WARNING!
Tipping Hazard
All ranges can tip. Keep children away
and take care.
The anti-tip brackets supplied must be
installed.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in injury.
Installation instructions
Installing your range
Connection of this range to fixed or flexible
wiring must be made by a suitably registered
person. Connection by an unregistered person
can cause a safety hazard.
We recommend that the range circuit is
protected by a suitably rated circuit breaker but
not connected to a Residual Current Device
(R.C.D.) or an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker
(E.L.C.B.)
This range is designed for a 230/240V AC single
or two phase connection.
This range must be connected with an
appropriately rated cord and plug that is
compatible with the socket-outlet fitted to the
final subcircuit in the fixed wiring that is intended to supply this cooking range. For single
phase connection, the supply cord should be at least equivalent to an ordinary PVC sheathed
and insulated, 4 mm2, three core (twin and earth), flexible cord. For two phase connection, the
supply cord should be at least equivalent to an ordinary PVC sheathed and insulated, 2.5 mm2,
four core, flexible cord.
This appliance must be connected to a circuit which incorporates an isolating switch providing
full disconnection from the power supply.
Cabinet clearances are as in the diagram on the right.
The clock display will flash 0.00 alternately with AUTO when it is turned on at the wall. If an
excessive voltage is detected, HELP will show in the clock display, the range will beep for two
minutes and the clock will automatically enter safety mode, preventing the range from being
turned on. Turn the range off at the wall, check that the cord is properly connected to the
terminals, correct and turn the range back on to reset the clock module.
If you raise the range to align it with the bench, make sure the base of the range cannot slip.
Anti-tip brackets
Two anti-tip brackets are supplied with the accessories so that the range can be secured to the
wall to prevent it from tipping over. Use the two screws on the back panel of the range, shown
below.

Safety and warnings
Important safety precautions
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.
Children, or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should
have a responsible person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that
they can use the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
Safe food handling:
food should be left in the oven as short a time as possible before and after cooking. This is
to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause potential food poisoning. Particular
care should be taken during warmer weather.
Do not place aluminum 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 tray
The baking tray is suitable for biscuits and baked goods.
Three-piece grill/roast system
(Grill/Roast pan, grid and wire rack).
For grilling and roasting, we recommend using the grill/roast system. The grill grid sits inside
the grill/roast pan, so they can be placed in the oven together. The wire rack sits on top of the
grid.
Traditional roasting dish
The traditional roasting dish also comes with a grid. The dish and grid are ideal for traditional
roasting, and are designed to reduce splatter and smoke.

6
Self-cleaning liners
Self-cleaning liners are coated with special enamel, which is porous and contains oxidising
catalysts. Any grease and dirt coming into contact with the liners is absorbed by the enamel,
and is broken down with the help of the catalysts at normal cooking temperatures. See
‘Cleaning’ for further information.
Oven shelves (racks)
See ‘Operating the oven’ for how to position the oven shelves.

Operating the oven
Controls
Using your oven : Paprika, Sage and Cinnamon
Turn the oven on by selecting the temperature you want with the temperature knob. The oven
light will come on automatically. The temperature light will glow until it has reached the set
temperature.
For grilling turn the temperature knob to GRILL. You cannot change the grill temperature.
When you have finished cooking, turn the temperature knob to OFF.
Using your oven : all other models
Select the function using the function knob then select the temperature with the temperature
knob. The oven light will come on automatically when a function is selected. The temperature
light will glow until the oven has reached the set temperature.
To use the grill, select GRILL with the function knob. Set the GRILL temperature using the
temperature knob. The hottest temperature is HI. We recommend that you use HI for grilling
meats.
When you have finished cooking, turn the temperature and function knobs to OFF.
Shelf positions
Shelf positions are numbered
from the top down. Generally,
the top 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.
The ‘Cooking charts’ throughout this user guide give you suggested shelf positions.
However, you may wish to change these to suit yourself.
Place the shelves in the correct shelf position before you heat the oven.
The step-down shelf (see ‘Accessories’) slots into the same shelf positions, but increases
flexibility as it maximises the useable space in the oven cavity.
Important!
For all shelf positions make sure you fit the oven shelves and the grill/roast pan between the
metal runners of the shelf supports.
The oven shelves and the grill/roast pan have a ‘stop-notch’ so that you do not accidentally
pull them right out of the oven. Make sure you put the stop notch towards the back of the
oven.

Lower oven (Oregano model only)
The lower oven has a bake element only, so is best used for casseroling and baking vegetables.
It has its own shelf (see ‘Accessories’). The lower oven takes smaller quantities of food than the
upper oven.
Warmer drawer (Paprika, Thyme, Pepper, Coriander and Saffron models)
The warmer drawer has a low powered element and is useful for keeping food warm or for
warming plates and serving dishes. Rotate the warmer knob to turn the warmer drawer on
and off. The indicator light will glow when the drawer is on.
Storage drawer (Sage and Cinnamon models)
The storage drawer does not have an element so is not used for keeping food warm.

15
Cooking functions
There are a variety of cooking functions depending on your range model.
Before cooking on Fan or Bake functions, check the ‘Cooking charts’ for the recommended
shelf positions.
Fan cooking
Fan functions allow you to cook individual foods or several foods on different shelves and can
successfully be used for most foods. A fan circulates air throughout the oven giving a more
even temperature distribution.
Your oven may have some of the following fan functions:
FAN BAKE
A separate 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.
FAN FORCED
Multi-level fan forced cooking circulates heat from a fan element around the fan
throughout the oven. This function is particularly good for multi-shelf cooking,
batch baking or cooking several dishes together. Use FAN FORCED for casseroles
and baked vegetables, as you can place them anywhere in the oven except on
the oven floor.
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.
WARNING!
Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts will become hot when in use. Keep children away
and take care. Do not touch heating elements inside the oven.
Failure to do so could result in burns or scalds.

16
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. To use the grill, select
GRILL or ECO GRILL using the function knob. Set the required heat using the
temperature knob. The hottest temperature is achieved at HI. We recommend
you use this temperature to grill meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
Place food on the grill/roast rack and/or grill/roast grid and sit this in the grill/
roast pan or roasting dish.
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. When
using ECO GRILL, place your food in the middle of the grill rack.
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 liner. With baked products you will achieve a
better result if the oven is preheated first. Cooking one shelf of food at a time is
preferable. Use FAN FORCED for multi-shelf baking.
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..
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 OFF position as no heat is required. Defrosting this way is
particularly good for delicate foods. When defrosting remove food from the
oven as soon as the food is thawed.
Important!
Do not place anything, including aluminium foil or dishes, on the bottom of the oven. This
will cause a build-up of heat, which will result in irreversible damage to the enamel.
