RATING PLATE
This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the cavity
door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found
on the back or top of some models (where
applicable).
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance
as this may invalidate the guarantee.
GENERAL NOTES ON USING THE
OVENS
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 –
15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from
their surfaces.
The procedure should be repeated with the grill for
approximately 5 –10 minutes.
During this period an odour may be emitted, it is
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of
the steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the appliance when opening the oven door to
allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface
on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
COOKWARE
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven.
Do not
use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm
(12” x 14”) as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill
is switched on and after a short time when either of
the ovens are in use. It runs on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. During
the initial period the cooling fan may turn ON and
OFF, this is quite normal.
Do not
switch off the appliance at its power point
before the cooling fan has cooled the appliance
down.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens are switched
ON. The neons also indicate when the set
temperature has been reached.
They will turn on and off during use to show that the
temperature is being maintained.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and reset following the
instructions for the required setting.
