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.
Full 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 the highest shelves (11/12). 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.

Cleaning
NOTE: Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the oven is cool.
The appliance should be disconnected from the power outlet or turned off at your isolation
switch before commencing any cleaning process.
Cleaning the oven exterior
Before starting to clean your oven, be sure that all control buttons are off and your appliance has cooled off.
Unplug the appliance.
Do not use cleaning materials containing particles that might scratch the enamelled and painted parts of
your oven. Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners, which do not contain particles. As these cleaners may
damage the surfaces, do not use caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, rough wire wool or hard tools.
In the event of any excess liquids spilling over your oven surface during cleaning, clean up immediately so
as to prevent possible damage to the enamel or metal surface. Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the
oven.
Cleaning the interior of the oven
Make sure to unplug the oven before starting to clean it. You will obtain best results if you clean the oven
interior while the oven is slightly warm (the oven should not be operating). Wipe your oven with a soft piece
of cloth (e.g. dish cloth) dampened with warm soapy water after each use, rinse cloth in warm water then
wipe oven again and then finish by wiping with a dry cloth. For a complete cleaning process, use dry and
powder type oven cleaners, following the oven cleaning product’s instructions.
Troubleshooting
If the oven does not operate:
•
The oven may be unplugged from the power source or switched off at the power source.
•

The cooling fan has activated to cool down the control; this is normal and may stay on for some
time.
