Safety and warnings
Important safety instructions
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.
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 use of the appliance in a safe way
and understand the hazards involved. Children
shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
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 warmer weather.
Do not place aluminium foil, dishes, trays, water
or ice on the oven floor during cooking as this
will irreversibly damage the enamel.
Do not stand on the door, or place heavy objects
on it.
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.

4Safety and warnings
Important safety instructions
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of
the oven.
Caution. Hot air can blow from under the control
panel as part of the oven’s cooling system.
Do not keep flammable substances in the oven.
Do not operate your appliance by means of
an external timer or separate remote-control
system.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be

10 Oven functions
Oven functions may vary depending on your model
OVEN LAMP
Only the oven light comes on. It remains on in all the cooking functions.
BAKE
This is the traditional method of baking. It is best to bake on only one shelf at a time in this
function. Ideal for large cakes and dishes that bake for several hours.
GRILL
Use with the oven door closed and the temperature set no higher than 225°C. For best results,
use the topmost shelf position when you want quick browning (eg toast).
DEFROST
Only the oven fan comes on. Use with the temperature set to off (0). The fan circulates air
around the oven, speeding up the defrosting process by approximately 30%. Note: this function
is not for cooking food.
FAN FORCED
Great for multi-shelf cooking. The consistent temperature ensures baking is well risen. Cookies
are crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle, meat and poultry are deliciously browned and
sizzling while remaining juicy and tender.
FAN GRILL
Use with the oven door closed and the temperature set no higher than 220°C. Ideal for roasting
tender cuts of meat and poultry. Use lower shelf positions for larger items eg a whole chicken.
OR WARM
Use this function to keep cooked food hot and to warm plates and serving dishes. To reheat food
from cold, set the temperature to 150°C and reduce it to 70-100°C only when the food is piping
hot. Note: this function is not for cooking and the temperature cannot be set higher than 150°C.
FAN BAKE (upper oven only)
Ideal for dishes like lasagne that need to brown on top and also single trays of small cakes or
biscuits that bake in less than an hour.
FAN BAKE (ENERGY SAVING — lower oven only)
This function reduces the appliances energy consumption. Ideal for gentle cooking over a longer
period of time. For best results, cook small portions on a single shelf and always use with the
oven door closed. It is not necessary to preheat the oven. Cooking times may be longer than
standard functions. Do not use this function to preheat the oven for other functions.

11
Important!
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after cooking or
defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take particular
care during warmer weather.
Notes on baking:
Preheat the oven before baking.
Do not place anything, including water, ice or aluminium foil on the oven floor.
Remove the fat filter before baking (some models only).
Using the fat filter (some models only)
Use the fat filter only when roasting meat and poultry on Fan Bake, Fan Grill or
Fan Forced. It helps to keep your oven clean and reduces splatter and smoking.
Clean the fat filter after every use. See ‘Care and cleaning’.
Remove the fat filter before baking: gripping the top flap, slide up to unhook it from the rear
panel.
To replace the fat filter: align with the circle in the rear panel, then slide down to hook into place.
Important!
If the fat filter is not cleaned after every use, the grease build-up will block and shorten the life of the fan
element.

12 Baking charts
Please note:
The settings in the following charts are guidelines only. Follow the instructions in your recipe or
on packaging and be prepared to adjust the oven settings and baking times to achieve the best
possible results for you.
Shelf positions are counted from the oven floor up (1 is the lowest, 4 or 6 the highest).
Arrange oven shelves before you turn the oven on, then preheat the oven to the required
temperature (until the temperature indicator light goes out).
Full ovens are ideal for multi-shelf baking or larger items.
Compact ovens are the ideal and most energy-efficient choice for baking small or flat items (eg
cookies, pizza) on a single shelf; however, they have not been designed for multi-shelf baking.
Settings in bold indicate the recommended oven function.
Baking chart - full ovens
The shelf positions recommended below use the flat oven shelf (not the step-down shelf)
used either with or without sliding shelf supports. Note: the step-down shelf and sliding shelf
supports are not supplied with all models.

Important!
Always disconnect the oven from the power supply before any cleaning or maintenance.
When you turn the power back on after cleaning, you will have to set the clock.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, cloths or pads to clean any part of your oven. Some nylon scourers
may also scratch. Check the label.
See the following pages for instructions on removing and refitting different parts of the oven for
cleaning.
Before cleaning, make sure the oven is a safe temperature to touch.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
What? How? Important!
General advice Wipe out the oven after every

Wipe up spills as soon as the
oven is a safe temperature to
touch.
Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic
substances (such as lemon juice,
vinegar or salty spills) on the oven
surfaces.
Do not use cleaning products with
a chlorine or acidic base.
Stainless steel
surfaces
1 Wipe the soiling off with a

polish.
Immediately wipe off any caustic
cleaners if they are spilled onto
the oven door handle or the knobs.
Glass surfaces Wipe with a damp cloth or use a
glass cleaner.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners
or sharp metal scrapers since they
scratch the surface and may result
in the glass shattering.
