BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE 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, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces. RATING PLATE This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door.
ELECTRONIC TIMER KEY A COOK TIME A B END TIME C B D C COUNTDOWN D TIME E DECREASE CONTROL E F SELECTOR CONTROL G INCREASE CONTROL NOTE: The time of day must be set before the main oven will operate manually. 1. HOW TO SET THE TIME OF DAY Fig.1 The oven has a 24 hour clock. When the electricity supply is first switched ON, the display will show 12.00 and the 'Time' ( ) indicator neon will flash as Fig. 1.
TO CANCEL THE COUNTDOWN If you change your mind and want to cancel the 'Countdown', press the Selector Control button until the 'Countdown' indicator neon ( ) flashes and then the decrease control ( - ) until 0.00 shows in the display as Fig. 5. The 'Countdown' indicator neon ( ) will continue to flash for a few seconds and then return to the time of day. Fig.5 3. SETTING THE OVEN TIMER CONTROL The main oven only can be automatically timed.
B) TO SET THE TIMER TO SWITCH OFF ONLY i) Ensure the electricity supply is switched ON and that the correct time of day is displayed, e.g. 10.00am as Fig. 9. ii) Place food in the oven. iii) To set the length of cooking time, press the Selector Control button until the 'Cook Time' ( ) indicator neon is illuminated. Press the increase control ( + ) until the required length of cooking time is displayed, e.g. 2 hrs 15 mins as Fig. 10. Depress the decrease control ( - ) if necessary. iv) Release the buttons.
THE DUAL GRILL CAUTION – Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away. The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used, or for economy purposes, the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food. USING THE DUAL GRILL • • • • To operate the grill turn the top oven/grill function selector to full grill. Turn the top oven/grill function selector to centre section only.
HINTS AND TIPS • 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. • 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.
THE TOP OVEN The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche. The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the top oven when you want to warm plates. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.
HINTS AND TIPS • Arrange the shelf in the required position before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards. • There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”) between the top of the food and the 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.
THE MAIN 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 find you 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.
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. • When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time.
MAIN OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by a further 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.

DEFROST FEATURE This main oven function defrosts most foods faster than some conventional methods. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc. USING DEFROST FEATURE • Turn the main oven temperature control to the defrost setting. THINGS TO NOTE • • The oven fan and internal oven light will come on. The cooling fan does not operate.
CARE AND CLEANING Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down before switching off at 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 and scourers should also be avoided as damage will occur.
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVENS The grill/top oven and main oven compartments are coated with a special Stayclean coating. They should not be cleaned manually. The vitreous enamel main oven base and grill compartment base can be cleaned using normal 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 elements, the door seal, or any painted finishes as this may cause damage.
CLEANING THE DOOR(S) To prevent damaging or weakening 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 The outer oven door glass panels are removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER DOOR GLASS 1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the two cross head screws on the top of the oven door. 2.
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 grill door. 4.
REPLACING AN OVEN LIGHT BULB (MAIN OVEN) The type of bulb required is a 300°C 25 watt small Edison Screw. Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply before replacing the bulb. 1. Make sure the appliance is cool before replacing the bulb. 2. Open the oven door and remove the shelves and wirework runners. 3. Pull the glass bulb cover towards you and then pull it off. If necessary, use a screwdriver to carefully lever off the cover, taking care not to damage the oven cavity. 4.
