open during this process.
oIt is advisable for you not to remain in the room whilst the
burning off process is taking place.

There are eight cooking functions available on your appliance:
OVEN LIGHT: Separate light control which allows the light to be
switched on, even when the oven is switched off.
DEFROST MODE: The fan runs without heat to reduce the
defrosting time of frozen foods. The time required to defrost the
food will depend on the room temperature, the quantity and t
of food. Always check food packaging for the defrosting
instructions.
ype
CONVENTIONAL OVEN (top and lower element): This
method of cooking provides traditional cooking, with heat from
the top and lower elements. This function is suitable for roasting
and baking on one shelf only.
FAN OVEN: This method of cooking uses the circular element
while the heat is distributed by the fan. This results in a faster
and more economical cooking process. The fan oven allows food
to be cooked simultaneously on different shelves, preventing the
transmission of smells and tastes from one dish onto another.
HALF GRILL: This method of cooking utilises the inner part only
of the top element, which directs heat downwards onto the food.
This function is suitable for grilling small portions of bacon, toast
and meat etc. The thermostat control knob must be turned to its
maximum setting.
FULL GRILL: This method of cooking utilises the inner and outer
parts of the top element, which directs heat downwards onto the
food. This function is suitable for grilling medium or large
portions of sausages, bacon, steaks, fish etc. Ideally the
thermostat control knob should be set to 200°C
FAN AND GRILL: This method of cooking utilises the top
element in conjunction with the fan, which helps to provide a
quick circulation of heat. This function is suitable where quick
browning is required and “sealing” the juices in, such as steaks,
hamburgers, some vegetables etc.
FAN AND LOWER ELEMENT: This method of cooking utilises
the bottom element in conjunction with the fan, which helps to
circulate the heat. This function is suitable for sterilising and
preserving jars.
19

Thermostat control knob (main oven)
The oven thermostat control knob should be turned
clockwise and it sets the required temperature of
the oven. It is possible to regulate the temperature
within a range of 60 - 250°C.
Selecting an oven function and temperature (secondary oven)
If you turn the control knob clockwise, it will
automatically select a conventional oven function
and you can regulate the temperature between 60 -
250°C.
To use one of the other functions, you should turn the dial past the
max. setting and select the following functions.
OVEN LIGHT: Separate light control which allows the light to
be switched on, even when the oven is switched off.
UPPER ELEMENT ONLY: This method of cooking uses the outer
part of the top element to direct gentle heat downwards onto
the food. For gentle cooking, browning or keeping cooked dishes
warm.
LOWER ELEMENT ONLY: This method of cooking uses the
lower element to direct heat upwards to the food. For slow-
cooking recipes or for warming up meals.
GRILL ELEMENT ONLY: This method of cooking utilises the top
element, which directs heat downwards onto the food. This
function is suitable for grilling small portions of bacon, toast and
meat etc.
Oven operating light
This light will come on to indicate that the oven’s heating elements are
in operation. The light will turn off when the temperature set on the
thermostat control knob has been reached. It will cycle on and off
throughout the cooking time.
You should not place food inside the cavity, until the correct
cooking temperature has been reached.
