DO NOT place flammable materials in
the oven.
Faults
Do not continue to use this appliance if
it appears to be faulty.
After Use
Switch the oven controls off.
Always switch off at the isolating switch
before cleaning the appliance, or attemp-
ting any maintenance task, or when not
in use for long periods (when on holiday).
CAPLE Service
To ensure the continued safe and effi-
cient operation of this appliance, we
recommend that any servicing or repairs
are carried out only by an authorised
CAPLE SERVICE ENGINEER.
Safety Reminders
Instruction Book
This appliance should only be used for
it’s intended purpose as described in
these instructions.
Ensure that you fully understand these
instructions before operating this
appliance.
Space Requirements
Ensure that the specified ventilation
space around the appliance is not
obstructed.
Food Splashes
Always wipe clean the oven after use.
Food splashes can carry on cooking next
time and may become a fire hazard.
Hot Surfaces
It is important to remember that the sur-
faces of cooking appliances get hot
during use and retain the heat for some
time after switching off.
It is therefore advisable to keep small
children away from the appliance.
The Grill and Top oven
element
are exposed, so take great care when
placing food in the oven or removing it.
Use the grill pan handles or gloves.

This Installation should be carried out by
a competent electrician in accordance
with current l.E.E.
Regulations.
This CAPLE product must be connected
to an electricity supply at the voltage
shown on the rating plate. Connection
must be made via a double pole isolating
switch with a contact separation of at
least 3mm.
Use supply cable, having a minimum
conductor cross-sectional area of
1.25 mm2.
Where both hob unit and an oven are
to be installed adjacent to each other,
both appliances may be supplied via
the same double pole isolating switch
using separate supply cables. Check that
the total loading of the installation is
within the capacity of the double pole
isolating switch and the supply circuit.
Allow sufficient length in the supply
cable(s) for removal of the appliance(s)
for any subsequent servicing. Ensure
that this extra cable is not trapped and
is not in contact with the underside of
any hob when fitting the appliance(s) in
position.
As with all electrical appliances aIways
switch off the electricity supply when not
in use for long periods (when on holiday)
and before attempting any maintenance
task.
Fitting Into position
Your new CAPLE oven is designed to fit
into a kitchen unit which is at least 550
mm deep.
Before proceeding with the installation,
check that the oven will fit into the space
intended for it, appropriate ventilation
slots are provided as per installation
instructions on page 5 and that all
packing material has been removed.
IMPORTANT
Materials used to build the oven housing
must be capable ot withstanding tempe-
ratures of up to 100°C and the housing
must be firmly fixed in position.
Before Use
Check that all accessories have been
removed from the oven interior.
Set the temperature to 225°C using
the temperature control knob.
Leave on for approximately 30 minu-
tes. This will burn off any protective
coating applied to the oven during
manufacture.
The kitchen should be well ventilated
during this time as there may be an
odour given off.
When cool, wash the accessories and
the oven with warm water and mild
detergent.
WARNING!
ELECTRICITY CAN BE
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.

How To Install Your Oven
The oven is designed to fit into a cabinet
600 mm wide. The oven can be built-in
or built-under the kitchen units.
It is essential that the oven housing
is well ventilated.
If the oven is being installed into a fully
enclosed built-under oven housing (fig. 4) it
may be necessary to cut a small slot in the
top of the plinth panel fitted under the unit.
Cut a section 400 mm wide and a minimum
of 15 mm high to allow air to pass under
the unit. Also ensure that the front rail the
top of the unit is not installed as it could
restrict ventilation.
If the oven is being built in to a kitchen
unit (fig. 5) ensure that the oven is ven-
tilated with a 50 mm space at the top of
the kitchen unit.
Failure to allow adequate ventilation for
the appliance may result in over heating
or damage to adjacent units.
Caple does not accapt any responsibi-
lity for any damage caused due to non-
compliance with these instructions.
To install the oven into a kitchen unit (fig.
5) first ensure that the oven housing is
firmly secured to the wall and/or adjacent
fittings.
Lift the oven carefully into position on the
shelf, taking care NOT to lift it by the
door handle.
If you lower the oven door, you will see
four screw holes, two on each side of the
oven.
The oven should then be secured to the
housing by fitting screws into these
holes.

How To Use Your Oven
Fig. 6
You will find the following items delivered
with your oven; grill pan and 1 x handle,
2 wire side frames, 2 shelves, instruction
booklet and guarantee card.
The rating plate can be found on the
bottom right hand side of the inner door.
Before using the oven for the first time
we recommend that you clean it with
soapy water. Rinse carefully and heat for
30 minutes at maximum temperature.
A slightly unpleasant smell may be
produced, caused by grease remaining
on the oven elements from the
production process.
Attach the side frames as shown in fig. 6.
Cooking in a Conventional Oven
The oven has two heating elements, one
on the base and one on the roof of the
cooker. Hot air rises, so the top of the
oven is always the hottest. The
temperature in the middle of the oven is
maintained at the temperature set by the
control knob, and is slightly hotter above
and cooler below.
In a conventional oven, dishes requiring
different temperatures can be cooked in
the oven at the same time - e.g. roast
beef and Yorkshire pudding.
Always pre-heat a conventional oven
before use. The oven indicator oven
before use. The oven indicator light will
go out when the required temperature is
reached. Do not open the oven door
during cooking unless absolutely
necessary.
IMPORTANT: Drip trays, baking trays
etc. must not be left on the base of the
oven as this could damage the
appliance.
