SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
● User servicing: do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
● Do not use water on grease fires. Smother the fire or flame or use a dry chemical or
foam type extinguisher.
● Use only dry oven mitts or potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces
could result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot areas or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or a bulky cloth for a potholder. It could catch fire.
● Do not heat unopened food containers. They can build up pressure that may cause the
container to burst and result in injury.
● Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and
after cooking. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food
poisoning. Take particular care during warm weather.
● Always keep oven vents unobstructed.
● Do not operate your appliance by means of an external timer or separate remote
control system.
● Caution: Hot air can blow from the vent at the base of the oven as part of the oven’
cooling system.
● Placement of oven shelves: always position shelves in the desired location while the
oven is cool (before preheating). If a shelf must be removed while the oven is hot, do
not let the oven mitts or potholder contact hot heating elements in the oven or the
base of the oven.
● Do not clean the oven seal or use any oven-cleaning products on it. It is essential for a
good seal, which ensures that the oven operates efficiently. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or move it.
● Do not use oven cleaners, harsh/abrasive cleaning agents, waxes, or polishes. No
commercial oven cleaner, oven liner, or protective coating of any kind should be
used in or around any part of the oven. Do not use harsh/abrasive cleaners, scourers
or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they scratch the surface,
which may result in the glass shattering.
● Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
● Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the oven.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
● Before starting a Self Clean cycle (some models only) remove oven shelves and all
other cookware/utensils, and wipe up large food spills or grease deposits.
● Before starting a Self Clean cycle (some models only) make sure you move any pet
birds to another, closed and well-ventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during a Self Clean cycle and may die if left in the
same room as the oven during such a cycle.
● During a Self Clean cycle (some models only) the oven reaches higher temperatures
than it does for cooking. Under such conditions, the surfaces may get hotter than
usual and children should be kept away.
● Do not store things children might want above the oven. Children could be burned or
injured while climbing on the oven to retrieve items.
● Do not install or operate the appliance if it is damaged or not working properly. If you
receive a damaged product, contact your dealer or installer immediately.
● Use only bakeware approved for oven use. Follow the bakeware manufacturer’s
instructions.
● The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposure to substances which are known by the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. Small amounts of harmful chemicals
are given off in the oven’ self-cleaning cycle from insulation and food decomposition.
Significant exposure to these substances can cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Venting with a hood or open window, and wiping out excess food spills prior to self
cleaning the oven reduces exposure.

COOKING GUIDE
ROASTING
● The Roast function is designed to brown the outside of the meat but still keep the inside
moist and juicy.
● Boneless, rolled or stuffed roasts take longer than roasts containing bones.
● Poultry should be well cooked with the juices running clear and an internal temperature
of 165°F (75oC).
● If using a roasting bag, do not use the Roast function. The initial searing stage is too
hot for roasting bags. Use Fan Bake or Fan Forced and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions.
● When using the Roast function, do not cover your roast, as this will stop the searing
process browning the outside of the meat. If you prefer to roast in a covered pan, use
the Fan Bake function instead and increase the temperature by 70°F (20oC).
● Cook larger cuts of meat at a lower temperature for a longer time. The meat will cook
more evenly.
● Always roast meat fat side up. That way, basting may not be required.
● Always rest the meat for at least 10 minutes after roasting to allow the juices to settle.
Remember the meat will continue to cook for a few minutes after removing it from the
oven.
● Try our new Vent Bake function as an alternative for roasting pork. The drier atmosphere
will help to perfect your crackling.
Shelf Position Guide
Place the meat on a shelf so that the meat is in the center of the oven or lower.
BROILING
● This is a healthier alternative to frying.
● Always broil with the oven door completely shut.
● If you use glass or ceramic pans, be sure they can withstand the high temperatures of
the broil.
● To avoid piercing the meat and letting juices escape, use tongs or a spatula to turn the
meat halfway through cooking.
● Brush meat with a little oil to help keep the meat moist during cooking. Alternatively
marinade the meat before broiling (but be aware that some marinades may burn easily).
● Where possible broil cuts of meat of a similar thickness at the same time. This will
ensure even cooking.
● Always keep a close watch on your food while broiling to avoid charring or burning.
Shelf Position Guide
● For thinner cuts of meat, toasting or browning foods, use a higher shelf position.
● Thicker cuts of meats should be broiled on lower shelves or at a lower broil setting to
ensure even cooking.

COOKING GUIDE
REHEATING
● Use Bake, Fan Bake or Vent Bake to reheat food.
● Bake and Vent Bake are particularly good for reheating pastry based items, as the base
heat will help re-crisp the pastry case.
● Always reheat food to piping hot. This reduces the risk of contamination by harmful
bacteria.
● Once hot, use the Warm function to keep the food warm.
Never reheat a food more than once.
Drip Channel
Any condensation that is formed during the cooking process will collect in the drip
channel. This can be wiped out using a sponge once the oven has cooled.
