Caution:
Accessible parts may
be hot when the oven is used,
young children should be kept
away.
The top oven is a conventional electric
oven.
To switch on the top oven
Turn the top oven control knob clock-
wise to the desired temperature.
Note:
The red thermostat indicator will
come on until the selected temperature
is reached and then go off. It will turn
on and off periodically as the
thermostat operates to maintain the
selected temperature.
To switch off,
return the control to the
“
l
” off position.
Top oven light
The top oven light will come on when
the top oven is switched on.
Preheating
We recommend preheating the oven
for frozen or chilled food and also for
soufflés, batter mixtures and yeast
mixtures.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
light switches off for the first time, this
will take up to 20 minutes depending
of the temperature selected.
Notes:
C a u t i o n :
The top element gets
extremely hot when in use, so take
extra care to avoid touching it.
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 items on the shelf.
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven. When opening the oven door,
care should be taken to avoid any p o s-
sible contact with potentially hot air,
since this may cause discomfort to people
with sensitive skin. We recommend
that you hold the underneath of the
oven door handle.
