Before the First Use of the Cooker

Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without
food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be
emitted. This is quite normal.

1. Set the electronic programmer to manual

function.

2. Switch the oven function control knob to

conventional cooking 

.

3. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.

4. Open a window for ventilation.

5. Allow the oven to run empty for

approximately 45 minutes.

6. Half way through, reset the oven

function control to fan cooking 

.

This procedure should be repeated with the grill 
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Using the ceramic hob for the first
time

The cooking surface should be cleaned before use to
remove any traces of the production process.

Wipe the ceramic surface and frame with a
damp cloth using warm water to which a little
washing up liquid has been added, and wipe
dry.

Heating up for the first time

To check the cooking zones, briefly switch
each one on.

Using the Oven

Always cook with the oven door closed.

Stand clear when opening the drop
down oven door. Do not allow it to fall
open - support the door using the door
handle, until it is fully open.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is
supplied with two shelves.

The shelf positions are counted from the
bottom of the oven as shown in the
diagram.

It is important that these shelves are
correctly positioned as shown in the
diagram.

Do not place cookware directly on the
oven base.
