The Ovens
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should
be taken to avoid touching the heating elements
inside the ovens.
Before using for the first time, to dispel
manufacturing odours turn the ovens to 240°C and
run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the
room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening
windows for example.
The clock must be set to the time of day before the
Multifunction ovens will work. See ‘The Clock’ section
for instructions on setting the time of day.
The Ovens
Both ovens are Multi-function ovens. As well as the
oven fan and fan element, they are fitted with two extra
heating elements, one visible in the top of the oven
and the second under the oven base. Take care to avoid
touching the top element and element deflector when
placing or removing items from the oven. For more
detail on these ovens see the section ‘Multi-function
oven’.
The Multi-function ovens have two controls, a function
selector and a temperature setting knob.
Turn the function selector control to a cooking function.
This is the fan oven setting.
Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature
you need.
The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has
reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle
on and off during cooking.
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to
the back of the oven.
Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed
level centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all
trays and containers away from the sides of the
oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size
for a baking tray is 330mm by 290mm.
Cooking high moisture content foods can create a
‘steam burst’, when the oven door is opened. When
opening the oven stand well back and allow any
steam to disperse.
When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open for
longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get
very hot.
• Always leave a ‘fingers width’ between dishes on
the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate
freely around them.
• The Cook & Clean oven liners (see Cleaning your
cooker) work better when fat splashes are avoided.
Cover meat when cooking.
