supplied must be installed.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in injury.
WARNING!
Electrical Shock Hazard
Switch the appliance off at the power supply before replacing fuses or the oven lamp.
If the cooktop surface is cracked, switch the appliance off at the power supply and
contact your service centre. Do not use until repaired.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or electric shock.
WARNING!
Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts will become hot when this appliance is in use.
Take care to avoid touching hot surfaces inside the oven or on the cooktop.
Use oven mitts or other protection when handling hot surfaces such as oven shelves
or dishes.
Take care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing
or replacing food.
Supervise children and keep them safely away until the oven is cool.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in burns and scalds.
WARNING!
Fire Hazard
Never leave the cooktop unattended during use – Boilover causes smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Cooking grease or oil may also self-ignite at high temperatures. Take extreme care
when frying.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. Persons could be injured
or a fire could start.
Keep the area around the appliance free from combustible materials (e.g. wall
coverings, curtains, drapes), gasoline and other flammable vapours and liquids.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on or near the
appliance.
Do not hang any articles (e.g. dish towels) off the oven handle. Some fabrics may
ignite or melt from the heat.
Be sure that all the controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any
type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. Chemicals in such cleaners could,
in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Failure to follow this advice may result in death or serious injury.

We recommend conditioning the oven before any cooking or baking and conditioning the
warmer drawer before using it for keeping food warm. Conditioning will burn off any
manufacturing oil residues and ensure that you get the best results right from the start.
Conditioning the oven
1 Read this user guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety and warnings’ section.
2 Make sure that the cooker is secured to the wall with the two anti-tip brackets.
3 Remove all accessories and packaging. Make sure you peel any protetctive film off the surfaces.
Discard the film immediately, keeping it out of reach of children.
4 If your model has an electronic clock, set the clock. See ‘Oven controls and setting the clock’ for
instructions.
Important!
The oven will not work until the clock has been set.
5 Slide in the shelves as shown in ‘Using the oven and warmer drawer’.
6 Heat the oven for 1 hour at 200
o
C on BAKE (two-function models) or FAN BAKE (four - and eight-
function models).
There will be a distintcive smell during the conditioning. This is normal, but make sure your
kitchen is well ventilated.
7 Once cooled, wipe out the oven with a damp cloth and mild detergent, and dry thoroughly.
Conditioning the warmer drawer (some models only)
1 Turn the empty warmer drawer on and leave it on for 30 minutes.
2 Turn off and allow the warmer drawer to cool, then wipe out with a damp cloth and mild
detergent and dry thoroughly.
First use - conditioning the oven and warmer drawer

12 Using the oven and warmer drawer
To start cooking
1 Slide in the shelves you will need, making sure that:
the safety stops point down
the guard rail is at the back.
2 Select a function.
The oven light will come on.
3 Set the temperature.
The temperature indicator light will come on.
It will go out when the oven has reached the set temperature.
During cooking
The temperature indicator light may come on and go out again as the oven maintains the
temperature.
Set the temperature back to o(OFF) before changing functions.
When you have finished cooking
Turn both the function and temperature knobs to the o(OFF) position.
Warmer drawer (some models only)
The warmer drawer has a low-powered element and is useful for keeping hot food warm or for
warming plates and serving dishes. To use, turn the warmer drawer knob to ON. Its indicator
light will glow when the drawer is on.
Note:
The warmer drawer is not suitable for reheating food from cold.
In models with no electronic clock, the drawer below the oven does not have a heating
element and is therefore used for storage only.

Oven functions
Depending on your model, your oven may have only some or all of the functions below.
See sections ‘Oven cooking tips’ and check the ‘Oven cooking charts’ for the recommended shelf
positions.
ALL MODELS
BAKE
This is the traditional method of cooking. It is most suitable for food that
requires long cooking such as rich fruit cakes and traditional roasts. Heat comes
from the top and bottom elements in the oven. The bottom element is
concealed beneath the oven floor. You will achieve a better result with baking
if the oven is preheated first. Cooking one shelf of food at a time is preferable.
Use FAN FORCED for multi-shelf baking (available in four-function and eight-
function models only).
GRILL
GRILL cooks a large area of food by using heat from the upper element and is
suitable for family meals or larger amounts of food. Do not set the temperature
higher than 225
o
C in this function. We recommend you use 225
o
C to grill meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
FOUR-FUNCTION & EIGHT-FUNCTION MODELS ADD
FAN GRILL
The fan circulates heat from the grill element around the oven. FAN GRILL is
suitable for foods you would normally fry, eg sausages and meatballs. It also
cooks larger cuts of meat and whole chickens well, giving a result that
is similar to a rotisserie. Fan grilling is carried out with the door closed, and the
oven does not need to be preheated. Do not set the temperature higher than
200
o
C in this function.
FAN FORCED
Fan forced cooking circulates heat from the element around the fan throughout
the oven. This function is particularly good for multi-shelf cooking, batch baking
or cooking several dishes together. Use also for casseroles and baked vegetables,
as you can place them anywhere in the oven except on the oven floor.

14 Oven functions
EIGHT-FUNCTION MODELS ONLY ADD
FAN BAKE
A fan at the rear of the oven circulates hot air from the top and bottom elements
around the oven. The fan tends to dry the surface of the food being cooked,
which makes it suitable for crisping foods, eg slices, pastries and oven-roasted
vegetables. FAN BAKE can be used at a low temperature (50°C) for drying fruit,
vegetables and herbs.
CLASSIC BAKE
CLASSIC BAKE uses heat from the bottom element only. It is particularly suitable
for quiches, pies and slices that require more cooking on the bottom. We
recommend that you preheat the oven on BAKE or FAN BAKE then switch to
CLASSIC BAKE once the oven is at the desired temperature.
ECO GRILL
ECO GRILL is suitable for single servings or small pieces of food. By using it you
can save energy because you heat a smaller portion of the grill element. Do not
set the temperature higher than 225°C in this function. For best results when
grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
DEFROST
DEFROST allows you to defrost food using the oven fan without any heat. This
prevents food from drying out or starting to cook. Leave the temperature
setting at the o(OFF) position as no heat is required. Defrosting this way is
particularly good for delicate foods. Remove food from the oven as soon as it is
thawed.

Generally, the top shelf positions are for grilling, and the middle and lower positions are suitable
for baking, roasting and casseroles. Do not place anything on the oven floor.
Important!
Do not place aluminium foil, dishes with reflective qualities, water, ice or any object on the oven floor as this
will cause a heat build-up which irreversibly damages the enamel.
Baking
Always position the oven shelves before turning the oven on.
Grease tins and line bases with non-stick paper. For rich mixtures and fruitcakes, line the sides of
the tins as well.
Turn cakes onto baking racks when cool. Leave sponges in tins for at least 10 minutes before
inverting.
Always preheat the oven until the temperature indicator light turns off. This is particularly
important when baking.
Grilling
The length of time your food takes to grill will be affected by its thickness and temperature.
When grilling thicker items such as sausages, turn them often to ensure even browning.
Always grill with the door open to the first stop position unless you use FAN GRILL, when the
door should be closed and the oven does not need preheating.
The door and cooktop may become hot. Take care and keep children away.
Roasting
A large piece of meat requires fewer minutes per 500 g than a smaller piece. Meat with a bone
will cook faster than a rolled roast.
Do not add water to your roast as this has a steaming effect.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure an accurate result. As the internal temperature of the meat
will continue to rise during standing, please allow for this in your calculation. This is particularly
important if you want a rare or medium rare roast.
