Using the oven
Please note: When using for the first time the oven may smell for a short time while
burning off dust and manufacturing residues from the heating elements. This is
normal and does not indicate a fault with the oven.
The oven is fan assisted and evenly distributes the heat throughout the oven. This may
reduce the cooking times compared with a conventional oven so always read the cooking
instructions on the packaging when cooking convenience food.
It is recommended to preheat the oven for a few minutes or wait until the temperature
indicator goes off before placing food in the oven for cooking.
Be careful when using aluminium foil. Do not cover the sides of the oven, the shelf or oven
interior. If wrapping food in foil the cooking time may increase.
Main oven controls
The thermostat determines the temperature inside the
oven during cooking. Turn the control knob clockwise
to align the cooking temperature with the marker on
the control panel. The temperature indicator will light
up when a temperature is set, and turn off when the
temperature has been reached. During cooking the
thermostat will maintain the set temperature.
The temperature can be set between 50°C and
250°C. To turn the oven off, the knob must be turned
to “0”. There are 4 function settings for the main oven.
Turn the control selector so that the symbol on the
selector aligns with the marker on the control panel:

Electronic programmer
The electronic programmer incorporates the
following functions:
- 24 hour clock with luminous display
- 10 hour timer
- automatic oven cooking
- semiautomatic oven cooking
The electronic programmer operate only
on the “large” oven.
Programming buttons and their functions.
Luminous symbols
When “AUTO” blinks, this means that the timer is in “automatic” mode but no setting has yet
been made.
When “AUTO” remains permanently alight, this means that the timer is in “automatic” mode
and already programmed
If there is no symbol alight other than the digits of the clock, this means that the timer is in
“manual” mode.
The timer incorporates a digital electronic clock with luminous numbers indicating the hours
and minutes. When the appliance is first connected to the a.c. supply, or following a power
cut, three zeroes will blink in the timer window. To set the clock, press and hold the two
buttons and together, and use the or symbol to select the exact time. The longer the
increase or decrease button is held, the faster the numbers will scroll. If convenient, the clock
can be turned back to 00.00:
to scroll back further at this point, release all the buttons and repeat the sequence, pressing
and holding the decrease button until the time appears in the display.
Normal cooking without using the timer
To operate the oven in manual mode — in other words without using the timer — the blinking
“AUTO” indicator must be deactivated by pressing the button.

Automatic cooking (programmed start and stop times)
To cook food in the oven using the automatic timer, proceed as follows:
- establish how long the food needs to cook
- enter the cooking stop time
- select the temperature and the cooking method.
Once these steps have been completed, the “AUTO” indicator will light up permanently in
the display, confirming that the oven has been programmed.
Practical example: we want to cook food for a period of 30 minutes, ending at 14.00.
- Pressing and holding , enter 0.30 in the display.
- Pressing and holding , enter 14.00 in the display.
This done, the display will revert to the current time and “AUTO” reappears, confirming that
the settings have been acknowledged and memorized. At 13.30 (14.00 minus 30 minutes)
the oven switches on automatically and the symbols and
AUTO” will appear for as long as cooking continues. The oven will then switch off
automatically at 14.00, triggering a beep that can be silenced by pressing .
Semiautomatic cooking
A. Programming the duration
B. Programming the stop time.
A) Select the duration for which the food is to cook by pressing . The oven will switch on
immediately, with the symbols “AUTO” and showing in the display.
Once the set duration has elapsed, cooking will stop and the beep sounds intermittently.
Silence the beep as indicated above.
B) Set the time for cooking to stop, by pressing . The oven will switch on immediately, with
the symbols “AUTO” and . showing in the display. When the set time comes around,
cooking will stop and the beep sounds intermittently. Silence the beep as indicated above.
Current programming status can be displayed at any given moment by pressing
the corresponding button.
It is also possible to cancel the current selection at any moment by pressing and resetting
the display to zero. Pressing at this point, the programmer will revert to manual mode.
CAUTION: if the oven is disconnected from the power supply, or in the event of a
power failure, the clock resets to zero and all programming will be lost. When power is
restored, three zeroes appear.

Using the grill
KEEP THE DOOR OPEN WHILST GRILLING
Move the shelf to the first or second position from the top.
Select the symbol on the top oven control selector, and preheat the grill for 5 minutes.
Place the food in the middle of the grill pan and position the pan so the food is near but not
touching the top element.
Do not line the grill pan with aluminium foil or wrap food items with foil before placing under
the grill.
Aluminium foil has a high reflectivity which can damage grill elements.
When fitting the handle, hook the handle over the edge of the grill pan and through the wire
rack at a central point along the grill pan edge, (Figure 9). Lower the handle fully down to fit.
THE GRILL SHOULD ONLY BE USED FOR A MAXIMUM OF 30 MINUTES

Cleaning the oven
Before cleaning the oven, wait for it to cool down.
It is best to clean the bottom of the oven after every use and not allow the food or spots of oil
to remain and become permanent stains.
Wash surfaces in warm soapy water. For stubborn marks on glass surfaces, a mild cream
cleaner can be used. Dry parts with a soft cloth.
For the interior surfaces in the oven use normal oven cleaners but always read the
manufacturer’s instructions on how to use them.
Do not use caustic paste, abrasive wire, powders or hard instruments to clean any part of
the appliance.
Cleaning the glass doors
Ensure the oven doors are cool before cleaning. Removal of a door makes it easier to clean
the door, the door surround and the seals.
To remove a door proceed as follows:
1. Open the door fully.
2. Raise one hinge clip and rotate it towards you as far as the stop (Figure 10). Repeat the
procedure with the second hinge clip on the other side of the door.
3. Raise the door gently until it comes to rest against the hinge clips.
4. Grip the edges of the door and lift the door clear of the catches in the hinge openings.
5. When cleaning the door, take care not to move the clips from their position.
6. Once cleaning is complete, lift the door and slide the hinges into the hinge openings.
7. Engage the slots on the hinges with the catches in the hinge openings.
8. Check that the weight of the door is fully supported on the hinges.
9. Lower the door and raise the hinge clips, then return them away from you and back to their
starting positions.
10. Check that the seal is in place then close the door. Make sure that the inner face of the
door meets and shuts against the seal all around.

Changing the lamps
Wait for the oven to cool.
Unscrew and remove the diffuser. Unscrew the lamp from the lampholder. Replace lamp and
diffuser (Figure 11).
The replacement lamp must be of the same type, voltage and wattage (25W SES 300°C).
Mains lead replacement
Do not attempt to repair or replace the mains connecting cable yourself, consult a
qualified electrician.
For best cooking results
Grill
Even cooking:
• Ensure that the grill pan is positioned centrally below the grill element.
Fat splattering:
To avoid fat splattering onto the oven interior
• Ensure that the grill pan is not lined with foil
General Baking
Uneven rising of cakes:
• Oven shelf is not level.
Prevent sinking of cakes:
• Preheating of fan ovens – not always necessary
• Cooking at too high a temperature – reduce temperature by 25°C for fan cooking.
• When using soft margarine use an all in one method instead of the traditional creaming of
the margarine and sugar. when using a food mixer or processor do not over cream soft
margarine.
Over/undercooking:
• Reduce or increase cooking times or temperatures to suit personal taste.
