DESCRIPTION OF THE COOKER
Built in electric double oven
WARNING: THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED
Top Oven / Dual Grill
Electronic Timer
Control knob
Control Panel
Fan Oven
Your built in cooker comprises of a conventional oven and dual grill in the top compartment. The top oven is convenient and economical for mid week use because of its size. The fan oven is the larger of the two ovens. It is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food. The fan oven can be automatically controlled by the electronic timer.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
Your cooker has a cooling fan fitted behind the controls to prevent them from overheating. The cooling fan will come on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when either of the ovens are in use. The cooling fan may turn on and off when the cooker is in use. This is quite normal.
The cooling fan may run on after the ovens or grill are switched off for a period of time to cool the cooker down. It may continue to switch on and off until the cooker is cool.
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the cooker down before switching off at the wall prior to carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the ovens or grill have been used and at what temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on where the grill or oven has only been used for a short time.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill are switched on. When the grill or ovens are switched on the neon illuminates. In the case of the ovens, the neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. They will turn on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained.
The grill neon does not turn on and off when the grill is in use.
The fan oven neon does not operate with the Defrost function.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all controls to zero and re-set following the instructions for the required setting.

BEFORE USING THE COOKER
RATING PLATE
Record the model, product and serial numbers of your cooker on the back page of this instruction book for future reference. You can find these numbers on the rating plate on the front frame of the cooker upon opening the top oven door. The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the cooker as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR COOKER
Wipe over the base of the ovens with a soft cloth and hot soapy water and wash the grill and oven furniture before use. We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 - 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from their surfaces. The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON
The timer must be set to manual operation before the Fan oven can be operated. This must be done whenever the cooker is switched off at the wall or when there has been a power failure. For instructions on how to set the timer see page 10.
If the Fan oven indicator neon does not glow when the oven temperature control is turned, it is most likely that the timer is set for automatic cooking. The Top Oven and the Dual Grill are not controlled by the electronic timer.
CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens are vented to allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the cooker when opening the oven doors to allow any build up of steam or heat to release. If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the cooker, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the cooker. To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly wipe away condensation and any soilage from the cooker surfaces.
7
COOKWARE
Baking trays, dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm (12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance. Advice on the effect of different materials and finishes of bakeware is given in 'Hints and Tips' in the appropriate oven section.
THE TRIVET
When roasting we recommend that you use the trivet in the meat tin. Fat and meat juices will drain into the meat tin below and can be used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.
Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a heated hotplate as this may cause the enamel to crack.
8
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker.
1 grill pan
1 grill pan handle
1 grill pan grid
1 trivet
1 meat tin
2 shelves for fan oven cooking
1 shelf for grilling and top oven cooking

THE DUAL GRILL
WARNING - Accessible parts become hot when the grill is in use. Keep children away.
USES OF THE GRILL
The grill is situated in the Top oven compartment. The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill or the centre section only can be used. Use the full grill for cooking larger quantities of food. Use the centre section for economy purposes when cooking smaller quantities of food.
HOW TO USE THE DUAL
1.Open the Grill / Top Oven door.
2. Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or
anticlockwise for the centre section only.
3.Ensure the Top Oven control is in the Off
position 'O'.
GRILL
DUAL GRILL
TOP OVEN
The grill door must be left open when grilling.
THINGS TO NOTE
The cooling fan for the controls will operate
as soon as the grill control is turned. For
more information on the operation of the
cooling fan turn to page 6.
The inner section of the grill element may
appear to glow brighter than the outer
section. This is quite normal.
The grill indicator neon will glow until the
desired power level has been reached. It will
turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking
showing that the temperature is being
maintained.
We recommend you use the grill pan on the
shelf in positions 3 or 5 only.
If you use the grill pan in position 3 the shelf
must be withdrawn before the pan can be
located or removed.
5 4 3 2 1
Ensure the grill pan is properly located.

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan has a removable handle. To insert the handle, press the button on the
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button.
Ensure the handle is positively located.
To remove the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards and towards the right to remove from the bracket.
Protect your hands when removing the grill pan handle.
Always remove the grill pan handle during grilling.
To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure that the cut out on the underside of the handle bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.
The Grill Pan must not be located in the shelf runners.
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking.
Ensure that you support the grill pan when it is withdrawn.
HINTS AND TIPS
Most foods should be placed on the grilling
grid in the grill pan. This allows maximum
circulation of air by raising the food out of fats
and juices.
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food.
Position the food close to the element for
faster cooking and further away for more
gentle cooking.
14
The grill pan grid is reversible. This is useful if
you want to cook foods of varying thickness.
As a general rule, bread for toasting should
be placed on the grid in the ' high ' position in
the grill pan. Foods such as chicken pieces or
chops may be grilled using the grilling grid in
the low position.
Food should be thoroughly dried before
grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean
meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted
butter to keep them moist during cooking.
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the
grid when grilling meats.
The food should be turned over during
cooking as required.
The grill door must be left open when grilling.
For convenience the grill door can be left
ajar.
Preheat the grill on full setting for a few
minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.
Adjust the heat setting and the shelf position
as necessary during cooking.
