BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON
The timer must be set to manual operation before the
Main oven can be operated. This must be done
whenever the appliance 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.
The Top Oven and the Dual Grill are not controlled
by the electronic timer.
RATING PLATE
This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the top
cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be
found on the back or top of some models (where
applicable).
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance
as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE
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 and odour may be emitted, it is
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
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 appliance 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 appliance, e.g. a
trim, it will condense and produce water droplets.
This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on
the appliance.
To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly wipe
away condensation and any soilage from the
appliance surfaces.
7
Page 8
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 COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
Your appliance 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
appliance 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
appliance down. It may continue to switch on and off
until the appliance is cool.
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the
appliance 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 on at all at lower
temperature settings nor run on where the grill or
oven has only been used for a short period of time.
FAN SELECTOR INDICATOR NEON
The Fan Selector neon operates when the fan
Selector button is pushed out.
The Selector neon will illuminate with all Top oven
functions, except the conventional oven.
The neon will turn on and off during use to show that
the temperature is being maintained.
POP IN POP OUT CONTROLS
These control knobs can remain flush with the control
panel when not in use, or pushed and released to
stand out from the panel for easy operation.
FAN SELECTOR BUTTON
The Top oven enables you to cook with the oven fan
in operation or by conventional means. Push out the
Fan Selector button for fan assisted cooking. Refer
to the appropriate oven section for full instructions.

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 centre section for economy purposes
when cooking smaller quantities.
HOW TO USE THE DUAL GRILL
1. Open the Grill / Top Oven door.
2. Push and turn the grill / top oven control clockwise
past the maximum oven temperature to the
settings that control the grill.
3. The first three settings control the full area at
¼ ( ), ½ ( )and full power ( ). Set to
full power at first then turn down as necessary.
The fourth setting is for the centre section of the
grill only ( ). This section operates at full
power.
The grill door must be left open when
grilling.
The grill pan must not be located in the
shelf runners.
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 8.
· The outer section of the grill element may appear
to glow brighter than the inner section. This is
quite normal
· We recommend you only use the grill pan on the
shelf in positions 3 or 5.
If you use the grill pan in position 3 the
shelf must be withdrawn before the pan can
be located or removed.
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 slightly upwards inserting
the lip into the widest part of the bracket. Move the
handle towards the left, lower into position and
release the button.
Ensure the handle is properly 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 to allow for
different thicknesses of food. Position the food
close to the element for faster cooking and
further away for more gentle cooking.
15
Page 16
· The grill pan grid is reversible. This is useful if
you want to cook foods of varying thicknesses.
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.

THE FAN ASSISTED TOP OVEN
USES OF THE FAN ASSISTED OVEN
The Top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is
convenient for mid-week meals where smaller
quantities or convenience foods are being cooked. It
is important to refer to the top oven cooking chart as
a guide to shelf positions and temperatures as these
may differ from previous appliances you may have
used.
HOW TO USE THE FAN ASSISTED OVEN
1. Push out and turn the Grill / Top oven temperature
control clockwise to the required setting.
2. Push out the Fan Selector button.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The Fan Selector neon will glow throughout
cooking.
· The top oven indicator neon will illuminate. It will
turn on and off during cooking to show that the
temperature is being maintained.
· The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a time. See page 8 for more information on the
operation of the cooling fan.
· The oven light will illuminate.
Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly
on the oven base as it becomes very hot
and damage will occur.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
There are 5 shelf positions in the Top oven.
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.
5
4

The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven.
If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop
mechanism will be affected.
18
Page 19
HINTS AND TIPS
· Use the Top oven when you want to warm plates.
Use a setting of 80°C – 100°C on the oven
temperature control.
· You can use two shelves when using the fan
assisted oven.
· There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”)
between the top of the food and the grill element.
This gives best cooking results and allows room
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc.
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones bread etc.,
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the
shelf.
· Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf
and there is sufficient room around the baking
tray or dish to allow for maximum circulation.
· Where a degree of evenness in baking is
required, it may be necessary to interchange
food during cooking.
· Where a larger quantity of food is to be cooked
we recommend you use the main oven.
· Place dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base
and to help reduce cleaning.
· The material and finish of the baking tray and
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick
utensils increase base browning. Shiny
aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat
away and give less base browning.
· For economy leave the door open for the shortest
possible time, particularly when placing food into
a pre-heated oven.
· Do not use the grill pan or meat tin as a baking
tray as this will increase base browning of the
food.
· Because of the smaller cooking space and lower
temperatures, shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the
recommendations in the cooking chart.
19
Page 20
THE CONVENTIONAL TOP OVEN
USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to
cook without the fan in operation.
It is particularly suitable for some cook chilled
convenience foods and dishes which require extra
base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans.
Gratin's, lasagne and hotpots which require extra top
browning also cook well in the conventional oven.
For best results cook on one level.
HOW TO USE THE CONVENTIONAL
OVEN
1. Push in the Fan Selector button.
2. Push out and turn the Grill / Top oven
temperature control clockwise to the required
setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The top oven indicator neon will illuminate. It will
turn on and off during cooking to show that the
temperature is being maintained.
· The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a short time. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. See
page 8 for more details on the operation of the
cooling fan.
· The oven light will illuminate.
Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly
on the oven base as it becomes very hot
and damage will occur.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
There are 5 shelf positions in the Top oven.
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.

20
Page 21
HINTS AND TIPS
· The middle shelf allows for the best heat
distribution. To increase base browning simply
lower the shelf position. To increase top
browning, raise the shelf position.
· The material and finish of the baking trays and
dishes used will affect base browning.
Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils
increase base browning, while oven glassware
shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the
heat away and give less base browning.
· Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to
ensure even browning.
5

1
· Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and
make cleaning easier.
· Single level cooking gives best results. If you
require more than one level of cooking use the
fan assisted function or main fan oven.
· Because of the smaller cooking space and lower
temperature, shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the
recommendations in the cooking chart.
· For economy leave the oven door open for the
shortest possible time particularly when placing
food in a preheated oven.
· Where a larger quantity of food is to be cooked
we recommend you use the fan assisted or main
fan oven.

THERMAL GRILLING IN THE TOP OVEN
USES OF THERMAL GRILLING
Thermal grilling in the Top oven offers an alternative
method of cooking food items normally associated
with conventional grilling.
The grill element and the oven fan operate together,
circulating hot air around the food. The need to
check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling
helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and
allows you to grill with the oven door closed. With
the exception of toast and rare steaks you can
thermal grill all the foods you would normally cook
under a conventional grill.
Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie,
lasagne and au gratin's can be heated through and
browned on the top using the thermal grilling
function.
COOKING TIMES
Cooking is more gentle, therefore food generally
takes a little longer to cook when thermal grilling
compared with conventional grilling. One of the
advantages is that larger quantities can be cooked at
the same time.
A general guide to cooking times is given on page 25
but these times may vary slightly depending on the
thickness and quantity of food being cooked.
HOW TO THERMAL GRILL
Always thermal grill with the oven door
closed and with the grill pan handle
removed.
The grill pan must not be located in the
shelf runners.
1. Push out the Fan Selector button.
2. Push out and turn the Top oven / Dual Grill control
past the maximum oven setting to the required
grill setting. The first three settings control the full
area at ¼ ( ), ½ ( ) and full power ( ).
Set to full power at first then turn down as
necessary. The fourth setting is for the centre
section of the grill only ( ). This section
operates at full power.
3. Locate the grill pan on shelf 3 or 5.
4. Remove the handle from the grill pan and close
the oven door.
If you use the grill pan in position 3, the
shelf must be withdrawn before the pan can
be located or removed.
Ensure the grill pan is properly located.
23
Page 24
THINGS TO NOTE
· Shelf position 3 is suitable for most foods.
· Half setting ( ) is suitable for most thicker
foods such as chicken quarters and pork chops.
Full setting ( ) is suitable for foods such
as bacon.
· The top oven indicator neon will illuminate. It will
turn on and off during cooking to show that the
temperature is being maintained.
· The selector indicator neon will glow throughout
cooking.
· The oven fan will operate continually during
thermal grilling.
· The cooling fan for the controls will come on
when the grill is turned. It may run on after the
controls are switched off until the appliance has
cooled. See page 8 for more details on the
operation of the cooling fan.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Prepare foods in the same way as for
conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish
lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist
during cooking.
· Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid
in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow
maximum circulation around the food.
· Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed below the grid when
grilling meats, or in a separate dish on a lower
shelf.
24
Page 25
· Turn food over during cooking as necessary.
· Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled
dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne,
etc., are piping hot throughout before serving.
· Be prepared to make suitable adjustments to the
grill setting during cooking to suit individual
requirements. It may be necessary to turn down
as required. If thermal grilling on more than one
level, it may be necessary to interchange the
food on the shelves during cooking.
· With the exception of toast and rare steak you
can thermal grill all foods normally grilled by
conventional methods.

TO DEFROST IN THE TOP OVEN
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE
This function enables you to defrost most foods
without heat faster than some conventional methods
as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is
particularly suitable for defrosting delicate frozen
foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled
gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings,
cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc.
HOW TO DEFROST
1. Push out the Fan Selector button.
2. The Dual grill / Top oven control should be in the
Off '0' position.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The oven fan will operate.
· The fan selector indicator neon will illuminate.
· The oven light will illuminate.
· The top oven indicator neon may illuminate. It
may turn on and off during defrosting.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Place the frozen food in a single layer where
possible and turn it over half way through the
defrosting process.
· The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by
room temperature. On warm days defrosting will
be faster than on cooler days.
· It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry
slowly in the fridge. However, this process can
be accelerated by using the defrost function.
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled pawns,
cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks
etc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
· A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in
approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as
soon as possible during the thawing process.
· Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be
thawed using the defrost function.
· All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed
thoroughly before cooking.
· DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it
is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store
cooked food in the fridge.
· Care must always be taken when handling foods
in the home. Always follow the basic rules of
food hygiene to prevent bacterial growth and
cross contamination when defrosting, preparing,
cooking cooling and freezing foods. This is
particularly important if the main oven is in use or
is warm, as the temperature in the Top oven will
be higher than room temperature.
26
Page 27
THE MAIN FAN OVEN
USES OF THE FAN OVEN
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger
quantities of food.
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:
PREHEATING
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is
not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without
preheating however you may need to add an extra 5
– 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
For recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread,
pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are
achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best
results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready
meals preheat the oven first.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the
temperatures recommended in the chart on page 31
until you are familiar with the lower temperatures
associated with Fan oven cooking. As a guide
reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own
recipes, using a conventional oven.
BATCH BAKING
The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels,
especially useful when batch baking.
HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN
1. Push out and turn the Selector to Fan oven.
2. Push out and turn the main oven temperature
control to the required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The oven light will come on when the Selector is
set.
· The oven fan will operate continually during
cooking.
· The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a time. See page 8 for further details on the
operation of the cooling fan.
· The oven indicator neon will turn on and off
during cooking to show that the temperature is
being maintained.
· If an automatic programme has been set, the
oven fan and oven light do not come on until the
cook time begins.
27
Page 28
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt
and safety stop mechanism will be affected.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are
counted from the bottom upwards.
· When cooking more than one dish in the fan
oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves
rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf,
this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the
best cooking results.
7
1
· It is recommended that when baking larger
quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight
increase in cooking time may be necessary.
· The material and finish of the baking tray and
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick
utensils increase base browning, while oven
glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel
trays reflect the heat away and give less base
browning.
· The use of excessively high temperatures can
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary to
reduce temperatures slightly. Refer to the
recommendations given in the oven cooking
chart, on page 31.
28
Page 29
THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to
cook without the fan in operation. It is particularly
suitable for dishes which require extra base browning
such as pies, quiches and flans. Au gratin's, lasagne
and hotpots which require extra top browning also
cook well in the conventional oven. For best results
cook on one level.
HOW TO USE THE CONVENTIONAL
OVEN
1. Push out and turn the Selector to
Conventional Oven.
2. Push out and turn the main oven
temperature control to the required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The oven indicator neon will turn on and off
during cooking to show that the temperature is
being maintained.
· The internal oven light operates when the
Selector is set. If an automatic cooking
programme is set, the oven light will come on
when the cooktime begins.
· The cooling fan for the controls may operate after
a time. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. See
page 8 for more details on the operation of the
cooling fan.
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays
directly on the oven base as damage will
occur.
29
Page 30
HINTS AND TIPS
· The middle shelf allows for the best heat
distribution. To increase base browning simply
lower the shelf position. To increase top
browning, raise the shelf position.
· The material and finish of the baking trays and
dishes used will affect base browning.
Enamelware, dark heavy or non-stick utensils
increase base browning, while oven glassware,
shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the
heat away and give less base browning.
· Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to
ensure even browning.

· Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and
make cleaning easier.
· Single level cooking gives best results. If you
want to cook on more than one level use the fan
oven functions.

CARE AND CLEANING
Before cleaning the appliance always allow
the cooling fan for the controls to cool the
appliance down before switching off the
electricity supply.
CLEANING MATERIALS
Before using any cleaning materials on your
appliance, check that they are suitable and that their
use is recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE
APPLIANCE
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials or scourers
on the outside of the appliance as some of the
finishes are painted and damage may occur.
Regularly wipe over the control panel oven doors and
handles using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water to which a little liquid detergent has been
added.
Any spillage on the stainless steel finish must be
wiped off immediately.
Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive and
should be avoided as they may dull the surface
finish.
To prevent streaking on stainless steels models finish
with a soft cloth.
Do not attempt to remove any of the control
knobs from the panel as this may cause

CLEANING THE OUTER AND INNER
DOOR GLASS PANELS
To prevent damaging or weakening of the
door glass panels avoid the use of the
following:
· Household detergents and bleaches
· Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-
stick saucepans
· Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
· Chemical oven pads or aerosols
· Rust removers
· Bath/Sink stain removers

Page 40
TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS
1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the
two cross head screws on the top of the oven
door.
2. Loosen the two screws using a Pozidrive
screwdriver.
3. Hold the door glass securely in place with one
hand remove the screws and washers with the
other hand.
The screws and washers retain the trim on the top
of the door. Note the position of the trim on the
door.
4. Holding the door and glass with one hand, gently
pull towards you and slightly lift the door glass
with the other hand to disengage the panel from
the location point at the bottom of the door.
Gently release the door to close it.
5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy
water or Hob Brite. Should the inner face of the
outer door glass be heavily soiled it is
recommended that soapy water with a high
concentration of soap is used. To prevent
streaking a glass cleaning spray may be applied
and the glass polished with a soft cloth. Ensure
that all parts are thoroughly dry before attempting
to replace the outer door glass.
6. DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials or
scourers on the outside of the appliance as
damage will occur.
Grill Door Trim
Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive
and should be avoided as they may dull the
surface finish.
To prevent streaking on stainless steel models
finish with a soft cloth.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or
has deep scratches the glass will be
weakened and must be replaced to prevent
the possibility of the panel shattering.
Please contact your local Service Force
Centre who will be pleased to advise
further.

Page 41
TO REPLACE THE OUTER DOOR GLASS
1. Holding the oven glass with both hands, gently
place the locators into the holes of the brackets
at the bottom of the oven door.
2. Holding the door glass with your left hand, use
your right hand to open the oven door.
Bring the door gently towards the glass panel
ensuring the screw location holes line up.
3. Place the trim in the correct position on the top of
the door.
4. Hold the glass in place with one hand and insert
the cross head screws with washers into the
location holes with the other hand. Give the
screws one turn to ensure the glass is secure.
5. Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive
screwdriver before closing the oven door.
DO NOT attempt to use the oven without the
glass being in place.
TO CLEAN THE INNER GLASS DOOR
The inner glass door is not removable. Clean using
hot soapy water or Hob Brite and a soft cloth. DO
NOT use abrasives as they may damage the glass or
seal.
CLEANING THE GRILL / TOP OVEN
COMPARTMENT
The grill / top oven compartment base, sides and
back panel can be cleaned using oven cleaners or
aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the
manufacturers instructions are followed and that all
parts are well rinsed afterwards. Aerosol cleaners
must not come into contact with the grill element as
this may cause damage.
41
Page 42
CLEANING THE TOP OVEN ROOF
The grill element is hinged to make cleaning the oven
roof easier.
Switch off the appliance from the
electricity supply before cleaning and
ensure the oven is cold.
1. Remove the wirework side runners. See below.
2. Undo the two screws which hold the grill element
in place.
3. Gently pull the element downwards to allow
access to the oven roof. Do not force the element
downwards.
4. Clean the top of the oven with Cif cream cleaner
and a sponge scourer. If heavily soiled, aerosol
oven cleaners may be used following the
instructions given above for cleaning the grill / top
oven compartment.
5. Gently push the grill element back into place.
6. Fit the screws to hold the element in place and
tighten firmly.
7. Replace the wirework side runners.
Ensure the screws are firmly in place after
cleaning.
CARE OF THE STAYCLEAN SURFACES
The main oven top, sides and back panel are coated
with a special Stayclean coating. They should not be
cleaned manually.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean
surfaces and must not come into contact with
elements or the door seal, as this may cause
damage.
During normal use the Stayclean coating will become
splashed with fats and food residues. By running the
oven without food, the Stayclean surfaces burn off
any soilage. Regular use of the oven cleaning cycle
will help to keep the panels in good condition.
THE MAIN OVEN CLEANING CYCLE
1. Remove oven shelves and bakeware from
oven.
2. Push out and turn the Selector to Fan oven
function. ( )
3. Push out and turn the main oven
temperature control to 220°C and allow the
oven to run for an hour or so.
THINGS TO NOTE
· The main oven neon will illuminate.
· The main oven indicator neon will turn on and off
during use.
· The Cooling Fan for the controls will operate after
a short time. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. See
page 8 for more details on the operation of the
cooling fan.
42
Page 43
HINTS AND TIPS
· Slight discolouration and polishing of the
Stayclean surfaces may occur in time, but this
will not affect their self cleaning properties.
· A good time to use the oven cleaning cycle is
after the weekly roast.
If you do a lot of roasting and very little baking
you should follow the cleaning cycle every week.
If you roast very little you will only need to follow
the cleaning cycle every 2 - 3 weeks.
· Follow the recommendations below to keep
soilage to a minimum.
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE.
· Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher
temperatures during roasting will increase
soilage. Try cooking at lower temperature for an
increased length of time, you will save energy
and often the joint is more tender.
· Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat
before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during
roasting will increase splashing and soilage.
· It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat tin
when roasting. The water and the fat juices from
the joint create excessive splattering during
cooking – even at normal temperatures, as well
as causing condensation.
· Covering joints during cooking will also prevent
splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing
the covering for the last 20 - 30 minutes will allow
extra browning if required. Some large joints and
turkeys especially benefit by this method of
cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before
the outside is over-browned.
43
Page 44
TO REMOVE THE WIREWORK RUNNERS
The wirework runners in the grill and oven cavities
can be removed for cleaning.
1. Remove all shelves and furniture from the grill
and oven compartments.
2. Hold the wirework at the bottom, unclip from the
cavity side and gently pull towards the centre of
the grill or oven compartment.
3. Unhook the runner at the top and remove from
the cavity.
4. To replace, hook the wirework runner back into
the grill/oven sides.
Ensure that the wirework runners are
firmly in place before refitting the oven
shelves.
CLEANING THE SHELVES, WIREWORK
RUNNERS AND GRILL/OVEN FURNITURE
SIDE PANEL
CAVITY CENTRE
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle, can
be washed in the dishwasher.
The meat tin, grill pan, grill pan grid, oven shelves
and wirework runners may be cleaned using a soap
impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot
soapy water will make cleaning easier.
