Before first use
oTo remove any residue from the oven that may have been left from the
manufacturing process, you should select the fan oven function and set the
thermostat to its maximum temperature setting.
oIt is perfectly normal for an odour to be produced during this process.
oYou should make sure that any windows in the room are left open during this
process.
oIt is advisable for you not to remain in the room whilst the burning off process is
taking place.
oYou should leave the oven on maximum setting for 30 –40 minutes.
oAfter the oven cavity has cooled, it should then be cleaned with warm soapy
water, using either a sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should be used.
oOuter parts of the oven should be cleaned with warm soapy water, using either a
sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should be used.
oWe would recommend that an appropriate stainless steel cleaner and polish is
regularly used on the stainless steel surfaces of this appliance.

Selecting an oven function and temperature
Mechanical cut-off timer
To use the oven without using the timer, turn the
Mechanical cut-off timer knob so it is pointing to ON.
You may now proceed to use the oven as normal.
To use the oven with timer, simply turn the
Mechanical cut-off timer knob so that it is pointing to
the desired cooking time (up to 120 minutes) and
proceed to cook as normal. The oven will automatically stop cooking once the
countdown is complete. Be sure to turn the oven function and thermostat control
knob to 0 when cooking is complete.
IMPORTANT: The oven power should be off when the alarm silences. If you
have finished cooking, you should turn the oven function selector and
thermostat control knob to 0.
The oven function selector knob should be used to select the
particular mode of cooking that you require. The appliance
will utilise different elements within the oven cavity,
depending on the oven function that you select. When a
function is selected, the power indicator light will come on.
The oven has 4 functions for your choosing:
OVEN LIGHT: Separate light control which allows the light to be switched on,
even when the oven is not cooking.
DEFROST: This function runs the fan to reduce defrosting time without using
heat. A safe way to gently defrost frozen foods.
FULL GRILL: The grill element at the top of the oven cavity is active.
Ideal for grilling, toasting, or crisping a full shelf of food.
FAN FORCED: Heat from a special element by the fan is evenly distributed
as the fan runs. Handy when cooking on several shelves at once.

11
Thermostat control knob
The oven thermostat control knob sets the required
temperature of the oven. It is possible to regulate the
temperature within a range of 50 - 250°C.
Turn the control knob clockwise.
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.

Warnings
oKeep the oven door closed when using any of the grill functions.
oDo not use aluminium foil to cover the grill pan or heat items wrapped in
aluminium foil under the grill. The high reflectivity of the foil could potentially
damage the grill element.
oYou should also never line the base of your oven with aluminium foil.
oDuring cooking, never place pans or cookware directly onto the bottom of
your oven. They should always be placed on the shelves provided.
oThe grill heating element and other internal components of the oven become
extremely hot during operation, avoid touching it inadvertently when handling
the food which you are grilling.
oImportant: Be careful when opening the door, to avoid contact with hot parts
of the oven and steam.
oThe drip tray handle should only be used to reposition the drip tray and NOT
for removing it from the oven cavity. When removing the drip tray, you should
ALWAYS use an oven glove.
oThe drip tray handle should not be left in position when the appliance is
switched on.
oA steam cleaner is not to be used.
oWarning: Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children
should be kept well away when in use.
oDo not use harsh abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers to clean the oven door
glass as this can scratch the surface, which may result in the oven glass
shattering.

Cleaning and maintenance
The oven should be cleaned after every use. When cleaning the oven the
lighting should be switched on to enable you to see the surfaces better.
The oven chamber should only be washed with warm water and a small
amount of washing-up liquid.
After cleaning the oven chamber, wipe it dry.
Never clean the oven surfaces by steam cleaning.
The oven cavity should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using either a
sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should be used.
Any stains that may appear on the bottom of the oven will have originated from
food splashes or spilt food, these splashes occur during the cooking process.
These could possibly be a result of the food being cooked at an excessively
high temperature or being placed in cookware that is too small.
You should select a cooking temperature and function that is appropriate for
the food that you are cooking. You should also ensure that the food is placed in
an adequately sized dish and that you use the drip tray where appropriate.
Outer parts of the oven should only be cleaned with warm soapy water, using
either a sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should be used.

is switched off before replacing the bulb.
1. Remove all oven shelves, the drip tray and the side rack that is on the
same side as the oven light.
2. Using a screwdriver, remove the lamp cover.
3. Remove the light bulb and replace it with a halogen lamp.
4. Replace the bulb with another 230V, 25W/ 300°C, cap G9.
5. Do not use any other type of bulb.
6. Place the lamp cover back into position.
7. There is a curve on one side of the lamp cover; this should be on the
right hand side as the cover goes back into place.
Make sure it is properly inserted into the ceramic socket. Do not touch the
light bulb directly with your hands.
Door removal
The hinges (A) have two moveable bolts on them (B). If you raise both of the
moveable bolts (B), then the hinges (A) are released from the oven housing.
Gripping the sides of the door at the centre, incline the door
slightly towards the oven cavity. Pull the door gently
away from the oven cavity.
Make sure that the door is supported at all times and that you place the door
on some padded material whilst cleaning it. The oven door and door glass
should only be cleaned using a damp cloth and a small amount of detergent.
The cloth must not have come into contact with any form of cleaning product
or chemical previously. To refit the door, slide the hinges back into their slots
and open the door fully. The moveable bolts (B) must be closed back into
their original positions before closing the door.

Steam and condensation is a natural by-product of cooking any food with
high water content, such as frozen food, chicken etc.
You may get condensation in the oven cavity and forming between the oven
door glasses. This is not necessarily a sign that the oven is not working
correctly.
Do not leave food in the oven to cool after it has been cooked and the oven
has been switched off.
Use a covered container, where practical, when cooking to reduce the
amount of condensation that forms.
IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be operating correctly,
please contact the dealer.
