Important:
Never put items directly
on the base of the oven or cover the
oven base with foil, as this may cause
the element to overheat. Always
position the items on the shelf.
Automatic operation
(main oven only)
See ‘Programmer / Clock’ section.
Refer to the Cooking Guide for
instructions for Automatic Cooking.
Oven lights
To switch on the oven lights, press the
oven light switch at the left-hand side
of the fascia.
Preheating
When using the main oven, always
use the fan oven setting for preheating
to save time and electricity. After the
oven has been preheated on the fan
oven setting, turn the selector control
knob to the oven setting you require.
The ovens must be preheated when
cooking frozen or chilled food, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés and whisked
sponges, (otherwise preheating is not
necessary when cooking in the main
oven with the fan oven function, as a
fan oven warms up quickly).
Preheat the oven until the indicator
neon switches off for the first time;
this will take between 5 - 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature selected.
