Clock and timer
Setting the clock
To set the clock, press the CLOCK button, and then press the HOURS and MINUTES buttons until the
clock shows the correct time.
You can choose between 12 or 24 hour clock displays. To do this, press and hold down the CLOCK
button and CLEAR button at the same time. Each time these buttons are pressed together the clock
alternates between 12 and 24 hour displays.
Using the timer
You can use the timer at any time, even when the oven is not in use. The timer does not turn the
oven off.
To set the timer, press the MINUTE TIMER button, then the HOURS and MINUTES buttons to set the
time you want. The display will show the remaining time, counting down in minutes and seconds.
To see the time of day while the timer is running, press CLOCK. The display will briefly show the time
of day, then return to showing the countdown of time remaining.
When the time is up, the timer will beep and TIMER will flash in the display. To turn it off, press any
clock button.
To cancel the timer at any time, press CLEAR.
Limiting the number of ‘beeps’
You can limit the number of times your oven beeps to five beeps. To do this, press the CLOCK and
FUNCTION buttons together. Do the same again to return to a longer beep time of approximately

pre-set temperature which can be adjusted, except for WARM. The temperature display will alternate

oven cools down.

For extra safety, you can lock the control panel to guard against accidental bumps, for example when
you are cleaning the oven, or to stop children using the oven when they should not.
To lock or unlock the control panel, press and hold the KEY LOCK button for two seconds.

Cooking functions
FAN BAKE Fan plus top and bottom
elements
FAN BAKE circulates hot air from the
top and bottom elements. Food cooks
faster than in BAKE, so you may need to
lower the oven temperature by 5-10 °C.
FAN BAKE is good for crisping food, eg
pastry products, and it is also the best
method for heating your pizza stone.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
The default temperature is 160 °C. Adjust this using the
TEMP and buttons.
3
Preheat the oven before use.
FAN (FAN FORCED) Fan plus fan
element
Heat from the element around the fan
is forced throughout the oven. FAN
is perfect for multi-shelf cooking and
batch baking, casseroles and baked
potatoes.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button once.
3
The default temperature is 180 °C. Adjust this using the
TEMP and buttons
4
Preheat the oven before use.
BAKE Top and bottom elements
BAKE is the traditional method of
cooking. It is best to cook on only one
shelf at a time in this function. Use
BAKE for delicate food and foods that
require long cooking, eg fruit cakes,
bread and roasts.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button twice.
3
The default temperature is 180 °C. Adjust this using the
TEMP and buttons.

WARM Top and bottom elements
WARM is a constant low heat, useful
for keeping hot food warm or warming
plates. It should not be used to reheat
food as the food will not reach a
temperature high enough to kill any
harmful bacteria.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button three times.
3
The default temperature is 75 °C. This cannot be
adjusted.

6
DEFROST Fan only
The fan circulates air around the oven,
speeding up the defrosting process by
approximately 30%.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button four times.
3
The default temperature is 50 °C. You can adjust this
between 50 °C and 30 °C, using the TEMP and
buttons.
4
Preheat the oven before use.
GRILL-HI Inner and outer top
elements
GRILL-HI uses both of the top elements
and is ideal for grilling a large area of
food. For best results leave the door
open at the first stop position. Grilled
vegetables are quick to cook and full
of flavour.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button five times.
3
The default temperature is H9, the hottest. Adjust this
using the TEMP and buttons.
4
Preheat the grill before use.

top element and is useful when you
need to grill single servings or small
pieces of food. For best results leave
the door open at the first stop position.
1
Press the ON/OFF button.
2
Press the FUNCTION button six times.
3
The default temperature is E9, the hottest. Adjust this
using the TEMP and buttons.

FAN GRILL Fan plus top elements
FAN GRILL circulates hot air from the
top elements and is excellent for food
that would normally be fried. Large
cuts of meat can be cooked using this
function with results similar to using
a rotisserie. Use FAN GRILL for dishes
such as lasagne and moussaka. Fan-
grilled whole chicken is excellent.
Fan grill with the oven door closed.
