SAFETY AND WARNINGS
WARNING!
Fire Hazard
Do not place aluminium foil,
dishes, trays, water or ice on
the oven floor during cooking,
as doing so will irreversibly
damage the enamel; lining the
oven with aluminium foil may
even cause fire.
Never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
Persons could be burned or
injured or a fire could start.
Storage in or on appliance:
flammable materials should not
be stored in an oven or near its
surface.
Failure to follow this advice may

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
WARNING!
Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts may become
hot when in use.
To avoid burns and scalds, keep
children away.
Use oven mitts or other
protection when handling hot
surfaces such as oven shelves or
dishes.
Use care when opening the oven
door.
Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing
food.
Do not touch heating elements
or interior surfaces of the oven.
Heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in
colour. Interior surfaces
of an oven become hot enough
to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing
or other flammable materials
contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of the oven
until they have had sufficient
time to cool.
Other surfaces of the appliance
may become hot enough to
cause burns - among these
surfaces are the oven vent,
the surface near the oven vent,
and the oven door.
Failure to follow this advice
could result in burns and scalds.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, injury to persons or damage
when using the oven, follow the
important safety instructions listed
below:
• Read all the instructions before using
the oven. Use the oven only for its
intended purpose as described in
these instructions.
• Proper installation: be sure your
appliance is properly installed and
earthed by a qualified technician.
• Isolating switch: make sure this
oven is connected to a circuit which
incorporates an isolating switch
providing full disconnection from the
power supply.
• Household appliances are not
intended to be played with by
children.

7
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• Do not leave children alone.
Children should not be left alone or
unattended in the area where the
appliance is in use. They should never
be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
• Children of less than 8 years old must
be kept away from the appliance
unless continuously supervised. This
appliance can be used by children
aged from 8 years and above, and
persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or
lack of experience and knowledge,
if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning the use of
the appliance in a safe way and they
understand the hazards involved.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall
not be done by children without
supervision.
• Do not place heavy objects on the
oven door.
• Wear proper apparel. Do not wear
loose fitting or hanging garments
when using the appliance. They
could ignite or melt if they touch an
element or hot surface and you could
be burned.

8
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• 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.

9
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• 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 top of the oven as part of
the oven’s 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.

10
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• 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.
• 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.

COOKING GUIDE
General guidelines
This oven has been designed to utilise its four elements and rear fan in differing
combinations to provide you with enhanced performance and a wide range of functions,
allowing you to cook all types of food to perfection.
BAKING
● For best results when baking, always pre heat your oven. The temperature indicator will
go out when the pre-set temperature is reached.
● While the oven is heating the grill element may be on.
● Do not open the door until at least 3/4 of the way through cooking.
● Make sure cake pans do not touch each other or the sides of the oven.
● When baking double the recipe (especially cookies) you may need to increase the time
by a couple of minutes.
● Your cookware will influence baking times. Dark pans absorb the heat more quickly than
reflective pans; glass cookware may require a lower temperature.
● Multi-shelf baking may also require a slight increase in cooking time.
● Always leave a space between shelves when multi-shelf cooking to allow the air to
circulate.
Shelf Position Guide
Place your baking on a shelf that will have the top of your pan near the centre of the
oven cavity.
