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.
The appliance comes with 2 designated positions for the telescopic runners to be attached. Refer to the
image below:
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.

Operating Instructions
Oven Functions
Conventional Cooking Function
This function, Conventional Cooking, allows heat to radiate evenly from the lower and upper
elements into the oven ensuring even cooking of both sides of the food. Adjust the function
control so it indicates the Conventional Cooking 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 food in
a suitable container, then place into oven and cook for the recommended time. This function is
preferred for making cakes (cupcakes, other cakes and sponges), biscuits, pastry, baked pasta
(e.g. lasagne), casseroles and moist dishes, roasts and oven chips.
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 on a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Conventional with Fan Assist Function
This is the function where the air coming from the lower and upper heating elements is circulated
into the oven by the fan motor and blade
Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Conventional with Fan Assist Function symbol
and adjust the oven timer to the recommended time for cooking. Adjust the thermostat control
knob to the temperature required on the cooking table for the Conventional with Fan Assist
Function and preheat oven for 10 minutes. Based on the conventional cooking function, this
combination of features increases the effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating
elements through forced air circulation of the heat throughout the oven. This helps prevent food
from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food. Food baked on this
function such as pastry often brown faster than on convection function alone.
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 on a safe heatproof surface.
As the oven will be hot, work with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Grill Function
This function is used for grilling. Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Mid-Grill
function symbol and adjust the oven timer to the recommended time for cooking. Set the oven’s
thermostat control knob to the required temperature. After a preheating period of 10 minutes, put
your food into the oven. For grilling, put the food on the grill rack and sit into the tray. Place the
tray on one of the highest shelves. Placing the rack within the oven tray provided will ensure that
any marinade, fat or oil dropping from the food will be collected. When grilling, the oven door
must be closed. On this function, the middle heating elements/coils of the grill operate.
This setting is ideal for toasting bread, cheese melts and melting cheese topped dishes or
finishing off a dish to lightly brown on the surface. Also used for herb and garlic bread.
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.

you are cooking things that need to be
turned. If you open the door often, the
interior temperature will be lower and this
may affect the results of your cooking.
The timer buttons cannot be
pressed properly.
There is foreign matter caught
between the timer buttons.
Touch model: there is moisture
on the control panel.
The key lock function is set.
Remove the foreign matter and try again.
Remove the moisture and try again.
Check whether the key lock function is
set.
The oven fan (if available) is
noisy.
Oven shelves are vibrating.
Check that the oven is level.
Check that the shelves and any bake ware
are not vibrating or in contact with the
oven back panel.
The cooling fan continues to
operate after the oven is
switched off.
Electronically-controlled oven fan
automatically runs for a certain
amount of time to cool the oven.
The fan switches off automatically when
the electronic components have cooled
sufficiently.
The oven has switched itself off.
Electronically-controlled ovens
switch off automatically if no
function is in operation.
The oven will switch itself off automatically
to save energy if no other action is taken
within a certain time frame after switching
it on or after the end of a cooking
programme.
If the door is opened during a
fan-assisted function, the internal
fan will stop.
Electronically-controlled ovens
with a door switch will stop
cooking if the oven door is
opened.
It is a normal operation of the appliance,
