Operating Instructions
During heated oven functions a cooling fan in the top of the oven will operate in order to cool down the oven
door and kitchen cabinet as well as reducing condensation in the oven. There will then be a slight release of
warm air from the top of the closed oven door. This is not a leak in heat from the oven cavity.
Oven Functions
Defrost Function
You can start the defrost operation by putting the frozen food into oven and bringing the function
control knob to the indicated mark. This function will not cook/bake the food; it only helps to
defrost it within a short time.
Put the food to be defrosted on the wire rack that you will place on the middle rack support from
the bottom (Figure 13). To collect the water that accumulates due to the melting ice, insert an
oven tray onto a lower rack. This function is perfect for finishing off the defrost process for frozen
food that has been in the refrigerator from the evening before and may not be completely thawed
out.
Fan Forced Function
This Fan Forced function uses the turbo heater (located in the back of the oven) to evenly
disperse the heat in the oven. This function is suitable for cooking multiple dishes on various
oven shelves. Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Fan Forced function symbol.
Adjust the thermostat control knob of your oven to a temperature recommended on the cooking
table for the cooking operation you wish to perform.
Preheating of the oven for about 10 minutes is recommended. Place the food in a suitable
container, then place into oven and cook for the required time.
If you are going to cook using two trays at the same time, while adjusting the cooking
temperature, select the temperature that is the lowest among the levels suitable for your food of
choice, as shown on the table.
Cooking with two trays requires additional cooking time compared to cooking with one tray.
Usually, the food on each tray does not finish at the same time so you may need to take the tray
of cooked food out of the oven, and continue the cooking operation for the remaining tray.
After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature control knobs and cancel the timer
program if in use. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place it in a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work near with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
