Before first use
First use
Before using the oven for the first time we recommend that, with
the power supply o, you clean the oven with soapy water. Once
done, rinse carefully, remove all accessories from the appliance
and then heat on the below programme at maximum temperature
for the specified time. A slightly unpleasant smell may be
produced, caused by grease remaining on the oven element from
the production process.
Please note:
This oven has been fitted with a cooling fan to achieve maximum
eciency and to maintain low surface temperatures. The cooling
fan will switch on automatically when the oven switches on. It is
normal for the cooling fan to run for an hour or more after use,
depending on the duration, temperature and type of cooking
programme used.
• The oven light remains on for every cooking function for 1
minute then will go out. The oven light can be switched on or
o at any time.
• Switching the oven o will result in any semi-automatic or
automatic cooking to be cancelled
• We recommend preheating the grill for 5 minutes before each
use.

Filling the water tank
Before using the steam functions for the first time we recommend
that you remove and clean, thoroughly, the water tank in the
appliance. The water tank can be found on the right hand side of
the appliance when the door is open (circled below).
Fill the tank up to the maximum capacity line and carefully re-insert
the tank. The appliance will warn you when the system is out of
water by displaying ‘Lo’ on the timer section of the display.
If you are leaving the appliance and/or the steam functions to go
unused for some time (i.e. whilst on holiday) we recommend
emptying and drying the water tank so as to prevent the water from
stagnating.

Care and maintenance
It is important, before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance,
that you disconnect or switch o the appliance at the power
supply. If the oven has been in use, let the cavity and any
elements cool down suciently before attempting any cleaning
or maintenance.
Changing the interior light
• If the light has been on recently, allow it to cool before
removing it
• Wearing suitable hand protection, such as gloves, remove the
screws around the protective glass cover (Fig. 2). Carefully
remove the cover. It is advisable to wash and dry the cover
and store it somewhere safe where it won’t cause nor receive
damage
• Carefully remove the old bulb
and dispose of it safely. Insert
the new bulb, ensuring that your
hands are still protected. This
will also preserve the lifespan
of the replacement bulb. The
new bulb must be able to
withstand high temperature
(300°C) and match the following
specifications: 230-240V, 50Hz,
25W, G9 fitting.
• Refit the protective cover, taking
care not to pinch or crimp the
cover gasket, and re-attach the
four screws (Fig. 2). Fig. 2

18 | Instruction Manual
Removing the appliance door
In order to allow for easier access into the oven cavity for cleaning,
it is possible to remove the door. Before removing the door,
ensure that you have an area prepared in which you can place the
removed door. This area should ideally be protected by something
like a folded, dirt-free, towel to help prevent damage to surfaces
and the door.
• Open the door fully
• Lift and tilt the safety catch part of the hinge (Fig .3) so that it is
fully extended and points towards the door.
• Close the door most of the way, lift it slightly and then pull it,
safely but firmly, towards you
Fig. 3
Fig. 4
Important
Do not use any other tool, except for a screwdriver, to remove the
protective cover as this may damage the lamp assembly or the
oven.

Instruction Manual | 19
Replacing the appliance door
• Hold the door to the appliance in the closed position and
manoeuvre the hinges so that the part of the hinge, highlighted
by the star in Fig. 4, inserts into the hinge slot in the cavity
frame.
• Next, ensure the notch on the underside of the hinge sits on
the lip of the hinge slot. Open
the door fully. Each hinge should
be seated in the same way as
the hinge in Fig. 5. If it is not,
follow the steps for removing the
door and try replacing it again.
• Finally, lift the safety catch part
of the hinges back into place so
that they are lying flat against
the hinges. Fig. 5
Please note: If the hinge safety catches are not in the correct
place then the door and/or appliance may receive damage when
attempting to close the door.

20 | Instruction Manual
Removing the inner door glass
On the upper edges of the door assembly there are two plastic
clips (C in Fig. 6). These must be removed by pressing the arrow
symbol inwards and then pulling them firmly away from the door
assembly in the same direction as the arrows.
Once these clips have been removed, you can lift and remove the
inner glass. The glass will be seated in two black rubber grooves
and it is important that the glass is placed back into these when
reinserting the glass. Take note of which way around the glass was
when removed, and reinsert it in the same way. Then, reinsert the
clips (C).
