WHEN THE OVEN IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the oven has been installed, it is important to
remove the protective materials which were put on in
the factory.

Turn knob B on the timer until the manual function

appears in the dial. Switch the oven control knob

to fan ducted cooking and then set the
thermostat control knob to MAX and leave it to run,

empty, for 30 minutes to remove any unpleasant
new smells.
During this period, an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore, advisable to open a window
for ventilation.

REMEMBER: The timer must be set to MANUAL
before the oven can be operated.
This must be done whenever the cooker is
switched off at the wall or when there is a power
failure.
If the oven indicator neons do not glow when the
controls are switched on, it is most likely that the
timer is set for automatic cooking.

Rating Plate

The model number of your oven can be found on the
rating plate on the lower front frame of the oven upon
opening the door.
The oven must be protected by a suitably rated fuse
or circuit breaker. The rating of the oven is given on
the rating plate.

The trivet

When roasting do 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.

N.B. The meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate as this may cause the enamel to crack.

The cooling fan for the controls

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill
is switched on and after a short time when the oven
is in use, and switches off when cooking is
completed.

During the initial period the cooling fan may cycle ON
and OFF, this is quite normal.

It may run on after the oven or grill is switched off to
keep the controls cool.

Always allow the cooling fan to cool the oven down
before switching off the wall prior to carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance work.

NOTE

The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long
the oven or grill has 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.

About condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle does. The oven is vented to
allow some of this steam to escape. However, always
stand back from the oven when opening the oven
door 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the oven.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven, or placed on the oven base.

Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) 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.

Control panel indicator neon

This light indicates whether the oven or grill is
switched ON. In the case of the oven, the neon also
indicates when the set temperature has been
reached. It will cycle on, and off during use to show
that the temperature is being maintained.

If the neon do not operate as the instructions indicate
the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all
controls to zero and reset following the instructions
for the required setting.

When the oven is set for automatic cooking the neon
should remain unlit during OFF periods.

USING THE FAN OVEN

The Fan Oven

The air inside the oven is heated by the element
around the fan situated behind the back panel. The
fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the
air which is circulated into the oven via the top, base
and sides of the back panel. The advantages of
cooking with this function are:

Faster Preheating

Because the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it
is not usually necessary to preheat the oven
although you may find that you need to allow an
extra 5-7 minutes on cooking times. For recipes
which require higher temperatures, best results are
achieved if the oven is preheated first, e.g. bread,
pastries, scones, souffles, etc.

Lower Temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the charts
or remember to reduce temperatures by about 20­25°C for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.

Even Heating for Baking

The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner
positions. This means that batches of the same food
can be cooked in the oven at the same time.
However, the top shelf may brown slightly quicker
that the lower one.
This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours
between dishes (see Fig. 7).

The oven is supplied with two anti-tip shelves.

HINTS AND TIPS

Runner positions are not critical, but make sure the
shelves are evenly spread.

When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven,
place dishes centrally on the shelves rather than
several dishes on one shelf.

When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly
longer cooking time.

A shelf may be placed on the floor of the oven. Place
dishes on a shelf in this position rather than on the
oven base, to allow air circulation around the food.

When the oven is full of the same food, e.g. equal
trays of small cakes or equal size victoria sandwich
cakes, then they will be cooked in the same time and
removed from the oven together. When different
sizes of trays or types of food, e.g. biscuits and
cakes are cooked, they will not necessarily be ready
together.

The fan oven can be used to heat foods through
without thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies,
sausage rolls, and other small pastry items. Use a
temperature of 190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes
(depending on the quantity of food in the oven).

The use of too high temperatures can cause uneven
browning. Check with the recommendations for oven
temperatures given in the cooking charts, but be
prepared to adjust the temperature by 10°C if
necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by
about 20-25°C for your own conventional recipes.

IMPORTANT: The anti-tip oven shelves must be
positoned as shown in Fig. 6.

Only experience will enable you to determine the
proper settings for your personal cooking needs. The
temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be
necessary to increase or decrease the temperature
to suit your individual requirements.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat
to the food inside them:
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and
bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath
browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,
aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking
and underneath browning.

Defrosting

The defrosting function allows you to defrost frozen
foods. The oven fan operates without heat and
circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the
oven. This increases the rate at which defrosting
takes place.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate food
which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled
gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast
products.

HINTS AND TIPS

• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film
to prevent drying out during defrosting.

• Small or thin pieces of fish fillet or peeled prawns,
mince, liver and thin chops will defrost in 1-2
hours. Ensure that they are cooked or refrigerated
immediately after defrosting to maintain good food
hygiene.

• Place the food to be defrosted in a single layer and
turn over half way through the defrosting process,
where possible.

• Joints of meat or poultry MUST BE THAWED
THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING. A 1.5 kg/3lb
oven-ready chicken will thaw in approximately 5
hours. The giblets must be removed as soon as
possible during the thawing process.

• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2kg/4lb in
weight are suitable for defrosting in this way.
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.

• Take care to follow the basic rules for hygiene
when handling fresh, frozen, raw and cooked foods.

HINTS AND TIPS

• Place the frozen food 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.

• 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.

GRILLING

Important
All grilling must be carried out with the oven door
closed and the grill pan handle removed from the
pan.

COOKING GUIDE

Cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat
and not on its weight.

- Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill
pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift the food
out of the fats and juices. Food such as fish, liver and
kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if
preferred

- 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

- 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

- When toasting bread, we suggest that the top
runner position is used with the grid in its 'high'
position

- Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes
before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat
setting and the shelf as necessary, during cooking

NOTE:
For safety in use, the grill element is controlled
by the thermostat. During cooking, the grill
cycles on and off to prevent overheating.

HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD

Care must be taken when handling foods in the
home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene
to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross
contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking,
cooling, defrosting and freezing foods:

1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good
quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable
source and buy the 'freshest' looking package ­avoid shopworn labels or produce covered in dust.

2. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you
cannot store them straight away. The use of an
insulated container when shopping is advisable.

3. Buy and consume foods prior to the 'Sell by' or
'Best Before' date.

4. When you arrive home, place perishable foods in
the refrigerator or freezer immediately.
Ensure they are well covered to prevent them
drying out and to prevent any possible cross
contamination with bacteria from raw to cooked
foods.

10. Cook meat thoroughly - use a meat thermometer
if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check
that the centre temperature has reached the
required temperature (see table below).

MEAT TEMPERATURES

Beef Rare - 60°C

Medium - 70°C
Well Done - 80°C

Pork Well Done - 80°C

Lamb Medium - 70°C

Well Done - 80°C

11. If not eaten straightaway after cooking, food
should be cooled as quickly as possible (within
one hour) and then refrigerated or frozen as
required. (Do not put hot food into a Refrigerator
or Freezer).

5. Follow the cooking instructions on packets of
prepacked and cook chill foods, but be prepared to
adjust cooking time and temperatures to suit your
particular oven. For example, the fan oven
generally requires 20-25°C lower temperature than
conventional ovens.

6. Always ensure that cook chill foods are thoroughly
re-heated until they are piping hot throughout.

7. It is preferable to defrost frozen foods slowly in the
refrigerator. Alternatively, a microwave cooker or
the defrost function on your oven may be used.

8. Always cook defrosted foods immediately after
thawing. Thawed food should never be refrozen.

9. Joints of meat and poultry should be thoroughly
defrosted before cooking.

12. In the kitchen keep work tops, chopping boards
and utensils clean with hot soapy water between
preparation stages. Ideally, keep one chopping
board for raw meat and another for other foods.
Keep your dish cloths and tea towels clean.

16

CLEANING THE OVEN

Before cleaning always allow the cooling
fan to cool the oven down before

switching off at the electricity supply
Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your oven,
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.

Glass Panel

This should be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in
warm soapy water. Do not use abrasive scourers or
steel wool.

Oven Shelves and shelf supports

To clean the oven shelves, and shelf supports soak
in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks
with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well
and dry with a soft cloth.
The shelf supports can be removed for easy cleaning
(see Fig. 8). Please ensure the retaining nuts are

Oven Cavity

The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm. It is advisable to wipe the oven
over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water
after each use. However, from time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary oven cleaner.

place to avoid the grill falling down during
operation.

WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG

If the oven does not come on:

* Check the oven is in manual operation
* Check that it is plugged in properly
* Check that the socket switch and/or the switch

from the mains supply to the oven are ON

* Replace the fuse in the plug, if required, with

another of the same rating and check that this plug
has been wired up correctly

* Check that the socket, when present, is receiving

power - by plugging in an appliance you know to

be working
* Check that the fuse in the fuse box is intact
In after all these checks, the oven still does not work,

contact your local Zanussi Service Centre quoting
your model and serial number.

Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof
of purchase for any inguarantee service calls.

In-guarantee customers should ensure that the
above checks have been made as the engineer
will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical
or electrical breakdown.
