperature of each grill setting is
fixed. Grilling can be adjusted by
selecting a higher or lower shelf
position, or by adjusting the trivet
position, as detailed below;
The grill trivet inside the grill pan
l
can be inverted to give a high or
low position, or it may be removed
altogether for items such as fish,
which can be grilled on the grill
pan base.
l
Alternatively, foods can be grilled
in a suitably heatproof dish.
For toasting, use the highest trivet
l
position.
The lower trivet position is u s e f u l
l
for grilling all types of meat or fish.
With trivet removed the food can
l
be placed directly on the base of
the grill pan - eg; when cooking
whole fish, or browning dishes
such as cauliflower cheese.
Push the grill pan to the back of the
shelf, to position it under the centre of
the grill.
Never allow fat to build up in the grill
pan, as this creates a fire hazard.
For best results, preheat the grill for
3 - 5 minutes before use.
When you have finished grilling,
check that the control knob is
returned to the “off” position.
Aluminium foil
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil
under the grill creates a fire hazard,
and the high reflectivity can damage
the grill element.

The top oven is a conventional electric
oven.
To switch on the top oven
Turn the top oven control knob clockwise to the desired temperature.
Note: The red thermostat indicator will
come on until the selected temperature
is reached and then go off. It will turn
on and off periodically as the
thermostat operates to maintain the
selected temperature.
To switch off, return the control to the
“l” off position.
Top oven light
The top oven light will come on when
the top oven is switched on.
Notes:
C a u t i o n :The top element gets
extremely hot when in use, so take
extra care to avoid touching it.
Important: Never put items directly
on the base of the oven or cover the
oven base with foil, as this may cause
the element to overheat. Always
position items on the shelf.
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven. When opening the oven door,
care should be taken to avoid any p o ssible contact with potentially hot air,
since this may cause discomfort to people
with sensitive skin. We recommend
that you hold the underneath of the
oven door handle.
Preheating
We recommend preheating the oven
for frozen or chilled food and also for
soufflés, batter mixtures and yeast
mixtures.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
light switches off for the first time, this
will take up to 20 minutes depending
of the temperature selected.

away.
The main oven is a fanned electric
oven.
To switch on the oven
Turn the main oven control knob
clockwise to the desired temperature.
Note: The red thermostat indicator will
come on until the selected temperature
is reached and then go off. It will turn
on and off periodically as the thermostat operates to maintain the selected
temperature.
To switch off, return the control to the
“l” off position.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated when
cooking frozen and chilled food, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés and whisked
sponges, otherwise preheating is not
necessary, as a fan oven warms up
quickly.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
neon switches off for the first time; this
will take between 5 - 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature selected.
To help the air to circulate freely
Position the shelves evenly within
l
the oven and maintain a clearance
from the oven roof and base.
If more than one cooking dish or
l
baking tray is to be used on a shelf
leave a gap of at least 25mm
between the items themselves and
the oven interior.
l
Allow enough space between
shelves for food that will rise
during cooking.
l
Do not place items on the oven
base as this will prevent air from
circulating freely.
Notes:
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven. When opening the oven door,
care should be taken to avoid any p o ssible contact with potentially hot air,
since this may cause discomfort to people

Using the Main Oven
Cooking with a fan oven
If you are used to cooking with a
conventional oven, you will find a
number of difference to cooking with a
fan oven, which will require a different
approach:
There are no zones of heat in a
fan oven, the convection fan at the
back of the oven ensures an even
temperature throughout the oven; this
makes it ideal for batch baking - eg;
when planning a party or stocking the
freezer, as all item will be cooked
within the same length of time.
Cooking times will generally be shorter
- by between 5 - 10 minutes per hour than those times given in recipe books
for conventional cooking.
We recommend preheating the oven
for frozen of chilled food, and also for
soufflés, batter mixtures and yeast
mixtures. Preheat the oven until the
indicator light switches off for the first
time, this will take between 5 to 15
minutes depending on the temperature
selected.
There is no flavour transference in a
fan oven, which means you can cook
strong smelling foods such as fish, at
the same time as mild foods - eg; milk
puddings.
Foods are cooked at a lower
temperature (between 10˚C and
20˚C lower) than a conventional oven,
so conventional recipe temperatures
may have to be reduced.
Defrosting and cooling
To defrost frozen foods, turn the
oven control to the defrost position,
place the food in the centre of the oven
and close the door.
To cool foods after cooking, prior to
refrigerating or freezing, turn the oven
control to the defrost position, and
open the door.
Be safe
Do not defrost stuffed poultry using this
method. Do not defrost larger joints of
meat and poultry over 2kg / 4lb using
this method.
N e v e rplace uncooked food for
defrosting next to cooked food which
is to be cooled, as this can lead to
cross contamination.
Defrosting meat, poultry and fish can
be accelerated using this method, but
make sure they are completely thawed
before cooking thoroughly.
Place meat and poultry on a trivet in a
meat tin.
Defrosting times
Small or thin pieces of frozen fish or
meat - eg; fish fillets, prawns and mince,
will take approximately 1 - 2 hours.
Placing the food in a single layer will
reduce the thawing time.
A medium sized casserole or stew will
take approximately 3 - 4 hours.

A 1
kg / 3lb oven ready chicken will

⁄
take approximately 5 hours - remove
the giblets as soon as possible.

Main oven baking guide
The cooking times given below are only
approximate, because the size and type
of cooking dish will influence cooking
times, as will personal preference.
The times given in the following guide
are based on a preheated oven.
Because a fan oven has an even
temperature throughout the oven, no
shelf positions have been given,
and there is no need to interchange
dishes onto different shelves part
way through cooking as with a
conventional oven.

Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray350mm x 280mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin370mm x 320mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.
Oven shelves
The oven shelf must be positioned
towards the rear of the oven, with the
upstand facing upwards.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
Aluminium foil
Use foil only to cover food or cooking
dishes. Do not use foil to cover the
shelves or oven base, as this creates a
fire hazard.
Slow cooking
Make sure that frozen foods are
thoroughly thawed before cooking.
Do not slow cook joints of meat or
poultry weighing more than 2

For roasting joints of meat or poultry
and for pot roasts, preheat the oven
to 190˚C - 200˚C and cook for 30
minutes, then adjust the oven control to
110˚C - 120˚C for the remainder of
the cooking time.
Slow cooking times will be about
three times as long as conventional
cooking times.
Do not open the oven door unnecessarily during slow cooking, as this will
result in heat loss at low temperatures.
Always use dishes with tightly fitting
lids. To rectify badly fitting lids, place
foil over the dish underneath the lid.

Traditional fruit cakes
It should be remembered that ovens
can vary over time, therefore cooking
times can vary, making it difficult to be
precise when baking fruit cakes.
It is necessary, therefore, to test the
cake before removal from the oven.
Use a fine warmed skewer inserted
into the centre of the cake. If the
skewer comes out clean, then the cake
is cooked.
Do not attempt to make Christmas
l
cakes larger than the oven can
cope with; you should allow at
least 25mm (1 inch) space
between the oven walls and the tin.
Always follow the temperatures
l
recommended in the recipe.
To protect a very rich fruit cake
l
during cooking, tie 2 layers of
brown paper around the tin.
We recommend that the cake tin is
l
not stood on layers of brown
paper, as this can hinder effective
circulation of air.
l
Do not use soft tub margarine for
rich fruit cakes unless specified in
the recipe.
Always use the correct size and
l
shape of tin for the recipe quantities.
Roast turkey
Roasting turkey perfectly involves
cooking two different types of meat the delicate light breast meat, which
must not be allowed to dry out, and
the darker leg meat, which takes
longer to cook.
The turkey must be roasted long
enough for the legs to cook, so
frequent basting is necessary. The breast
meat can be covered once browned.
Turkey should be roasted at 170 -
l
190˚C for 20 minutes per 1lb,
plus 20 minutes unless packaging
advises otherwise.
l
The turkey can be open roasted breast side down - for half of the
cook time, and then turned over for
the remainder of the cooking time.
If the turkey is stuffed, add 5
l
minutes per 1lb to the cooking time.
If roasting turkey covered with
l
foil, add 5 minutes per 1lb to the
cooking time.
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a
fine skewer into the thickest part of the
thigh. If the juices run clear, the turkey
is cooked. If the juices are still pink,
the turkey will need longer cooking.

Page 15
Using the Ovens
Roasting guide
The times given in the roasting guide
are only approximate, because the
size and age of the bird will influence
cooking times as will the shape of a
joint and the proportion of bone.
Frozen meat should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. For large
joints it is advisable to thaw overnight.
Frozen poultry should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. The time
required depends on the size of the
bird - eg; a large turkey may take up
to 48 hours to thaw.
Use of a trivet with a roasting tin will
reduce fat splashing and will help to keep
the oven interior clean. Alternatively,
to help reduce fat splashing, potatoes
or other vegetables can be roasted
around the meat / poultry.
Notes;
When cooking stuffed meat or
l
poultry, calculate the cooking time
from the total weight of the meat
plus the stuffing.
For joints cooked in foil or covered
l
roasters, and for lidded casseroles,
add 5 minutes per 450g (1lb) to
the calculated cooking time.
l
Smaller joints weighing less than
1.25kg (2
1
⁄
lb) may require 5 minutes
2
per 450g (1lb) extra cooking time.
Position the oven shelf so that the
l
meat or poultry will be in the
centre of the oven.
It is recommended that the appliance
l
is cleaned after open roasting.
Allow the appliance to cool before
attempting to clean it.

Automatic cooking in the main oven
The automatic cooking facility is
controlled by the programmer (see
‘Programmer/ Clock’ section) and allows
complete meals, or individual dishes to
be cooked while you are out of the
house, to be ready for when you return.
The ‘Ready Time’ should be set as
close as possible to, or just after your
anticipated return so food is not left
standing in a warm oven.
Do
Select foods which are as fresh as
l
possible, and as cold as possible ie; preferably straight from the
refrigerator.
l
Choose foods which are suitable for
cooking from a cold start, as some
dishes will be affected by being
left uncooked, at room temperature,
perhaps for several hours - eg; a
wet filling on a pastry base.
l
Make sure that meat and poultry
are thoroughly thawed (but still
cold from the refrigerator), before
placing them in the oven, and avoid
using rolled joints of meat which
can be more susceptible to the
growth of food poisoning organisms.
Cover dishes with lids or foil to
l
keep the food moist, prevent the
transfer of odours, and protect from
possible contamination; the food
can be uncovered towards the end
of cooking to crisp and brown.
Do not
Warm food should never be
l
placed in the oven if there is a
delay period. Stews prepared by
frying the meat and vegetables
first should be cooked as soon as
possible, or refrigerated prior to
placing in the oven.
Some dishes are not suitable for
l
cooking on automatic - eg; dishes
containing left over cooked meat
or poultry, eggs, cooked rice or
seafood.
Do not put food items (intended for
l
automatic cooking) into a warm
oven. Allow the oven to c o o l b e f o r e
setting for automatic cooking.
Do not over-fill dishes containing
l
liquids as they might boil over.
Never leave food in the oven to
l
cool slowly after cooking; serve
immediately or refrigerated.
Never use the automatic facility to
l
reheat ‘cook chill’ foods as they
should go straight from the
refrigerator into a preheated oven.
15
Page 17
Using the Ovens
Important: Food is more susceptible
to the growth of food poisoning
organisms in warm conditions. If the
weather is hot, either take care to
ensure that food is not left standing in
a warm oven, or avoid using the
automatic cooking facility.
Hints for automatic cooking
Food is placed in a cold oven so
l
you will need to add about 10 15 minutes onto the cooking time
to allow for the oven to reach the
selected temperature.
Wine or beer may ferment, and
l
cream may curdle during the delay
period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
l
Potatoes should be parboiled or
brushed with oil to prevent
discolouration during the delay
period.
Meat can be brushed with oil to
l
prevent it drying.
Lemon juice can be added to
l
certain fruits and vegetables such
as apples, pears, turnips and
parsnips to prevent discolouration
during the delay period.

Semi-automatic cooking
There are two types of semi automatic
cooking available on this appliance.
The oven must be switched on, and in
use to use either of these functions
successfully.
The Duration method allows you to set
the oven for a specific length of time.
If a dish needed 2 hours to cook, then
it would be possible for you to set the
oven to turn off 2 hours later. This
allows you to be sure that your food
will be cooked for a set length of time
and no longer.
The End Time method allows you to
enter a specific time when you would
like the oven to switch off. If you wish
to leave the oven unattended, then it
offers peace of mind that the oven will
have turned itself off at the set time.
For the instructions on how to use both
of these functions, please see the following page.
Fully automatic cooking
This function incorporates both a duration and an end time and is meant to be
used when you wish to delay the start
time.
We recommend that the first few times
this function is used you are in the
house, this will familiarise you with your
oven and prevents food from being over
cooked or under cooked.
Care must be taken when selecting
foods for this function, it is not recommended for certain food items which
may spoil, or are sensitive to being left.
It is also advisable to set the end time to
be as close to your return as possible to
prevent food being left standing.

Cleaning
Pull out to clean
C a u t i o n :Any cleaning agent
used incorrectly may damage
the appliance.
Always let the appliance cool
before cleaning.
Some cooking operations generate a
considerable amount of grease. This,
combined with spillage, can become a
hazard if allowed to accumulate on
the appliance through lack of cleaning.
In extreme cases this may amount to
misuse of the appliance and could
invalidate your guarantee.
It is recommeded that the appliance is
cleaned after open roasting.
Do not use caustic, corrosive or
abrasive cleaning products, products
containing bleach, coarse wire wool
or any hard implements, as they will
damage the surfaces.
All parts of the appliance can be safely
cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water.
Vitreous enamel parts
GRILL PAN,MAIN OVEN BASE,TOP OVEN
GRILL COMPARTMENT
Use a mild cream cleaner - eg; “Cif”.
Stubborn marks may be removed with
a moistened “Brillo” pad.
The grill pan may be cleaned in a
dishwasher, or with a nylon brush in
hot soapy water.
Chrome plated parts
OVEN SHELVES&OVEN SHELF RUNNERS
GRILL PAN TRIVET
Do not use abrasives or polishes. Use
a moist soap pad - eg; “Brillo”.
Shelf runners can be removed for
cleaning. Grasp the runners, and slide

Cleaning
Stainless steel surfaces
FACIA PANEL,HANDLES
Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water, and dry with a soft cloth.
Stubborn marks can be removed using
“Luneta”. We recommend that you
clean the whole of the stainless steel
area to maintain a uniform finish.
Supplies can be purchased from the
Customer Care Centre.
Do not use undiluted bleach or any
products containing chlorides as they
can permanently damage the steel.
Extra care should be taken when
cooking food in salted water. Some
foods are corrosive - eg; vinegar, fruit
juices and especially salt - they can
mark or damage stainless steel if they
are left on the surface. Turn off and
wipe any spillage immediately, taking
care to avoid skin contact with any hot
surface or spillage.
Sharp objects can mark the surface of
stainless steel, but marks will become
less noticeable with time.
To maintain the finish of the stainless
steel, or to remove any greasy marks,
wipe the stainless steel surface
sparingly with a minimum amount of
“Johnson’s Baby Oil” and kitchen
paper. Do not use cooking oils, as
these may contain salt, which can
damage the stainless steel surface.

Glass door panels
To meet the relevant standards of
Domestic cooking appliances, all the
glass panels on this appliance are
toughened to meet the fragmentation
requirements of BS 3193. This ensures
that, in the unlikely event that a panel
breaks, it does so into small fragments
to minimise the risk of injury.
Please take care when handling, using
or cleaning all glass panels as any
damage to the surfaces or edges may
result in the glass breaking without
warning or apparent cause at a later
date. Should any glass panel be
damaged, we strongly recommend
that it is replaced immediately.
