Overheat Function
This function identifies when the temperature of the pan rises
rapidly and works to maintain a safe level of pan temperature.
It should not interfere with normal cooking.
Cookware with bases that become distorted
(Fig. 2.2)
when
heated may interfere with the operation of the Overheat
Function. This may result in damage to your cookware or
Induction Glass Cooktop.
Please remember not to leave the cooktop
unattended. Care should be taken to not allow your
cookware to boil dry. Damage to your cookware and
Induction Glass Cooktop may result.
Please read and follow the manufacturers’ instructions
carefully before using cookware on your induction cooktop.
The ovens
References to ‘left-hand’ and ‘right-hand’ ovens apply as
viewed from the front of the appliance.
The left-hand oven is a multi-function oven, while the right-
hand oven is a fan oven.
IMPORTANT:
Before using the ovens for the first time, to
dispel manufacturing odors, turn the oven to 200 °C (395 °F)
in Convection Assisted mode and run for one hour. To clear
the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside
air, by opening windows or turning on your ventilation hood.
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken
to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.
Multi-function Ovens
Multi-function ovens have an oven fan and oven fan element,
as well as two extra heating elements (
Fig. 2.10
). One
element is in the top of the oven and the second is under the
oven base. Take care to avoid touching the top element and
element deflector when placing or removing items from the
oven.
The multi-function oven has 3 main cooking functions:
fan
,
fan assisted
and
conventional
cooking. These functions
should be used to complete most of your cooking needs.
The
browning element
and
base heat
can be used in the
latter part of the cooking process to fine tune the results to
your particular requirements.
Use
fanned broiling
for all your broiling needs and
defrost
to safely thaw small items of frozen food.
Table 2.4
gives a summary of the multi-function modes. The
multi-function oven has many varied uses. We suggest you
keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar with
each function. Remember, not all functions will be suitable
for all food types.
