Automatic switch off Should you forget to switch the oven off after a programme, or if the "ON" button is pressed accidentally, the oven will switch off automatically. In the case of manual functioning, the programmer will switch the oven off automatically if no other button is activated after a certain time. This time varies according to the temperature setting of the oven, and ranges from a minimum of 2 hours for temperatures above 230°C, up to 8 hours for those below 120°C.
Meat Probe (Main Oven only) The meat probe is a feature which will control the cooking of meat by informing you of the exact temperature at the centre of the meat. It is not necessary to weigh the meat, the sensor determines the cooking time. The cooking time will be influenced by the cooking temperature. 1 2 The probe consists of a skewer like sensor at one end of a heat resistant cable, and a plug at the other end. Only use the meat probe supplied with the oven or an original spare part.
Oven Functions and Programming Features The following table lists the programming features available for each cooking function.
Before the First Use Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven. Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal. ☞ 1. Switch on the oven by pressing the "ON" push button. 2. Select the Fan Oven Function by pressing the Oven Function Control button. 3. Set the temperature to 250°C by means of the "Increase" button. 4. Open a window for ventilation. 5.
i Hints and Tips Condensation and steam When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents 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 a fault with the oven.
The Fan Oven (Main Oven only) The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven. The advantages of cooking with this function are: ✓ Faster Preheating As 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.
i 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.
The Conventional Oven (Main and Lower Ovens) When using this setting, heat comes from both the top and bottom elements. This allows you to cook in a single level and is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation.
Cooking Chart - Fan and Conventional Oven The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10 °C to suit individual preferences and requirements. NOTE: Shelf positions are counted from bottom of the oven and are intended for the Main Oven only. When using the Lower Oven, please note that temperature and shelf positions must be adjusted according to type of food, its thickness and its weight.
Defrosting (Main Oven only) The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of defrosting. 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. ☞ How to Use Defrosting 1. Switch the oven ON 2.
Grilling (Main and Lower ovens) Grilling must be carried out with the oven door closed. The grill pan handles must be removed from the pan. ☞ How to Use the Grill 1. Switch the oven ON and select the oven cavity 2. Press the Cooking Function Control Button until appears on the display. GRILLING FUNCTION SYMBOL TEMPERATURE SELECTION 50°C - 250°C PRE-SET TEMPERATURE: 250°C 3. If necessary, press the "Increase" or the "Decrease" buttons to adjust the temperature setting. 4.
☞ How to Use the Inner Grill Element The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill element for cooking small quantities, it can help to save energy. 1. Switch the oven ON and select the oven cavity. 2. Press the Cooking Function Control Button until INNER GRILL ELEMENT SYMBOL TEMPERATURE SELECTION 50°C - 250°C PRE-SET TEMPERATURE: 250°C appears on the display. 3.
i Hints and Tips Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with little oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking. If thermally grilling on more than one level, it may be necessary to interchange the food on the shelves during cooking. Quantity Gr. Pieces A general guide to cooking times is given below but these times may vary slightly depending on the thickness and quantity of food being cooked.
Pizza Oven (Main Oven only) The bottom element provides direct heat to the base of pizzas, quiches or pies, while the fan ensure air is circulated to cook the pizza toppings or pie fillings. To obtain the best results use the lower shelf levels. 1. Switch the oven ON. 2. Press the Cooking Function Control Button until PIZZA OVEN FUNCTION SYMBOL TEMPERATURE SELECTION: 50°C - 250°C PRE-SET TEMPERATURE: 220°C appears on the display. 3.
Cleaning the Oven Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to cool the oven down before switching off at the electricity supply. The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan. 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.
Oven Cavity The enamelled base of the oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner. i DO NOT attempt to clean catalytic liners Oven Shelves and Shelf Supports To clean the oven shelves and the shelf supports, soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad.
Care of catalytic liners (Main Oven only) Catalytic liners destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C. To aid this process it is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per week, without food, to ensure continued good performance from the Catalytic liners. i Hints and Tips • Manual cleaning of the Catalytic liner is not recommended. Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners and any other abrasives are used.
Cleaning the hinged grill This model has been fitted with a hinged grill element to enable you to clean the roof of the oven easily. Before proceeding ensure the oven is cool and is isolated from the electricity supply. ☞ 1) Undo the screw which holds the grill in place (see diagram). FO 0781 2) Then gently pull the grill downward to allow access to the oven roof (see diagram). 3) Clean the oven roof with a suitable cleaner and wipe dry before replacing the hinged grill element.
