Storage Drawer

The storage drawer is located underneath the oven cavity.

During cooking the storage drawer may become
hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time,
therefore flammable materials such as oven gloves,
tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be
stored in the drawer.

Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also
become hot, therefore care should be taken when
removing these items from the drawer whilst the
oven is in use or still hot.

Operation

Push-Pull control knobs

Some models are provided with push-pull control knobs
(see picture). These knobs can be completely sunken
inside the control panel when the oven is not working.

Electric hotplates

To switch on the hotplate, turn the relevant control knob
to the required heat setting.

The control knob is numbered 1 - 6

0 - OFF
1 - Minimum
6 - Maximum

The hob has two types of hotplates:

Normal hotplates (back right and left, front right)

We recommend the plates are switched to maximum (6)
for a short while to boost the plates, and then adjusted to
the required setting.

Rapid hotplate (front left)

The rapid hotplate is indicated by a red dot, and will heat
up more quickly than a normal plate. As the red dot is
painted on the plate, it may deteriorate during use and
even disappear completely after a period of time. This will
not affect the performance of the hob.

It is important to note that the plate may smoke
and produce a slightly unpleasant odour when used
for the first time. This is quite normal and will
disappear after a short while.

Mains on Light

The mains on light will come on when the oven function
control knob and/or the hotplate control knobs are set.

Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are given
in the following table.

OFF 0

Very Gentle 1 To keep food warm

To melt butter and chocolate

Gentle 2 To prepare cream-sauces, stews

and milk puddings or to fry eggs

Slow 3 Dried vegetables, frozen food, fruit,

boiling water or milk

Medium 4 Boiled potatoes, fresh vegetables,

pâtés, soups, broths, pancakes or
fish

High 5 Larger stews, meat roll, fish,

omelettes, steaks

Fast 6 Steaks, escalopes and frying

Hints and Tips for using the hob

Saucepans for use on solid plates should have several
characteristics:

• They should be fairly heavy duty.

• They should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly
larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller.

• They should have a flat base to ensure good
contact with the plate.

This is particularly important when using pans for high
temperature frying or pressure cooking.

As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the
plate control knob so that it will barely keep the
liquid simmering.

You can switch off the plate a short while before
you finish cooking, and the final stage will be
completed on the accumulated heat. Similarly,
stews etc. cooked in well covered saucepans cook
at lower temperature which is more economical.

Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liquids
being spilt onto the plates.

Never leave the plates on without a pan on them
or with an empty pan on them.

Take care never to lean or reach over a hot electric
plate. Always point pan handles inward or over
the work surface next to the hob to avoid
accidentally knocking over a pan as you pass
by.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the
overheated splashes could easily ignite.

If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Service Centre.

Electric Oven

Oven Function and Thermostat
control knobs

They enable to select the most appropriate type of
heating for the different cooking requirements by
appropriately connecting the heating elements and
adjusting temperature to the required level.

Conventional cooking - The heat comes from both

the top and bottom element, ensuring even
heating inside the oven.

Bottom heating element - The heat comes from

the bottom of the oven only.

Top heating element - The heat comes from the

top of the oven only.

Grill - The grill element will be on.

Fan cooking - This allows you to roast or roast and

bake simoultaneously using any shelf, without
flavour transference.

Defrost Setting - This setting is intended to assist

in thawing of frozen food.

Thermostat Control Knob

Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to select
temperatures between 50°C and 230°C (MAX).

Thermostat Control Light

The thermostat control light will come on when the
thermostat control knob is turned. The light will remain on
until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle
on and off to show the temperature is being maintained.

Mains on Light

The mains on light will come on when the oven function
control knob and/or the hotplate control knobs are set.

The Safety Thermostat

This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of
malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequential
over-heating, the safety device will stop the power supply
to the appliance. If this happens, call your local Service
Force Centre. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
