Making an Electrical Connection
An approved suitable cable must be connected from the Consumer Unit (main fuse box)and be protected by its
own 30 amp fuse or Micro Circuit Breaker (MCB).
The electrician must provide a fused double-pole isolation switch, which disconnects both the line (live) and
neutral conductors, with a contact separation of at least 3 mm incorporated into the xed wiring. The fused
switch should be tted to the kitchen wall, and must be placed in an easy accessible position in accordance with
IEE regulations. Connect the fused switch to a junction box which should be tted on the wall. The ovens power
supply cable can then be connected. Connect one end to the junction box and connect the other end to the
ovens power connection box which is located at the back of the oven. Remove the cover of the power connection
box and install the cable, in accordance with the connection diagram. The power supply cable must be positioned
away from direct heat sources. It should not be subjected to a temperature rise of more than 50°C above room
temperature.
Terminal Box Connections
For this oven, the cable type must be a minimum of H05VV-F
(PVC insulated and sheathed) 3 cores x 4 mm2and the
connection should be made as detailed below.
Green / Yellow (Earth) to the PE ( ) terminal
Brown (Live) wire to the terminal marked L
Blue (Neutral) wire to the terminal marked N
Ensure the cable exits through the cable grip, clamping on
the outer sheath of the cable, and x in place by tightening
the xing screw.
Ensure all connections are adequately tightened. Do not over
tighten as you may risk damaging the threads.
This appliance must be earthed.
For this connection, ‘Twin and Earth 6242Y’
type cable can be used.

First Time Use of the Oven
Unpack the oven. Remove any packaging or labels. Use a damp cloth to carefully wipe the inner cavity wall and
housing. Clean all the detachable parts in hot, soapy water before using.
Heat the appliance on maximum, making sure the room is well ventilated as there may be a little smoke and
odour. This is normal, and is due to the protective substance on the appliance which protects it during shipping
from the factory. Switch the appliance o once the smoke and odour has stopped. This can take up to 30 minutes.
Replacing the Anti-tilting Oven Shelf
• Insert the shelf at an angle with the vertical section to the rear to clear the stops at
either side of the guide slot. Once past this stop the shelf can be placed level again.
• To remove, completely angle the shelf upward so the shelf stop is cleared from the
guide stop.
• Accessible parts may become hot when in use. Children should be kept away.

1. To get the best results, the smallest distance
allowed between the food and the upper
heating element is 30 mm.
2. On the wall of the inner cavity there are 5
dierent shelf guide slots. You can place the
shelf at dierent heights to achieve the best
cooking performance depending on the heat
of the heating elements and the size of food.
If only the upper heating element is on, we
suggest that you place the shelf on guide 1
(make sure that there is a minimum distance of
30 mm between the food and the upper heating
element).
3. Always monitor the food during cooking to
ensure that you are not overcooking it.
4. For heavy food, use the Baking Pan rather than the wire shelf.
5. Select the oven function you require. Select the temperature you require.
6. Before placing food in the oven you may need to pre-heat the oven for 10 minutes.
7. The temperature light will go out when the chosen temperature has been reached.
8. To switch the oven o turn the function control dial to the o position ‘0’.
9. The grill pan has a detachable handle. Ensure the grill pan handle is centralised and
Using the Oven
• Under no circumstances should the oven be lined with aluminium foil as overheating may occur.
• Do not place dishes or baking trays directly onto the base of the oven as it becomes very hot and
damage may occur.
• Bread may catch re if the toasting time is too long. Close supervision is necessary during toasting.
• During use, this appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching hot surfaces,
e.g., oven door, heating elements.
• Accessible parts may become hot when in use. Children should be kept away.
• Do not leave the handle in position when grilling. If the handle is left in position when grilling,
it will get very hot.

secure as shown below when in use.
Using the Functions
Symbol Function Description
Static Cooking Function
The static cooking function emits heat, ensuring even cooking of the lower and upper food,
this is an excellent function for making pastries, cakes, baked pasta, lasagne and pizza.
Lower Heating Function
The lower heating function is ideal for baking pizza, as the heat rises from the bottom of the
oven and warms food up, rather than cooking the foods.
Upper Heating Function
In this type of cooking, the heat emanating from upper heating element cooks the upper
side of the food. This is suitable for browning the top of a cooked dish.
Grilling Function
This function is used for grilling foods such as cheese on toast, always use the highest rack.
Lightly brush the grill rack with oil to stop foods sticking and place the foods in the centre.
The grill pan and rack should be used together to catch the drips of oil.
Faster Grilling Function
This function is used for faster grilling and for covering a larger surface area, such as grilling
meats, which tend to take up more room on a grilling rack. Use a lower shelf position for
grilling thick foods.
Baking Tips
1. Always place baking tins in the centre of the wire shelf.
2. Make sure you use bakeware that is oven proof.
3. Do not place bakeware too close to the rear of the oven wall.
4. You can inuence the degree of browning by changing the temperature setting.
5. If a cake collapses after removing it from the oven:
• Use less liquid on your next attempt.
• Consider using a longer baking time or use a slightly lower temperature setting.
Energy Saving
To save energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend these hints:
• Preheat the oven only if expressly required by the recipe or guidelines.
• Dark baking tins have a higher degree of heat absorption.
• In the case of longer baking times, you can switch o the oven 5–10 minutes before the full baking time and
use the residual heat. This will reduce energy usage.
• Use the oven eciently, by cooking many trays of food at the same time.
• Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes or sausage rolls at the same time.
• Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
• Do not open the oven door more than necessary.

Cleaning Tips
• Ensure that the appliance is switched o and isolated before cleaning the oven to avoid the possibility
of electric shock.
• Allow the oven to fully cool before cleaning.
1. Remove the wire shelves, wash them separately in hot soapy water and dry thoroughly.
2. Wash the interior of the oven with hot soapy water and wipe down with a damp cloth.
3. Leave the door open until the interior has dried, before replacing the wire shelves.
4. Clean the oven after each use, especially after roasting or grilling, this will help reduce spilt or splattered food
debris burning and becoming dicult to remove.
5. Do not use abrasive pads to clean the interior of the oven as this may remove the enamel, which will aect
the eciency of your oven.
6. Steam cleaners must never be used to clean this oven.
Cleaning the Outside of the Oven
1. You should regularly wipe over the control panel and oven door using a soft cloth and liquid detergent as
spilt liquids may damage the nish.
2. Wash enamelled or chrome plated parts of the oven with hot soapy water or with non-abrasive detergents.
3. Never use abrasive pads to clean enamelled, chromed or stainless steel surfaces.
4. When using commercially available stainless steel cleaning products, avoid cleaning any lettering or symbols,
as they can become damaged.
Cleaning the Oven Door Glass
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they scratch the
surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
Take care when handling parts with glass, knocks, and chips; heavy handling and dropping could cause
the glass to shatter.
