Controls Oven Function Control Knob 0 The oven is off. Oven Light - The oven light will be on without any cooking function. Defrost Setting - This setting is intended to assist in thawing of frozen food. Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the OFF position. Fan Cooking - This allows you to roast or roast and bake simoultaneously using any shelf, without flavour transference. Grill - The heat comes from the top element only.
Safety Thermostat To prevent dangerous overheating (through incorrect use of the appliance or defective components), the oven is fitted with a safety thermostat, which interrupts the power supply. The oven switches back on again automatically, when the temperature drops.
Using the Oven Always cook with the oven door closed. Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the door using the door handle, until it is fully open. The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with two shelves. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.
Hints and tips for using the Oven Fan Cooking Defrosting The food is cooked by means of preheated air force blown evenly round the inside of the oven by a fan set on the rear wall of the oven itself. Heat thus reaches all parts of the oven evenly and fast and this means that you can simultaneously cook different types of foods positioned on the various oven shelves.
For Cooking Meat and Fish Meat cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kg to prevent it from becoming too dry during cooking. Very tender red meat to be cooked rare, i.e. well cooked on the outside but extremely juicy inside, requires high-temperature cooking (200°C-250°C). White meat, poultry and fish instead require low-temperature cooking (150°C-175°C). The ingredients for the accompanying sauce or gravy should be put in the baking pan at the very beginning only when cooking times are short.
Cooking Chart - Fan Cooking The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures to suit individual preferences and requirements. Cooking times in the tables do not include pre-heating. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) will then be necessary before any cooking. NOTE: Shelf positions are counted from bottom of the oven.
Grilling Chart Cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat and not on its weight. The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures to suit individual preferences and requirements. Cooking times in the tables do not include pre-heating. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) will then be necessary before any cooking. Grilling must be carried out with the oven door closed.
Cleaning the Oven Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to cool the cooker down before switching off at the electricity supply. Never use steam or steam machines to clean the appliance. 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. Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaning the Oven Door Before cleaning the oven door, we recommend you to remove it from the oven. Proceed as follows: 1.open the oven door completely; 2.find the hinges linking the door to the oven (Fig. A); 3.unlock and turn the small levers located on the two hinges (Fig. B); 4.handle the door by its left- and right-hand sides, then slowly turn it towards the oven until it is halfclosed (Fig. C); 5.gently pull the oven door off its site (Fig. C); 6.
