The Cooking Modes in your Oven
Your new cooker is equipped with a number of different cooking modes:
Conventional Heating (Top Oven)
- with upper and lower heat. This system is particularly suitable for
roasting and baking on one shelf only.
Variable Grilling (Top Oven)
- the oven can also be used for conventional grilling with a full or
half width fully controllable grill.
Note: The Top Oven door should be open when grilling.
Fan Oven (Main Oven)
- the fan oven operates by constantly blowing heated air, from an
element wrapped around the fan, into the oven. This gives improved
efficiency and in general, enables the use of lower temperatures
for cooking. It also means that there is less need to be particular
about shelf positions and that you can bake at more than one level
simultaneously (Batch Baking).
Traditional (Main Oven)
- the upper and rear heating elements are switched on in this
position. The traditional oven brings an outstanding level of
temperature distribution and reduced consumption. In traditional
cooking use only one rack to ensure good heat distribution. By using
the various shelf positions available you can balance the quantity of
heat between the upper and lower part. If cooking requires more
heat from below or above, use the lower or higher shelves respectively.
Roast Meat (Main Oven)
- specially created for cooking joints of meat. This mode raises the
temperature in the oven to a very high heat for the first part of the
cooking cycle, to seal the outside of the joint and retain the juices
of the meat throughout cooking. After this the temperature is
reduced to the set temperature using each heating element in turn
to guarantee a homogeneous temperature for the cooking period. A
temperature is suggested on this mode but this can be altered
using the '+/-' control knob.
Roast Chicken (Main Oven)
- specially created for cooking excellent roast poultry. This mode
can be used to roast chickens, duck, turkey and other poultry to
perfection. Each heating element is used in the cycle to guarantee a
homogeneous temperature within the oven. A temperature is
suggested on this mode but this can be altered using the '+/-'
control knob.

The Cooking Modes in your Oven
10
Fish (Main Oven)
- this mode provides gently pulsing top and rear heat to lightly
poach fish dishes without overcooking or drying out. A temperature
is suggested on this mode but this can be altered using the '+/-'
control knob.
Rising (Main Oven) - Models D 89 / DQ89 only.
- this mode heats and holds the oven at 40˚C. It is ideal for proving
bread and yeast based dough mixtures. When this mode is selected
a cooking duration of 14 minutes is automatically set, this can be
altered by pressing the 'time/mode' button until the cooking
duration icon flashes. Then use the '+/-' control knob to adjust the
cooking duration.
Bread cycle - Auto
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour. When this mode
is selected the time and temperature cannot be adjusted.
It is suitable for baking bread weighing up to 1.5kg, either in a tin or
on a baking tray.
This mode includes a proving cycle and a baking cycle. If an initial
proving cycle is needed this can be done using the RISE mode (8).
Some recipe ideas are included in the recipe book supplied with the
cooker.
Cake cycle - Auto
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour. When this mode
is selected the time and temperature cannot be adjusted.
it is suitable for baking sponge based cakes that take between 30
minutes and 1 hour to cook.
Some recipe ideas are included in the recipe book supplied with the
cooker.
Lower Temperature (Main Oven) - Model AHP67 only.
- this mode heats and holds the oven at 65˚C. It is ideal for proving
bread and yeast based dough mixtures. It also can be used for
warming plates and for keeping food warm that has already been
cooked. When this mode is selected a cooking duration of 14
minutes is automatically set, this can be altered by pressing the
'time/mode' button until the cooking duration icon flashes. Then
use the '+/-' control knob to adjust the cooking duration.

When you first switch on the appliance you will be prompted to set the ‘Time of Day’ on
the display. You must ensure you have done this before attempting to use the
automatic cooking feature.
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
- Select food which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
- To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end
time so the food is ready when you require it.
- Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the
oven.
- Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool
as possible.
- If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for
automatic cooking, keep the delay time to a minimum.
- Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delayed start cooking as it
could cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the
food.
- We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry and meat, eg.
shepherds pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.
- Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial
growth in food.
- Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period,
so it is best to add these ingredients just before serving.
- Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in
water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the
oven.
- Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
- Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the
loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
- Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before
serving.
- Only reheat food once.

Solarplus Grill
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use
- children should be kept away.
GRILLING SHOULD NOT B UND RTAK N WITH TH TOP OV N/GRILL DOOR CLOS D
- This will cause overheating.
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The
solarplus grill is designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker
because it takes less time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills
require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but
for normal grilling the solarplus grill can be used from cold without any
pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved
by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute.
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh.
This stops you from touching live parts.
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh
as this could damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is
on cause an electric shock.
During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it
while the grill is still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and
wait until it has cooled down before cleaning.
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO
NOT store the grill pan handle on the grill pan grid when the grill pan
runners are on the top runner position.
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the
right. You can choose to have both sides on or just the left side on.
Turning the control knob clockwise, will switch both sides on. Turning
it anti-clockwise, will only switch the left side on.
The numbers which are displayed indicate the heat setting:
Number 4is the hottest and number 1the coolest.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the Off
position, ‘O’.
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.
2. Position the rod shelf as recommended, in the chart (next page),
for the food being cooked.
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned
centrally under the element.
4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause
overheating of fat in the grill pan.
To operate the grill
proceed as follows:

Top Oven – Conventional Cooking
1
WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be affected by heat
into the oven.
The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the
grill element and the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal
for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts of meat in casseroles etc. but
can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb).
The operation of the controls is covered on page .
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning (pages
18 and 19).
The top oven can be used either independently to cook small
quantities of food or in conjunction with the main oven to provide
additional cooking space.
●The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner
from the bottom.
●Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top
oven light will come on and wait for the Preheat Temperature
Indicator to go off, indicating that the oven has reached the
right temperature.
●The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the
shelf with a gap of at least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill
element. This should avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
●Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the oven.
To use the oven
proceed as follows:
Plate warming
in the top oven
25mm (1 in)
Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated
when the main oven is in use.
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being
cooked on the hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf
using the bottom runner and turn the top oven control to
approximately 100˚C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is
required to heat the plates and dishes.
N V R operate the grill control when using the top oven for
cooking or warming plates and dishes.

Main Oven – The Intelligent Cooking System
The main oven of your new cooker is equipped with an intelligent
electronic cooking system that gives you additional cooking
performance, flexibility and features over traditional cooking products.
The operation of the controls is covered on page 8.
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning (pages
21 to 23).
The intelligent cooking system will automatically suggest a suitable
cooking temperature for several cooking modes. It is possible
however to modify the suggested temperature within a range
specific to each cooking mode.
