B- Using the appliance for the first time
After installation remove all notification labels (not identification or warning labels) and packaging
materials. After cleaning make sure cleaned surfaces are thoroughly rinsed and wiped dry using a
clean, soft cloth.
NOTE: oven will not operate unless time clock is set
The clock will require setting when you first turn on the power (or following a power failure).
At the power on the timer shows the clock flashing and is increased by one unit every minute.
The oven does not work and need to adjust the time.
Burning in
Before cooking in the appliance an initial pre-heating is required to burn off the fine oil film used to
protect the elements for shipping. The first time you heat up the oven (or grill) the oil will be given
off as smoke, which is perfectly normal.
Select a cooking mode and set the oven temperature to 180°C. With the oven door closed, leave
for approximately 5 minutes.
Repeat the above step for each cooking mode.
After completing the above make sure all controls are turned off. The oven is now ready for
cooking and grilling.
NOTE:
On oven start up or possibly at other times, due to electricity supply deviations – the
programmer may freeze on a function – if this occurs we recommend that, after checking
other solutions without success, it is recommended that power supply be disconnected to
the appliance and allow it to be in this position for some minutes before reconnecting.
This may have a result of clearing the frozen position allowing you to reset the
programmer for normal operation.
Cooling Fan
The Ovens are provided with a cooling fan motor to reduce the heat around the oven. The fan
motor is activated, independently from oven temperature, at the start of cooking program.
When you end the cooking program, a period of observation starts, during which the cooling fan
is kept on if the temperature is over 50°C
This safeguards both the oven and the adjoining cupboards from the possibility of temperature
damage.

8
Safety Thermostat
Your oven is fitted with an over temperature sensor that will automatically shut down your oven
for a period if it is deemed to be overheating- this sensor is fitted to the rear wall of the oven,
inside the outer case – it will only activate in extreme circumstances and is provided as protection
to the appliance and the adjoining furnishings. If activated it will shut down the appliance for a
short time and will automatically reset allowing normal operations – you should consult your
service technician if the problem re-occurs.
TOUCH-CONTROL KEYS
The “touch-control” keys shell be operated by the fingers ( just touching the key ).
When using touch controls it is best to use the ball of your finger rather than the tip.

USING THE LOWER CAVITY- COOKING FUNCTIONS IN BOTTOM OVEN
To select the lower cavity of the oven press simultaneously “+” and “-“ button of the timer function
regulation, till the clock programmer display will show in alternative mode the notice “bot”.
Turn the oven as indicated in the “switching the oven ON/OFF” chapter. Select the oven function
and temperature as indicated in the chapter COOKING MODE AND INCTRUCTIONS “
PREHEATING
Preheating the oven is not essential, but you will achieve better results if you do. Some foods,
particularly cakes and pastry, are better cooked in a preheated oven. Other foods, for example
casseroles, cook just as well when cooked in a non-preheated oven but may need longer cooking
times.
For faster preheating select pizza mode and the required temperature and once the oven has
reached the required level change to cooking mode/function for the task.
To preheat the oven:
1- Set the mode required for preheating.
2- Set the oven to the desired temperature.

WARNING
When using an alternative cooking mode for fast preheat, be sure to turn the cooking mode to
your required setting before placing food in the oven.
HINT:
To allow for heat loss while placing food into the oven, preheat the oven 10-20°C higher and then
reduce the temperature to your required cooking temperature.
Always preheat the oven when cooking multiple dishes at the same time.

DEFROST
All foods may be defrosted using the Fan Forced Convection mode. It is important to note
that this function active the fan motor and the light only, but it is possible to adjust the
temp between 40°C to 60°C after the program started .
As a general guide, the defrosting time for meat is approximately 15-20 minutes per
kilogram.
PIZZA
This function is also excellent as the fastest oven pre heat, engaging maximum power to heat the
oven to a selected temperature before selecting an appropriate function and temperature for a
task.
In this position the fan and fan element together with the under oven element are engaged
simultaneously. This is used for food that requires a concentration of cooking to the base, and
allows the top to gently cook at the same time.
For best results for pizza and similar items we recommend this function and may be combined
with our optional pizza stone for perfect outcomes.

18
CONVENTIONAL OVEN
In this traditional mode, oven heat is provided from the top and under the oven compartment and
is most suitable when cooking on a single shelf. For best results, arrange the shelves so the top
of the food is near the centre of the oven.
If cooking on more than one shelf, always preheat the oven and position the pans to allow as
much free circulation of heat as possible.
Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray position during cooking.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select Conventional Oven mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
HINT:
If water is used in your cooking (such as water placed in a baking dish) the water will evaporate in
the oven in the form of steam. The level of condensation will be reduced when cooking in fan
oven mode where excess moisture is circulated and evaporates during the cooking cycle.
NOTE:
Stand clear of the oven when opening the oven door as steam may escape rapidly
VERY LOW BAKE
This function must be used in conjunction with the thermostat. Set the temperature between 50°C
to 120°C. The door must remain closed
FAN ASSIST
This style of cooking provides traditional cooking heating from top and bottom elements with the
assistance of a circulation fan to ensure fast even results. This mode is most suitable for delicate
cooking such as cakes, pastries, gateaux, biscuits and yeast dough. Best results when
thermostat is set to 150-180 degrees – depending on recipe.

19
HIGH BAKE
The HIGH BAKE mode uses the oven fan to circulate air with heat from the under oven element.
Quick and consistent heat is evenly distributed throughout the oven.
The results are quick, not unlike a microwave oven. With the circulation of heat, foods cooked
with high bake mode retain a crisp, dry texture on the outside especially pizza, pastry and other
foods where you want the base to be well cooked. HIGH BAKE is also excellent for re-heating.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select HIGH BAKE mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
FAN FORCED CONVECTION – most commonly used function
In this mode the oven fan circulates heat from behind the fan cover to give a more even
temperature throughout the oven. The even heat provides similar cooking results for each portion
of food. Although temperatures for cooking foods in this type of oven are generally the same as
required by a conventional oven, when cooking foods that require lengthy cooking cycles a fan
forced oven normally cooks more quickly, saving time and energy.
Always place the food as near to the centre of the oven as possible. If cooking on more than one
level, arrange the pan positions to allow for free circulation of heat.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select FAN OVEN mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When the cooking is complete turn the oven off.
HINT:
Always preheat the oven when cooking on multiple shelves at the same time.
Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray positions during cooking.

20
FAN GRILL
NOTE: Door must be closed in Fan Grill Mode
Fan grilling is a combination of direct heat and circulated hot air which gives the appearance and
flavor similar to rotisserie cooking which is ideal for single level roasts. Direct infrared heat from
the grill element is circulated by the fan to cook the food, which should be positioned as near to
the centre of the oven as possible.
For best cooking results, it is recommended that food be turned once only.
1- Oven door must be closed in Fan grill mode.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied (ensure grill rack is inverted to the high position
to allow best circulation of air) as close to the centre of the oven as possible.
3- Select FAN GRILL mode.
4- Set the oven to the desired temperature. (see note below and refer to FAN GRILL
temperature guide).
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
NOTE:
Large grill pans or roasting dishes can restrict the circulation of air in the oven. To prevent
moisture condensing in the cooler lower sections of the oven, preheat the oven for approximately
10 minutes, using CONVENTIONAL OVEN or HIGH BAKE modes, prior to fan grilling.
NOTE: The temperature setting in FAN GRILL mode must not exceed 200°C.

FULL GRILL & HALF GRILL
This mode of cooking uses infrared heat from the top of the oven to cook foods to your
requirements. Half grill engages only the inner band of the top element and is suitable for smaller
volumes and has a consequently lower energy usage.
This method of grilling in the oven is recommended for short duration (5 minutes or less)
grilling only, which is ideal for toasting (see note below). Foods with higher fat content or
foods, which require more than 5 minutes grilling time, should be grilled using the FAN
GRILL mode.
When in GRILL mode the oven door should be closed. If the door is not closed, over time
discoloration to the control panel may occur.
1- Commence grilling from a cold oven whenever possible.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied.
3- Position the shelf to your preference.
4- Select GRILL mode and, turn to your desired heat setting.
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
NOTE:
The grill element is controlled by the oven thermostat. Once the temperature in the oven has
reached the selected temperature the element will switch off, and then on again, when more heat
is required.
NOTE: The temperature setting in FULL GRILL & HALF GRILL
mode must not exceed 200°C.
