The Cooking Systems in your Double Oven
Your new oven is equipped with
three different cooking systems:
1. Conventional Heating
(Top Oven) - with upper and
lower heat. This system is
particularly suitable for roasting
and baking on one shelf only.
2. Grilling (Top Oven) - Has a full
width, fully controllable grill. The
grill also has an economy setting
which enables you to use just the
left section.
NOT : The oven door should
be open when grilling.
( ee page 17.)
3. Fan Cooking (Lower 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).
It should be noted that at the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of
steam when the oven door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a
perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.

Oven Timer Operation
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Top Oven and Main Oven can be controlled by the automatic timer. When the
timer control has been set for one oven, it is possible to use the other oven only
during the same automatic cooking programme.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. elect foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time
so the food is ready when you require it.
3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.
4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as
possible.
5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for auto
cooking, keep the delay start time to a minimum.
6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could
cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.
7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g.
hepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.
8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial
growth in food.
9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it
is best to add these ingredients just before serving.
10. 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.
11. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
12. 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.
13. Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.
14. Only reheat food once.
Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the ovens
can be used.
N V R operate the grill when the ovens are set to cook automatically
because the oven cavity can become warm and this may cause
bacterial growth in food.

The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food. The oven is
designed so that the grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this is
combined with a heating element situated underneath the floor of the oven. To
ensure even cooking of the food it is important that cooking utensils are
positioned correctly on the oven shelf so that the element is directly above. As a
guide, the front of the utensil should be approx.100mm (4”) from the front of
the shelf.
SH LF POSITIONING
There should always be at least 25mm (1 inch) between the top of the food and
the grill element.

on Model) using control (B) (see Top Oven Temperature Charts).
The pilot light ( ● ) will immediately come on, and remain on until the oven
reaches the required temperature. The light will then automatically go off
and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct
temperature.
Step 4 Place the food centrally on the shelf below the element ensuring the oven
door is closed.
PLAT WARMING
Place the plates/dishes on shelf position 1 from the base of the top oven, and turn
top oven temperature control (B) to 100˚C for 10-15 minutes.
